I apologise for my late response but i was quite busy and the about what happend in the Us i couldn't get myself on the PC to solve my little problem. But today I thought it's time to do so. I found out that I have multiple problems that seemed to have appeared suddenly. It's the fetchmai problem describe in the original thread then I found out that dictd is not starting (not even by hand) and today I cannot start x as a user (works fine as root).
Any hints what could have happend? Hardware? Any tools that might help me to find out whats wrong? i am very thankfull fo rany help, Frank
