           Product: fam
         Component: program
           Summary: fam keep polling
           Version: 2.6.9-3mdk
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


With the new Mandrake fam is intalled by default with xinetd (necessary for KDE3).
On my system (kernel 2.4.19-17) it keeps polling the files all the time. This is
very annoying for my laptop because the hard drive cannot stop spinning because
of that (there is also windowmaker without --no-polling but that is another story).

I think the best solution would be to compile fam with the Dnotify patch so that
it trust the kernel and then doesn't poll anything else.
