[Mageia-dev] I think VirtualBox locks up my system
Hi. I think virtualBox is causing my mga2 desktop system to Freeze after running a Cauldron guest for a couple of weeks, resulting in me having to do a hard reset. (SysRq magic doesn't work). I used to get these lockups when my mga2 laptop ran my VirtualBox Cauldron guest., it would also freeze after a couple of weeks. Both computers are i7 systems. the laptop have 6G ram and the desktop system have 16G ram. Does anyone else have these problems? -- Johnny A.

Re: [Mageia-dev] [changelog] [RPM] cauldron core/release perl-Linux-Pid-0.40.0-2.mga3
On 13 January 2013 10:07, umeabot buildsystem-dae...@mageia.org wrote: Description : Why should one use a module to get the PID and the PPID of a process where there are the '$$' variable and the 'getppid()' builtin ? (Not mentioning the equivalent 'POSIX::getpid()' and 'POSIX::getppid()' functions.) In fact, this is useful on Linux, with multithreaded programs. Linux' C library, using the linux thread model, returns different values of the PID and the PPID from different threads. (Other thread models such as NPTL don't have the same behaviour). This module forces perl to call the underlying C functions 'getpid()' and 'getppid()'. given that: 1) this module is not maintained (last release in 2006) 2) NPTL is the default since switching to kernel-2.6/glibc-2.4, aka since mdv2007.1, Shouldn't we investigate if apache-mod_perl really needs this? Note that RH's mod_perl now requires it too since last year.
