I've noticed that strange problems tend to arise after upgrading gcc/glibc. I expect it's glibc itself to blame, breaking all those dynamically linked apps. This past time, my first indication of a problem was when "play" (part of sox) kept looping sounds instead of just playing them. One 'emerge -e world' later, and it's back to normal and I haven't had any other problems. But who knows what other problems were lurking in the wings. -- Caution: Product will be hot after heating -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
