Darn, I knew I spoke too soon. I had the machine running fine on the new kernel. Until I restarted her, and upon restart she says fsck.ext3 exited with error 7. (bus error). She has done it before and I cannot figure out why. I checked the logs and she shutdown the same as every other time. Anybody heard of this happening to anybody other than me?

I found that editing the makefile in the tld of the kernel code tree and changing the two references of gcc to gcc3 works well. And just deleting the gcc file and replacing it with a symlink to gcc3 also works but that messes up the rpm system thing a bit. I have had the machine up for a day so far with linux-2.4.18 compiled under gcc3, and no crash yet. I am still using gnome, for now as a matter of elimination though. If it crashes again I will go to KDE3, (and start a lot of flaming :-). Regards, and thanks for your help again.
