Preempt is activated. What I do is: emerge mozilla (root) play with lynx (normal user) on another console. I don't think lynx has something to do with it, but it happened twice with this "configuration". Because I don't have enough space on my disk, I exportet the PORTAGE_TMP to another machine (over samba). But as I did not have the rights to become root, I created a file-image on the other machine, and mounted this image as loop device: # mount [snip] //matrix.netsoc.tcd.ie/loitschc on /mnt/matrix type smbfs (0) /mnt/matrix/tmp-gentoo/fs.img on /mnt/loop-matrix type ext2 (rw,loop=/dev/loop0) My machine is also _very_ slow: MMX 133. (it takes ~10h to compile Mozilla) I have no idea if the machine freezes or just stays with the emerge. Anyway it responds to ^-Alt-Del. But also come back the second time, when I waited a little bit longer. So my question, should I report this somewhere? christian
