FC2 - Hard crash when working -> read-only fs
by Philippe 30 Jun '04

30 Jun '04

FC2 - 2.6.6-1.435 - Gnome - Inter P4 2Ghz Hi, I just recovered from a hard crash as I was doing nothing special on my computer. I managed to come back but believe me, I am still sweating ! I just need information to try to find what happened. What I was doing : editing a file, some web surfing, evolution , downloading a file with Synaptic ... nothing special. What happened : * Editor : Cannot save my file : Read-only fs ! * Evolution cannot save also : read-only. * Synaptic crash during downloading the new synaptic rpm : Read-only fs ! What I did : Try to open a terminal to check mount/df/log messages -> no terminal open. Logout (full of nasty messages ..."Cannot save ... blablabla" Shutdown : Full of FAILED/FAILED/FAILED Reboot : Kernel panic. Re-reboot : fsck error ! Have to run it manually. I can log as root under #repair system . I can access my datas and copy them safely in another place (other disk). No problem for this. df showed me /, /boot and /dev/shm all with the same size include available size, used size, etc ! I run e2fsck manually -> Some orphans and some inconsistent datas. e2fsck OK Re-re-reboot : I am back now after this time a good fsck at boot. I checked all my logs ! NOTHING ! I think this is normal if all the fs were read-only. If anybody had this before, or any explanations to know what happened and make me feel better, thanks a lot... anyway, I already feel better looking at my intact $HOME ... I am ready to investigate but I dont know where ;-) Philippe -- Philippe, Chiangmai, Thailand(e)

How to determine scp Transfer Speed
by Ow Mun Heng 30 Jun '04

30 Jun '04

Guys, V simple question which someone google can't find. I can find using google about ppl talking about comparing transfer speed using scp and ftp and wget (over http) etc.. but for the life of me I do not have any idea how to toggle scp such that it will display what the current transfer speed it. All I get is File-transfer %sent |### 1111bytes ETA --

FC2 + umount of /initrd failed
by Ow Mun Heng 30 Jun '04

30 Jun '04

Do you guys get this? / is formatted as reiserfs. (I'm starting to wonder if the fs I selected is the cause of all these _slow_ness_) each time it boots, it would complain that it can't unmount /initrd and it really is not unmounted. I can still do a ls -l /initrd and it's there. I can umount it manually after. <code> this is 2.6.7 (vanilla patched with cpu schedular + preempt) $ cat /initrd/linuxrc #!/bin/nash mount -t proc /proc /proc setquiet echo Mounted /proc filesystem echo Mounting sysfs mount -t sysfs none /sys echo Creating block devices mkdevices /dev echo Creating root device mkrootdev /dev/root umount /sys echo 0x0100 > /proc/sys/kernel/real-root-dev echo Mounting root filesystem mount -o defaults --ro -t reiserfs /dev/root /sysroot pivot_root /sysroot /sysroot/initrd umount /initrd/proc </code> Any idea why it tries to umount the /initrd/proc directory instead of the /initrd dir? <code> $cat /tmp/initrd-2.6.6-1.435 mount -o defaults --ro -t reiserfs /dev/root /sysroot pivot_root /sysroot /sysroot/initrd umount /initrd/proc </code> It says the same thing on the FC2(dafault) 2.6.6 kernel --

RE: VERY slow NFS FC2 -> RH9

Hi, Are you sure they are all running at 100/FULL? Try set both interfaces to 100/FULL instead of AUTO.

VERY slow NFS FC2 -> RH9
by Gregory Gulik 30 Jun '04

30 Jun '04

I recently noticed that NFS between my FC2 client and a RH9 server is horribly slow. For example, copying an 11MB file from the FC2 client to my RH9 server took 1 minute 15 seconds!!!! The NFS mount is mounted with the automounter with options "hard,intr,sync". The file system was already mounted before I timed the copy so the automounter isn't the one getting in the way. The load averages were low. The server is 0.50 and the client is 0.46. The client is an Athlon 2500+ and the server is a Xeon 2.4Ghz with HT on. The network is all 100Mbit switched with minimal other traffic on the network. Any ideas before I waste the next couple hours with tcpdump??? -- Greg Gulik http://www.gulik.org/greg/ greg @ gulik.org

Serial ATA and UDMA
by Jonathan Rawle 30 Jun '04

30 Jun '04

I happened to be looking in dmesg and noticed the following: SCSI subsystem initialized libata version 1.02 loaded. ata_piix version 1.02 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:1f.2 to 64 ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xC000 ctl 0xC402 bmdma 0xD000 irq 177 ata2: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xC800 ctl 0xCC02 bmdma 0xD008 irq 177 ata1: dev 0 cfg 49:2f00 82:346b 83:7f01 84:4003 85:3c68 86:3e01 87:4003 88:20ff ata1: dev 0 ATA, max UDMA7, 234493056 sectors: lba48 ata1: dev 0 configured for UDMA/133 Does this mean that my SATA hard drive is operating at UDMA/133 rather than 150? Some sources say that UDMA7=UDMA/133, but some mention UDMA/150. Is there such thing as UDMA/150, or is UDMA7 one step up from UDMA/133? Could this an issue of my SATA interface not being completely supported? It's the onboard controller on an 865PE motherboard. Jonathan

FC2 vs nVidia Latest Driver
by Greg Swallow 30 Jun '04

30 Jun '04

Ok, got the kernel installed, driver loaded and x running, but... No logo at startx. Instead get garbage. Cursor/pointer is like one square inch of garbage. Looked into Advanced Options for xorg.conf and found some that get rid of the garbage: HWCursor off, SWCursor on, and CursorShadow options. No garbage, but only have a cursor when the pointer is sitting on the very outside edge of a window. Any ideas on how to get a pointer back? Thanks for your support, GregS <><
