Hello,
i'm getting some errors i really dont understand. I was trying out flash 10 (beta), which worked ok. The next day i tried to log in, but kde 3 didn't started, as stated in ~/.xinitrc. Besides that, loggin into console as my standard user and doing a "startx" worked. Next i tried to update arch, which gave me the following errors:
(1/1) checking for file conflicts [################################] 100%
(1/1) upgrading pacman [################################] 100%
/sbin/ldconfig: Cannot mmap file /usr/lib/libtheora.so.0.3.1.

/sbin/ldconfig: Cannot mmap file /usr/lib/libXfontcache.so.1.0.0.
/sbin/ldconfig: Cannot mmap file /usr/lib/libusb.so.
I looked up these files and found some weird permissions, users and groups for some files in /usr/lib. (I dont think "libtiff.so.3" should be ~2GB )

So far this happend only to files in /usr/lib. Well, it could be, that the beta plugin from adobe messed these things up. But... how to clean this up? Would it be the best to remove all packages that belong to these files, then manually remove these files, and reinstall everything? Or is this some known problem?
Besides that: I am using ext3 and i had a 4,3 GB file on my system that day, i tried out the flash beta, if that means anything.

It is very strange. Run fsck on this filesystem and then execute
find / -nouser -exec chown root {} \;
find / -nogroup -exec chgrp root {} \;
I think this should fix your problem.

Thanks for your suggestion, robertp. I'll have to try this out from a live distribution, because now my arch wont boot anymore. Theres somethin wrong with my ext3 partition.
