It seems solved so far, the procedure I applied : 1. I doubted the ISO from which I installed as it was a broken SHA1SUM, but same ISO gave fair install at other places still. 2. I ran a double bad block check on /usr with e2fsck 3. checked on various *.cache files in /usr as I did earlier some were only root readable despite of my trials to change the permissions, so finally I took a back of those and removed those 4. I removed some suspected packages and instaleld again , "rpm -e gnome-mime-data gnome-vfs2 gnome-themes shared-mime-info gnome-icon-theme --nodeps" "yum -y install gnome-mime-data gnome-vfs2 gnome-themes shared-mime-info gnome-icon-theme" This solved my interim problem so far, yet I can not be sure enough if it was some bug, perhaps two things could be still at major fault broken sum on iso or bad disk, so far I did not find any bad blocks into "dumpe2fs" output.
