Hi

I got the Linux emulation running on FreeBSD 2.2.2-RELEASE.  I have the
shared libraries donw up with ldconfig as described on the web pages at
www.freebsd.org

I am not a Linux guru (or unix guru)

When I try and run the kubl DBMS demo (http://kubl.com/) I get this:

# ./M2
Kubl M2 DBMS 0.96b G14d1 Linux May  6 1997.
Copyright (C) 1994-97 Orri Erling
 Temporary License, exp. 6/10/97
./M2: can't resolve symbol '__errno_location'
#


It appears to me that some sort of library or something is not being
loaded correctly.  The linux ldd onluy shows libc and I have that
installed.

Is this a screwup on my linux emulation or is it a problem that cannot be
resolved?

thanks for some clues to help me learn how this should all work

thanks
Chad
