Hi there,
I'm Junior from Brazil and this is my first time on
this list.
Can anybody help me? I've got a customer problem
really strange. That is the problem:
The customer was working in a Novell Netware 4.11,
using a Clipper Program. We changed this to a RedHat
7.1, using Flagship to delivery the program to the
workstation through the LTSP terminals. But I've got 2
problems.
1-) Slow response time to write information on the HD.
The customer was working much better on Netware in
another machine (not so great than the actual). The
systems is taking a long time to write an order. It's
not a program error, 'cause it was working fine on
Netware.
On the dmesg file that the SCSIs hard drivers are
working in 40 mbps in RAID 5 mode. It's a dual
processor 1 ghz, but the dmesg tell me it's working at
798 mhz (it's less then the original, but it's a great
dual processor to this application). I found some
information I don't know if that is related with this
problem. here is a summary of some messages i found on
the dmesg file:
- Linux version 2.4.2-2smp
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 2.96

- Disk Storage- 34904Mb, 512 byte sectors.
- mtrr: your processor doesn't support write-combining
- I2O: MTRR workaround for Intel i960 processor
The second one may be is related with the first one.
When I'm working with 512Mb RAM the system the system
works fine, but when I add another DIMM 512Mb the
system use all memory available and when the system
use more than 800 Mb RAM, it doen't release the used
memory. The system get slow 'till halt. To fix that we
have to reboot the machine.
Can it be an LTSP problem? Maybe some specific
configuration with dual processors?
The manager for the Flagship represents in Brazil told
it isn't a Flagship problem. By the way, write faster
is one advantage from Flagship, it goes from 2 until
100 times faster. But anyway he doesn't know what kind
of problem is happening...
I don't want to loose this fight!
If some one know something about it I'll apreciate
your help.
Thank you all guys.
Arecio Jr.
Brazil.
