That still doesn't explain why it takes 90 minutes. It sounds like your hardware is slow, not the fsck. I've sat through 700GB fscks, and they took roughly 2 hours. 80GB shouldn't take 90 minutes. Even 240GB shouldn't take 90 minutes. And i won't even go into a lecture on why its a horrid idea to have many large files on a ext2 fs. I just hope you are aware that if your MP3 collection was on an xfs filesystem you'd never have to sit through a fsck again, your fs performance would be much better, and you wouldn't be at constant risk of losing everything during an ill-timed power outage. > > > Can someone tell me where the log file goes for XFree86 in Redhat 7.1? > > > > unless RH built it differently (and they probably did), > > /var/log/XFree86.0.log > > I could find no such log. locate XFree turns up nothing, either. Well, i've got both from my installs of XFree86-4.x. You sure that you're running 4.x and not 3.3.x? -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lonni J Friedman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux Step-by-step & TyGeMo http://netllama.ipfox.com _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
