ianw1974 Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 Yes, that's the one, based on the feature I listed with the --list parameter :D Some other things I do on a normal system is this: urpme kat urpme lisa urpme portmap nfs-utils-clients urpme pcmcia-cs of course, removing kat as everyone suggests. Lisa too, because I don't need it for giving me a network neighbourhood like in Windows. Portmap and nfs-utils-clients, because I'm not using nfs systems and lastly pcmcia-cs because I'm not using any pcmcia items. Of course, leave this if you are. This is my current service listing: [root@europa ian]# chkconfig --list acpi 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off acpid 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off alsa 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off apmd 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off apmiser 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off atd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off cpufreq 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off crond 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off dm 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:on 6:off freshclam 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off haldaemon 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off harddrake 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off keytable 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off kheader 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off laptop-mode 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off mDNSResponder 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off messagebus 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off netfs 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off netplugd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off network 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off nifd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off oki4daemon 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off partmon 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off rawdevices 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off sound 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off syslog 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off ultrabayd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off vmware 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off wine 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off xfs 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off I've also disabled cpufreq and rawdevices because they weren't working on my system anyway. Cpufreq is for frequency scaling, I believe to cut the power to the processor when it's idling and not being used. Rawdevices I'm not entirely sure about, but since it wasn't running, disabling it didn't harm anything on my system. If you're not running a laptop, you won't have laptop-mode, vmware if not using vmware-player and wine if wine isn't installed. Netfs is normally used in conjunction with nfs, so this was disabled. I couldn't remove, because it would want to remove a whole host of other stuff that I required. Good command to use if you want to free up services and remove them is: [root@europa ian]# rpm -qf /etc/init.d/netfs initscripts-7.61.1-50mdk this shows that the netfs service is part of the initscripts. This to me sounds important, which is why I've not removed it. But using this, can show you what service is part of what package, and then remove accordingly.

ianw1974 Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 I've not used it no :P But I'll certainly bear it in mind should I ever be running short of disk space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gul Dukat Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 Has anyone used kleansweep then? Is it safe? :o Yes, I've used it. It's very tempting to remove things with this program, but be carefull not to remove to much. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
