Hello everyone,

I just downloaded the newest kernel at the time (0.99pl10) and
I must say I'm impressed; this time the compiling took only one try,
even with a couple of patches (noblink, selection-1.4) in it.

Naturally I have some problems. The selection 1.4 packet doesn't
work:

I've got a RS-mouse plugged in ttyS1. The test-mouse program works just fine;
the cursor moves and pressing the mouse buttons leaves *'s in the screen.

But stuff.c doesn't give any good results to me. First of all,
I had to insert #include <sys/time.h> in the source as it wouldn't
compile at all without it. Now it gives me a warning about line 39,
(about ioctl() call's arguments I suppose) and running the selection
-program just says:

selection: ioctl(..., TIOCLINUX, ...)

I'm using GCC 2.3.3 with lib 4.3.
