Slagathor Posted March 27, 2003 Report Share Posted March 27, 2003 But a strange problem has popped up....... Last week and a half, if my Linux machine is not used regularly it wont connect to the network, and programs load VERY slowly..... I run Folding@Home on there, and run Apache web server for a small site, my Fold clients I run nice -1, I have done this since I been running Folding. The install is not very old, and the kids do like some of the games, but they have been playing on there since I started using Linux on this machine and, Like I said before, this problem has just started....... Any ideas what might be happening????? System Specs: Abit BP6 366@561mhz Linksys 10/100 NIC Voodoo 3 2000 PCI WD 8.4gig HDD (linux install HDD) Seagate 3.2gig HDD (win98 install) 350 watt PSU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aru Posted March 27, 2003 Report Share Posted March 27, 2003 The first thing you can do is run 'top' to see if there is some resources eater running in your machine. Also a 'free' report to see how is your memory working might help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slagathor Posted March 27, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2003 Ok did that, the only thing I see hogging the CPU's is Folding, which is nothing new....... Plenty of ram left free..... I had to reset the router recently, and then I changed the DHCP client lease time to it's max setting, I just changed it back to 0, 0=1 day. Now I will see if this is the problem........ Thanks for your help...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
