No, not really. I'm on vacation and trying to avoid computers as much as
possible. :-)

I'm running Debian Sid, usually updated daily. A home built 2.4.26 (from
the debian packages) and debian arla packages. Seems to be working for
me.

Any backtrace on where it is segfaulting?

/torkel.
PS. I just filed a bug against makedev in debian to add nnpfs.
