Your PC's responsiveness? Checking what job is taking CPU time would be more useful. Use "top" for that. Concerning your memory, a list member has already noticed you have still enough resources free: Cached 195208, Free 76492. That's 271Mb of RAM free to be used. Out of the 512Mb, that's not bad. What unused resources did you want to "release"? For sometime, I've been using Eclipse IDE, MySQL, JBoss, among others (evolution, etc.). As I type something on the IDE, (also tried with shell), I can dramatically notice that every letter writen on the screen incurs a delay of about 500 millis. So I shutdown Eclipse, MySQL, and JBoss, hoping that it would release resources that it ate up. Waited for quite a while, I tried to check my resources. To my puzzle, it just looks the same as it was before those major apps were properly shutdown. Therefore, I suspected that resources weren't released by the OS. Having that at hand, the next thing I need is the way to manually re-claim those resources from the OS. How do I do it? Regards. -- EDUARDO A.

Memory Resources - Howto Refresh
Hi, After days of work, without rebooting my box, it suddenly slowed down. My filesystem is just 41% of the total size that my hard disk can hold. I executed "free" to check on the available memory resources. I found the following information: [EMAIL PROTECTED] xxx]$ free total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 505220 428728 76492 0 16860 195208 -/+ buffers/cache: 216660 288560 Swap: 1052248 194312 857936 Well, I don't really want to reboot my box. Is there a way that I could refresh (or probably release the unused) resources of my box? After all, some of my previously used applications (eclipse, jboss, and mysql) have been shutdown for quite a long while now. -- EDUARDO A.

Re: Installing Mysql on 9.0
Title: Re: Installing Mysql on 9.0 Hi Dali, "mysql dead but subsys locked." Normally this would happen if you've got a previous version of MySQL that was installed along with your RedHat OS. Try to uninstall it and also find the "mysql.pid" and delete it. If you find any mysql.pid, it may mean that a previously running mysqld failed to shutdown properly. HTH. -- EDUARDO A.

You may miss some essential explanations if you don't read them. Nonetheless, I would advise you take the binary distribution to not complicate things further. After all, you would only require source distribution if you need to tweak or modify MySQL DB Server. Using binary distribution: 1. I presume that you've been installing as root; 2. After creating group and user for "mysql" account, unzip the package using the command: shell> tar -xzf mysql-version.tar.gz; 3. Rather than creating link to your /usr/local/mysql, I suggest moving the unzipped folder to /usr/local as mysql itself: shell> mv mysq-version /usr/local/mysql 4. cd to /usr/local/mysql; 5. Run the script to initialize the database: shell> scripts/mysql_install_db 6. Change ownership of mysql folder to root and mysql: shell> chown -R root:mysql /usr/local/mysql 7. change ownership of data to mysql: shell> chown -R mysql:mysql /usr/local/mysql/data 8. copy support-files/my-xxx.cnf to /etc/my.cnf; 9. I would suggest including /usr/local/mysql/bin to your $PATH; 10. Try to run mysql server using: shell> mysqld 11. For security purposes, never forget to change password for the superuser of your mysql. HTH. -- EDUARDO A.

Re-send:
1. Get the manual of your LG monitor
2. Locate the section where it identifies the Horizontal (KHz) and Vertical (Hz) Refresh Rates
of your monitor
3. Run the redhat-config-xfree86 (of course, you must be root)
4. In the Advanced Tab, click on Configure
5. DON'T click Probe Monitor; Enter the appropriate value for the following:
a. Model Name (any, ex. LG Studioworks 900b);
b. Horizontal Sync Range (monitor specific, ex. 30.0-69.0)
c. Vertical Refresh Rate (monitor-specific, ex. 50.0-120.0)
6. Click ok.
You must restart you XWindow Server (NOT YOUR COMPUTER) for the setting to take
effect.
You may want to run redhat-config-xfree68 again, but this time to change your desired
(higher) resolution.
Please note that it is not the responsibility of the monitor alone to display your GUI in
higher resolution. You video card must also be capable of displaying more than 256 colors
(say 16Million colors) to be able to see more fine graphics.
Hope this helps.

hi bEEnHeX, try to check the manual of your monitor Hansol 710p. look for the horizontal and vertical syncs (Hz) and manually configure your monitor (through desktop configurator) by inputting the appropriate values. every monitor has its own properties that must be exactly fed in to the setting with all flavors of linux. if you don't have the manual, try visiting the site of the manufacturer, i'm sure they have it (the specification) on-line. i normally don't depend on the probed monitor. the monitor manual knows exactly what the setting must be. hope this helps. :) On Thu, 2003-08-07 at 14:23, bEEnHeX wrote: > I have a problem with my display. > > After succesfull booting of RH 9.0, the login graphical screen displays > correctly and I can proceed with my account normally. > But whenever I try to logout from an account, the display change the > resolution and shrinks out so I can not see all of the edges of a login > screen.

Help: Linux Email Client for MS Exchange Server
hi! would anyone suggest a workable email client better than ximian evolution? currently, i'm using a linux box (RH9) and ximian as email client. using a Microsoft Exhange Server gives me a lot of headache because my mail would not go out using SMTP server (outgoing). i needed to have few workarounds to make it work but i know its not proper and not appropriate as long term solution. i tried visiting the site of ximian but to my surprise, they've just offered a commercially licensed "Ximian Connector" to be able to optimize connectivity with MS Exchange Server (so, it isn't free). one drawback of using MS Exhange Server with linux box as client is that - i couldn't receive mail attachments, which everyone of us considers as imperative in business correpondences. i would appreciate your high regards on this posting. thank you. -- EDUARDO A.
