I would reinstall libreoffice, kate, and all of their dependencies before going too far into this. It's quite possibly that your bad drive had a bad sector or similar in one or more of these programs... especially since you didn't experience these segfaults before, and no one else has either. Something like: aptitude reinstall '?reverse-Depends(libreoffice)~i'; aptitude reinstall '?reverse-Depends(kate)~i'; will do that for you. If they still occur, enable coredumps, and get a backtrace of the coredump using gdb or similar. [You'll also want to install all of the -dbg packages you can for the libraries referenced in the backtrace.] -- Don Armstrong http://www.donarmstrong.com One day I put instant coffee in my microwave oven and almost went back in time. -- Steven Wright -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
