Hi, This sounds like a kernel or hardware problem. I am going to reassign to the kernel team.
Every instance of a <a href=" http://www.google.com/search?q=Mutex+destroy+failure&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official">google search for Mutex destroy failure</a> seems to point to KDE. Why this happens with 'ls' I've no idea. Whatever the case, this seems completely unrelated to kernel.
it is not limited to 'ls' alone, I saw this in xine, I saw this is cd I saw this happening in mount and also once in 'nautilus .' It seems to me that after completion of some operation I am encountering the error immediately if I try to do same in the command line. for example if I run psql, exit and try todo some other operation like gnu plot or bc , it occurs the same from python and consecutive operation and so on
yes, it's a bug in kdelibs. It's now fixed in kdelibs-3.3.1-2.14.FC3, which will be released next week. Many thanks for your report.
No I used FC3 on 64 bit, Compaq system. Problem Persisted.
you still have old kdelibs-3.3.1, which of course still has this issue! The new kdelibs-3.3.1-2.14.FC3, which include this fix, will be released next week
This I am encountering in Gnome Env. also
