System freeze on high traffic
OS: Mandriva Linux 2008.1
Kernel: 2.6.24.7-desktop-1mnb #1 SMP
Driver: provided with the system
Firmware: latest available from late 2006
Other system information:
[root@localhost eddiep]# lsmod | grep rt61
rt61pci 22944 0
rt2x00pci 8096 1 rt61pci

Now, the PROBLEM:
- whenever download speed goes up and stays about 1.5-2.0 MBytes/sec, after
1-3 minutes the hole system freezes.
- the problem is probably NOT only Mandriva Linux related, it happens on Ubuntu,
too, just search with google for "bit torrent system freeze" ... those
people have wifi cards, some of tham have other models and ndiswrapper is
the problem and others have this RT61 based cards.
- the system freeze is not related with the number of connections, ONLY the
speed of the incoming information.
Whatever information, workaround or patch you can provide to solve this
would be for great help.
Whatever additional information I can provide to you, just ask.
====================
SOLUTION:
Download the latest rt61 enhanced legacy driver from rt2x00.serialmonkey.com
Untar the archive
cd to the untarred folder / Module
type: make all
as root do the following:
cp rt61.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/.
test if it loads, still as root:
modprobe rt61
ldmod | grep rt
- it should show you a list where you can identify "rt61" (without anything else at the and)
DO NOT REMOVE OLD DRIVER!!!
next, we must remove old rt61pci module at boot time. You can do this in variouse ways, I've chosen this solution:
edit file /etc/rc.d/rc.local
add following lines:
rmmod rt61pci
modprobe rt61
than reboot the system. Your network should be up, no system freeze should happen any more.

GPU is your graphics processor, your video card's processor. The detection method depends on the type of your card. Open up the karramba theme and edit it to fit your needs:
1) if you have a PC and nvidia video card, you may use a nvidia-settings command with some parameters to detect the temperature
2) if you have ATI card in your PC you will have to use another ATI specific utility
3) if you have a laptop, you may NOT have a temperature sensor for video card (which is on-board), usualy laptops don't have it.
Also, you may have extra sensors which are NOT in your karramba theme. I use "RessMon" theme, and I edited the file to add:
1) harddisk temperature
2) motherboard temperature
3) 3rd sensor for processor (CPU), I have core0, core 1 and cpu
-
You will have to run in a console, as root, "sensors-detect" (without quotes), and configure your sensors.
NOTE: your computer may or may not have some or any sensors!!!

@adamw: I tryed the following
1) rmmod pcspkr, when booted from in Live mode from Mandriva 2008.1 ONE Kde, speaker still sing withouth the module loaded...
2) alsamixer -c 0, i've set all sound parameters to maximum, no improvement. The sound level is about 60% compared with the currently installed Mandriva 2008.0, maybe less.
-
For now, I only tryed 2008.1 in Live mode. Thanks for the link, i'll try it, also as LiveCD, if it works, I may risk an install. Sound is mandatory for me both on PC and Laptop, because of some voice conferences, and dont like to "revert" to a previouse version.
-
Same problem here ... I have a HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop. I wanted to try the ONE in live mode, becouse I may be a victim of the Intel HDA ICHx sound bug, but I can't. Booting from Mandriva ONE KDE 2008.1 dies with a very sophisticated kernel error (too long to rewrite it here), the error starts with UDEV problems on boot screen, and on log screen (ALT+F3) there are some "Intel Corporation|82801G (ICH7 Family)...." related errors...
So bad ... I'll try the pc now. I hope it will work, but I think it will not, same Intel chipset on PC too...
Later Edit:
1) ONE boots on the PC ... with same chipset, strange...
2) Sound bug is there, different from my friends, they had absolutly NO sound with this on-board Intel soundcard. I have sound, very low, everything at maximum barely makes a music enjoiable in headphones. With 2008.0 it was much much much louder, usualy a volume over 60%-70% was to loud. And the second BIG problem is that the pc speaker is always ON ... every sound is reproduced in pc speaker ... it's freeky :P
-
Same problem here, intel 910 (i think) ... it seemes that other people with intel cards have the same problem:
http://forum.mandriva.com/viewtopic.php?t=...a52d51b2db3a510
The problem is 99% NOT compiz related becouse glxgears and glinfo gives these error messages:
libGL error: drmMap of framebuffer failed (Invalid argument)
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering
I can't find a solution yet, but hope we'll be rotateing the cube soon :)

Hi,
My frustration is, that I can't get properly working nvidia driver with compiz. Let me explain...
Hardware:
CPU: Intel core 2 duo e4300
RAM: 1G
HDD: 160 G SATA
BRAND: HP dx2300
Onboard video: Intel
PCIE video: Nvidia Gforce FX 8600GT (silent) - 512 MB RAM
Monitor: HP p1130 CRT - 1600x1200@85Hz
Software:
Mandriva 2008.0
Kernel 2.6.22.9-2mdv
compiz-fusion & compiz - latest version
What I expect:
- compiz working fast
- games working fast
- full opengl support
What is the reality:
Case 1 - free (opensource) nvidia drivers:
- compiz - native support - veri slow
- compiz - xgl - unavailable
- tremulouse - 1600x1200 - 20-30fps
- ta:spring - not working
Case 2 - dkms-nvidia-current nvidia drivers:
- compiz - native support - laggy (ex. wobbly windows, at maximize drows 4-5 frames for hole effect)
- compiz - xgl - perfect
- tremulouse - 1600x1200 - full detail - 1 player local game 90FPS (max. possible 90)
- tremulouse - 1600x1200 - full detail - 20 player online game with many objects - 45-60FPS (max. possible 90)
- ta:spring - not working - becouse direct rendering required
- glxinfo says direct rendering: NO
- nvidia-settings application says I'm not running proprietary driver
Case 3 - original nvidia drivers from nvidia.com:
- compiz - native support - laggy (ex. wobbly windows, at maximize drows 4-5 frames for hole effect)
- compiz - xgl - option is selectable, on X start, after log-in , white screen, X frozen
- tremulouse - 1600x1200 - full detail - 1 player local game 90FPS (max. possible 90)
- tremulouse - 1600x1200 - full detail - 20 player online game with many objects - 80-90FPS (max. possible 90)
- ta:spring - working
- glxinfo says direct rendering: YES
- nvidia-setting application works properly
What I want on my system:
- direct rendering: YES
- compiz (nativ or XGL) but working fast and smooth
- games without low fps
PS: System is up-to-date. Latest updates installed.
Thank you, any ideea is welcome.
---------------------------------------------------------------
solution is add this option to compiz at startup time: --loose-binding --replace ccp

