Sometimes I can't start some kde apps, emerge -K kdelibs fixes it O.o So I checked my filesystem (reiserfs) with fsck.reiserfs /dev/hda1 (rebuilded tree also) -- no errors were founded. Then I have been searching for tool to check md5sum of libs. See this: # qpkg -v -cm kdelibs kde-base/kdelibs-3.2.3-r1 * /usr/kde/3.2/lib/libkhtml.so.4.2.0 !md5! 1/4720 # emerge -K kdelibs # qpkg -v -cm kdelibs 0/4720 I remember the same thing with qt package too... And maybe this is caused by the same error: Booting live-cd I was copying 3.3 gb file backup from CDs to clean hda1 reiserfs partition. I was checking md5sums of these... So the 3rd splitted part's md5sum was incorrect, then I copied it again from CD to partiton -- md5sum was OK. I had dma turned off, noapic and acpi=off. I am really looking forward to any feedback from you, I want to solve this and never face to this bug again. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Can't reproduce, it is random.

The same story with gtk+-1.2.10-r11
It's not about KDE. News: shutdown fixes it or sometimes reboot...
Switched to gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.8-r1 to experement... Because I had no problems like in this issue when I was using 2.6.x kernel (even with test ones :D ).

Fix it yourself... I am out of ideas and time
Is this weird problem still happening? It seems no one here can explain it, sorry...
It is hardware problem.
