I'm confused as to the fix for all this now.

Sorry, I've jumped arround more than a little bit. Whatever patches you have now plus the one I added today glibc-$version-tls_assert-1.patch. 2.3.6 should not requrie a patch.

The LFS book installs Glibc-2.3.6. No patches mentioned in the LFS book. Would that version work too as a drop-in replacement for my 2.3.4 and skip this 2.3.5 version we're talking about?

Sure, it _should_ but I've never bothered to jump glibc-versions. I just rebuild too frequently and just use common home dir. I recompiled the existing verision that I had been using. I read that 2.3.6 contains the fix, but have not had a chance to download it and verify. I'm on 56k dialup ATM. Patches exist for both glibc-2.3.4 and 2.3.5 in the patches repo. The other option is to try the LD_PRELOAD method. This seems to have side stepped Alessandro's error messages (and this specific to the nvidia drivers which are known to trigger the bug).
