[Bug 1007133] Re: Evolution locks up under KDE in Kubuntu 12.04 when setting an alarm on an appointment

2012-08-04 Thread Kurt De Smet
I have the same error, because I suspect a GTK layout/button/whatever
error I changed the GTK+ Appearance style from the default oxygen-gtk to
Radiance and evolution doesn't lock up anymore when adding an alarm to
the agenda.

I hope this helps someone

[Bug 197762] Re: file transfers on USB disk are very slow

2009-05-08 Thread Kurt De Smet
Hi Lucas,

I noticed everything goes fine until the memory gets full, then starts
the swapping and the slowdown. It's like the memory is used as buffer,
when that runs out it uses the virtual memory on the HD. No problem with
small sizes that fit the memory but when you select 100 GB at once ...
then the HD starts writing to itself fairly rapidly. When AHCI was
enabled the memory gets used to but strangely enough it does not use the
virtual memory (NCQ?). As you stated the NCQ may prevents the HD from
playing with itself. It may not be the main problem (that's why I didn't
file a bug) but I'm fairly sure some people have IDE selected or only
have IDE in their BIOS. I only thought it was worth mentioning how I
solved my problem because I read very similar stories to mine here. It
could be good to know if they are using a PATA or SATA drive as source.
Once you filter those out you can narrow down to the real problem.

[Bug 197762] Re: file transfers on USB disk are very slow

2009-05-07 Thread Kurt De Smet
I had the same problem, needed to backup 200+ GB to a USB HD due to a
hardware upgrade. Then I remembered the board had a strange bios reset
recently (hence the upgrade) so I checked and set the bios SATA
configuration back from IDE to AHCI (My mobo has 3 possible settings
IDE, RAID and AHCI). Now it's supper silent (no more swapping to disk)
and a steady transfer rate (+/- 27 MB/sec).

This is the solution that helped me, and hopefully some others.
