OK, I'm about at the end of my tether with this damn pile of junk.
My previous problems {mentioned in the past} with compiling kernels have
been expended - now I can't compile _anything_.
Something is badly broken, and I don't know what.
I get error 139 when compiling. I think the thing with ncurses
was a furfy. Everything I can find on error 139 points to
1) Bad RAM
2) Bad compiler
3) Bad swap {maybe}
So, I've run memtest. It found some faults on one of my 128 meg DIMM's, so
I pulled it out. Same problem.
So I downgraded the compiler {gcc 2.95.3} to the one from SuSE 7.0
{2.95.2}. Still no joy.
I _completely_ rebuilt my swap - deleted the partition, rebooted,
re-created it, re-formatted it wit bad block checks enabled. Still no joy.
Can _anyone_ give me an idea here of somewhere else to look? Library
files/rpm's maybe? Something else?
I may have applied some update patches to my SuSE 7.2 standard install,
but I don't remember which ones, and from what I can find, I don't _think_
anything I've installed would include libraries {with the exception of
glibc}, but I'm damned if I know.
I'm about to give up, go buy SuSE 8, and hope an upgrade will fix the damn
problem.
