[Bug 1319219] [NEW] db5.3-util has incorrect man pages filenames
Public bug reported: db5.3-util currently has man pages installed as db5.2_name instead of db5.3_name. This breaks man page symlinks in db-util and is very confusing: e.g. neither man db_stat nor man db5.3_stat work, and you need to run man db5.2_stat. Looks like man pages haven't been updated along with a switch to upstream 5.3. ** Affects: db5.3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1319219 Title: db5.3-util has incorrect man pages filenames To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/db5.3/+bug/1319219/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1199571] Re: compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in af_latin_hints_compute_edges()
I looked at my coredump on trusty (it crashed for me twice already!) with gdb and I see evidence that this crash might be due to multithreading issues. The reason is that when inspecting memory at %rdx (edge) and I see that a pointer at %rdx+0x48 (edge-first) doesn't match with a pointer in %rcx (edge-first taken at the start of the loop). Besides, freetype code can never produce %rax == 0 at the crash location, this would only happen if af_latin_hints_compute_edges is called concurrently on the same hints structure, which causes pointers to change for segments that are processed in another thread. Best of luck, ThreadStackTrace.txt shows exactly that, two threads are in af_latin_hints_compute_edges with same parameters!

[Bug 1199571] Re: compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in af_latin_hints_compute_edges()
I looked at the implementation of cairo-ft-font.c and it seems that there are huge multi-threading violations in cairo. The reason is that FreeType API documentation clearly states: In multi-threaded applications, make sure that the same FT_Library object or any of its children doesn't get accessed in parallel. Cairo initializes FT_Library for its font map and there's a lock for that, however it's only used for font map manipulations, the actual FT_ library calls are completely unprotected with that lock, although they should be! What adds to the injury is that cairo-ft-font.c even has this comment on one of its functions: You must be careful when using this function in a library or in a threaded application, because freetype's design makes it unsafe to call freetype functions simultaneously from multiple threads, (even if using distinct FT_Face objects) Too bad they don't follow their own advice, and no wonder compiz is crashing like that.

[Bug 1289600] [NEW] Fix for crashes due to ubuntu-specific accessibility patch
Public bug reported: I wrote about this on kubuntu-devel and kubuntu-user, but maybe it's better for it to be a proper bug report: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kubuntu- devel/2014-February/007954.html In short plasma can be easily crashed by clicking on Show activities and then Add widgets, although reproducibility seems to depend on screen resolution. I traced this to an ubuntu-specific accessibility patch to qt4-x11, which incorrectly places QDeclarativeAccessibilityUpdater inside QDeclarativeEnginePrivate, making it possible for engine to be destroyed before QDeclarativeItem that are subscribed to it, causing crashes on destruction. Although this is very reproducible in plasma the nature of the bug means any application that uses QtDeclarative may crash like that, e.g. searching shows many reports for crashes in settings with similar stack traces with QDeclarativeItem destructor. Attached is the patch for qt 4.8.5 that should fix this issue (should be applied after kubuntu_97_a11y_qt_and_qml_backport.diff).

[Bug 59695] Re: High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime
Hanno, I don't really remember, but I think back when I was investigating problems with my Samsung drive I found that iotop didn't show all the interesting values and was patching it to be more precise. Also, please be aware, that querying smart will always unpark drive heads, because smart values (I think) have to be read from special sectors on your drive. The same goes for ANY hard drive temperature monitoring (because they ALL have to query smart to get drive temperature), so remove hddtemp if you have it installed. If you want your drive to stay parked longer try enabling laptop-mode (look at /etc/laptop-mode/laptop-mode.conf for details and don't forget to set ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE=true in /etc/default/acpi-support). What you must be interested in is *_MAX_LOST_WORK_SECONDS, but it will work on AC only when you have ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE_ON_AC=1.

Tormod, ceg, I thought one step at a time is always much easier to accept, that's why I chose to migrate old settings first. I feared otherwise people would end up arguing what defaults are better/worse and this would get nowhere. Now there are just two steps, indeed.

