Debian :: Incorrect RAM Memory Display ?
Aug 14, 2009I have this issue, with Lenny 2.6.26-2-486, that the Gnome 2.22.3 System Monitor displays only 885.0 MiB of the total 2048 memory I have installed on my system.

View 2 RepliesFresh install of Debian 6.0 (squeeze) and the memory shows 3.8 GB. I have 6 sticks of 2 gb on the board.
Pertinent dmesg lines: AMI BIOS detected: BIOS may corrupt low RAM, working around it.
3083MB HIGHMEM available.
883MB LOWMEM available.
Bios tests 12 gb of ram fine.
I currently have installed 2 GiB RAM memory on a Dell laptop with Ubuntu 10.04 release. Today, as I was playing kmahjongg, suddenly my whole screen became black with a small " _ " symbol in the top left corner. My cursor showed up, however I wasn't able to use it. Inputing something with keyboard or trying to enter in tty didn't worked, so I restarted the machine with the power button. Now, when I check the gnome-system-monitor, it shows up that I have 1,8 GiB RAM memory available, instead of 1,9 GiB how it used to be.

I understand ubuntu has been targeted to notebook user this time but I am on desktop system with Intel Graphics and g33 motherboard and I want to know the procedure to configure xorg.conf for this purpose.

View 9 Replies View RelatedNow that I have system-config-display installed I tried to create a new xorg.conf so I can have 3D acceleration, etc using the correct driver. But the xorg.conf file generated does not work. It locks up the laptop (Toshiba Satellite A45-S250). I don't understand why this happens because the Fedora 12 Live CD (for i686) works find on boot.
I tried looking for the xorg.conf file after booting the live CD but it doesn't exist. I don't understand what is happening here. Also, when I used an older version of Fedora (8 I think) the X driver was i810 which worked fine. It gave me all the 3D acceleration, etc. When I installed F11 it gave me a dumbed down install using the VESA driver. What happened to the i810 driver? Why does the intel driver not work? Why does the Live CD work great but an installed system not?
Necessary info: Toshiba Satellite A45-S25 Fedora 12 (preupgraded from F11)
What command would I use with Top to sort what is displayed when typing top to see the virual memory in a vm? So I am currently running ubunut 10.10 in a vm and I want to run top and display the virtual memory, what sort command would I include with top?

I can get that via 'top', but I want the same info in 'ps -ef ' so that I can pipe the output to 'grep {my process name}'.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a large body of code (2000+ lines at this point) with lots of global variables, and a handful of locals. I would like to know is there a way to print out all global variables in use at a particular moment in time either from the debugger (ideally) or in line?
Basically I have something like this for the menu
1. Do thing 1
2. Do thing 2
3. Do thing 3
4. Do thing 1 and 2
5. Do thing 1 and 3
6. Do thing 1, 2 and 3
The problem is, as you select something from the menu again after you finish an option, the globals are still set and I'd like to clear them. If I had a list of all of them, it be easy to copy and paste and set them before the program ran another entry again. Suggestions? I'm aware of reset [a-z], but all of my vars are uppercase, and I would upset INC, and other upper case built-ins.
Code: Select all:~$ su
Password: #Typed user password
su: Authentication failure
~$ su

The file does open but with a warning in red saying i could harm my system. Had almost got everything configured just as like it, tried adding a custom action (open as administrator) to Thunar and my house of cards collapsed around me.
Debian 8 xfce, single user account, passwords and user names are single characters so it's a given there's no typing error.
Code: Select all:~# cd ..
:/home# cd ..
:/# mkdir -p /root/.local/share/
:/# touch /root/.local/share/recently-used.xbel
:/# exit
exit

Got another window prompting me for password, gave "Incorrect password...try again"
installed squeeze, but top keeps reporting 0.00 most of the time, and def it's wrong cause we have another server same hardware but lenny, and its over 2.00 same load. what can i check or do to fix this? thx

