I made a test with an installation from my WOODY r0 CD's and it works fine. I upgrade to Kernel 2.4.27 (backports.org) and all is working. Then, after upgrading to the current WOODY version I have this behaviour. BUT (!!!) this Problem occurs only as $USER no as root AND (!!!) if I run X. apt-cache eat up all resources in the XTerm and the console. Shoting down the xserver all is working fine... AFAIK I have this problem since WOODY r2. (where I have upgraded the xserver) I do not think, my sources.list is a problem: ftp.debian.org_debian_dists_sid_main_source_Release ftp.debian.org_debian_dists_sid_main_source_Sources ftp.de.debian.org_debian_dists_woody_main_binary-i386_Packages ftp.de.debian.org_debian_dists_woody_main_binary-i386_Release michelle.konzack.home.tamay-dogan.net_debian-backports_dists_woody_backports_main_binary-i386_Packages michelle.konzack.home.tamay-dogan.net_debian-backports_dists_woody_backports_main_binary-i386_Release michelle.konzack.home.tamay-dogan.net_debian-backports_dists_woody_updated_main_binary-i386_Packages michelle.konzack.home.tamay-dogan.net_debian-backports_dists_woody_updated_main_binary-i386_Release michelle.konzack.home.tamay-dogan.net_debian-marillat_dists_stable_main_binary-i386_Packages michelle.konzack.home.tamay-dogan.net_debian-marillat_dists_stable_main_binary-i386_Release non-us.debian.org_debian-non-US_dists_woody_non-US_main_binary-i386_Packages non-us.debian.org_debian-non-US_dists_woody_non-US_main_binary-i386_Release security.debian.org_debian-security_dists_woody_updates_main_binary-i386_Packages security.debian.org_debian-security_dists_woody_updates_main_binary-i386_Release www.backports.org_debian_dists_woody_all_binary-i386_Packages www.backports.org_debian_dists_woody_all_binary-i386_Release www.backports.org_debian_dists_woody_all_source_Release www.backports.org_debian_dists_woody_all_source_Sources OK, since r2 I have massiv memory problems with X and I was thinking that this problem let apt-cache drive crazy... Can you provide a Debug version of apt-cache ? My current installation is a Duron 1600 with 384 MByte only fvwm2 without GNOME/KDE.
