Package: ifplugd Version: 0.26-2 Severity: normal I am offline right now, so please excuse if this is a duplicate.
ifplugd doesn't play nice with X when it's monitoring an interface that doesn't currently exist (e.g. USB). All X processes doing graphics will stop every second for a brief moment, which can be quite annoying. To reproduce, run glxgears (or a .mpeg file in xine) and then start /usr/sbin/ifplugd -i nosuchdevice -q -f -u0 -d10 -w -I -b -n It would be nice if ifplugd could be a little less aggressive about polling the interface. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers stable APT policy: (700, 'stable'), (600, 'testing'), (98, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.14-2-686 Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages ifplugd depends on: ii debconf 1.4.62 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.5-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libdaemon0 0.10-1 lightweight C library for daemons Versions of packages ifplugd recommends: ii ifupdown 0.6.7 high level tools to configure netw -- debconf information: * ifplugd/interfaces: eth0 ath0 * ifplugd/hotplug_interfaces: all * ifplugd/args: -q -f -u0 -d10 -w -I -b * ifplugd/suspend_action: stop -- .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer and author: http://debiansystem.info `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP (sub)keys?
