[gentoo-user] Few problems

[gentoo-user] Few problems

[Pavel Kouřil]

I have few problems with my gentoo. =//
1. After X & WM (I use KDE, in fluxbox it was same) my PC have insane 
CPU and RAM usage. Why? =// [2.0GHz AMD, 512MB RAM]
2. How I can setup autostart in KDE? (i wanna run firefox etc. automaticaly)
And last problem, but this is more wine-related.
I have big game freezes in Ragnarok Online (kRO version), and when i 
wanna run updater, it ever falls down.

Thanks and Happy New Year Everbody.

Run 'top' to see which processes are causing this.

You can put scripts and symlinks in ~/.kde/Autostart/ to run whatever you want 
on login.

Have a look at this page on the wine website to see if there are any bug 
reports or solutions relating to your problem:

If it is shell script, with chmod a+x, it only opens in KWrite at the

What is telling you that you have high cpu and ram usage?

I've only seen that happen when the script wasn't executable, double check 
that you have given it +x permissions.

This can happen with some Internet sites, esp with Javascript or Flash.
Try something safe like the Gentoo WWW site: does it happen then ?

This happens when I have only running X + WM.. No other programs.

Conky might be showing all ram usage, without telling you whether it's disk 
cache or applications using it. Take a look at kinfocenter's memory page and 
see what it says for application ram usage. Unused ram is wasted ram and it's 
likely your high ram usage is simply disk cache, which is good.

Kinfocenter shows the same.. 22,71/503,58MB RAM free, which is like a 
95% in conky.

Memory consumption is not load! And it's pretty normal that Linux uses
up all available RAM. Substract the current cache and buffer values and
it's more like the classic idea of "free RAM".

System load is independent from that and is expressed in the CPU usage
numbers e.g. displayed by "top" (I don't use Conky, so I've got no idea
how it looks there). When the "idle" value stays at 0%, your machine
_is_ likely under heavy load :-). This would also be expressed in the
average load display ("top" again), which would indicate with values
>1.00 that in average, there's more than one process waiting for the CPU.

a good command to see what free mem you have is "free" or "free -m"
the second line indicate the reaminging real ram they stay
ex:

vincent@localhost ~ $ free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:          3546       2005       1540          0        436        939

Swap:         8191          0       8191

You need to provide a bit more information here for us to give any meaningful 
answers.

Copy the appropriate desktop file to ~/.kde/Autostart.

No idea here. I don't use WINE.
