I had the sam problem. My system was running out of inodes. As i wasn't able to find the reason i reinstalled the system and everything was ok. But i think that reinstalling isn't a good solution. The problem occured after a cvsup. To find out which directories contain most data you can use "find /usr | sed 's#/[^/]*$##' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | head". It lists the 10 most data containing directories. I haven't done this because my system was reinsatlled;^)

By the way: My system has been a completely fersh system. I just installed from the Release1.0A CD and enabled moused. Then i started to update the system. I had not installed any software at that point, except the stuff on the CD.

Cheers

Johannes
