We had some issues with NFS over WLAN and iceweasels sqlite databases, since iceweasel seems to insist on constantly writing to the history whenever loading a web page, resulting in NFS being clogged by too many simultaneous write requests in a classroom, regardless of nolock (but sync and a lower wsize setting helps, somewhat). We ended up providing a package that copies .mozilla from and back to NFS, using /tmp/ as local cache, before starting and ending iceweasel, dpkg-diverting the original iceweasel script. http://rp.skolelinux.de/packages/firefox-tuning/ Yes, I know that a diversion is not the "recommended way". But it was a good workaround for the time being. Regards -Klaus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
