[Bug 30187] gamin is constantly polling some directory when root is over nfs
Public bug report changed: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/30187 Task: ubuntu gamin Status: Unconfirmed = Fix Released Comment: Closing as fixed since dapper works fine. There is no obvious patch or change to backport for 5.10, that's not a frequent complain and the bug is annoying but not a crash, I would say it's low priority for a stable update. If somebody comes with a simple patch for it he/she would be welcome though -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 30187] gamin is constantly polling some directory when root is over nfs
Public bug reported: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/30187 Affects: gamin (Ubuntu) Severity: Normal Priority: (none set) Status: Unconfirmed Description: My workstation is diskless, and boots with root over nfs. The Breezy installation works as expected in this configuration, except that gamin (gam_server) is constantly polling some directory on the nfs. I guess gamin fallback to polling when neither inotify nor dnotify is available to monitor some files. But it seems that instead of polling quietly (once every X seconds), it does poll as fast as it can, making the system very slow. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 30187] gamin is constantly polling some directory when root is over nfs
Public bug report changed: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/30187 Comment: After upgrading to dapper's version of gamin and libgamin, gamin behave as expected, polling nfs from time to time. So, this bug should be known upstream. I read the gamin Changelog, and a lot of change has been made for 0.1.5 in basic polling code, but nothing reference nfs' use case. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
