Dear All,

I've just updated my fc2 system with the latest php update and although
when you look at phpinfo it shows pcntl support as being enabled it
doesn't seem to work, which unfortunately means it has also broken one
of our applications :-(

I've checked using function_exists and this returns false.

The build date acoring to phpinfo is "Dec 21 2004 10:30:44"
Other php info:
PHP API 20020918
PHP Extension 20020429
Zend Extension 20021010

I'm using the supplied FC packages, nothing customised.

Urgent help needed.

Thanks

Julian

i suddenly realized yesterday that my aiptek HP-12000U tablet is
supported under FC3. gads! i never would have guessed.

so i plugged it in and it sort of works. but, not quite right. the
cursor disappears frequently and it seems to move around randomly when i
start the pen on the tablet. i'm trying to say that i can't judge WHERE
it's going to start it's stroke when i press the pen to the tablet.
this is all in gaim, BTW.

i looked at the log and i see these errors:

Dec 22 21:14:29 junior kernel: usb 1-2.4: new low speed USB device using
address 6
Dec 22 21:14:29 junior kernel: usbhid: probe of 1-2.4:1.0 failed with

sure enough there is an evdev.h file, so i presume it's in the kernel:

/lib/modules/2.6.9-1.681_FC3/build/include/config/input/evdev.h

i get this with a lsusb, so i think that the hid probe fail might be
related:

i'm sort of at a loss as to how to approach this problem, and i'm not
quite sure what the log messages imply.

sure would appreciate your collective wisdom, my friends!
