Shallax, how do you cool your XBox, you got a Fan Speed near 10% and a dream temperature

My xbox is sort of "in developement" - just had a HDD breakdown - harddrive will be replaced today..

What do you guys run on your xboxes to get <60% memory usage..???
I'm always over 90%.. (even stopping mysql just drops the swap with about 5%) - maybe that's just the way linux was intended to work? (use all available memory)

I'm running..
- Gentoox pro 2a

- mysql
- apache2 / php5
- open-dp500 (java)

additional processes/rameaters
- smartctl
- hddtemp
- ??

What hardware monitor app did you guys choose in config.php ??

Mine only shows the actual memory usage. Seems your new version shows buffer+cache too and splits them up nicely.

Yes, Linux aims to use all memory available by filling it with cache and buffers. When an application explicitly needs the memory, it will flush some buffers and give up that memory to an application. This is why I changed the default phpsysinfo to show ONLY the memory used by applications so as not to fool you into thinking you are actually using near 100% of your memory.

I read it somewhere after replying to this post. I like the way you show memory, whoever I'll keep both versions for testing purposes :)

The processes I'm always running are:

- mysql 5
- proftpd
- php 4
- apache 2
- ssh
- webmin
- phpsysinfo
- awstats

Also tryed a Neverwinter Nights server, though the low memory didn't alow me to load most persistant worlds. And keeping a normal module made the cpu too hot to run long times.

I noticed your theme default is metal. Is there a way i can make my defaul theme black? So that it auto loads on black when some1 veiws it? It currently is the KDE theme default, unless someone manually changes it...

That's an easy one..

nano -w /var/www/localhost/htdocs/<phpsysinfo dir>/config.php

press ctrl + w

type '$default_template'

you will now see the line with the default template - change the value to

$default_template='black';

There you go..
You can also stop the user from changing the template..
just change

$hide_picklist = false;

to

$hide_picklist = true;
