Hi Foo Could it be an application problem. It sounds like an application is adding data to a possible type 1 file as a log or a como file or even a print job and it is growing to an enormous size consuming resources. There might be some other application that has gone rogue. Can you identify

For SuSE, I had to remove all the options to cpio. Note also, that when it tries to set up the daemon to autostart on boot, that fails also because SuSE uses a different /etc/rc.d setup. That needs manually fixing, because you can't run uv as a user unless uvd is running. Cheers, Wol
