Package: fam Version: 2.6.6.1-5.2
I'm running a pretty stock Sarge desktop except for a 2.6.10-k7 kernel - the 2.6.8 kernels don't like my Logitech cordless click! mouse - and the nvidia drivers (the problem is not related to either as it occurs with earlier kernels and with the nv driver as well). It's up to date as of today.
After a brief period of running, famd starts taking up the entire CPU and my desktop applications begin crashing. Once I kill famd, my desktop returns to normal and is quite stable. This happens under both Gnome and KDE.
I have: - an MSI kT4V mainboard with an Athlon XP2100+ CPU and 1G DDRAM - onboard sound and lan - dual WD 160G HDs - LG 4120B dual-layer DVD burner - An ASUS nVidia 8x AGP video card
I've set the system up with /home on the second drive and 2 x 1G swap files, one on each drive (/var/swap1 & /home/swap1). I also have several mounted shares from a W2K server.
I don't know if it's a bug or something about my system setup but it's annoying. :) Since the fam package is required by Gnome, I can't remove it. I gather it's doing something important, so I also don't like not having it running.
