IRC log of #cubox of Mon 10 Jun 2013. All times are in CEST < Back to index

10:55 ralix morning
14:00 Wizzup_ Time to revive Gentoo on Cubox soon :)
14:00 ralix use arch, its better ;)
14:01 Wizzup_ in breaking down and bloating my system
14:05 mhoney_work use debian, its best
14:07 Wizzup_ debian is okay too, in some cases
14:08 Wizzup_ but any distro that uses systemd will be avoided by me
14:16 _rmk_ a very good plan.
14:17 _rmk_ systemd uses dbus for communication, which times out if your system is under heavy load, which means you can't ask systemd to take stuff down or restart it.
14:17 _rmk_ your only options are to delve into the systemd scripts to find out what command actually needs to be run, or to use pkill to recover from the situation, or pull the power plug
15:14 Coolgeek or use windows, that is better
15:14 Coolgee 15:14 * Coolgeek hides
15:19 dv_ _rmk_: this problem still persists?
15:19 dv_ I thought it was fixed
15:48 _rmk_ dv_: F16's systemd suffers that problem... yes, might be over a year old but online upgrades past F16 are apparantly impossible to do
15:48 _rmk_ and doing offline upgrades on a machine located 300+ miles from anyone is...
15:51 dv_ I use arch on my desktop, never had these issues even under very heavy load
15:52 dv_ so I hope it was fixed :)
15:59 _rmk_ heavy load I define as a load average of 130
15:59 _rmk_ with lots of processes sitting in iowait
16:43 Kiranos_ _rmk_: that indeed is heavy load:)
16:45 dv_ those hard disks must be crying
