I updated yesterday and now anything related to gnome starts a memory
leak that i can't seem to stop. I usually use enlightenment and when I
try to open nautilus or evolution this memory leak occurs. It'll keep
sucking memory until the computer crashes. The program I attempted to run
never starts correctly. (For evolution it'll show the splash screen but
none of the components start up, in nautilus it'll begin flashing the
main screen and the wm will begin to beserk) Games and other simpler
gnome programs also start the leak.
Yesterday, right after updating, I looked at gnome and everything worked
fine, now I can't even get into gnome anymore but this could be because
I've done some hard resets when it crashed and further messed up whatever
gnome component is causing the problem.
Another strange thing is that a few of the scripts in the beginning have
problems with syntax errors involing '}'. I haven't messed with any of
these scripts so I don't see why they would have problems. Is there a
way to regenerate the init.d scripts without re-emerging the related
packages??
There are other strange errors at bootup that weren't there before (see
below):
Thanks for the help,
Arlo