If there are any concerns about system freezes or any issues like that, you could try setting ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE_ON_BATTERY=0 by default.

No, because laptop-mode is still disabled by default.

tricky1, what does this have to do with my bug report? Note, that the values you see in my debdiff are the ones currently specified in /etc/default/acpi-support and /etc/acpi/power.sh, nothing more. /etc/default/acpi-support currently specifies SPINDOWN_TIME=12, but 12 is not seconds, it's a magical value that translates to 60 seconds (because in that lower range it's a number of 5 seconds intervals). It is not my job to argue correctness of default values, all I want is to move hard-coded values from acpi-support to laptop-mode- tools where they can be clearly and easily tweaked by users (i.e. 60 seconds is much more elaborate than magical number 12).

[Bug 250935] Re: [intrepid] laptop-mode-tools needs to change its default settings to match acpi-support and add hooks for pm-utils
1. Well, if it's true it should be very easy to change: just s[etc/pm/][usr/lib/pm-utils/] in the debdiff. 2. Unfortunately, I have no clue if Debian currently uses acpi-support/pm-utils or anything else. At the very least they don't have hacks in /etc/acpi/power.sh like Ubuntu has, so they must be doing something differently. 3. At first I was thinking about changing pm-utils, but then I realized that pm-utils shouldn't control laptop-mode-tools either. So I decided that the correct place for hooks is laptop-mode-tools itself. 4. As far as I reviewed laptop_mode script it should. It should actually do it without arguments as well, but I thought it is better to pass auto anyway. It's just important not to pass start/stop, comment Old options. We always do auto for any option now is misleading: check for start/stop is done after auto-detection. Additionally, compared to Debian, Ubuntu's laptop_mode has state check commented out, which means we don't have problems like previous state is incorrect after hibernate/thaw and settings are not reapplied. Just calling laptop_mode auto at the right moments seems to be sufficient in Ubuntu (as long as /etc/init.d/laptop-mode is in runlevels). -- [intrepid] laptop-mode-tools needs to change its default settings to match acpi-support and add hooks for pm-utils https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/250935 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Public bug reported: Binary package hint: laptop-mode-tools Currently acpi-support is running laptop-mode incorrectly. First of all it executes laptop-mode with start and stop commands directly, which interferes with settings users have in /etc/laptop-mode/laptop- mode.conf. Secondly, immediately after that it applies hard-coded power management and spindown time values, which interfere with the same settings specified in /etc/laptop-mode/laptop-mode.conf.

I'm not providing a patch for this, because I might be too biased on the matter of correct values (i.e. I think the values that are currently used in hardy are bad and I'm using different values). ceg, if you can, please advertise my patches to developers. I'm currently basically no one in Ubuntu community and don't know the right people to talk to.

[Bug 244716] [NEW] mc lacks build-dep on some x11 libraries (which breaks Ctrl+Enter)
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: mc Until recently I have been building mc with dpkg-buildpackage, and what I immediately noticed is that Ctrl+Enter was working as expected. Since I moved to 4.6.2 at the time I thought this must be something fixed in mc. Now I started using pbuilder and after I rebuilt the very same package Ctrl+Enter suddenly stopped working. Interestingly, both old and new .debs don't depend on any x11 libraries, yet behave differently. I tried modifying Build-Dep by adding xorg-dev, and it surely helped in that Ctrl+Enter started working. xorg-dev is an overkill in this case, what needed is to find the exact library Midnight Commander depends on for this sort of functionality. Unfortunately I'm not familiar with x11 development at the moment, so I don't even know what it might be. Please find what exactly Midnight Commander depends on for extra keyboard functionality and add it to Build-Dep. As far as I can see it is linked to it statically (whatever it is) and does not harm console mode in any way (even executable size doesn't change). ** Affects: mc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Summary changed: - mc lacks build-dep on some x11 libraries + mc lacks build-dep on some x11 libraries (which breaks Ctrl+Enter) -- mc lacks build-dep on some x11 libraries (which breaks Ctrl+Enter) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/244716 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 59695] Re: High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime
Hi pelm, I had an exactly the same issue with my Samsung drive, I suspect this could be happening because of overheating or some other hardware problem causing superclicks if heads are not parked for more than a minute or so. I'm tired of repeating that disabling power management is *not* a solution. Minimizing disk access is. And that's what laptop-mode is for.

