ok, I'm rebuilding my machine, and everything is going along just fine, when during the compile of the i2c package, so that I can use lm-sensors, dies with signal 11 from gcc. I check google. Google brings up many many articles, most of which say that I probably have bad ram. I install memtest86. Sure enough, my 256M stick is bad. I take out the ram, and run on the other 128 that was in the box. I go to recompile i2c, and still the signal 11 rears its ugly head. I realize that RMS has nothing better to do than to put cryptic error codes in gcc that could mean one of 5 bazillion things. (ok, that last part was just rant after 6 hours of fighting with this.) But what could be the problem? -T
