-zh-TW") Homepage:http://www.mozilla.com/firefox Description: Firefox Web Browser I thought it may be related to profile-sync-daemon (psd) mapping the browser cache to /tmp, but have not found the cause of this problem. I noticed it has been happening when the user is creating new bookmarks, but I am not 100% sure. Unlike Alan's case, here the whole PC may lock up, or in any case the keyboard is lost and I have to ssh in. Typically one core is pegged at 100%. Killing firefox recovers the OS. Sometimes the crash is too far gone by the time I am called and a 3 finger salute is necessary. I'll ask the user to start it from a terminal next time in case something more meaningful shows up. -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

I opened the PSU and replaced the capacitors with higher rating components. This lasted just under a couple of years. After that I used a higher amperage PSU from a laptop. I can't recall the exact difference in amps. The original was 5V 2A and I used something like 5.5A, which lasted for a long time without any problem. BTW, besides the size also check the polarity of the pin to make sure you do not blow the target device. -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Re: [gentoo-user] No room left on /boot

ot create a new partition for boot, just copy the /boot filesystem into / and comment out the boot partition from fstab. You'll need to also edit your /boot/grub/grub.conf 5. Boot with a LiveCD, delete/move old kernel and/or any unnecessary files, check /boot/grub/grub.conf, reboot. Any of the above will work, but some make more sense than others depending on your use case for this particular installation. -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
