Maybe some of you would > like to have a look at my zlib patches ;-o This only seemed to help for a while. Again have trouble w/ broken repos. But the strange thing: seems to affect only large ones. For example, could got clone and repeatedly gc --aggressive the git source w/ trouble. If it *is* any hw problem (which isnt that unplausible since that machine is the only one making trouble now), how can I detect it ? Shouldnt broken memory or disk raise some kernel log message ? cu -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weigelt@metux.de mobile: +49 151 27565287 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme ----------------------------------------------------------------------
