In my system with the last update of factory (comes from beta 1 the
problem) all applications based on wxGTK (such as audacity or amule)
fail in 32 or 64 bits when I try to save a file.
For example for audacity I got with ddd in 32 bits kde version:

Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
[Switching to Thread 0xb678f6d0 (LWP 16176)]
0xffffe410 in __kernel_vsyscall ()
(gdb) bt
#0  0xffffe410 in __kernel_vsyscall ()
#1  0xb724e835 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6

#3  0xb728b41b in ?? () from /lib/libc.so.6
#4  0x00000000 in ?? ()

For example for amule I got with ddd in 32 bits kde version:

Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
[Switching to Thread 0xb6c76a00 (LWP 16283)]
0xffffe410 in __kernel_vsyscall ()
(gdb)
No source file named 0.0.0.0.
(gdb) bt
#0  0xffffe410 in __kernel_vsyscall ()
#1  0xb773b835 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6
#2  0xb773d121 in abort () from /lib/libc.so.6
#3  0xb777841b in ?? () from /lib/libc.so.6
#4  0x00000000 in ?? ()

Other problem appeared in the 32 bits kde version (updated from 10.2),
is the frequent crash of the rpmdb. This problem not appear in the
same system with the 64 bits version and a fresh install of 10.3 beta
2 X86-64 kde.

I mean that the problem with the rpmdb comes from e file system access
error, derived from a inmature state of the ahci driver for the
SB600/RD580 chipset . For example now I do:

dmesg | grep ahci
ahci 0000:00:12.0: version 3.0
ahci 0000:00:12.0: controller can't do 64bit DMA, forcing 32bit
ahci 0000:00:12.0: controller can't do PMP, turning off CAP_PMP
ahci 0000:00:12.0: AHCI 0001.0100 32 slots 4 ports 3 Gbps 0xf impl SATA mode
ahci 0000:00:12.0: flags: ncq sntf ilck led clo pio slum part
scsi0 : ahci
scsi1 : ahci
scsi2 : ahci
scsi3 : ahci

For installing the the 64 bits kde version I must resizing a partition
for create a new partition. It was very difficult, and the only way
was starting the install process with "safe settings", because the
hard disk controller has restarted from time to time.
