web content process and sloooww firefox
by Michael Hennebry 26 Jun '17

26 Jun '17

Today, for the first time, I noticed a process named "Web Content". I was running top because firefox was once again not allowing me to scroll. Having been down this road before, I would normally have just closed and reopened firefox. I needed to do it fairly often. Web Content was new. Eventually, I discovered "electrolysis" (why that name?) and the schedule: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Electrolysis#Schedule_and_Status , but I'm not sure how to read it. What the heck is "riding trains"? My firefox is 52.2.0 64-bit. yum.log says it was last updated on the 16th. As is unusual, I had a pretty good idea which tabs were using up the CPU, so getting scrolling back was not too hard, but my usual close and reopen did not work. Is this a new "feature" of firefox? Will close and reopen consistently fail to resolve CPU-burning issues? Will I have to go on a tab-hunt every time? -- Michael hennebry(a)web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "Sorry but your password must contain an uppercase letter, a number, a haiku, a gang sign, a heiroglyph, and the blood of a virgin." -- someeecards

CentOS 6 and crypttab
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 22 Jun '17

22 Jun '17

Folks, I have an issue: I've gotten that drive that I posted about the other day encrypted, and things were looking good... until there was a problem with another RAID attached to the box, and I wound up having to reboot. What had been /dev/sdb came up as /dev/sdc. So... is there any way other than using /dev/disk/by-uuid/<uUUID> as the second field in /etc/crypttab to deal with this possibility? mark

RDP for Centos 7
by me＠tdiehl.org 22 Jun '17

22 Jun '17

Hi, Does anyone know of a good program for doing RDP to windows servers on C-7? The "Remote desktop viewer" program that comes with C7 is not reliable for me. I frequently have multiple long running RDP sessions and the keyboard will stop responding. The only way I can find to get it started again is to restart the program and login to the servers again. In addition, I cannot find a way to make copy and paste work. On the plus side, I like the way Remote desktop viewer displays the desktops in tabs. Suggestions? Regards, -- Tom me(a)tdiehl.org Spamtrap address me123(a)tdiehl.org

why would ls, while or ci use NIS?
by Dave Burns 21 Jun '17

21 Jun '17

I have an entry in root's crontab: #ls -1 /etc/RCS|sed "s~$.*$,v~\1~"|while read file; do ls -la /etc/$file|ci -q -l /etc/$file ;done Error output I received: do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound This looks like NIS (DNS?) error output, but what could be invoking anything that uses NIS or DNS in that command? ls, ci, and while don't need it unless they are applied to some NFS mounted file, but this is executed as root with a *local* home directory on *local* files, no need for YP. The only hypotheses I can think of are "my copies of bash or ci have been compromised" or "I am stupid". Enlighten me, please. Dave
