SSH - Abnormal CPU Usage
by Thiago Arrais
Ferdorians,
This is my first message to this groups, I don't really know if this
would be the best group for my question. I am experiencing this
problem for some time now, I hope you can help.
The main problem is that my machine is causing CPU excessive usage
when a SSH session is closed. It does not happen when openining,
neither during the session, but when it is closed.
I have tried to collect some evidence, here they are:
- This is what I telled the machine for this test:
$ ps -e -o pcpu,cputime,pid,args > before
$ ssh localhost
thiagob@localhost's password:
id: cannot find name for group ID 74594
$ ps -e -o pcpu,cputime,pid,args > during
$ exit
$ ps -e -o pcpu,cputime,pid,args > after
- Prior to the execution of the SSH client, everything is perfect with
the processes running on the machine. I won't attach the process
monitor report here because it is very long and doesn't add much
information. There is almost no CPU activity prior to executing the
client.
- After opening an SSH terminal, the CPU isn't busy. Here is the
process status I got with the terminal opened:
$ grep ssh during
0.0 00:00:00 1898 /usr/sbin/sshd
0.0 00:00:00 2605 /usr/bin/ssh-agent startkde
0.4 00:00:00 4470 ssh localhost
0.0 00:00:00 4471 sshd: thiagob [priv]
0.0 00:00:00 4479 sshd: thiagob@pts/8 << This is the one that gets hungry
- After executing the `exit` command, the CPU become annoingly busy:
$ grep ssh after
0.0 00:00:00 1898 /usr/sbin/sshd
0.0 00:00:00 2605 /usr/bin/ssh-agent startkde
0.0 00:00:00 4471 sshd: thiagob [priv]
98.0 00:00:05 4479 sshd: thiagob@notty
^^
- These are the versions for the software:
$ ssh -V
OpenSSH_3.6.1p2, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090701f
$ uname -a
Linux serpro-1422052.rce.serpro 2.6.5-1.358 #1 Sat May 8 09:04:50 EDT
2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 2.05b.0(1)-release (i386-redhat-linux-gnu)
Copyright (C) 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Some weird facts:
- The same behavior is observer in two other machines when I open an
SSH session from my machine
- My logout scripts are empty on all machines, they contain at most a
command to clena the term
I hope anyone can help.
Cheers,

I will try improve it in that way also.

Just add one button in the used glade file and give it
a name which the actual command uses to run that
utility.

Fedora-core applications can't be killed fully from terminal !
by Ankit Patel
I have run the "hwbrowser" from the menu. Then i tried
to kill hwbrowser from terminal.
1.kill pid_of_hwbrowser
--> This command kills only binary (hwbrowser) run by
the normal user, not the main application because
there are many (3) processes running along with
hwbrowser. and they are.
[ankit@ankit ~]$ ps -aux | grep hwbrowser
Warning: bad syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'? See
/usr/share/doc/procps-3.2.3/FAQ
ankit 6355 1.0 1.5 18460 8108 pts/2 S
12:38 0:00 hwbrowser
root 6356 0.0 0.2 7472 1396 pts/2 S
12:38 0:00 /usr/sbin/userhelper -w hwbrowser
root 6360 0.0 0.1 6772 952 pts/2 S
12:38 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/share/hwbrowser/hwbrowser
root 6361 8.1 3.3 28276 16976 pts/2 S
12:38 0:01 /usr/bin/python
/usr/share/hwbrowser/DeviceList.py
ankit 6370 0.0 0.1 5816 660 pts/2 R+
12:39 0:00 grep hwbrowser
[ankit@ankit ~]$
2. So, i thought i need to kill all other processes
also along with hwbrowser. So,
[ankit@ankit ~]$ killall -g hwbrowser
[1]+ Terminated hwbrowser
[ankit@ankit ~]$ ps -aux | grep hwbrowser
Warning: bad syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'? See
/usr/share/doc/procps-3.2.3/FAQ
root 6360 0.0 0.1 6772 952 pts/2 S
12:38 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/share/hwbrowser/hwbrowser
root 6361 1.2 3.3 28276 16976 pts/2 S
12:38 0:01 /usr/bin/python
/usr/share/hwbrowser/DeviceList.py
ankit 6373 0.0 0.1 4652 656 pts/2 R+
12:40 0:00 grep hwbrowser
Still gui of hwbrowser running.
If you have run hwbrowser from Menu (gui) then --> All
other gui applications closed and gnome-panel
restarted.
If you have run hwbrowser from same terminal (console)
then --> Other gui applications and gnome-panel will
not get affected.
3. So, finally i thought i need to be root to kill all
the instances of hwbrowser. And,
[root@ankit ~]# ps -aux | grep hwbrowser
Warning: bad syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'? See
/usr/share/doc/procps-3.2.3/FAQ
root 6412 0.0 0.1 4656 668 pts/2 S+
12:47 0:00 grep hwbrowser
[root@ankit ~]#
Now hwbrowser killed fully...
If you have run hwbrowser from Menu (gui) then --> All
other gui applications closed and gnome-panel
restarted.
If you have run hwbrowser from same terminal (console)
then --> Other gui applications and gnome-panel will
not get affected.
This is not specific to hwbrowser only but most of the
applications created in python included in fedora-core
software.
So, i want to know is there any solution to kill
hwbrowser(which have been running from Menu(gui) not
from the same terminal) without affecting other
applications?
Thank You!
Ankit Patel

FC4 GNOME 2.10 a bit slow on Toshiba Satellite A40
by Yordanis Tornes Medina

MK4025GAS 4200 rpm) with Fedora Core 4 (GNOME 2.10)

example, when I boot the first time that I click the
GNOME menu panel it delay a few seconds in open,
