Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hi, Yesterday i tried to start cdda2wav but somehow it didn't do anything. It didn't die to kill -9 too. Machine was slow but usable. vmstat 10 output: procs memory swap io system cpu r b w swpd free buff cache si so bi bo in cs us sy id 2 0 1 2972 40916 108 18292 0 0 0 0 121 12735 0 100 0 2 0 1 2972 40492 108 18292 0 0 0 0 109 12740 1 99 0 2 0 1 2972 40492 108 18292 0 0 0 0 103 12996 0 100 0 3 0 0 2972 40492 108 18292 0 0 0 0 102 12932 0 100 0 3 0 1 2972 40492 108 18292 0 0 0 0 131 12652 1 99 0 2 0 0 2972 40496 108 18292 0 0 0 0 142 12562 1 99 0 2 0 0 2972 40500 108 18292 0 0 0 0 120 12684 0 100 0 2 0 1 2972 40496 108 18292 0 0 0 0 140 12480 1 99 0 2 0 0 2972 39952 108 18292 0 0 0 0 160 11445 7 93 0 3 0 0 2972 39952 108 18292 0 0 0 0 178 12295 2 98 0 2 0 0 2972 39956 108 18292 0 0 0 0 214 11958 2 98 0 3 0 1 2972 39952 108 18292 0 0 0 0 138 12579 1 99 0 cs field is absolutely ridiculous for my machine. ps showed cdda2wav & kswapd eating all of processor time. When i tried to close netscape, it hang too and joined cdda2wav and kswapd: PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT LIB %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND 9990 priitr 17 0 42380 41M 9928 R 0 32.5 33.4 21:47 netscape-commun 3 root 17 0 0 0 0 SW 0 32.3 0.0 11:12 kswapd 10538 priitr 16 0 84 8 0 R 0 32.3 0.0 11:09 cdda2wav 5 root 9 0 0 0 0 SW 0 1.5 0.0 0:19 bdflush 10616 priitr 13 0 856 856 668 R 0 0.7 0.6 0:00 top 657 root 9 0 21160 20M 1668 S 0 0.1 16.7 29:36 X I couldn't leave X and had to kill it. After that, both netscape and cdda2wav were gone and everything looks normal since then. I'm running 2.4.3ac3 right now. dmesg: - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
