Does anyone else get poor Virtualbox performance with Kernel26-ck?

I don't know if it's BFS itself or one of my customized options specifically, but if I try to play Netflix inside my Windows XP virtual machine it is terrible and my CPU load is quite high.
If I boot into the stock Arch kernel I do not have this problem. Anyone else experience this?

So it seems like it's just me and my config.
uname -r is different, and I have compiled the kernel modules for it.
It is only in the last few weeks/month that the performance issue is there.
Sometimes, when I run the VM, it'll drop me to TTY1 which a bunch of magic output, but it's not a kernel panic. I can switch back to my graphical TTY and everything is fine except the VM is just a black window and has to be forced to close via my WM.
I'm not sure what kernel config options would do something like this. I have my timer frequency at 1000Hz, which is the main thing I've seen on the Google that can cause problems.
I am on a Core i3 processor with intel graphics.
If I post my kernel config, do you think you'd be able to spot anything that would mess up Virtualbox in this subtle way?
Any ideas? I'm guessing I'm probably on my own.

Anyone else get a NX6800 TD128 with GDDR3?

I did. When I got it back from Rma, I didnt notice the box, i paid more attention to puttin it back in my system so I could be playin again. Last night I noticed it said "128mb DDR3" on the box. So today, I found a program to determine specifications and sure enough, I've got GDDR3 memory. I guess that explains why I can get it up to 350/950. Just curious, did anyone else get GDDR3 on there 6800nu?

that´s the gift from MSI,everyone who have problem with this card,just send it to RMA headquarters and they give you DDR3.but also you can´t say everyone you get it.it´s secret.they wanna you as a potencial customer again and that is the reason.but as i now you must pay a shipment to them,but it´s still less money than the 6800 GT or ULTRA costs,and with DDR3 you can have it from this card.......very good.....i wanna problemous 6800non-u

Does anyone else get the error message :iCloud has unexpectedly stopped"?

I am visiting South Africa and realy heavily on access to my iCloud. For the past 48 hours iCloud seems to be down and I keep getting the error message "icloud has unexpectedly stopped". Apple has not acknowledged the problem, yet. Does anyone else experience similar issues? Any suggestions on how to access icloud.com?

I'm having the same problem on my wife's computer. I successfully joined several shared calendars from my account, and suddenly started getting this message on the last one. I've tried again repeatedly over the last 24 hours, including sending a new invitation, logging her out of iCloud website, etc.
Did you find any resolution to the problem?

100% CPU usage... does anyone else get this?

Here is my code. I would have simplidied it for you... but I honestly have no idea where it went wrong.
One second it is running fine, the next it starts taking up 100% of my CPU cycles. I can't figure out what I did to it to make it do this... nothing I added creates an infinite loop or infinite threads. It's just... weird.
The code is probably too big for anyone to look at and tell me what's wrong, but can someone else download it and tell me if you also get 100% CPU usage? It needs to be run on Windows... it uses a couple JNI calls that are Windows-specific. Those calls were the first place I looked when trying to find the problem, but I have not changed that part of the code for a long time, and it has never been a problem before.
Don't run the bat file... just navigate to the Watchdog2 directory and do 'java Watchdog'.
Are there any tools that can help me figure out where the program is getting hung up? It's not freezing at any specific spot... just moving super slow and taking up 100% of my CPU. I'm so confused...

Nevermind!
Sorry for the trouble. The problem was that last time I compiled the code, it reverted back to and older version of a class I had compiled days ago. Why it did this is totally beyond me... but it did, and it just so happens that the old version of that class combined with the new version of my program were the perfect recipe for an infinite loop.
Seriously, if you are in inveterate debugger, you might get a good laugh out of this. I've spent the last week and a half trying to find a way to set the Windows console into cbreak mode (single character processing rather than line-at-a-time processing), and I finally managed to do it by writing some c code and putting it into a DLL with the JNI. So now my program (which runs from the console) can process each character as it is entered rather than waiting for a line return. The older version of the class that got reverted was one that used System.in rather than the input stream generated by the socket. I had set it to System.in for testing purposes, and apparently that testing version is the one it got reverted back to. So combine the two, and you have a console that is feeding System.in each character as it is pressed and a socket wrapper that is listening infinitely. It was a mess... but an uncannily serindipitous mess...
Ahh... debugging... good time...

