I boot it and let him stay alone without even log-in,then thru my local LAN I access the server with SSH or FTP, everything just works fine,but if I just let the server idle for a while, I stop being able to login to the server again.I get no response, and when I go check it , monitor is black, like its sleeping,Then I just press a key on the keyboard, it wakes, and I can login from the server itself.so it does not crash.But login from another computer still doesn´t work,I have to reboot the Linux server to work, and all this idle thing starts over again.
After some idle time Slackware hangs up/freezes. When, for an example, i turn on music i can hear it on idle time but after some time music still plays but i'm losing picture (monitor detects no signal), num lock is locked, led on keyboard are turned on but won't turn off while pressing num lock. I've switched off power saving options in Slackware and on bios setup.
My spec is:
X4 620 (without overclocking) AMD 760G (Radeon HD 3000) Catalyst 11.5 for Radeon graphic.
BTW - computer works fine with Windows. Also, with Slackware i can work for an hours, many hours and everything is fine but as soon as i leave it for some amount of time = it hangs/freezes. There is something wrong with hibernation. Not always computern is turned off correctly. TV is switched off, slackware logged off but i hear drives working and cooler fans. It should be switched off completly.
I had noticed that my workstation (running debian testing) is having a constant load of about 0.9 (+/-0.1), even while the system is completly idle.The system starts with a normal load and then goes up to about 0.9 within a few minutes and then will stay there forever (well it can get higher, but never lower). This is the load graph after the system runs some time: URL....
I have tried everything I know to find the cultprint but there is no cpu usage and no io usage. I even have disabled the desktop and still have this problem.Also I have tried booting an older Kernel (4.1 and 3.16) with no difference in the load.Here is some information about my system:
Code: Select all» uname -a Linux localhorst 4.2.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.2.3-2 (2015-10-14) x86_64 GNU/Linux.
This is my first day with Debian, I have used other distros, and am a long time linux user. My HP D 1600 series is recognized, but when I try to print a test msg. it says sent, but the printer remains idle. I have tried everything I know. When I run the trouble shooter I get this. /// /usr/lib/cups/backend/hp failed////
In the past when having a printer problem I have installed HPLIP-gui and removed the printer then re-installed it. That has not worked and I cannot even remove the printer.
Can anyone explain the difference between IOWAIT%/IDLE%/LOAD AVG? We have a 3 servers (oracle rac) attached to a SAN. When we added another CPU to our 3rd server, the IOWAIT across the oracle rac dropped a lot. We used to get pretty high IOWAIT % before. So I don't really understand how the extra CPU could do this. I thought the IOWAIT % is high because the server is waiting for the SAN, so I thought the SAN was the bottleneck. So I don't really understand the difference between the 3 things (iowait, idle and load avg).
I am a newbie when it comes to linux, but know a little (the little bit of dangerous stuff).I have set up a home web server for when I am testing website using PHP, mysql and other funky stuff. This is a reflection of my production server as far as I can with my limited knowledge.I am also using this box to learn more about the Linux operating system and I doing this slowly. Before I installed the GUI (Gnome) I was using a text based server, this was working fine and running absolutey fine and never disconnecting. This has been fine and working 24/7 for around a month.
At the weekend (just gone) I ran the following at terminal # apt-get install gnome
This gave me a GUI so I could try some other things.
When the computer is idle the network card seems to drop the connection, Im trying to see after how long it does this. I have seen this work fine after an hour, but after a night, the network has been dropped. This is a hard wired connection to the router.first time I thought the PC had froze so rebooted the PC, but the second time, I plugged a mouse into it and noticed the the network icon had changed, after right clicking on it, i noticed that It had dropped the connection. After clicking the "reconnect" option it is back up and running.
I just installed Debian 6.0 IA64 on my HP zx6000 and it pegs the CPU's when doing absolutely nothing but sitting at the desktop. I searched around on Google and found that there is a bug report: 537572. I was just wondering what the status was on that. Is there currently a fix or workaround?
I am trying to switch over my NAS from Win7 x64 to Debian 8.x Jessie. I have run into a few issues with the power management. When Idle my NAS should be consuming 25W, however it was consuming much more. The more hard disks I mounted, the higher the wattage.
I have followed a few tutorials but that has only been a partial succes.
