Why is it that SIGSEGV's display more information about the error than a Page Fault (most notably, a Page Fault doesn't give Call Frame Tracebacks). I'm writing a program, and it is generating Page Faults. Due to the lack of information given from this error, it is making it very hard to debug. :( -- Jason Daniels -- bd733 AT rgfn DOT epcc DOT edu ---> BELIEVE THE LIE <--- Linux: The choice of a GNU generation.