Does anyone else have this much trouble with Verizon Customer Service?

I cannot get any Verizon Customer Service to answer me through email or correct their errors through their store or through the telephone customer service. I have written to them three times with no reply back (although it says it will be answered within 48 hours), gone to the Verizon local store, and called them numerous times.
Ever since I purchased three i-pads for my sons as Christmas gifts my life has been nothing but stress while dealing with Verizon and Best Buy while trying to get a jet pack added to our account through Best Buy and trying to straighten the mess out through Verizon.
My bill is so messed up, of course in their favor, and they cannot seem to figure out how to fix it or else they don't want to take the time to fix it.
I own my own business and they should know that you NEVER just IGNORE the customer. They eventually do go away (to another company). When a company will not ANSWER complaints...there IS a problem! I am taking the next channel up.

This is what happened. I bought the three i-pads at Best Buy because that is where we buy all of our computer products and it didn't occur to me to buy them at Verizon...Hence, that is why it went through a third party. Later, I found out I would have paid a much higher price, according to a Verizon salesperson, so I am glad that I didn't. But anyway...I bought two jet packs with the three i-pads because I didn't think two of my kids had internet connection so of course, I wanted them to be able to use the i-pads when they opened their gift on Christmas. I have a business account with three smart phones already with Verizon. The Best Buy salesman attempted to put the two jet packs on my business account, but he said they would not transfer on that account because it was a business account, so he had to open a new individual account and that Verizon would transfer it over to my business account. Right then, I could see dollar signs. That is why I went to the Verizon store the next morning (Christmas Eve) to straighten it out before letting it go on any longer. I explained everything to the sales person and he assured me that he fixed everything. I explained to him that I wanted to add the two jet packs on to our account...and for them to share our 6 GB of DATA at the present time until we could see how much we used first. Seems that one of my sons did have internet and he didn't need the jet pack. I called Verizon and was told to return it to Best Buy and I would not be charged for it since there was NO USAGE of data on that jet pack. We returned that jet pack. HOWEVER, the wrong jet pack was cancelled. So the one that was taken back was not cancelled through Verizon (it remained active) and the jet pack that we kept had no service and was cancelled. Was that Verizon's fault? Or was it Best Buy's fault? I don't know...but it was not my fault! My son lives out of town and he had to bring his jet pack in to Best Buy in order to get service on his jet pack reinstated. So therefore, he went a week without service, yet we were still being charged for two jet packs...$ 50.00 PER jet pack plus they tagged on 5 GB PER jet pack, which is not what we signed up for. The charge should be $ 20.00 per month to add the jet pack on to our business account. We are aware that we can contact Verizon *611 to talk to an agent because we have talked to them approximately five times already. I have emailed them three times with no reply. I have never had a problem before this, but I never had any issues so never had a reason to contact them or deal with customer service before. Jimfitzgerald...the reason people deal with a third party is that it saved us $300.00 from Verizon's price and we purchased these for 18 months with no interest. Had I known that Best Buy and Verizon do not work well together, I might not have ever bought these at all...But we have one jet pack now that we added to our account and still are being over charged for the two jet packs @ 50.00 per jet pack @ 5 GB data each...totally ridiculous. My son tried to straighten it out and was told by Verizon that we had one of the jet packs since 2011 and the other one since December 2012. Finally, Verizon said they understood and would straighten it out...But our bill is still wrong. How do you get them to answer your complaints? How do you get them to understand? If I don't pay our incorrect bill, they told me they will cut off our service and they are our business phones. Suggestions?

HT1218 Does anyone else have a constant problem with losing connection with smart phone due to airport

phones are constantly searching for internet connection My time capsule/air port is always losing internet connection----anyone know how to solve this?

