Thanks joe, I did try as you suggested but It did not fix the problem.
Moreover I think that something is broken in the kernel. Look at this

eppesuig3:/usr/src/linux-2.4-benh# grep -r IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET .
./drivers/macintosh/nvram.c:    case IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET: {
eppesuig3:/usr/src/linux-2.4-benh# 

Anyway thanks,
Giuseppe
