Re: fam uses 100% of CPU problem
Hi Joost, I am experiencing problems with fam, using 100% of CPU (actually 50% as I have 2 processors ;-)). There is already a bug report for this (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=252896) . Can anyone tell me which programs depend on fam or why it is installed? Can I safely uninstall the program? I just uninstalled it. My system still works :-) Greetings, Tobias -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

It checks changes of files. This is good for e.g. Filebrowsers for getting updates of files immedeatly.

Re: fam uses 100% of CPU problem
I had LOTS of problems with fam and libfam. Since i moved to gamin and libgamin0 (they cover the same dependencies), it works like a charm.