Wireless interference is probably the cause.
If there are competing wireless networks in your area, there is little you can do other than to use 5 GHz with all the devices capable of it. For iOS devices, only iPads and the newest iPhone is. Macs have supported 5 GHz for many years.

My iPad just stopped recognizing wifi, but my iPod and iPhone are working well. Does anyone else have a wifi problem with their iPads?

Today my iPad simply stopped recognizing the house network. I have an iPod Touch and iPhone4 that aren't having any problem with wifi.

First, try Airplane-Mode for 10 seconds. If this doesn't help, try resetting the network-configuration. This can be accomplished by heading to Settings --> General --> (at the very foot of the page) Reset --> Reset Network Settings. Then reboot iPad.
However, if all that didn't help, you can get to a near Apple Store, or, in case of functionality, there's still the guarantee.

I have two iPhone 4 at home, slow slow downloads. One of them I've tested WiFi at work, Same issue. e.g. Apps take forever to download over WiFi compared to a AT&T-3G connection.

I have only just got an iphone 4 which I immediately updated to ios7 so have nothing to compare it with. But it doesn't even see networks that come up clear on the macbook. Same thing for a colleague in the same spot. previously I had an android phone which picked up just fine.

Does anyone else get text messages from 6250: VZWNMN:1 ?

Does anyone else experience jittery playback even with Mac Pro 2013?

I completed installing all my software on a new Mac Pro late 2013 and eagerly began working in Final Cut Pro 10.1.1 to see how much more improved my editing experience would be versus my old 2010 27" iMac. I was already experiencing jittery playback that would occur usually right after clicking the play button, but I'm sad to say that I'm still having that issue with the new computer.
My specs are:
3ghz 8-core xeon, 32 GB RAM, dual Firepro D-500 graphics and my projects are not stored on a Pegasus R6 thunderbolt RAID 5.
I really expected skimming and playing back smoother like a hot knife through butter, but I'm dissapointed. I don't know if this is just a FCPX issue that still needs fixing, or if it's something that everybody experiences.

Thank you Russ. Here's more info and also when I said my projects were "not" stored on the RAID, that was a typo. They ARE stored in the same Library as the event on the RAID.
Media originals: H.264 MOV files shot with Canon DSLR at 23.98 fps 1920x1080.
Transcoded files: Optimized and Proxy
Project settings: Manually set at 1920x1080, 23.98fps, Pro Res 422, 48kHz sound.
Project playback: Proxy mode
There are no multicam clips created. I've created a few compound clips, the majority of which are for the purpose of linking a video track to another audio track (syncing cleaner audio recording).
The Library contains the one project I'm working on (the wedding video) and the one Event that contains the media. The footage in the event is of a wedding day with about 1,100 clips total, all of which are identical in format and settings so there's no mixing of frame rates, etc. The Library is stored where I store all my other libraries from other jobs: On the external thunderbolt Pegasus RAID.
I don't have any other events in the Library. My workflow is to have a new Library created for each job and keep everything together in it.
The current project I'm working on was created on 10.1.
To be fair, I'd like to clarify that the jittery issue is not a constant and is not as bad as when I was working on my 2010 iMac using a single disc external firewire drive to store my libraries. On that machine, I accepted the playback issue considering my firewire wasn't fast enough. The jittery playback I experience now on the Mac Pro is very minimal (Like sometimes for about 2 seconds right as I click Play), but my concern is why do I have it at all considering my footage type isn't as demanding as say multicam clips or complex composites or 4K media, and that the Mac Pro combined with the RAID are so fast.
I may perhaps have unreasonable expectations from this machine. The reason I decided to invest in it was to have a glitch free editing experience and not have to worry about slowing myself down to let the computer catch up. The thing is, If this is normal, then my frugal mind would tell me why not return this expensive Mac Pro and save thousands with a maxed-out new iMac combined with my thunderbolt RAID?

Getting strange call every 2 weeks anyone else get...
