Cnnot start firefox etc after todays update. No samba either

Question

Hi
   Today i did a pacman -Syu that updated qt, samba and something else that i dont remember. The problem is that after that i couldn't run openoffice. After i did a reboot i couldn't start firefox or thunderbird. Additionaly artsd crashes as soon as the kde session starts.
When i try to run firefox and thunderbird from command line i get
[insane@arch ~]$ firefox
/opt/mozilla/lib/firefox-1.5.0.4/run-mozilla.sh: line 131:  5490 Segmentation fault      "$prog" ${1+"$@"}
[insane@arch ~]$ thunderbird
/opt/mozilla/lib/thunderbird-1.5.0.4/run-mozilla.sh: line 131:  5502 Segmentation fault      "$prog" ${1+"$@"}
Another thing is that network shares that are mounted with cifs don't list any files. Samba service on restart fails to stop but appears to start normaly. Still no shares. And dmesg | tail doesn't report anything.
Any ideas on these please?

Answer 1

Have been using OOo2 (regularily updated from 'main' repo) without any prob.
Same prob in this location without samba package but have smbclient installed :
$ swriter
/usr/bin/soffice: line 236: 11402 Segmentation fault      "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@"
Note : swriter worked fine up to when it crashed (just after I printed 2 pages from a .DOC document)
$ sdraw
/usr/bin/soffice: line 236: 11643 Segmentation fault      "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@"
Line 233-236 shows :
# execute soffice binary
"$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@" &
trap 'kill -9 $!' TERM
wait $!
$ pacman -Qs samba smb
local/gnome-vfs 2.14.2-1

local/smbclient 3.0.23-1

Found a similar Seg fault on Debian ml. The guy having that issue solved it when he commented DRI in his xorg.conf :?:  :!:
