Hi,
I think i have space on the /var system
Code:
df -kh  /var
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5              12G  6.4G  5.0G  57% /

Also i tried setting,
Code:
 setenv MALLOC_CHECK_ 0

But after this when i try open a file using vi,it never opens up and this hangs for ever.

More Info,
Code:
cat /etc/SuSE-release
SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 (i586)
VERSION = 9
PATCHLEVEL = 3

rpm -q glibc
glibc-2.3.3-98.61

Please let me know if there are alternatives,

Thanks
Nagarajan G
