+Q: I am running Linux and ngircd dies on startup with the follwing errors:

+A: epoll is only supported on 2.6 Linux kernels. Either use a 2.6 kernel, or
+   re-run configure with the --without-epoll parameter. After configure
+   completed, you should see select() being listed as IO backend:
+   '(I/O backend: "select()"').