I am trying to setup 2-factor authentication for SSH with PAM. Its working well, but if the password is incorrect, it does not ask for validation code, but rather asks for the password again. Any way not to warn about an incorrect password?

apt-get install apache2 php5 mysql-server
Then i installed Moodle 2.0 blá, blá ... It's working fine from localhost. When try to access this server from other host i get:
"incorrect access detected, this server may be accessed only through [URL] address,"
Apache is working fine because i get the "It work's!" message.
Having been using squeeze on my primary system for some time, I decided to install it on my media center PC. After doing a clean install I lost sound (another post) and my maximum video resolution dropped to 1280x1024. I was previously getting 1920x1080 (native) resolution under lenny on this box. So it's a mystery to me why I'm not getting that now. As you can see, the nvidia module is loaded:
# lsmod | grep nvidia
nvidia 9821382 0
i2c_core 12570 2 i2c_piix4,nvidia
PS--This was installed the "debian way" via module assistant.
I have problem with my hard drive on Debian. I connected my hard drive as a local drive (NFS) in to Mac OS. Later i deleted some files on that hard drive from my mac but the free space didnt change. It looks like these files moved in to trash or something but i dont know where is it.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just installed Debian on a new computer yesterday, it's more or less a fresh install. This morning I launched Iceweasel and it brought my computer to it's knees. I ran top, and found out that there was a process called "Web Content" using up 30 gigs of memory! Further experimentation shows that Iceweasel is fine until I open up a tab or two, and then it quickly begins consuming all my memory (I have 24 gigs) and swap space. I'm currently using Chrome, which is working fine, but I'd really prefer Iceweasel.

I have a computer with 16GB of ram. At the moment, top shows all the RAM is taken, (NOT by cache), but the RAM used by the various processes is very far from 16GB.I have seen this problem several times, but I don't understand what is happening.My only remedy so far has been to reboot the machine.

View 8 Replies View RelatedWhen Debian OS is booted in to memory, this is a clean boot, because with the iso on the DVD can not be tampered with, but someone who has hacked your modem, can target your IP and can place a keylogger in the RAM memory, side-by-side of the OS, does not necessarily need to know zero-day-exploits of Debian (if there are any). Is that correct?
Moreover the trick, once known and automated, can be repeated every time you boot from the Debian Live DVD?
Today I installed Lenny on a new server. The server didn't have any CD-Rom, so I tried putting the net install on a memory stick using unetbootin. The install went fine, but the problem was that the memory stick became sda and two SATA disks in the server became sdb and sdc.When I then tried to remove the stick, the SATA disks became sda and sdb, and it would not boot, because it had written the MBR on the stick.It hurried a little bit, so I had to take out a CD player from another computer, and connect it inside the server to get Lenny installed.But it would be cool if it was possible to install with the stick. And no more waste of CD-Rom players that will be used only once.

I am calling the insertNode() function with seq = 'MISSISSPPI$' and alphabets = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ$'
Code:
Weird behaviour I should mention is that when I check for NULL pointer in node->child[index], the unassigned values are not null anymore, they point to arbitary memory.
we found that if we use 'top' to show the memory usage of a server (SuSe Linux 10), we can get virtual memory usage as well as 'Resident memory' usage. For virtual mem or a particular process, it is around 1.1GB, which is large but for resident memory, it only consumes 300MB. Are there anyone who knows what the differences are? I would also like to know whether the difference (1.1GB - 300MB) = 800MB are actually available for use by other applications in the system.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am monitoring physical memory in a server I administer, and my hardware provider told me they had increased physical memory size to 4Gb... However, using several tools (free -m; top; dmesg | grep Memory; grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo I discovered that I actually have 3Gb, not 4... But, my doubt comes from the fact that dmesg | grem Memory tells me I have 3103396k/4194304k available The first number is effectively 3Gb, but the second one, is 4! so, why I am looking at this two different numbers?
