Hi,
I am using Suse 6.2 Linux on a Intel PIII m/c. Can I change the kernel parameters like process priority, max. no. of processes, memory that can be addressed thro' Yast or by editing any configuration files. I need this since my m/c is hanging intermittently.
If it's *truely* intermittent, I'd recommend that you have your RAM checked first. If it is duplicatable, as in `I'm always using XMMS and Netscape at the same time', you need to look at the applications that are running. As far as snooping around in the kernel, this is not recommended for anything doing more than one task. I mean doing this on a web server that also feeds FTP traffic is a bad idea (tm). Doing what you want to do on a workstation or PC-class machine is exponentially so. If you start changing settings like that, you risk making your machine even more prone to lockups and failure. -- -=|JP|=- Jon Pennington | Atipa Linux Solutions -o) jpennington@atipa.com | Kansas City, MO /\\ 816-241-2641 x121 | http://www.atipa.com _\_V -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
