[Bug 1579351] Re: /proc/sys/abi/ldt16 does not exist
Hi,
thanks for your response!
I tested
linux-image-4.6.0-040600rc7-generic_4.6.0-040600rc7.201605120803_amd64
=> it also lacks /proc/sys/abi/ldt16.
** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
Status: Incomplete => Confirmed
** Tags added: kernel-bug-exists-upstream
** Description changed:
Hi,
I guess I stumbled upon a VERY old problem;
I can't make some of my windows-programs work, despite they have a gold
rating in wine.
Some old Windows binaries that include 16-Bit Code need the kernel to
have echo 1 >> /proc/sys/abi/ldt16 enabled, but that pseudo-file does
not exist on my 16.04 Ubuntu system.
root@Johnnyfive:~# echo 1 >> /proc/sys/abi/ldt16
-bash: /proc/sys/abi/ldt16: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
root@Johnnyfive:~# ls /proc/sys/abi/
