Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] memory leak

Hi,

I ran last night with just pidgin (and the terminal window open, but
inactive)

top - 00:23:48 up 2 min,  1 user,  load average: 0.36, 0.17, 0.06

So, it's not looking like either browser is to blame. (I know there was a
memory leak in Chromium, but that was fixed some time back according to the
bug report).

Next I'll try just leaving a terminal window open, see you all in 6 hours
!!!

Regards,

Phill.

 I'm running Chromium and pidgin only, on a 'clean' Beta2 install (I have
 LAMP on my other one and wanted to remove that from the possible cause).

 I'm rather stuck :-(

 the leak was here before that.

 2) Chromium daily ppa - There WAS a memory leak but it was fixed ages ago -
 that's why I changed to daily ppa a few weeks back.

 3) All the stuff that pcman had me install to be able to compile pcmanfm
 from source with debug on

 I use pidjin for my Im/IRC stuff, bog-standard no additional stuff on that
 one as they can cause problems. I found xChat to be very memory hungry, and
 need IM as well as IRC

 If you know of no-one seeing it, I'll put the beta2 onto a 'clean'
 partition
  see how it runs, the leak has always been very evident within a few
 hours.

  No sign of a memory leak here at the moment on beta 2..

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] memory leak

2010-04-16 Thread Andrew Woodhead
Firefox is notoriously bad with ram. It's one reason I dropped it long ago
when chromium came out, prior to that i mainly used arora.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] FW: memory leak

2010-04-16 Thread Phillip Whiteside
Hi Steve,

Yeah, the screen saver that comes with Lubuntu happily does its job ..
H... good point, I guess I could disable it and drop my screen
brightness to see how it gets on.

Regards,

Phill.

 So, I'm gradually reducing possibilities. I'll try over night with just
 launching LXTerminal to get a 'top', close it and try again in the
 morning.
 I will disable the WiFi connection over night.

 Something is running to produce load averages like this, screen-saver?

[Lubuntu-desktop] translations

2010-04-16 Thread Phillip Whiteside
Hi Steve,

as Mr As the en_GB translation team I have no problem with an exception.

I'd like to ask / point out a little 'funny' with the language packs.

Long story, cut short, was trying to help with language packs last night and
as the only other language I know more than 2 words of is French (I know
about 10 words ;-) ) I put the French language pack onto my system and
popped it into 1st place, it dutifully went into French (So far, so good). I
then moved English(GB) back to the top of the list, so that French was in
2nd place and applied it, but my log in screen remained in French. It was
only when I moved the French pack out of the active areas did I get it back
into English. My guess is that there is not an en-GB for the front screen
and it is defaulting to the 'catch all' English, if there is a 2nd language
pack there then it is correctly using that as the next in order of
preference.

Regards,

Phill.
