Hello: I have a rather run of the mill Fedora box running FC3 which for some reason refuses to compile large projects. For example, lets say I check out CVS emacs, run configure and make, it starts the compilation process, runs for a while and then either the machine freezes (and I have to restart the machine) or it just reboots. The same thing happens when I try to recompile kdemultimedia according to the advice in http://www.holovaty.com/linux/fedorafaq/kde_mp3.html I do not know whether this a gcc leak or what it is. There is no log of what exactly causes this as far as I can see. Can someone please suggest ways I can debug this ? Or some way to hunt down the culprit ? Amitabha
