Deuce is more familiar with this problem than I am. I'm running FC3 myself, but
I run sbbs as root (being a Windows user, I'm use to this risk). Anyway,
perhaps Deuce can add some insight.

At this point, all I can personally suggest is either running an older (e.g.
more "stable") Linux distro or simply run sbbs as root. But like I said, Deuce
may have more input on this.