[Bug 239419] Re: pm-utils has laptop-tools script which conflicts with laptop-mode-tools
Hmm. That's strange. I've just reinstalled ubuntu, added these lines:
if [ -f /etc/default/acpi-support ] ; then
. /etc/default/acpi-support
if [ x$ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE = xtrue ] ; then
echo Laptop mode enabled, laptop-tools has nothing to do
exit 0
fi
fi
and it worked for me (cat /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode shows 2).
Are you sure you have ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE=true in /etc/default/acpi-
support?
Also don't forget to replace original laptop_mode_enable and
laptop_mode_disable in /etc/acpi/power.sh with this:
function laptop_mode_enable {
$LAPTOP_MODE auto
}
function laptop_mode_disable {
$LAPTOP_MODE auto
}
The original is disabling laptop-mode in 5 seconds after you plug in to

[Bug 59695] Re: High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime
I personally think the solution should be simple. First some parameters in laptop-mode need splitting into LM_AC_ and LM_BAT_ (like LM_READAHEAD), next someone should invent sane defaults that actually work for a default installation. Next installer should autodetect or ask (during installation) if user wants to run on laptop-mode or not. And really, the only sane default for ubuntu would be hdparm -B 128, provided that laptop-mode is actually working as expected.

Also, more on laptop-mode. In config file comments I've seen that it is disabled by default (and it seems devs tried to make it not so obvious how to really enable it), because it causes odd hangs on some computers. What sort of hangs are we dealing with? If this was about hangs when watching a movie, then the right answer would be not setting LM_READAHEAD to 3072 by default. It'd be a shame if laptop-mode was so hard-codedly disabled because of readahead problem. :-/ -- High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59695 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 59695] Re: High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime
A note of observation. After I switched back to Windows XP I found that Windows indeed didn't let my drive to spin down or park heads, however all this came at the same price I had in Linux, i.e. frequent superclicks and Load_Retry_Count increasing. So the problem is not with Linux or Ubuntu at all, the problem is solely with the hard drive. It is also worth noting that with Ubuntu I was able to reach any comfortable increase rates by carefully tweaking /etc/laptop-mode /laptop-mode.conf. The most important are ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE_ON_AC=1, LOST_WORK_SECONDS (the default value of 360 ensures only 10 Load_Cycle_Count per hour), READAHEAD (which in my opinion shouldn't default to 3072, since huge delays every half or one minute between reads effectively prevent playing videos, setting it to LM_READAHEAD=128 was the best in my case), IDLE_TIMEOUT (if you want your drive to really cool down when idle, in my observation 60 seconds on AC was the best), and WRITECACHE set to one (this adds another good layer of caching by the hard drive). Now don't forget to set ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE=true in your /etc/default /acpi-support. BUT ALL THIS WON'T WORK unless you edit your /etc/acpi/power.sh and do the following modifications: Comment out all $HDPARM nonsense, since laptop-mode controls this for you (provided you set your settings in laptop-mode.conf, of course). Next, where you see $LAPTOP_MODE stop it should be $LAPTOP_MODE, WITHOUT STOP. The latter is very important, because when /usr/sbin/laptop_mode stop is called it effectively TURNS OFF LAPTOP MODE, even if you have ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE=true in your /etc/default /acpi-support. While calling /usr/sbin/laptop_mode without arguments does autodetection, and depending on your settings will either Without laptop mode lost work seconds do not work and this means that mount option is not applied and pdflush will drop caches half a second after some program (i.e. firefox) writes something to disk. The constant writing to disk by many applications is what actually causes heads to unpark, and when manufacturer sets some very ridiculous timeout for head parking (i.e. 3 seconds in my case) heads keep unparking all the time. I'm not sure if acpid is at fault here for calling laptop_mode with stop argument, or laptop_mode not honoring your settings when stop is passed, but current settings make laptop mode effectively useless. When I did the above modifications and tweaked config files for my tastes I was able to get rid of all problems. When my computer is idle heads park and disk spins down, staying untouched for 6 minutes. When I'm doing something active, like watching a movie, my drive is constantly accessed and heads don't park needlessly. When I'm having a mix of the two (like active browsing, or doing something else) my heads unpark only 20-30 times per hour, which I consider very good. And best of all, my drive was not thermally abused and super clicks didn't happen. As a comparison, average temperature of my drive under Windows was 41 degrees Celsius (and never below), under Linux it was 34-36 degrees Celsius. I consider that the main issue with this bug is that laptop mode (as it is) DOES NOT WORK AT ALL. Please either fix acpid or fix laptop-mode.

