Well, I don't think it is perverse. I have already more than 10 days uptime with a machine, that runs completely with 2.3.1 (and this machine was only for about 13h idle). In order to run with the new ld.so, you may try the following: /lib/ld.so.1 --library-path /lib:/usr/usr/lib command or you set up a chroot system with all needed programs. Berthold
