OT: JBoss & Linux Threads

[Holger Rauch <Holger.Rauch@heitec.de>]

Hi!

This is a rather general Linux kernel/glibc issue. In the JBoss
documentation

	http://www.jboss.org/online-manual/HTML/ch10s02.html

I read that Linux allegedly does not support "real threads". My questions
on this issue are:

1. Is that statement correct at all?

2. If its correct, which Linux kernel/glibc version combos *do* support
threads, which don't?

Maybe someone subscribed to this mailing list has already used JBoss on
Linux, is familiar with Linux threads and can enlighten me on this issue?

Thanks a lot in advance for any info!

Greetings,

	Holger
