Hello list! First of all thanks for the linux-abi. I`m trying to migrate an application running on a SCO Openserver 5.06 writen in Mumps, some kind of computer language and database at the same time. This software is some kind of old era ERP. I`ve tried under various systems and kernels, including FreeBSD, OpenBSD (using the ibcs compatibility modules), Linux 2.4+abi and Linux 2.6+abi. I`ve managed to run the installer and the binaries in certain versions of Linux 2.4 and their respective patches. The other kernels/systems, including 2.6, just segfaults. Althought the systems seems to run, there are many problems: 1- The keyboard input is mad. I even loaded the SCO.map located on the PROD.Patches but no success. When the systems loads his curses-like interface, the text fields in the forms don`t accept any input but then they are filled with other characters like "C" and ">". Is this a common problem? 2-System load is always at 100%. From what I know, this system is running fine on a 500 mhz Celeron SCO Openserver and I`m testing this on a Celeron 1.7 ghz. Is this tremendous overhead expected? I thought the performance impact would be something like 2 or 4%. 3-The system seems kinda unstable. Even if I could fix the problems, is linux-abi ready for a production environment? I would appreciate any answers and insights. I worked hard to get beaten by a user interface. It would be like swin through the ocean and die on the beach. Thanks! |
