View 9 RepliesMy wife was using cryptkeeper fine, then she right-clicked the keys on the panel and did something, I'm not sure what. Anyway, the keys you click on to open the encrypted folder are gone and I can't figure out how to get them back. System monitor shows cryptkeeper running. I can kill it and re-start it, but the keys don't show on the panel. I'm running ubuntu 9.10.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am facing problem with the fresh installation of Fedora 11. (I have moved from Fedora 9). When I try to view videos on ..... or use the Cheese Webcam Booth, I get blurred lines on the screen and I am unable to see any video or pic.
Also I noticed that the when i go to System > Preferences>Display, it shows me UNKOWN MONIOR.
However, if I got to System>Administration>Display and enter the su password, it shows me correct monitor and the graphics driver.
I am not sure if my original is related to the Unknown Monitor.
I also tried to install Nvidia driver but it crashed the xserver and I had remove the driver.
My Monitor is LG 700E and Graphics card is from intel. as I am not able watch any video.
i have an old laptop running as a server it has no video output so i remote desktop to it when making changes using teamviewer. just went into the system monitor and processes to find that teamviewer.exe was running...this has kinda confused me as i thought .exe couldnt run unless using wine. which has to be configured in most cases too. i mean the program is working perfectly but why the .exe?

View 3 Replies View RelatedIn the gnome-system-monitor, on the "Processes" tab in the "View" menu, I should be able to choose between "Active Processes", "All Processes", and "My Processes". The chooses are all greyed out and I am only able to view "My Processes".I launched the app as root and had the same lack of choice.I also disabled SELinux and rebooted the machine.
View 4 Replies View RelatedTitle sums up my problem. Im running so many processes in Slackware, running KDE. I dont even run that many programs, and already its more than XP has (by a **** load). What is wrong here, and how do i kill a lot of the processes to cut down on my cpu usage by tons and cut down memory usage while still keeping everything the same?
Heres a picture of my system monitor - img651 DOT imageshack DOT us/img651/5994/systemmonitorz.png
I didnt put image tags because its a fullscreen.
The memory rises over time, when I restarted my computer it was up to 500 - 600 mbps. At the minute after its at 360.
there's this process on my system monitor that opens and closes by itself it does not have a description or a name and makes my hard drive spin like hell

View 1 Replies View RelatedI tried to do a scheduled software update several times today (8/20/11) and nothing seems to download, though I do get the "Downloading" PackageKit dialog message (the System Monitor shows practically no network activity). In between tries I downloaded some 600 MB .iso files (about 10 minutes each) so I know my internet is working properly. That leaves either PackageKit got hosed in my last update, or servers are down.
View 2 Replies View RelatedGood day, installed ubuntu 10.04 64bit yesterday on my laptop just to test everything before the release at the end of the month. However I took a look at my System Monitor and my second CPU(2) is constantly running at 100%, however theirs no apparent processes to cause this.

Along with that I noticed "evolution-data" and "evolution-exchange" would show up as processes. (and then disappear) I don't use evolution, I use Thunderbird instead. Why is this process running? I checked the startup applications and I don't see anything Evolution related.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI need to create a small list of processes in a monitor.conf file. A shell script needs to check the status of these processes and restart if they are down. This shell script needs to be run every couple of minutes.
The output of the shell script needs to be recorded in a log file.
So far I have created a blank monitor.conf file. I have gotten the shell script to automatically updated every couple of minutes The Shell script also sends some default test information to the log file.
how I go about doing this part ? A shell script needs to check the status of these processes and restart if they are down.
I have put in the conf file the below commands but I am not sure if this is right.
ps ax | grep httpd
ps ax | grep apache
I also dont know if the shell script should read from the conf file or if the conf file should send information to the shell script file.
I have a question. I want to monitor
- CPU usage daily
- RAM usage daily
- Harddisk Space
- top processes
- hardware failure
What commands do I need to run to output the result to a log file? I know there are solutions both paid and free, but my company does not allow. they want linux built in commands or methods to do it. I do not know bash scripting. I know some commands like "df -h" to monitor harddisk space but not sure on the other stuffs.
I need something to monitor and record the activity of the top 5 processes in terms of CPU usage and load average during a specific timespan. I'm having some spikes in the morning and just realized it's not always at the same time so it's hard to get up and watch the processes with top. I need something that records CPU usage and load average of the processes from 4AM to 9AM (for instance) so I can debug the process that it's consuming my CPU and spitting +80 e-mails with monit each day.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to do the following: Create a banner for any user logging in through ssh which warns him/her about the number of processors being used already by other users (or conversely the number of free processors). For example, if a user logged in he would then see a message like: Warning! 7 out of 8 processors are in use.I already figured out how to do a banner and with ps -e -o pcpu I can get all processes' %CPU usage. I think I would like to count the number of processes which have more than 90% CPU usage and output this number ("7" in the example) in the banner

First time Ubuntu user (used to be on debian earlier).
I like that everything works out of the box (had to install codecs etc, but thats standard); but I dont like that there are 260 processes running. Is there a utility to stop unnecessary processes from running in Ubuntu 10.10? I used rcconf but there did not seem to be a whole lot of startup processes that were enabled. Yet somehow I am running 260 processes now.
Even if I log into fluxbox, I get 200+ processes running.
I list all the instances of a running process my doing:ps -ef | grep myprogramThis lists all them.how can I simply output a count of how many are running?

It has all been working fine until recently when Apache is becoming unresponsive. I manually ran ps to check and there were 3 processes. However when I ran apache2ctl graceful I got the message 'httpd not running, trying to start' Is there a better way to check if a daemon is up?
my computer is often very slow, to the point of stalling. I tty'd in and when I ran ps -ef I noticed about 10 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start I dont even want 1 apache running. Any suggestions why these are running, or how to stop it? Well, I can stop it with a sudo killall, but how can I make sure it doesnt happen again?
