But while doing an make install of /usr/ports/x11/gnome, I got a Bus Error while it was busy in /usr/ports/lang/python Every rebuild it failed on the same spot, until I did a make clean in /usr/ports/lang/python then is finisched ok (probably bad object or binary code created?) Now when running Gnome on my Xterminal I got more Bus Errors... My question: What are Bus Errors? and what can cause bus errors? Bad programming, hardware, OS...? Regards, Ron.
