General :: Slowing Down Fan In MSI MS-7418 - How To Speed It Up
Sep 5, 2010This little Atom-based unit works fine with Linux, but its fan is running at full-speed all the time.So I figured maybe lm_sensors could ajust its speed dynamically, but "sensors", "fancontrol", and "pwmconfig" all fail to work, even though the modules required for this motherboard are up and running:
Code:
# dpkg -L lm-sensors
[...]
/usr/sbin/fancontrol

Ubuntu Networking :: Why Does Wireless Speed Keep Slowing
May 13, 2010I recently got karoo broadband installed, the speed is normally 8mbps but the longer I am connected to my router the slower it gets, I have to disconnect and reconnect to the router to get back to full speed, is this due to a bad wireless driver or do I need new drivers or a better router.

Jan 3, 2011I installed on this laptop two OS : Windows XP SP3 with drivers for M11 from Toshiba download site Fedora 14 64 bits I have no problem running Windows but sometimes when I run Fedora I hear fan starting to run at full speed then computer hangs. When this occurs, I must power off it using switch then reboot and I lost my work. I try to run Memtest86 during a full night and I did not get any error or hang.
Is there somebody who already installed Fedora 14 on Toshiba Tecra M11? kernel is 2.6.35.10-74.fc14.x86_64 and my graphic card worked fine with hardware acceleration out of the box.

General :: Name Resolution Slowing Down Authentication?
Feb 23, 2010As mentioned in another of my recent posts, I have set up a small network for my job, in which I am utilizing 4 Servers running Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope Gnome GUI and Ubuntu Server running underneath (yes I need a GUI for what I am doing). However, I am having a problem when bringing Ubuntu out of "locked" state, and any time that I am required to authenticate (i.e. sudo bash). After I type in my password, everything hangs for a good 3+ minutes.
To test this, I disconnected the Ubuntu Servers from the network, and I tried to authenticate again. With the server off the network, authentication did not hang, and the GUI came up in seconds. Also, I checked my syslog and memory utilization and both are well within acceptable range that they would not be causing sluggish performance.
With all of this said, I believe that there is some kind of resolution going on when trying to authenticate while the servers are connected to the network (i.e. Kind of like how doing a traceroute in a cmd prompt in Windows without the "-d" takes forever because of name resolution checking).I should also mention that my network DOES NOT have an internet connection by design.
General :: Squid Performance Slowing For HTML Webpages
Feb 4, 2010Is there a way to cache everything in squid except for the video files and mp3s?I had a problem before when I turned caching on and it made the performance very poor because it was trying to cache large video files.Right now, I have a problem on the server where even if iptraf lists ingoing+outgoing at 5000 kbits/sec viewing video works fine, but it takes a while for normal webpages to load and I can't figure out where the bottleneck is.

May 4, 2011I'll try to give out as much details as possible but this issue is very troubling.
I used to work with maverick until the final natty xubuntu went online the other day.
So I'm now working with Xubuntu 11.04 amd64 Since i started working with it im experiencing on my PC a serious overheat causing the computer to shut itself down and to my LED screen on the mother board to report more then 100C degrees of the cpu... this never happened before, and after some testing i found out that i only happens in full screen opengl game (Enemy territory- shuts itself after 6 minutes) and full screen flash movie playing (such as mega video- shuts itselfs after 10-15 minutes). I don't use stock cooling im using a arctic freezer 64 pro. and i clean my computer and put new thermal grease every couple of months (i also did it again after the problem started).
now for the specs: I'll just add that the only other thing changed is the fglrx drivers which i now use the 11.4 catalyst.

Ubuntu :: System Constantly Overheat / Why Is So - Fix It?
Apr 6, 2010I have installed Ubuntu from scratch several times since this problem started in Ubuntu 9*. It happens over and over again, and nothing seems to help.
My grasphic card is Nvidia 8500 GT. No matter what I try, to use no hardware drivers or use the recommended driver for Ubuntu my system shuts down without warning. I have used Ubuntu since 2004 and this is the worst bug I have ever experienced!
Is there a way to get rid of this thermal awareness program? Everything functioned fine until this stupid heat problem occurred. I want to turn it off but not to leave Ubuntu.
Lasdt night I was busy installing WinXP when my computer suddenly turned off, and Ubuntu could not be started again. Only show a screen with black and white parts and no desktop. Thats why I had to install Ubuntu again, and it turned off today while I use Firefox. Its the worst bug I have ever experienced.

