Under 2.4.22-ac2 rpm runs perfectly fine, but when I run it under 2.6.0-test, it outputs the following errors: sudo rpm -Uvh alsa-driver-0.9.6-1.fr.i386.rpm Password: rpmdb: unable to join the environment error: db4 error(11) from dbenv->open: Resource temporarily unavailable error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Resource temporarily unavailable (11) error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm warning: alsa-driver-0.9.6-1.fr.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID e42d547b rpmdb: unable to join the environment error: db4 error(11) from dbenv->open: Resource temporarily unavailable error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm rpmdb: unable to join the environment error: db4 error(11) from dbenv->open: Resource temporarily unavailable error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm I have never seen rpm do this before, and it only occurs under 2.6.0-test. It happens under these specific kernels: 2.6.0-test5-bk10 2.6.0-test5-bk11 2.6.0-test5-mm4 I have not tried -test5-bk12 yet, but I have a feeling that I will get the same errors. I have checked syslog and dmesg and there are no errors from the kernel; under 2.4.22-ac2 rpm works perfectly fine, so I don't believe it's file corruption or filesystem breakage. Does anyone have any ideas that I can try? Thanks! Brad ===== Brad Chapman Permanent e-mail: kakadu_croc@yahoo.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
