Hi.
I've downloaded sbcl 0.9.7 and the CVS version of slime (on 15 December 2005), and I can't seem to get it to work. It looks like everything's compiling OK, and then eventually, I get a message (in the *inferior lisp* buffer) like
- ;; Swank started at port: 33165.
NIL
and about 2/3 second later, I get
Process inferior-lisp hangup
and at the bottom, the messsage
"Lisp connection closed unexpectedly: exited abnormally with code 256."
Any thoughts on what could be causing this? (I got the exact same error with the debian testing versions of sbcl and slime, so I tried installing the newest (I removed and dpkg --purge'd the debian packages) versions, but that didn't help.
In the past, this has been caused by a specific Linux kernel interaction. New kernels don't exhibit the problem. A temporary fix is to run sbcl as "nohup sbcl".