Code: Select all # hdparm -C /dev/sd[b-y]
/dev/sdb: Â drive state is:Â active/idle
/dev/sdc: Â drive state is:Â active/idle
/dev/sdd: Â drive state is:Â standby
/dev/sde: Â drive state is:Â active/idle
/dev/sdf: Â drive state is:Â standby
All the drives can spindown but they are not doing that now that they are mounted.
Now there are two suggestions I found but both I was unable to implement.
The first suggestion was to mount using "noatime". However I do not know how to rewrite fstab because I am using ntfs for now (at least untill I get it working).
Code: Select all# /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a # device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices # that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5). # # /dev/mapper/bugattidebian--vg-root / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
[Code] .....
Not sure where to add the noatime there...
Also I am using samba on all those drives. This guide suggested a code change but the example does not line up with my configuration script.
I keep noticing disk activity every roughly 1 to 3 seconds even though there is "nothing" going on. Of course, I run a number of "system" and "user" application packages - Apache2, MySQL, Browsers (Opera, IceWeasel), an SMB client and server, OpenOffice 3.0RC8 being the most prominent ones. I wonder what might be the cause for this constant disk activity which happens even when none of the applications do any noticeable work at all. Is there a way to determine the process that does those disk read/writes?
I'm having some problems with banshee that started about 6 months ago. Banshee remains idle and does not play any type of music file. I've tried installing and selectively installing Gstreamer codecs with no success. I'm running stretch.
i've gotten my fedora 12 to the point where i can run python3 scripts from command line and can call up python 2.6.2 idle with the command 'idle' from command line. what command will call up python3 (3.1.2 to be exact) idle?
I've started facing the weirdest problem. I have to restart the ethernet interface a couple of times a day and everytime i do that the server locks up completely and i have to hard reboot it.info: recently shifted to a new server, all new components and new installation, OS version CentOS 5.6
I own a rather large website/forum devoted to Scuba utilizing vBulletin. The problem is that its become INCREDIBLY slow as of late. I have three Ubuntu web servers under a single Ubuntu load balancer and they draw from a CentOS 5 DB server running MYSQL. Here are my concerns:
-I am thinking that they are all 32 bit rather than 64 bit. -I am thinking that the problem is an IO issue.
I'm using ProFTPd as my FTP server on a CentOS 5 box. Since updating to version 1.3.3c, I seem to have very specific problems. Connections work quite fine with about any FTP client out there, including the basic ftp command from the Linux prompt. However, when trying to connect to that server with LFTP, things go wrong. When connecting, all I get is [Connecting] then [Logging in...] and then nothing. I have to add that SSL is forced off in lftp.conf (I read it could be the problem). I sometimes get a counter for reconnection, but it never works.
The command I use in lftp is : open -u <user>,<pass> <server_ip>, the ls for lftp to establish the connection. I don't see anything at all in the server's log. I just see "FTP session opened" and "FTP session closed" in /var/log/messages" and nothing in /var/log/secure. I can give you a strace if needed. Please keep in mind that the server WORKS with anything but LFTP and NCFTP (which I also tried).
I am ClearCase Admin, new to Linux administration and our development environment is in linux servers. I have found that our development server which is RHEL 3 (also ClearCase client) hangs when user gives find command.After some time of execution of the find command the server hangs. We have to hard-boot the server.Is this the normal behaviour of the Servers? This server which I am talking about is highly used.Sometimes 120 or more terminals will be opened and few compilation will be happening in the server. And same single user some times opens multiple terminals and works simulataneously.We have been monitoring the server and found out that during the workdays CPU usage % goes very high.
Working with 8.2 DVD installation for about 5 days, Debian newbie. As subject says, screen goes dark and hangs indefinitely.
This guide: [URL]... similar to others I've read. I've done everything there to section: Status and Logs of Services, and that's as far as I've gotten.
Guide suggested posting some files, so here they are:
Code: Select all# # Grub.cfg # # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE # # It is automatically generated by grub-mkconfig using templates # from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub #
Under GNOME, the X server hangs about every hour under regular use. When this happens, I can usually move the mouse pointer, but nothing else. I can't click anything, I can't type anything, etc. I have CTRL-ALT-Backspace configured to restart the X server, and that works if I do it before it hangs: after it hangs, that doesn't do anything. The only thing I can do right now is reboot the entire machine.How can I figure out why it is hanging? Also, can I somehow restart the X server without rebooting the entire machine?
