I was trying to compile the DKB Ray Tracing program that I
got from wuarchive.wustl.edu /graphics/graphics/ray/dbktrace.
I copied the unix.mak and unix.conf to Makefile and config.h
and typed make. Much to my surprise, I didn't get errors
saying that all the C stuff was incompatiable. Instead I
went to watch Star Trek and came back an hour later...and it
was still trying to compile. It had only done 4 files!!!
I wanted to see how long it had been running so I suspened
the job and typed ps. The system stopped. I had this problem
earlier with another program I was compiling. Has anyone
else had problems like this. It really sucks that I can't
develop anything new on the system :(
