Details below. -David -------------------------------- % uname -a Linux foo.fake.com 2.4.5 #17 Sun Oct 14 14:37:44 CDT 2001 i686 unknown % cat /etc/redhat-release Linux Mandrake release 8.0 (Traktopel) for i586 % ls -l /sbin/mingetty -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 8444 Sep 5 2000 /sbin/mingetty % ldd /sbin/mingetty libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40023000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000) % md5sum /sbin/mingetty 431588ae133aab9534b044ddf4e066da /sbin/mingetty % rpm -qf /sbin/mingetty mingetty-0.9.4-14mdk % rpm -qi mingetty-0.9.4-14mdk Name : mingetty Relocations: (not relocateable) Version : 0.9.4 Vendor: MandrakeSoft Release : 14mdk Build Date: Tue 05 Sep 2000 04:56:59 AM CDT Install date: Fri 07 Sep 2001 04:31:49 PM CDT Build Host: ke.mandrakesoft.com Group : System/Base Source RPM: mingetty-0.9.4-14mdk.src.rpm Size : 35137 License: GPL Packager : Etienne Faure <etienne () mandrakesoft com> Summary : A compact getty program for virtual consoles only.
