AWK is generally the sound the Black Cockatoos make - have you checked to see if a large Black Cockatoo has infiltrated your computer? It's none here in New South Wales that Black Cockatoos have a liking for linux machines - and hence, sometimes sneak inside and tamper with the kernel - you can't HEAR them, but the kernel will resound their might "AWK" instead. OK - BAD JOKE. Have you double checked to see if you have run "ldconfig" and rebuilt your lib path cache? As well, you might want to check out your /etc/ld.so.conf file and make sure that it has the proper lib paths set; here's mine for example: /usr/lib /usr/local/lib /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/lib/qt3/lib /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.0.0/post /usr/lib/wine /usr/lib/mozilla-1.3 /usr/local/netscape /usr/lib/evolution/1.3 /usr/lib/kde3 /usr/java/lib (Of course, mine's been modified - I've specifically forced directories to be searched) - but if you do modify this file, you have to run "ldconfig" in a term to rebuild the system lib path cache. Another thing to look through is your boot up log (you can view it with the command: dmesg | more) Might even be a good idea to POST the outcome of the "dmesg" log - either by locating it in the /var/log directory, or formatting it like: dmesg | col -b > dmesg.log ...and then sending it to the group...ya reckon? -- Sun Jun 1 07:30:01 EST 2003 07:30:01 up 1 day, 16:39, 3 users, load average: 0.09, 0.19, 0.18 ----------------------------------------------------------------- | __ __ |kuhn media australia | | /-oo /| |'-. |http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' |stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ----------------------------------------------------------------- linux user #:267497 linux machine #:194239 * MDK 9.1 & RH 7.3 Mandrake Linux Kernel 2.4.21-11mdk Cooker for i586 ----------------------------------------------------------------- * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * One should always be in love.
