New question #78587 on linux in ubuntu: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+question/78587
Hi all, At this point I just need to know how to debug this, to gather some info for a proper bug, or to track this thing down. The problem: >From time to time, I can see the hard-disk light going on, and the system does >a mini-freeze, but conky doesn't reveal that the disk is under heavy usage. It >may be a few hundred kilobyte read/write, but I have done megs, and I still >had better response. It doesn't seem to be related to just one app, I get this >from time to time. I am open to any suggestions on how I can properly track this down. Some background info: Ubuntu 9.04, on x86_64, 2.6.28-14 generic kernel, ext4 as the file system. I have done fsck, and there were no errors last time I checked. Update --- rtorrent just crashed with this error, after getting a spike , not sure how much it will help: Caught Bus error, dumping stack: 0 rtorrent [0x4337fb] 1 rtorrent [0x43805a] 2 /lib/libc.so.6 [0x7f0e4370e040] 3 /lib/libc.so.6(memcpy+0xa3) [0x7f0e4375f063] 4 /usr/lib/libtorrent.so.9 [0x7f0e45204e25] 5 /usr/lib/libtorrent.so.9 [0x7f0e4523e6bf] 6 /usr/lib/libtorrent.so.9 [0x7f0e4523e740] 7 /usr/lib/libtorrent.so.9 [0x7f0e452432be] 8 /usr/lib/libtorrent.so.9 [0x7f0e45244dd0] 9 /usr/lib/libtorrent.so.9(_ZN7torrent9PollEPoll7performEv+0x68) [0x7f0e451e82a8] 10 rtorrent [0x473110] 11 rtorrent [0x4340af] 12 /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xe6) [0x7f0e436f95a6] 13 rtorrent(_ZNSt8ios_base4InitD1Ev+0x71) [0x40df79] A bus error probably means you ran out of diskspace. Aborted However I have 87 GB free....
