https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=119900 sbrabec@novell.com changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |jack@novell.com ------- Comment #31 from sbrabec@novell.com 2007-04-03 10:07 MST ------- In openSUSE 10.2 I see slightly different problems: noatime and nodiratime: Flags were moved to the d-bus default options enabled for all filesystems. Looking at g-v-m sources, it seems that it tries to set them, only if they are configured for defined filesystem. But it seems that g-v-m ignores globally enabled flags. Using noatime and nodiratime is a must for all devices with slow seek, slow speed and limited rewrite count. For example, DVD-RAM reading is nearly about 10 times faster when reading unpacked kernel sources with them! The main problem is the fact, that it tries to commit atime and diratime in half of reading of file. It causes obsolete seeks and it make things slower. Making things slower cause, that commit interval for this file will again expire during reading of one of next files and so on. About winnt flag: I don't understand technical background, but I definitely want to see pictures from my camera (using only 8+3 names) downloaded in lowercase. Well, ideally I would see my camera flash mounted as msdos, not vfat. My camera writes names uppercase. I am not sure, whether it is possible to fulfil both requirements, or specifically, wheter it is possible to discriminate between vfat-enabled and 8+3 volumes. And finally, the fmask/dmask stuff from upper mentioned patch should be configurable. Just now, it is OK to sed fmask -x for all files. But if we will use binfmt_misc for running Windows executables, we may want .exe, .com and bat with +x. Setting +x for all files can have ugly consequences. But it would not be possible without kernel changes. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
