i updated the four new files (*.pacnew). after a reboot i realized that mysqld failed to start and i didn't find anything in the logs. next thing was that the wicd daemon started and connected, but wicd-client failed with the error message "Bus error.". chromium also fails:

[16297:16297:1023095321:ERROR:chrome/browser/process_singleton_linux.cc(949)] Failed to create socket directory.
[16297:16297:1023098229:ERROR:chrome/browser/browser_main.cc(1293)] Failed to create a ProcessSingleton for your profile directory. This means that running multiple instances would start multiple browser processes rather than opening a new window in the existing process. Aborting now to avoid profile corruption.

i found out that uninstalling jdk solves the problem, but that's no option for me. the above errors also appear when i install openjdk6 or jdk version 6u23-4. chromium doesn't even start if i install jdk after a reboot without logging in and out again (ergo java is not even in the path).

maybe that's also interesting:

$ uname -a
Linux mathias-laptop 2.6.37-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Feb 25 09:07:57 UTC 2011 i686 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T7500 @ 2.20GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

i couldn't find any related problems on the web...

thank you for any help, ideas or hints!

strange thing was, wicd and chromium worked when run as root. but i found the reason: no space left on my root partition =o| .
