---------------------------------

    Resolution: Complete

Needs testing, and we need to decide if it's important enough to add to 4.0.

>      Project: squeakland
>         Type: Bug
>   Components: etoys
>     Reporter: Bert Freudenberg
>     Priority: Critical
>      Fix For: etoys 4 and showcase - october 2009
>  Attachments: LowSpaceAndInterruptHandler-3-dtl.1.cs, LowSpaceAndInterruptHandler-4Etoys-M1041-dtl.1.cs
>
>
> Would hopefully be fixed by adopting LowSpaceAndInterruptHandler-3-dtl.1.cs from
> http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=1041
> Need change set that works with the current Etoys image though.
> Discussion from mailing list:
> > > Now, in any case that *should* not cause a hard lockup but for some  
> > > reason on the Linux VM it still did not react to Alt-. to break into  
> > > the loop.

> > There was a fix for this sort of problem in Mantis 1041. The patch

> To follow up on the above, I took a look at an Etoys-dev image, and I am
> fairly sure that Mantis 1041 is the cause of this problem. The necessary
> changes are in the VM, and are in Squeak 3.9 and beyond, but are not in
> Etoys. Unfortunately, just loading the old change set from Mantis did not
> fix it, so maybe there is some bit rot or other inconsistency that I'm not
> spotting at the moment.
