Hi all, I have 4 boxes, all with the same partitioning scheme and using ext4 for all of them. This weird thing has only showed up in one of them. Some time back while playing some video and with xscreensaver active, the timeout for xscreensaver expired and then password was required... Bad thing that xscreensaver corrupted / so that it couldn't be unlocked, and under console there was no way to loging, some misplaced inodes or something... Hard reboot was required, and then at first /tmp was so corrupted that it was necessary a phisical fix... After all that, what happens is that whenever launching xscreensaver-demo, if I had a terminal open then doing cat, or any other thing fails, since no libraries are found... If at that moment I go to console, the message I get is ext4 /dev/sda7 (partition for /) is corrupted with some inode misplacement or similar... Then at that time there's nothing else to do but to hard reset... BTW, when loading xscreensaver-demo from terminal, the 1st thing that shows up is: (xscreensaver-demo:2830): libglade-WARNING **: Could not load support for `gnome': libgnome.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I think that is due exactly for the same thing, that ext4 got corrupted, since by doing cat or any other command shows that libraries are not found or something... Has anyone seen this? Any way to get xscreensaver working back? It was actually working before, and it is working on all other boxes. Weird thing is that without xscreensaver I don't get any problem, so my work around right now is not to use it. I initially got under the impression that the ext4 corruption wa sdue to something else, so I re-installed all packages, but that didn't help (got list of packages, and install them all through pacman -S)... If this is known and there's way to overcome it, other than just not using xscreesaver at all, please let me know... Thanks, -- Javier.
