You'r right I did some more testing and emacs was a false alarm. It turns out that the offender is the tcpd wrapper that debian has in inetd.conf. In the default configuration doing a telnet,finger or talk puts the system in this "funny" state. Removing the wrapper and everything is fine. I also found out that the man command get segmentation faults after tcpd has run. So to sum it up "man ls" and "dpkg --configure" both works OK before the first run of /usr/sbin/tcpd from debian (potato). After that they alwas get segmentation fault. I think this is a good enough test however I don't even have a theory on why it's happening. -- Kenneth Johansson Ericsson Business Innovation AB Tel: +46 8 404 71 83 Vider?gatan 3 Fax: +46 8 404 72 72 164 80 Stockholm kenneth.johansson at inn.ericsson.se ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
