Hello all,

I'm trying to get linuxxdoom to run under FreeBSD 2.1R.  I've
installed the linux_lib-2.0 package (but haven't modified my
kernel, as the description says this is no longer necessary).

I can modload the linux stuff, and it shows up fine when I do a
'modstat'.

When I try to run linuxxdoom, it core dumps before doing anything
at all. 

Is there something special I need to do to let the system know that
it should be reading the linux libraries in /compat/linux/...?

Any ideas?

thanks in advance,

tom
