fsck the disk.
OK! However, physical access to this computer is a complex issue, and to run fsck on the / and /usr partitions (which are the most obvious places to look), I can't think of a way to unmount them without having to reboot from a rescue system. Is there a way, or is there a way to check without unmounting?
Find a specific program that segfaults. Reinstall the program. If it still segfaults, then ldd <prog> to find its libraries. Check or reinstall the libraries. Run ldconfig and check for errors.
OK, so most likely, it is a damaged binary?
It could be, but it's usually a symptom of slight filesystem corruption that can be easily fixed with fsck. If you know a specific binary that's segfaulting, then you could copy it to your local pc and compare it against a good one. If it's not that, you can do the same with its shared libs.
