Isn't it a move to behave accordingly to some POSIX standard? Which is probably out of the scope of Mandrake... Just a guess, Guillaume. On Mon, 2003-06-30 at 18:09, James Sparenberg wrote: On Mon, 2003-06-30 at 20:11, Albert E. Whale, CISSP wrote: I have been running Mandrake since version

Read the second line, you'll feel better! The system caches a lot of stuff for latter potential reuse. To know how much memory is really used, substract the cached and buffers value (done on the second line). Guillaume. On Fri, 2003-06-20 at 11:54, Brian V Bonini wrote: Am I reading this

Do you see anything in the log (/var/log/messages) before the reboot time? Sometime the kernel logs a driver failure before becoming instable and crashing itself. Does it happen at a regurlar timeof the day? (Like 4:00 am when the msec stuff kick in (on 8.2 at least)). Guillaume. On Fri,

To understand what is going on your networks, use tcpdump on both network. Do something like: # tcpdump -i eth0 -l -n and # tcpdump -i usb0 -l -n Then send pings from your pda and follow the path of the query and response as it goes through you linux box. First ping 192.168.1.1, you should

So, does anyone know why it si balanced sometimes and not other times? Does it depend on the overall load of the machine? On the hardware? On the astrological ascendent of the sys admin? Guillaume. On Fri, 2003-06-13 at 11:26, Vincent Danen wrote: On Fri Jun 13, 2003 at 09:46:51AM +0100, Mark

Does it depend on the processor? We have a double PII and a double Xeon (which shows as 4 processor). On the PII, it is balanced, on the Xeon, CPU0 does all the work. Just wondering, Guillaume. On Thu, 2003-06-12 at 12:20, Mark Watts wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 *

That's not a solution but for your jobs working in xterm, use screen (man sreen). Even if xterm and X crash, you jobs will still be working... Isn't there an issue with some AMD processors and the linux kernel... Something about cache coherance... Guillaume. On Saturday 16 November 2002 10:37
