I tried to use the 3 possible configuration files (see http://people.gnome.org/~veillard/gamin/config.html [^] ) with the following, identical, content: fsset ufs none fsset zfs none fsset nfs none fsset devfs none fsset sharefs none fsset ctfs none fsset objfs none fsset tmpfs none to no avail. The only way to avoid this unuseful CPU consumption is to: mv /opt/csw/libexec/gam_server /opt/csw/libexec/gam_server.OFF Note that most application will gladely run without the gam_server but output the following messages on the standard error: failed to find gam_server Failed to connect to socket /tmp/fam-peter/fam- (avidemux2_gtk:3364): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: FAMOpen failed, FAMErrno=3 (avidemux2_gtk:3364): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to find default local directory monitor type the last line is output at each file dialog invocation. |

(I'm presuming you are having difficulties on a solaris 9 system. is this true?) I'm pondering.... ugly as it may be.. that the "best" solution, may be to either a) revert to fam (which is more easily disabled) b) make it so that our gnome libs have fam/gam disabled on sol9. only enabled on sol10. Or just not enabled at all. I'd personally be all in favor of a coding fix to make disabling the durn thing simpler(in the fam/gam code)... but the code was just too funky for my level of concentration, the last time I looked at it. Implementations/fixes/takeovers welcome. I'm pretty much worn out of fixing this junk at this point. |

This is on Solaris 10, see the "fsset zfs none" stanza? |
