How to track source of sleep signal?
HI, My system has debian stable/testing. Off-late, when I start up certain applications like OO.o etc I find that they take a long time to launch. htop shows that sleep signals are running and constantly changing PIDs.

cpu frequency detetion leads to timer problem
Hi all, I'm running a debian64, 2.6.11-9 kernel, debian built, system with an athlon 64 3000+, on a nvidia chipset. Recently, and although I cannot figure out what I changed in the configuration, the system won't detect the right processor frequency and so the timer is quite weird now. For instance cursor blinks faster, double-clicks become hard to perform... Actually I still can do frquency scaling, but the /proc/cpuinfo always gives a 200 MHz down frequency compared to what it should be and I guess the bogomips calculation is false now leading to an absurd delay loop calibration. The /sys/system/cpu etc gives the corect frequency. I tried to desactivate acpid and all its modules, powernow-k8 ass well. I also tried to give acpi=off parameter to the kernel at boot. It didn't change a thing. I really don't have any idea anymorre to make it work, so if you have any, please.. vincent

This is the assumption gcc make actually (int == 32bit) and probably all sane compiler. maybe not for 16 bit architecture but they are probably not supported by Zope. you cannot assume either that long should be big enough to support a gid_t (even if this likely to be the case for multiple decade and maybe forever...) Then what about using long long to be sure ? or long long long ? see my point ? Zope code made it wrong using "sl:initgroups" where it should be "si:initgroups" (and with that, this is true for all arch, no need for conditional compilation), as countless developers/programs that assume sizeof(long) == sizeof(int) And obviously it breaks on 64 bits arch...

This is wrong. gid_t is 32 bits on all architectures.
You should use "si:initgroups" everytime and certainly not change the
gid type to a long.

experiences with Dell PowerEdge1850 or PE2850
Hi list, I am looking for anyone who has had experience with this hardware, successful or otherwise. These machines come with Xeon cpus that have the EM64T extensions turned on. Red Hat lists them as fully supported by RHEL3, so I assume that kernel support exists for the various devices inside. However I'd really like to hear from Debian users who have had success with this h/w. (http://hardware.redhat.com/hcl/?pagename=details&hid=5673) My questions are these: * can these run ia32 binaries without modification (a la AMD opteron)? * I understand there is some support for them appearing through the amd64-xeon subarch; am I right in assuming this for a "pure64" execution environment? I did look in the list archives, but I couldn't see these particular machines discussed. Any information gratefully received Vince