[Bug 59695] Re: High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime
Some more info on the issue. I recently bought a new Samsung HM160HI and started having the issue with Load_Cycle_Count. I tried the solution with setting hdparm -B 255, but what I found is that my drive is already in that mode after reboot. So after hdparm -B 254 Load_Cycle_Count stopped increasing. But what I've found is that after this Load_Retry_Count starts increasing, with an extremely loud click once per several minues, which I found much worse than increasing Load_Cycle_Count. The real issue, it seems, is that something is constantly waking the disk up, even when disk shouldn't be touched. I've been playing with laptop-mode and a modified iotop.py (which shows actual bytes for each process in batch mode, skipping the ones that don't do any actual io), and found the following. When I set hdparm -B 255, and hdparm -S 4, the disk spins down after 20 seconds, however after a very short time (less than a minute) firefox writes something to disk and pdflush kicks in dropping in, even though /proc/meminfo shows only several kilobytes under Dirty, while my dirty ratio is 60 percent. Very strange. Now I suspected that there might be something going on with pagefile, so I swapoff my swap partition and try all this again. Now pdflush no longer kicks in immediately after firefox or other programs. But things get even more fishy. Even without any I/O activity (both my modified iotop.py and gkrellm show absolutely nothing) disk spins down, but shortly after that spins up again. Why would my disk spin up again without any I/O? Judging from increasing Load_Retry_Count, it seems to me that my drive parks heads with a purpose (and when you don't let it, something bad happens, i.e. that horrible click as if heads drop from somewhere). But what's wrong here is that something pulls them back. Something is constantly touching the drive when it shouldn't. p.s. I don't have trackerd installed, and during my tests the only processes that showed up were either none, or firefox and [pdflush]. -- High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59695 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Because of this X does not start, not even in safe mode (it's kind of funny, actually, as the last time I tried debian graphical installer had no such issues, and ubuntu is supposed to be based on debian!). In feisty I used the following commands to start the live cd: $ sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx $ sudo depmod -a $ sudo aticonfig --initial --overlay-type=Xv --resolution=0,1280x800 $ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart Fails the first time $ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart X starts However with hardy alpha 5 all I got is white screen. Something is getting more and more screwed up with ubuntu.

