Are you suffering a corrupt filesystem that has been remounted as
read-only?...


For such strangeness, I'd suggest running a Memtest86+ check on your
computer and then running a filesystem check on all your partitions.

Running a backup to ensure your data is safe is a very good idea...


Let us know what you find,

Good luck!
Martin