Fedora :: Slowing Down My Mouse?
Mar 26, 2010I have got my Fedora12 setup working just beautifully... except the mouse!
A few months ago I invested in a very nice, expensive high performance mouse with very high resolution tracking. In Fedora 12 it is just too fast for me though, and I'm already well on the way to Carpel tunnel syndrome..
I have turned the sensitivity and acceleration down as far as they go but it is still too fast. The old ways of adjusting xorg parameters are, I understand it, now null and void due to the hotplugging HAL framework.
How to turn the speed of the mouse down on Fedora if the control panel doesnt turn it down enough.
OpenSUSE :: Ktorrent Slow And Slowing Down Internet Access?
Sep 5, 2011When I am running Ktorrent it takes about 30 seconds for a web page to open, in stead of 1 or 2 seconds. The download speed is very slow 200B/s and the status of most of the torrents is "Stalled". If have opened TCP and UDP ports 36477 4444 6881, 7881, 8881 and added them to the port forwarding list in my router. No difference.
View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Gnome-settings-daemon Crashing / Slowing Down
Nov 27, 2010about every second time when I start up my Ubuntu 10.4, my hard drive starts to work heavily. While it's doing so I see in the system monitor that the gnome-settings-daemon has the status 'uninterruptible'. After about 3 minutes the hard drive calms down and the status of gnome-settings-daemon switches to 'sleeping'. so from that I guess the heavy working of the hard drive is somehow related to that process. Sometimes gnome-settings-daemon seems to crash completely so that my theme is gone.
So is there a solution to that? because it's annoying that it slows down the system for about 3 minutes after start up. On the net I've found some old threads from 2004 and 2006 which describe crashing of gnome-settings-daemon. But there didn't seem to be a solution.
Ubuntu :: Dbus Daemon, Loads Of Activity (slowing Down Machine)?
Mar 24, 2010when calling 'top' dbus is having load of activity ('dbus-monitor --session') outputs also a lot of action (see attachement). this has effect that my machine is slowing down and normal work takes ages.I have no clue where the activity is coming from. I also had a look at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...or/+bug/441828. But there are no unnormal devices plugged in... (just keyboard + cordless mouse).when starting the machine the cpu load is ~9%. After a while (after 1 day) it goes up to 70-80%. the started applications do not change during that time. so i guess somewhere there is a leak.

Ubuntu Networking :: Rt2870sta Driver - Transfers Slowing And Stopping Regularly
Jul 28, 2011I have a tenda wireless adaptor running on 11.04 natty. The USB id is: 148F 3070
Using the already installed drivers rt2800usb it can connect to all 13 channels but is very flaky, transfers slowing and stopping regularly. The rt2870sta driver is a lot more stable, but it will only connect to channels 1-11, but I need to use channel 13 due to massive wifi congestion on other channels...
I've tried iwpriv but it says there are no ioctls for the device.
Is there any way to get the installed driver rt2870sta to scan and connect to channel 13?
I've also tried to install the latest drivers from the ralink website: rt2870sta says it can see all 14 channels, but fails to scan. I also tried rt3070 driver but I cannot insmod as there are errors...

View 3 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Need To Partition SSD For Best Speed?
Jan 26, 2011When I have installed Linux before I have used a partition scheme I found in a book once. That was supposed to give a better performing system.
/
/boot
/home
/tmp
/usr
/var
Should I drop that with SSD and just make one large partition or what will give best performance? At the moment I only have 8GB of ram. Will i prolong the speed and performance of SSD and avoid degradation by using say 4GB of the ram for Ram Drive? The idea is that as much as possible of temp files and writing will be done in Ram Drive rather then on the SSD will make Garbage Collection smoother as SSD will be run in raid0.

Feb 1, 2011I have recently upgraded to a M4A77TD motherboard and 8Gig of memory.I have a AMD Athlon(tm) II X4 645 Processor, and I cant say that I see much improvement over the one that died. I have noticed that the HDD light is constantly flashing so I wondered if I couldnt use some of the Ram to create a ramdrive to speed things up . So ..my question ... what should I put on my ramdrive? My own thoughts were the var and usr directories. I would load the ramdrive at startup (which would slow down my startup) And Rsync back again on shutdown.Has anyone done this? Ive had a look through the forum but cant see anything ..but my search terms may not be all that good.

At the moment I'm using genkernel under gentoo and just taking the default options (with a splash). This compiles for ages and takes a good while to load.The kind of things I'm looking for are advice on:Removing modules from the kernel that are not loaded during normal use.Core components which can (and should) be loaded as non-modules for speed of boot.How to save and load kernel options so they don't have to be repeated every time I want to compile a kernel.
