I still don't quite understand > this, maybe it's na ubuntu problem? one thing.. have u tried reporduce this on a DIFFERENT piece of hardware? and what about a different distribution? (you seem to like installing different distros) ? your bug is entirely weird. it makes very little sense - beyond ther ebeing memory corruption. now i cannot see HOw it manages to currupt there - thats the thing. not in the c code. it may - its theoretically possible i have missed something. but... what about a different distribution and different piece of hardware (another machine)? - wild though it may be - i might suspect your hardware (memory or cpu - maybe overclokcing?)?????? it's a stab in the dark - but i'm clutching at straws now. > Cheers > Jochen > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > SF.Net email is sponsored by: > Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.
