That was silly, be more careful in future.

KDE3 is (slooooowly) moving into sid, so KDE is quite broken at the
moment.  If you're using sid, you should a) watch apt very carefully,
and b) read the debian-devel-announce list so that coun see what's
happening with sid.

This is bad.  Are you using hdparm or something?  Do the kernel logs
tell you anything else?  How old is the machine?

You'll only need to reinstall if your disk has been corrupted; use
debsums to check.