I have vsFTPd running on my server. If I connect via 127.0.0.1, then all is well and I can use the "ls" command to get a directory listing. However when trying this remotely, the FTP client hangs and I do not get a directory listing.
I'm working on a custom Debian "spin" (one customized for personal/work use). I did this once before with an Ubuntu build, but attempting it with Debian has loaded me with a steady flow of walls (everyone loves debugging!). Despite a variety of approaches, none of my images seem to boot. I've tried the following with both SysV and systemd. the search results I find are vague, at best. I'll attempt to categorize and explain this as intelligently as possible.
A variety of ISOs were tried in Virtualbox, so these are the errors they're yielding; I'm currently down on removable media since I loaned my flash disks to a couple students for their finals, so I can't boot that way until Tuesday. I really hope that the error is something that can be identified regardless of whether or not I'm using a virtual environment.
Method 1: This Guide This appealed to me the most at first because I run a stripped-the-hell-down version of Ubuntu on my work laptop. (Wheezy/Haswell yielded unfavorable results, and at the time Jessie's SysV compatibility was undesirable, but I'll probably switch back by the end of the week if possible.) I have a feeling that this guide may simply be obsolete, or maybe I'm just neglecting a crucial step. Here's the output: a lovely kernel panic.
Method 2: refractasnapshot With it properly configured (and with syslinux-utils installed -- head-on-a-stick and fsmithred), I tried two different approaches: the first, I ran it within the chroot environment mentioned above; the second, I created a Virtualbox build and ran it within that. Both yielded the same errors:
For each, I received two complains: about piix_smbus and no valid rapl domains, and the system hangs indefinitely (ie, all night). Following some search results, I blacklisted i2c_piix4 and paevm, then rebuilt the image, and mounted it in VirtualBox. At boot:
Code: Select allEDD: Error 0c00 reading sector 276375 No DEFAULT or UI configuration directive found! boot: _
i got an asdl-modem and a router behind that. before that i just had the asdl-modem and connected with pppoeconf. i start the OS and run apt-get update. all is fine. i open iceweasel and it takes very long till a site is loaded. now and then it can't find the site at all. i rerun apt-get update and it hangs.
I installed skype for linux from skype site which is a 32bit application. I followed the instructions from this link: [URL] It is true that skype was installed and I could launch it. But during log on - it hangs.
running skype through terminal gave me this error/warning messages:
I am running Squeeze (Gnome desktop) and I'm experiencing some problems with Iceweasel. My problem is that sometimes Iceweasel just hangs when I launch it. I can see the cursor blinking 2-3 times in the adress bar and then it just locks up. I have tried a few different versions of iceweasel, both from stable (squeeze though), experimental and now a package from http://mozilla.debian.net/packages/ with iceweasel 4 beta.
All of them behaves the same way. They work for a while and then suddenly locks up when launched. The only way to get going again is to kill the process and delete the .mozilla directory. It is possible to launch the --safe-mode though but nothing with this mode lets me change anything to get a normal session going.' Also, it doesn't matter if I have extensions installed or not, it still behaves the same way with zero of them installed. How would I go about to debug this? If I launch iceweasel from the command line I get no output but I'm sure there is a way to get some more info to work with.
Also when the machine boots up I get a message saying something about IOMMU should be set in BIOS, but I can not find any such setting in BIOS. I do not know if this is related to the hanging.
I thought I had a hard drive problem at first so I tried a different hard drive. Same problem.
The mother board is an ASRock N68C-S.
One other thing, where is the file located that boot up messages are written to?
I have a computer that is off the internet. It usually works right since I took great care to make it as 'clean' as possible from outside forces.Lately it just hangs whenever GDM is about to start.How to troubleshoot?
I tried a live CD SystemRescueCD, it works even the desktop environment works. so I e2fsck the partitions of the hard drive okay, memory test/checked the 1.2GBRAM -- passed other than these, I have no clue how to troubleshoot.Oh, I also used an nvidia driver which I forgot how I did it because it was installed almost a year ago.
Thunar, for some reason, always seems to become non-response and consumes 100% CPU after I open a certain folder on my external hard drive. What could be the cause of this? I've tried opening the same folder on Windows and it didn't give me any problem, so I'm assuming that the problem lies within Thunar, and not the external hard drive itself.
