The driver could have been clobbered, because I didn't install the nvidia
driver
the "Debian Way". I just ran the nvidia *run file from their website.
But the libglx*9755 file is still there, and the file date seems to match
when I installed the
nvidia driver. Would a simple relink, changing libglx.so to point to the
nvidia file, work here?

(I'm sorry if this message shows up several times;

I've been using Postfix, but would like to find a mail server that
supports running on an offline system. I tried masqmail, but it is old,
has lots of very old bugs, and the software's site doesn't even exist
anymore.
Postfix, exim4, or any other decent mail server in Deiban that
(preferrably) can be configured easily with will suffice. The server
must support Maildir folders, honor the ~/.forward file (perhaps they
all do?), and not attempt to deliver non-local messages when a specified
interface is down.
Thanks for any ideas!

Hi Justin,
sounds to me like a hardware problem. Or did the problem start after a
certain update? What do the log files look like just before the crash?
Maybe you should run a memory check or change the RAM bars.
Did you check the BIOS settings? Maybe there are wrong timing settings
for the RAM.
How old is the server hardware? Is the cooling in good order?

Perhaps. And perhaps not.
You could play with "ulimit -v" - see your shell docs for info about=20
ulimit (it's a built-in). This can put limits on the per-process=20
resource usage.
I had good luck with adding e.g.:
ulimit -v 512000
in my ~/.xsession .
Be careful not to set it too low though or weirdy stuff will happen.
Sometimes processes allocate loads of memory and never use it(!): This=20
doesn't take up swap and is quite harmless. But it is still subject to=20
ulimit size. I had things like my browser Java plug-in failing silently=20
until I increased the ulimit accordingly...
Hope this helps

Hi Till
Thank you very much for taking the time to get back to me on this issue.

This problem began a month back where the server froze. It was reset
and didn't play up again until last week thursday when it did the same
thing and ever since thursday it's been freezing every 16 hours or so.
There were no major updates done on the system during this time.
What does concern me however is that the freeze starts first with
mysql and in particular quite heavy load database on that. Basically
that database crashes while the others are fine and then soon after
that the entire server freezes.
In checking the log files I have to say I see simply nothing.
Everything from a log file perspective looks normal up until and
including the crash. Whats weird is that log files show no signs that
the server has crashed but it has.

The server is only 3 months old and was bought brand new at the time
when it was launched.
I have also setup a script using cron to check memory consumption and
processes and hopefully I can catch something at the time this happens
again. I think memory may also be an issue so it will be interesting
to see what the output of the script is next time this happens.

Thanks for your replies gents.
It seems reliability is not fully guaranteed unless
one runs under 2.6.20+ with fuse 2.6.9+. Etch fulfils
neither requirement. Apt-cache tells me I could install
2.6.21 (probably thanks to etch-backports). Do you
think the kernel upgrade would take care of fuse,
and then I'd only need to compile ntfs-3g from source?

IMHO crashing on heavy load is a typical sign for a hardware issue.
I once had a similar behavior on one of my systems when there wasn't
enough thermal grease on the heat sink.
I only remarked it when i tried to compile the kernel. On normal load
the system was stable.
But that's only a guess.

Did you do any heavy load testings before you put the server into operation?
Do you have some "exotic" hardware which needs immature kernel drivers?
Maybe you should post to the mysql mailing list, too.

My hard drives never drop below 40 C.
I have a four drives in this system:
One is underneath a CD/DVD drive near the top of the case. That one
would get hotter, I would assume, because air doesn't move much up
there, but it is at 42 C now, which (from my own experience) isn't that
hot. This drive isn't used much, that may make a difference.
One is under the floppy drive (hmm, does it even work anymore?); I would
expect it to be a bit cooler; it is at 40 C.
Two are at the bottom of the case right in front of (like a cm from) the
fan. They are very close, with maybe 2 mm between, but they should be
quite cool I would think, with air blowing directly on them. One is 40
C and the other is 78 C! Exact same drives. Neither feels much warmer
than the other, as far as I can tell, and smartctl shows no errors.

What is the basis for your speed measurements on apt-proxy? I've used
for quite a while now. It regularly achieves line speed (T1 for remote

and disk speed limits for packages it has already chached.

No errors in any log, just suddenly finding myself looking at tty1. Haven't
tried totem-gstreamer, because the last time I did that, it crashed almost
immediately on any video. Version 2.16.5-3.
