Oh my goodness! Now I know what the problem is; df reports that the disk is full (discovered after running 'man '). About 3 years ago I ran into the same problem and resolved it by creating a new home dir on /dev/hda3 and then moving the contents of my home directory there. I must not have told it that this is where my new home is because I know fsck only runs on /dev/hda2 Uh-OHHHHHH. I guesas that I don't know what I'm doing.
