What is going > on? How can I find out what is causing my system to be so busy? Umm.. your system doesn't seem busy to me. IIRC, those load averages represent the average number of processes waiting to be served for 1, 5 and 15 minutes. Thus load averages of 3.5, 2.3 and 0.97 would indicate heavy increase in load during the last 15 minutes, and that at the moment 3.5 processes in average wait for the kernel scheduler to give them some processing time. As such, load averages below 1 mean system doesn't have any processes (except perhaps the one being run) waiting to be served. -- # Edvard Majakari Software Engineer # PGP PUBLIC KEY available Soli Deo Gloria! $_ = '456476617264204d616a616b6172692c20612043687269737469616e20'; print join('',map{chr hex}(split/(\w{2})/)),uc substr(crypt(60281449,'es'),2,4),"\n"; -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Oh, sorry - I forgot to share the most important details - size of mounted reiserfs partitions can be readjusted on the fly (using resize_reiserfs -f) whereas using ext2 unmounting is a must (I think). Of course, the OP might want to stick with ext3 due to several reasons. Besides, I don't know how bug-free converts is, but I've used it twice to convert a live filesystem from ext3 to reiserfs, and didn't have problems.

Random freezes & font size changes
Hi, I've been wondering what is wrong with my Debian box. Symptom 1: Few times a week the system freezes when using X, and the system doesn't respond to anything. However, when I log on to the system remotely via ssh from another machine, the freeze stops and the system works again. It seems like using XMMS to play mp3 files causes freezing to occur more likely (same login-fix works). Symptom 2: The font size changes randomly. Sometimes when I login to the system (using either Gnome or KDE) the font size changes. It doesn't matter whether I use KDE or Gnome - sometimes the login screen in kdm is using very small, tiny fonts, and when I log on, all the fonts are so small I barely can read them. When I decrease the font size it looks ok, but next time when I log in, the font size can be ridiculously large (due to change of font size). When I adjust (make smaller) font size again, it can be ok for a while, but at some point the fonts are again very tiny. I really wonder what is causing all this.. I'm using xfs-xtt as true type font server, and it is listed as the first entry in XF86Config. Debian release I use is up-to-date testing, and both the symptoms have troubled me for roughly half a year or so. Oh yeah, the display driver is that produced by NVidia, and updating it hasn't affected the problem either. :( -- # Edvard Majakari Software Engineer # PGP PUBLIC KEY available Soli Deo Gloria! $_ = '456476617264204d616a616b6172692c20612043687269737469616e20'; print join('',map{chr hex}(split/(\w{2})/)),uc substr(crypt(60281449,'es'),2,4),"\n"; -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

However, dselect always recommends me to install smail, or any other MTA which is understandable, and even as it is easy to press 'Q' always when it recommends smail, it is quite frustrating. I think it is not possible to create a file containing so called 'virtual provides', which would contain strings like 'mta, httpd, news-server' etc. This way, I can install Qmail on my own, put the appropriate string somewhere and debian would realize service (mta) is already provided. I know, it is always possible to create a .deb package, but I find this approach far too tedious. This feature would be really nice. At our system there's often need (or desire) to compile a package from .tgz, and there should be some way to tell the system what service(s) it provides.. -- # Ed GSM: 040 5960810 URL: http://lodge.ton.tut.fi/%7Eed/ echo "Your stdio isn't very std." --Larry Wall in Configure from the perl distribution -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
