Hey! How about emerging gcc while NOT being in KDE or even X?
You should also check that there is plenty of space on the partition where /var resides. On 28/03/07, Grant Edwards <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I've also seen problems like that caused by a bad sector in a swap partition and a bad disk controller card/cable. Since it's a laptop, another possibility is overheating due to faulty fan-speed control. IMO, there's a 95% or better chance it's a hardware problem. RAM is the easiest to test (and the easiest to fix), so start there. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow! Is a tattoo at real, like a curb or a visi.com battleship?
