Also, one needs to edit /etc/rc.d/init.d/syslog. This is very similar to what one has to do if he wants to use NFSv3 client/server and latest nfsutils on Red Hat systems (they are broken by default) Regards, Tigran - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

I bugged Alan about that a few weeks back and he mumbled something cryptic. It seems he's going to take it out sometime. As far as the klogd problem is concerned, see http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0101.1/1053.html for a probable solution. - - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

2.4.1-pre8/10 klogd taking 100% of CPU time -- bug?
Hi, Has anyone else seen this? The system load is 1.0 and all the cpu time is taken by klogd but I do not have a stream of messages (or maybe I do but they all are lost?). Also, kdb refuses to decode klogd's stack saying "stack is not in task structure". It does show stack trace of other tasks though. So, since kdb was unable to tell me what's going on (and truss also can't attach to it) one will have to debug it the old-fashioned way -- manually, i.e. by trussing klogd from the beginning and reading it's sources... Btw, this only happens on my laptop and not on the desktop. It only happens _after_ some activity but I have not yet managed to narrow down exactly what activity. Regards, Tigran PS. No, I don't use power management or anything fancy/unproven like that -- laptop is just a small/portable desktop, imho. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
