Hello again pat, I looked at the logs and I can answer some questions.
> Some questions: > > 1. Are you using inotify (check ~/.beagle/Logs/current-Beagle) > 2. Are you using extended attributes? (check same file) >From what the log says it is using extended attributes and inotify. "070216 1121501707 05970 Beagle WARN: Extended attributes are not supported on this filesystem. Performance will suffer as a result." "070216 1123523921 05970 Beagle DEBUG: Stopping inotify threads" Now I really don't know the difference between them and I will research it. > 3. What filesystem is on /home? ext3, reiserfs, ... Like I said, my "/home" partition is an LVM2 Volume which contains 3 ext3 physical extends which are (2 partitions(40GB,100GB) and 1 disk(350GB) both are sata). > 4. Which kernel version? unmae -r = 2.6.17-11-generic > Here are some things to try. > > I. Attempt to get the logs saved on disk using the SysReq commands. This must > be enabled in the kernel config under kernel hacking. > 1. SysReq - S to sync disks > 2. SysReq - U to remount partitions read-only > 3. SysReq - R reboot > 4. Check in both beagle logs and kernel logs. > > II. Use netconsole to get important kernel messages at the time of freeze. > This sends the kernel messages over the network where another computer can > log them. > 1. Configure netconsole in the kernel, > see /usr/src/linux/Documentation/netconsole.txt for instructions. > 2. Install cancd on another machine to get the logs. > 3. You probably need an ethernet card (not wireless) to do this. Not > sure, > others may know. > > III. Disable features to isolate the problem. I expect the kernel features > would be suspect: > 1. Disable both inotify and extended attributes (anyone how to do this > in > beagle?) > 2. Run with only inotify. > 3. Run with only extended attributes. > I will also like know how I can do this. But I will research. > Out of curiousity, why 2 partitions and 1 disk ? How this arrangement came about is a long story, it happened during my Windowz switch. > Best Regards, Fotis _______________________________________________ Dashboard-hackers mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers
