Hi folks,
I have been having a problem on my system:
FreeBSD tigerfish2.my.domain 6.2-STABLE FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE #5: Mon Jan 15 11:31:29 CST 2007 root@tigerfish2.my.domain:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/TIGERFISH2 amd64
where I need to kill java (jbidwatcher) and Xorg about every
5 days to keep Xorg from consuming around 80% of 1 cpu. If I
go to a virtual terminal, and kill java:
70143 ?? S 226:45.23 /usr/local/jdk1.5.0/bin/java -jar /usr/local/share/java/classes
which is running jbidwatcher, and then xdm:
70104 ?? Ss 25:46.37 /usr/X11R6/bin/X -auth /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/authdir/authfiles
then things are fine - getty notices that xdm is gone, and it
gets restarted, I log in and everything is good.
If I do not kill those from a virtual terminal, then I
have to power cycle the machine, because X does not respond. I
have no keyboard or mouse (that I can tell), CTL+ALT+Fx does
not do anything, etc.
Any suggestions? There is nothing suspicious in the Xorg
log file, and the primary manifistation that anything is wrong
is that moving from virtual desktops (I use a 2x2 under fvwm2)
is slow to redraw the desktop. "top" reports that I have aroud
1GB available memory, so that is not the problem, but it sure
seems like Xorg is thrashing.
And why it seems to depend on jbidwatcher is also a mystery.
