I tried to build XFree86-1.3 on this system. Once I applied all the patches to X11R5, I did the make World >& world.log & and all went really fine. This was until I started to do some other work. After a few ps -ax, df, ls -l and tail World.log the keyboard suddenly hung. The make still continued so I logged in from a terminal and a few hours later after make finished I rebooted and all was well. The problem happened a second time running xterm. Again a reboot fixed it. Any ideas ??? Also I noticed that the serial driver performance is worse than 386bsd-01 + pk2.4. Regards Tibor Sashegyi (cproto@cs.curtin.edu.au)
