cvs update (or is it svn now?) and then a make clean, configure, make,
make install. Pretty easy.
My thought of a memory or controller issue is a device failure. Like
Curt, I've seen this happen and the failure modes are more numerous than
I thought they'd be.

I'm not even running the Firenet scripts (if you have them please send
them my way). I've only dipped into swap once and that was for 52kB and
that was during a brute force attack on a password. With Xastir only
taking 0.5% of my physical memory (about 20MB of RAM) I can't see it
being a memory problem. It might be a video problem but I can surf over
to another workspace and I don't have any problems. Actually the
problem seems to happen when I'm looking at it and when I'm on a
different workspace.
I just trimmed back to a 14580 port vice 2023 just encase.
I just noticed something. I'm using 1.8.4 when others are using 1.9.1.
I'm forgetting what I need to do to update my install. Isn't it
something easy?

Eric,
If I start dipping into swap I tend to get more RAM. You're already
well outfitted with 4GB physical memory. You'd said that you're running
the firenet scripts and Xastir. That shouldn't be an exhaustive load.
However, if you dip into swap, you're memory-bound, almost certainly.
I wouldn't discount Curt's suggestion of a hardware (memory or memory
controller) issue.

Hi Chip,
My setup is as follows:
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Windsor 3.0GHz
HHD: 500GB
RAM: 4GB
Motherboard: ASUS M2N32-SLI
I'm running Fedora 7 with the 2.6.22.1-27.fc7 kernel.
I'm currently not connected to a TNC (gotta get a longer serial cable)
so all my data is coming off the IS.
I'm setup to have 8GB of swap and I've only gotten that far when running
John the Ripper. Otherwise I've never seen utilization over 2.5GB. Per
Curt's request I will check for mem spillage as that could be a problem.
73s,

Yes. Can you tell us more about your setup? What OS are you using (and
version)? What version of Xastir are you using? What interfaces do you
have configured? Are you using a serial (TNC) connection? If so, how is
the TNC connected to the computer?

I've noticed some odd behavior from Xastir over the past couple of
days. I left it up and running last night and when I went to bed my
network lights were happily blinking like crazy as I was attached to
the FireNet IS. When I got up this morning Xastir was sitting there
with no map and no stations showing on the screen. There was also no
activity on the network. It just seemed dead. I had to argue a little
with it to make it close down. Has anyone else seen this kind of
behavior?
