Or at least be inevitable collateral damage. > Hi, Not being deeply familiar with the oom-killer heuristics, I could not offer reasoning why 'mate' is killed. These heuristics by default kill the most memory hogging processes in theory and the consequences of this on other processes I cannot comment on. There is one setting you may wish look at and consider. Reading: https://docs.kernel.org/admin-guide/sysctl/vm.html I see the following: https://docs.kernel.org/admin-guide/sysctl/vm.html?highlight=laptop#oom-kill-allocating-task Setting this to '1' may trigger a strategy that does not put 'mate' in the firing line as it changes the target for killing to the process call that triggers the out of memory condition. I am sure if my reading of this setting is wrong, someone will correct. This would be done of course at your own risk after doing the research yourself.

For the most compatible MP4 to deliver to your website visitors, I would use the 'main' profile with ffmpeg. As an extra, I looked at restricting the 'bitrate' and also using the 'veryslow' preset to try for better compression. The bash script attached I think gives wide compatibility and good end file size - around 10.6MB. I hope this is of help to you in its current form of if you wished to make changes to it for your needs.

Hi Gene, Regarding edge of screen data like we are discussing. I personally use the gnome desktop and have the 'Resource Monitor'[1] extension installed. This allows for the displaying of a large amount of data. For other data I use 'lm-sensors' from the terminal. This may offer you more data, but only you can test and see. 'gkrellm' had its last git commit 3 years ago, so maybe the project is stale. Only upstream could tell you that. Maybe ask upstream if development is ongoing, a port to gtk 3 or 4 is in the works or what the projects plans are in general?

Hi, gkrellm does not depend on mbmon currently. mbmom should not be part of a current conversation regarding use of gkrellm as I see it. What data are you wanting from the motherboard and what have you tried thus far? Notes: gkrellm depends on gtk2 and should be avoided IMHO. Both gkrellm and especially mbmon are very dated and IMHO should not be used with newer hardware as they likely do not fit requirements.

Hi, Recap. You have two HDDs: [1] One 160GB with the OS on so '/'. [2] Second 1TB. Correct? Does [2] get mounted as '/home' or are you using it as a extra data drive? How are you mounting it in '/etc/fstab'? You can use the command 'df -h' in the terminal to see mount points. If [1] is the OS drive as you suggest, the VM HDD is on there. Look at the screenshot. There is a default pool for VM disk images at '/var/lib/libvirt/images' and that is where you created the 20GB image.

Hi,
I do not use the main server. I switched 'software-properties-gtk' to
use it and I also get a hang at the what seems the end of the 'reload'
process. In the terminal I see:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-
packages/softwareproperties/gtk/DialogCacheOutdated.py", line 86, in
on_pktask_finish
results = self._pktask.generic_finish(result)
GLib.Error: pk-client-error-quark: E: The repository 'http://deb.debia
n.org/debian stretch/updates Release' does not have a Release file.
W: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is
therefore disabled by default.
W: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user
configuration details.
(319)
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-
packages/softwareproperties/gtk/DialogCacheOutdated.py", line 89, in
on_pktask_finish

Using a mirror such as bytemark.co.uk, results in no issues here.

Why via synaptic the 'trusted.gpg' file is being created needs investigation. The file is a 32 byte file (way to small to be a valid key) is not even viewable by normal key view methods i.e. gpg -k /etc/apt/trusted.gpg or gpg -K /etc/apt/trusted.gpg /me has the feeling the file is just garbage.

If you you 'apt' in the terminal, you will be fine. If you use 'software-properties-gtk' to adjust repositories, you will be fine. The issue is created if you run 'synaptic' and then adjust repositories via 'Settings -> Repositories. A soon as you do this a file '/etc/apt/trusted.gpg' is created and it is this that is throwing everything off. Output: philwyett@ks-skywalker:~$ synaptic-pkexec ERROR:root:Cannot import UbuntuDrivers: No module named 'UbuntuDrivers' gpg: keybox '/etc/apt/trusted.gpg' created ERROR:root:Cannot import UbuntuDrivers: No module named 'UbuntuDrivers' gpg: keybox '/etc/apt/trusted.gpg' created It is the last line that is the issue. If you run 'software- properties-gtk' and adjust repositories, the file is not created. Quick remedy: sudo rm -f /etc/apt/trusted.gpg Now run 'synaptic' or 'apt' as usual. If you run 'synaptic', do not use the menu option 'Settings -> Repositories. This could probably do with a bug raising. Regards Phil -- Playing the game for the games sake.

I have not had time to look into this issue, but believe it maybe related to a known issue No. 3 on: https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/9.0.1-live/amd64/iso-hybrid/ https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=864955 After the live 9.0.0 ISO failed early in install and now the 'su' issue. This raises questions about the testing and QA of of the live ISO images, both pre release and at release time that need to be discussed and addressed in-order to avoid them in the future.
