When something unexplained like this has happened, I'd recommend instead doing an "archive & install" from the Install DVD. Be sure to choose the option to preserve users and it won't be much hassle.

I got the lame source directly from http://lame.sourceforge.net/

I compiled by doing "./configure" to run the config script, then "make" to compile, then "sudo make install" to install it.

hayne, you are probably right about doing an Archive & Install. I'll do that instead when I get the chance. I'm a bit busy right now.

Update: Did an Archive & Install, and sudo works fine now.

Before doing an A&A, I only had ~3GB free (bad for the system, I know). After reinstalling and upgrading to 10.4.11 again, I now have ~10GB free? I know all my user files are intact. Was there some 7GB of crap hiding out in the various hidden system folders?
