I'm getting a memory allocation error that I've seen mentioned elsewhere around on the net. There's even a bug report that looks more or less active. The only solution anyone has claimed worked for them was to update the client chroot. But, I tried that, and it doesn't work. My clients are 64-bit, as is the server. I've also seen the advice to not use 64-bit clients, but that's not really practical for us.
I just wonder if there's any new information or any new troubleshooting to try. If not, can I help the bug troubleshooting in some way? Synopsis: Server: 64-bit Oneiric (11.10) 3.0.0-15-generic Client: 64-bit amd64 (boots 3.0.0-14-generic) Insert USB Stick. The stick shows up in /media/username/usb-blah-blah. It is possible to list all the files, recursively, all the way down. It is also possible to get realistic-looking file sizes with "ls -l". But, try to head a file or copy it, and you get: $ head /media/lachele/usbdisk-sdb1/e12_adv_survey_20110115.html head: error reading `/media/lachele/usbdisk-sdb1/e12_adv_survey_20110115.html': Cannot allocate memory One interesting thing I've noticed.... If I list the whole usb stick contents, I get this ownership: $ ls -l /media/lachele/usbdisk-sdb1/ [snip] -rwx------ 1 lachele users 696678 2011-01-15 19:14 e12_adv_survey_20110115.html [snip] ...but if I try to list that individual file, the ownership looks different: $ ls -l /media/lachele/usbdisk-sdb1/e12_adv_survey_20110115.html -rwx------ 1 root root 696678 2011-01-15 19:14 /media/lachele/usbdisk-sdb1/e12_adv_survey_20110115.html Could that be part of the issue somehow? I am a member of plugdev and fuse, which are the two groups I think might be relevant. -- :-) Lachele Lachele Foley CCRC/UGA Athens, GA USA ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try before you buy = See our experts in action!