Did anyone try to install Spring with --force and --nodep??? It works if it's installed that way?
[Edit]: OK, I tryed, but it still refuses to install. Is there a way to force urpmi to install a program regardless of any version conflict error???

SOLVED IT. THE VACATION APPLICATION FROM MANDRIVA RPM IS BROKEN.
If some of you has the same problem, just download this one:

Thanks.

Also I am open to any suggestion for other autoresponder aplications.
There is no way to use some application through amavis-new to autoreply messages? I looked at google but find nothing.
Thanks.
-
I tested manually /usr/bin/vocation this way:
su user.xxx
/usr/bin/vacation -j user.xxx
From: user.yyy@mail.com
The result was no error, and NO mail was sent to the specified address.
su user.xxx
/usr/bin/vacation -j user.xxx
<<any text without a Form field >>
Result is an error in /var/log/mail/info, stateing there is no Form field. That is OK.
However, I can not find the reason why there is no reply sent.
Can someone explain me what should happen? /usr/bin/vacation sends the (autorespons) mail, or it passes somehow to postfox. Where should I look for logs since nothing wrong appears in /var/log/mail/info or errors or warning, also there is nothing related with mails or vacation in /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog or /var/log/secure.
I'm stuck. I have no ideea how to follow what is happening with /usr/bin/vacation after it receives the mail.
-
I don't want to use autoresponder ... my boss wants. So I don't have much a choise ...
-
I'm trying to set up an autoresponder/vacation system.
SO. Mandriva 2007.0
Mail: Postfix
Filters: Amavis / spamassasin + clamav
I installed the "vacation" application. I made the configurations, .forward files and .vacation.msg files for a user. When the user receives an email, it is delivered with no error to the mailbox and to the /usr/bin/vacation application.
here is what appears in /var/log/mail/info:
Sep 16 13:04:29 bahn postfix/local[585]: E0EF41CF492: to=<user.name@domain.name>, relay=local, delay=0.44, delays=0.12/0.22/0/0.1, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to mailbox)
Sep 16 13:04:29 bahn postfix/local[585]: E0EF41CF492: to=<user.name@domain.name>, relay=local, delay=1, delays=0.12/0.22/0/0.67, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to command: /usr/bin/vacation user.name)
***Note: user.name is replaced with actual user name, and domain.name is replaced with real domain name.
The problem is that the sender gets no reply. There is nothing in the logs indicateing even a try to send mail to the sender.
The command "vacation -I" was ran, and yes, there is a vacation.db file in users home folder.
Any help would be usefull. Thanks.

I had the same problem ... regardless of the window manager. Also I observed, that after updateing to the latest updates the problem somehow disappeard.
Try to update your packeges...
-
If you open Makefile you can see this:
PREFIX=/usr/local
install:
mkdir -p $(PREFIX)/bin
mkdir -p $(PREFIX)/lib
cp rar unrar $(PREFIX)/bin
cp rarfiles.lst /etc
cp default.sfx $(PREFIX)/lib
Just copy by hend the files specified there (last 3 lines).

I'm curiouse if KDE 3.5.7 will be available as an update in the MCC's package manager's update section, or I will have to install it as new package?

As I can observe it is printer related. I have a HP K550 OfficeJet Pro. The error sometimes happens sometimes not. It looks like after stopping the printer things go wrong.
I mention that printing works perfect.
Any ideea how to resolv this problem?

Can't get Wacom Graphire CTE-630BT to work
in Laptops and Portable Devices
Posted
I can't get this tablet to properly work. Here are the details:
Tablet: Wacom Graphire CTE-630BT (Wireless over BlueTooth)
Mandriva: 2010.1 Free 64 bits, all repositories configured
Problem:
- I can only left and right click with the pan (stylus)
- I can not move the cursor
- No pressure is sensed
What happens:
- bluetooth adapter is recognized and working (generic BT adapter)
- gnome-bluetooth finds the divece
- HAL finds the device
- x11-driver-input-wacom is installed
- I can read/write parameters with xsetwacom from console
- if I change something in 10-wacom.fdi and restart the device, lshal reflects the changes
Relevant part from lshal:

Note: I can not get any information on the console when I use
xxd mouse2
or
xxd event5
(xxd works ok with my real mouse device and keyboard device).
I would appreciate any help you can offer. I red tens of articles on all kind of forums and of course the official page ... I had no luck.
PS: modifying xorg.conf as described in different place is also no luck.
