i have two machines affected by this problem. currently i managed to run dpkg again thanks to instructions on the bug discussion. the kernel in question is the same, 2.6.28-3-rt. i am now updating 9.04 to latest packages and will attempt to upgrade to 9.10. please let me know what informations can i provide to help solve the problem. the other machine is not available to me due to hardware failure, however the symptoms were the same, though (as far as i remember) not caused by openoffice (as noted above by one of debaters). i have some notes taken during encountering the bug on this other machine, if it can be helpful. both cases were extremely troubling, as i had no access to two machines (on their linux partitions) for a few months. no help was available on irc.