[Bug 119730] Re: Slow SATA performance
Pinepain, it's very kind of you to rtfm me without actually reading my comment, thank you very much. First of all there were no 'a lot of small files' not in any single of my tests. I always used large files, 250-350MB in size. And ntfs is not stone age, it is currently used by my windows partition, and the big file for testing was pagefile.sys (surprising, no? it's also not heavily fragment there). Also never in my tests I actually used to copy to hdd, because then it would be read+write speed (minus a delta because some data would stay in cache), writing data to /dev/null can have a small delta (dependent on buffer size though), but still, difference between 5MB/s and 20MB/s [on the same system with different files, one was downloaded with ktorrent (heavily fragmented and slow), another downloaded with wget (shows excellent throughput, supposedly it's not fragmented)] is not imaginary, don't you think? And I doubt I have a spare connector in my laptop's hard drive bay. My experience with gutsy (after dist-upgrading from feisty) was extremely crawling and painful under even slightest disk load for past two months (and not just mine I assume, reading relevant bug reports), heavy fragmentation can also explain why people stop experiencing performance problems after they do clean reinstall. P.S. Yes, I upgraded my bios and found that I do have those options in there, but I don't know if that would help at all, because I wiped my ubuntu installation, sorry.

[Bug 96676] Re: [feisty] function keys don't work in gnome-terminal
I don't use mc, but have read that it stores key-definitions per $TERM with its learn-keys feature. That may be what's confusing it. God, you are right!! I was looking at config in my home directory and was already going to say that it's not like that, when an idea striked me that maybe there's some system-wide config. And yet is it, /etc/mc/mc.lib: ... [terminal:xterm] ... # Sequences below are for Konsole, which also sets TERM=xterm kf11=\eO2P kf12=\eO2Q kf13=\eO2R kf14=\eO2S ... So that's why I'm seeing it working in an unexpected way when terminfo entries are correct! So for anyone interested, there are two choices: 1) recompile vte with this change reverted: http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/vte/trunk/src/keymap.c?r1=1341r2=1391 2) create myxterm.ti like I displayed below (or grab full terminfo.src at invisible-island.net, mentioned earlier by Thomas), compile it with tic, then add appropriate entries to /etc/mc/mc.lib, using \e[1;2P...\e[1;2S for xterm and \eO1;2P...\eO1;2S for gnome-terminal (you can specify both). Sadly, if I'm not missing something, only one of these notations (xterm or gnome-terminal) can be specified in myxterm.ti file (infocmp and ncurses seem to use only one of them). The problem with solution 1 is that xterm will still stay misunderstood on your system (though I'm not using xterm, thus I'm personally going with number 1 at the moment, to retain compatibility with konsole). The problem with solution 2 is that xterm, gnome-terminal and konsole are all three mutually incompatible in this regard. You can make mc understand all three, but it's not going to be universal and might not work with other programs. :-/ Now, to me it seems that current vte behavior is a bug and should match xterm. And most of all konsole should do that too, or stop pretending to be xterm! Below is an example of my final myxterm.ti: xterm-kfpc-13-16-xterm|kf13..kf16 for xterm, kf13=\E[1;2P, kf14=\E[1;2Q, kf15=\E[1;2R, kf16=\E[1;2S, xterm-kfpc-13-16-gterm|kf13..kf16 for gnome-terminal, kf13=\EO1;2P, kf14=\EO1;2Q, kf15=\EO1;2R, kf16=\EO1;2S, xterm|X11 terminal emulator with correct kf-sequences, use=xterm-kfpc-13-16-xterm, use=xterm-debian, Here you can choose between xterm and gnome-terminal in the use statement.

