I've just accidentally started gdb and being caught by the `usual' panic. But i've been rather surprised, remembering back, that gdb actually *worked* 10 minutes ago on the same binary! (I'm typing the ``gdb foo'' command blindly without thinking as soon as i've been seeing something like ``Segmentation fault (core dumped).'', so did i in this case.) I also noticed (this was with a 950210-SNAP kernel) that the fsck -p did not complain about any inconsistencies in the file system other than the statistics, but it *silently* truncated my files to zero length. Sounds like a bug to me. (Previously i remember that i've seen something like ``Incorrect block count, 4 should be 0 (fixed)'' in this case, which was a clear signal to not trust the files.) -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
