    Well I've tried the Debian version, and it works. Then I've tried
again the original version and (surprise) it works. (The same build
script as the one posted earlier.) (The source codes are the same,
except that the Debian one does not include binary files for the bios,
etc.)

    After thinking for a while, I think I've figured the problem: on
Friday I've rebuilt my kernel. Until then it was a hand built x86_64
with the old Debian 32 bit user space, but on Friday I've switched
back to the 32 bit kernel, but didn't reboot my laptop until tonight.

    But still one problem: when compiling statically (--static flag to
configure), it gives "undefined reference" errors. They are related
with SDL, and gnutls. But as these are related with UI, I could
compile them out. One question though: the other features can be build
statically?

    Thanks, and sorry for the mistake,
    Ciprian Craciun.
