After running Thunderbird, or other X applications between my server and my workstation, processes, notably dbus, remain behind on the server. Over time, they pile up, response becomes so poor I must restart the server to sweep them away. How can this be avoided or better dealt with than an occasionala reboot of the server, clearly not an optimal solution.

View 9 Replies View RelatedThe following message comes up when I boot up: Logging in user Warning: Cannot open ConsoleKit session: Unable to open session: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 0. When I press OK, the system completes the start up and everything looks normal. But when I try to connect to internet, I get the following message:
KNetworkManager cannot start because the installation is misconfigured. System DBUS policy does not allow it to provide user settings; contact your system administrator or distribution. KNetworkManager will not start automatically in future. If I reboot the system, I logg in successfully. So far the problem has appeared approximately upon every second time I boot up. Rebooting the system seems to take care of it.
Don't know what info is of interest. I'm using
Opensuse 11.2
KDE 4.4.2 (Factory)
After upgrade from 4.4.1 to 4.4.2 it worked fine for a week or so.
My system, setup as a server, has 9 kjournald processes and each one has many worker threads. FOr the most part they just sit idle but I do see one or two occasionally activate with disk activity (which you would expect).
However is 9 processes normal or am I getting stale processes that need to be looked into?
Just now Rhythmbox has stopped working. I can't restart it, so I thought I could kill the process to start it again. Is there something like the windows task manager in openSUSE or another way to list all processes and to kill one? I googled an found a few old threads saying that there is a performance monitor which is able to to that, but I can't find that either.

To speedup the working of all processes as follows:
add to the boot line as grub starts: noirqbalance elevator=cfg
yast2 is more responsif and the processes run on all the cpu's not 3 and 1 as with irqbalance
speedup yast2: export aria2c
result: Gkrellm with a load as little as 5% overall i see all the cpu's working
My problem is, firefox (3.6.12 and 4.0 beta 7) freezes for seconds/minutes and enters in disk sleep state (the usb-storage process too). My system is an EeePC 701, openSUSE 11.3 x86, with the /home and swap partitions on a SD card.

Or something like that. after a CTRL+ALT+DEL and a press on enter during the driver load, it all works fine. Is that just a standard fault, or should I do something? If so, what?
can any tell me how can I configure OpenSuse for login session (kde/gnome) using a certificate in a SmartCart (spanish DNIe).

I have a very bad attempt at hashing the components of an tcp session to assign/locate the session in a hash table bucket. I am pretty sure that it has a very high collision rate and when there are a very large number of tcp sessions my application is having to search a long linked list to find the session within the bucket.
All the hashing functions I have found take a single string input where I need to input several integers and hash them into a single result. My guess is that any real hashing function is going to produce better results than what I am currently doing.

I have a couple of videos that end with the extension: .mp4.dap the videos, apparently, were .mp4 but instead are not .mp4.dap where .dap are DarkAdapted Presets File. arkAdapted is a software which applies a red or green filter to the screen to help your eyes get dark adapted.
I thought that Linux in general & Ubuntu in particular allows changing the video format by simply changing the extension name, but this doesn't seem to work now; i recall it once worked sometime ago. Am I mistaken or what ?

View 12 Replies View RelatedMy Lpatop has a 300G hard drive. It came, as many do pre-installed with a Window OS, in this case Vista 32-bit Home Prem. I had partitioned the hard drive to give a C drive of 97.7GB (Partition 2 /dev/sda 2/Host), a partition for applications and programs, D of 48.8GB (Partition 3 /dev/sda3) and a third partition, E for Documents, etc. of 148GB (Partition 5 /dev/sda 5 media/doc), which on scanning seems to be a sub set of a partition Partition 4 W95 Ext d LBA dev/sda 4.......There is another partition, Partition 1 /dev/sda1 and is called WinRE and is of 2.80GB.All are NTFS except for the Partition 4Windows works fine and I have no problems, but when I use Ubuntu I get errors on startup. In the first instance it will not install the latest Kernal and it gives a Battery Management error in GNOME. I get Storage warning messages all the time, which I believe is the cause of the problems. See enclosed.
I am assuming that the disk space issue is in Host and or Home. Other than all the operational data and applications I do NOT use the Ubuntu filing system, rather the Partition 5 which I created solely for this purpose, so it's not a case of deleting files, it is purely how Ubuntu created itself on install and its operational requirements.The problem is resulting in no space or ability to do updates and new installs, and Kernal and Gnome issues.

I have a process which runs for a while and then due to some unknown reason ends abruptly without giving a core. I tried looking in the logs and after watching for a pattern am still not 100% sure of the reason. So I was wondering if there is a way to catch the signal which ends the process and print some values in the handler function. I have called the handler for SIGTERM and SIGABRT functions but none of these are getting triggered. I looked online and did not find any other option. Can you please suggest if tehre is any other signal that can be caught for this unknown abrupt termination.

xfce 4.4
Qt 3.3.8
KDE 3.5.7
KGet v. 0.8.5
I've just installed all of the packages in disks 1 and 2 of the slack 12.0 distro so, among them, I have the slack series kde/ installed. I run xfce as the desktop environment, which is able to run KDE apps. In main menu>Network there is kget, a download manager and also supposedly a p2p client. I ran it and it said "It is the 1st time you run kget. Do you want to make the default download manager?". I replied "No". As nothing happened I restarted X (the startx command ends up running xfce), ran kget again, and it made the same question, which this time I answered in the affirmative.
Again nothing happened. So I tried to download some file from the web, in the hope that a kget window would open. But no window opened nor anything else happened! In the console, I did 'ps -e' and there it was, however. So I began the search for documentation. First I ran khelpcenter, and was presented with the kget help. It was all about menus. However, typing kget --help-all in a console, gives almost two screens of information. And I tried several commands, from the GUI, following the syntax displayed by this command, but it was no use. So, I finally had to fall back on LQ, like so many times.
Is there a session manager I can use with 10.10? I would like to try Openbox but am not sure how to select it as a startup session. I would like to be able to choose between kde, gnome and openbox.
