Is this with the new bsdsocket emulation? This happens on all recent 2.4
kernels on my systems (almost Debian 3.1 on x86 and PPC). I have had reports
from other people though that it works on their 2.4.x machines, however.
There's something I've been meaning to try and not had time yet. I have a
feeling that this problem may be related to nptl stuff in glibc.
Try defining the ASSUME_KERNEL env variable before running UAE. E.g. try
something like
export ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.6
Why 2.4.6? Don't know - just guessing. Pick any other low-ish 2.4.x version
number. ;-)

That archive works fine here: Debian/unstable with a 2.6.7 kernel and glibc
2.3.2. What happens on your system?
You do know that needs a special version of bsdsocket.library installed in
LIBS: to use the old bsdsocket emulation (the new one doesn't need this,
which is the whole point of the new code - if only it worked on more
systems).
Get the latest version here:
