There are two files in the home directory that I usually use and I am unable
to remove them, they were created by the "glimpse" package and I believe they
are related to the problem. I can't connect to the Internet either, from
that machine, so the only solution is to reinstall Linux. I don't believe
the problem is really related to updating Sarge today, I think it is either a
bad disk or an error somewhere from which I cannot recover. There are kernel
messages being sent to all consoles and they relate to reiserfs errors and
DMA errors. I can still ssh into the machine, so I will copy important
files and then reinstall Linux. I might have to buy a new hard drive for
that machine.
