trueimagecmd hangs, unkillable

Thread needs solution

The latest opensuse kernel patches have broken trueimage again.

kernel-desktop-2.6.34.7-0.3.1.x86_64 (openSuse 11.3)
dkms-2.1.1.2-1.noarch
snapapi26, 0.7.47, 2.6.34.7-0.3-desktop, x86_64: installed
TrueImageServer9.1.3883_s_en.i68 (yeah it's old)

I am able to build and install the modules no problem, and they load fine

However if I try to run trueimagecmd for anything at all (such as "--list"), the process hangs and cannot be killed without rebooting. From what I have been able to gather, it appears that the snapapi kernel modules are hanging.

This worked fine just a little while ago. There is something about recent kernel patches that caused it stop working.

Is there a more recent version of snapapi?

Is there a permanent link to the most recent version?

Thanks

I did a fresh build on another opensuse 11.3 system

It's still broken

Where do I get a new version of snapapi to test with?

I found a more recent snapapi and was able to resolve my problem despite the lack of assistance