[Bug 96676] Re: [feisty] function keys don't work in gnome-terminal
I'd like to second steviant's request. For a long time this bug forced me to use konsole instead of gnome-terminal, just for ability to press Shift+F4. Unfortunately with konsole Shift+Left/Shift+Right don't work (which work under gnome-terminal), so editing text files is not of much use. It's really annoying that I can get one part of a functionality with only one terminal and the other half only with other. :-/ I've just downloaded ncurses sources and finally found why Thomas Dickey's example didn't make sense (and didn't compile). There's no xterm-xf86-v44. Ubuntu actually uses xterm-debian. So the first attempt was like this: $ cat myxterm.ti xterm|X11 terminal emulator with correct kf-sequences, kf13=\EO1;2P, kf14=\EO1;2Q, kf15=\EO1;2R, kf16=\EO1;2S, use=xterm-debian, ^D $ tic myxterm.ti $ mc And then I figured that now Shift+F2 acts like Shift+F4. Either Midnight Commander expects kf14 to be Shift+F4 (which doesn't seem to be correct, I'll show later why), or something is fishy here. Now I made it like this: $ cat myxterm.ti xterm|X11 terminal emulator with correct kf-sequences, kf11=\EO1;2P, kf12=\EO1;2Q, kf13=\EO1;2R, kf14=\EO1;2S, use=xterm-debian, ^D $ tic myxterm.ti $ mc Now it works in mc, but it seems extremely, EXTREMELY, wrong to me. What do I actually see when I run konsole and try pressing Shift+F1..F4? $ cat ^[O2P^[O2Q^[O2R^[O2S $ echo $TERM xterm Now, if you look at xterm+pcfkeys in ncurses-5.6+20070716/debian/xterm.ti you'll see that ^[O2S (Shift+F4) is mapped to kf16, yet when I press Shift+F4 in Midnight in konsole, it works correctly! So what's exactly happening? I clearly can't sanely map kf11...kf14 to be Shift+F1...F4 just for midnight (I assume something else will likely break then).

[Bug 96676] Re: [feisty] function keys don't work in gnome-terminal
Thomas, I don't seem to understand you. I just grabbed and compiled terminfo.src you gave and while it helped with xterm (except that it's just like with my previous attempts, Shift+F2 starts a new file in mc instead of Shift+F4) it didn't work in gnome-terminal (because of \E[ and \EO difference I pointed before). However I just recompiled libvte with changing #if 1 to #if 0 and gnome-terminal now works correctly (Shift+F4 now starts a new file in mc, with original ubuntu terminfo, no other modifications were needed). The change in the source only affects addition of 1; and shouldn't make any difference in regards to Shift+F2/Shift+F4 (since I didn't change any resources), should it? If it does then I'm clearly missing something big here and I'd like to know where I could read what this 1; actually means at all? P.S. I'm not affiliated with ubuntu/debian development yet (merely a new user who recently returned back to linux after moving to windows a decade ago), so I can't even suggest anything going or not going upstream.

[Bug 131094] Re: Heavy Disk I/O harms desktop responsiveness
I can confirm that this is unrelated to trackerd at all (I had it uninstalled as soon as I was constantly running into it), and while observing memory consumption lately I can see that although I have 1GB or RAM, system monitor shows that only around 600-700MB of it are being used, and used swap is raising with time. Now I observe that it is 700MB of memory and 597MB swap occupied somehow, even while update-manager downloads packages my letters come out now with a very noticeable delay. The weirdest thing is that system monitor shows only one big consumer, firefox-bin (which it shows as 254MB only), and others are no bigger than 50MB. Top on the other hand shows unrealistically huge numbers for most applications (Xorg: 247m VIRT 184m SWAP, synaptic: 188m VIRT, 150m SWAP, firefox-bin: 915m VIRT, 661m SWAP, etc). I don't understand what's going on, but as far as I've seen before, as soon as synaptic starts installing updates it's just a complete showstopper for me. Disk thrashing and memory usage seem to suggest that my system is actually swapping BADLY (as if I don't touch my PC while it's updating and then come back all applications slowly get unswapped, even after disk activity is gone). Could it be a memory leak somewhere? Or what is it, what can it be? It's disk activity related (copying big files, installing packages, other activities do trigger slowdowns, even on -rt kernel), but in my case it also seems to be memory related, at least the more time passes, the more it starts looking like swapping issue. My current uptime is 4 days 13:39, that's why it's gone too bad. Also I'm using linux-rt on amd64, though I'm thinking to move back to linux-general after the next reboot. Anyone else noticed something strange with memory consumption? P.S. When I first moved from WinXP to Feisty I was so laughing at WinXP as Feisty took just above only quarter of my memory.
