Is there any way to find out the space consumed by a particular application??
AFAIK,applications installation are distributed across various directories in Linux(man pages,executable files,etc..)and the very close i can get is to run 'whereis' command which gives me all the paths where the application's files are stored.
Do i have to manually go to each and every such paths and check their sizes??
What would be the best way to determine memory consumed by each application running on the server?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently built a new server, running 64 bit Slackware 13.0 with the following specs:
MSI 785GTM-E45
AMD Phenom II X2 550
2GB DDR2
Onboard video from AMD 785G chipset
2x 80GB IDE system drives using software RAID with 2GB swap partition
I only include these because I'm not convinced my problem is not hardware related at some level. Basically, when I first start up the system, the memory usage is anywhere from 60 to 200MB. Then it starts to gradually climb until there is only 12-15MB free. This can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days.
The only thing I really use this for is to serve Samba shares and the occasional SSH login. I've set up Samba shares to be accessed by my Windows machines as well as a Mac. Initially I just explored the network if I wanted to see the share from these machines, but that was too slow and unreliable (the server would not always show up in Windows), so now I automatically mount the share as a network drive at startup (from Windows). So I don't know if this would have anything to do with the steadily increasing memory usage. These systems are not on/connected all the time, but the memory usage seems to rise anyway.
When I run top, it reports that nearly all of the physical memory has been consumed (after a while of uptime), but none of the swap space has even been touched. This is a typical output of the first several lines, sorted by swap size:
Code:
top - 07:45:48 up 2 days, 12:33, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
Tasks: 105 total, 1 running, 104 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie
Cpu(s): 0.0%us, 0.2%sy, 0.0%ni, 99.8%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.0%si, 0.0%st
[code]....
I can't be sure, but I believe the message just repeated itself before this part. MS-7549 is one of the components of the mainboard (MSI), maybe the northbridge or something (it seems to be associated with more than one model), so I thought for sure this meant a hardware problem, maybe with the storage controller or memory. But Memtest86 passes for more than a day without any errors, and I loaded Windows on one of the disks and ran it as hard as I could with prime95 and nothing so much as flinched. So I've got to think this is some kind of issue with linux and/or how it is handling my hardware configuration.
I had no problems installing the F13 DVD, but when I chose to install it across a 160 GB and 250 GB hard drives, it happily used both of them for the system and left me 40 GB of storage to play with.... at least I think that is what happened. I kind of had the opposite in mind. I know I could have installed it on one and used the other drive for a separate storage location, but for me, it's just easier to have one big storage/system volume and not have to worry about paths and /dev/sdb/images stuff

I just updated to 11.04 today after deciding I couldn't just read about Unity anymore and wanted to experience it for myself. I'll save my thoughts for the Experiences forum; suffice to say that so far I think that it's organized and, for the most part, intuitive.
That said, I am having a problem finding an application that I know is installed. I use Crossover Games to run Steam, and though Steam is running just fine (just played a quick game of TF2 to make sure) I cannot for the life of me find Crossover. In 10.10, it was under Applications > Games. In Unity, it will not show up no matter how I search for it (Steam, however, does with no issues). I have searched for Crossover, codeweaver, cross, code, games, etc, to no avail.
Any tips or comments on how I may find this application? It shows up in my Installed Software in Software Center even!
im running RHEL 4.0 with 2 x 146 GB for the operating system and a storage with just 2 x 300GB for the application. The application is almost 88% usage and this is the output of the fdis and df.

I am a beginner Ubuntu 9.10 user. I downloaded and installed the latest version of the sun VirtualBox. My problem is I cannot find where it is installed and that's why I could not run it. Generally, when I install a program the shortcut appears in the menu "Applications->ClassOfInstalledFile". But Virtual Box did not appear. How to find the icon, or simply how to run this application and have a shortcut of it on the "Applications" menu?

I seem to be seeing some weird behavior in kubuntu with KDE 4.3.2 and KDE 4.3.5 for Kubuntu 9.10 32-bit.I have a few programs in my home folder. For instance Eclipse and Mendeley. it seems that when i create a Link to Application does not launch them. Here is how I create the links.
-> I right click and create a new "Link to Application"
-> I click on the Application tab and browse to where the shell script, or executable is.
and when I try to launch them it does not work. The link is using the absolute path. I tried setting the working directory and using a relative path but nothing. If I run the link in a terminal it says "Warning: Could not find" and the application I set. Now this seems to not be a problem for system applications like Kate. If i change the link to launch Kate it works perfectly.
