How can I diagnose a total system lockup?

When I run chromium and a game (Dota 2 or CS:GO) simultaneously, my system sometimes completely freezes, and I am unable to do anything including switch to a different tty. I can usually run these at the same time, and my memory usage is about 55%. However, sometimes, the lockup occurs and the disk led goes crazy. How would I go about diagnosing this problem? Which logs should I check?  Thanks!

Have a look at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=190669 and https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=190247.
You could run "dstat -cdnmgs --top-io --top-bio --top-cpu --top-mem" and try to catch its output before the freeze.

  • How can i find out total no of sunday in the year

    Hi Experts,
    how can i find out total no of sunday's in the particular year. please can any one help how can i do that
    Regards,
    Arun

    Just for fun (and in case this wasn't done to death in the other thread), the rule posted here states:
    Most years have 365 days, but a leap year has 366 days. That adds up to 52 weeks (where each week is exactly 7 days) PLUS 1 or 2 additional days. The year 2012 has exactly 366 days.Now if the year starts on a Sunday in a non-leap year, you end up with 53 Sundays. Or if either of the first two days lands on a Sunday during a leap year, then you can also get 53 Sundays.>
    which allows a calculation like this:
    with test_data as
         ( select rownum + 1999 as test_year from dual
           connect by rownum <= 15 )
    select test_year
         , case
              when first_day = 'SUN'
              or ( first_day = 'SAT' and leap_year = 'Y' )
                 then 53
              else 52
           end as sundays
    from   ( select test_year
                  , to_char(to_date(d.test_year||'-01-01','YYYY-MM-DD'),'DY', 'NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE=ENGLISH') first_day
                  , case extract(day from last_day(to_date(d.test_year||'-02','YYYY-MM'))) when 29 then 'Y' else 'N' end as leap_year
             from   test_data d );
    TEST_YEAR    SUNDAYS
          2000         53
          2001         52

    How can I transfer my files/system in VAIO laptop (w/ S400 Firewire port) to my New Macbook Pro?
    Do I need to buy an adapter? How do I setup the software to make these two system connected?

    Thanks for your answering. But the issue is that I'll often transfer a large amount files from PCs to the Macbook, and I'm explring the way to use firewire since there is indeed an i-S400 port in the VAIO laptop, and it's much faster.
    USB 2 is faster than Firewire 400 and USB 3 is faster than Firewire 800
    If it was another Mac you were transferring from then you could use Firewire Target Disk Mode which makes the boot drive of the old Mac appear on the desktop of the new Mac to rapidly copy files, but you have a Windows PC with no FWTDM capability.
    So to connect the two machines requires a network be setup over Ethernet and mucking around with the complexities of all that and it still takes awhile to finish. One can't setup a network with a PC over USB or Firewire, only Firewire with another Mac.
    You get a external USB drive, USB 3,2,1 is fine and just drag and drop copy, the machine does all the work and you go do something else until it's finished, then repeat the same with the Mac.
    Fast simple and effective, let it copy overnight if you have too.
    I routinely clone my entire hard drive via USB 2 and it only takes a hour and a half for 350GB.
    By the time you figure out how to network a Mac and a PC over Ethernet and getting it work to transfer files, you could be done already via USB.

    You will need Snow Leopard which is available as a retail disk for $29 from the Apple store or online resellers. Make sure your Mac meets the system requirements; 1 GB RAM is the absolute minimum - 2 GB would be better.

  • How can we reset the   active system status  when we are trying to change

    Hello SAP,
    I am using the transaction  code 'CJ20N' .
    For this transaction code, I need to put one validation when user is trying to change the system status to 'TECO'.
    Once, user changed the system status  and trying to save , we need to put the previous system status.
    For e.g. : system status is 'REL'. Now user set to 'TECO' and CLICK on save button, system status  need to change 'REL'.
    Could you please explain me that how can we delete the buffer system status 'TECO' and reset to active status 'TECO '.
    Thanks and Regards
    Srini

    You can't delete an account, you can only stop using it.  If you're getting that error message you won't be able to create a new account on your device.  Your only options are to re-use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account on a different iOS device or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher), if you have one.

  • How can I calculate the total time in java?

    Hello!
    I need to calculate the total time!
    For example I have start time:
              Format formatter1;
              Date date1 = new Date();
              formatter1 = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm:ss");
              String startTime = formatter1.format(date1);
              //startTime = "14:20:40";
    And I have finish time:
              Format formatter2;
              Date date2 = new Date();
              formatter2 = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm:ss");
              String finishTime = formatter2.format(date2);
              //finishTime = "08:30:55";
    So, after manually calculating, I get total time: "18:10:15"
    How can I calculate the total time in java? (Using formatter1 and formatter2 I suppose)
    What I need is to print "total 18:10:15"
    Thanks!

    I did the following but, I think something is wrong here:
    I defined before: Date date1 = new Date(); Date date2 = new Date();
    And it should be exactly 5 seconds between them.
    I found delta between date1 and date2:
    Format formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss");
              long timeInMilliFromStart = date1.getTime() - date2.getTime() ;
              Date date3 = new Date(timeInMilliFromStart);
              String timeInSecFromStart = formatter.format(date3);
    and I get always
    //timeInSecFromStart = 02:00:05
    But it should be exactly 00:00:05.
    What can be a problem?Because, like I said, a Date measure an instant in time, not a duration. So when you have 5000 ms, and you turn that into a Date, that means 5 sec. after the epoch, which works out to 1/1/1970 00:00:05.000 GMT.
    As I mentioned, if you're not currently in GMT, then you have to set the TZ of the DateFormat to GMT. Right now, it's showing you the time in your TZ. If you included the date in your SimpleDateFormat, you'd see either 1/1/1970 or 12/31/1969, depending on which TZ you're in.
    Bottom line: You're trying to use these classes in a way they're not meant for, and while you can get the results you want for a limited set of inputs if you understand what these classes do and how to work with that, it's a brittle approach and comes with all kinds of caveats.

  • How can i find screen group system field?

    Hi all,
    How can i find screen group system field?
    Thanks,
    Nidhi Kothiyal

    Hi,
    Do you mean by the screen-group which we give for the fields to be active or inactive in module pool?
    You can find it in the attributes window which comes by double clicking on the field. In that give the group name in the 1st box in GROUPS.
    Thanks,

  • How can I find the total number of songs in my iTunes library?

    I just downloaded the new itunes.  In the previous itune library at the bottom of the screen it told me how many songs I have total.  Not just purchased, but how many total songs were in my library.  I liked knowing this because I could verify my ipod was synced up properly.  Sometimes a song wouldn't download from my computer to my ipod, and by knowing how many songs were in the library, it was a double check.
    This song count is gone now with this new itune version.  There no bar at the bottom of my screen that shows me song count and I've gone through all the settings and can't figure out how to know this without manually counting the songs.  Any help is appreciated.

    Dear,
    In the top menu, you can choose 'view', and subsequently 'show status bar'. This shows the information on the bottom of the window.
    kindest regards,

  • How can I see the total number of books (size of library) on iBooks on my iMac and IPad Mini?

    I have installed iBooks on both my iMac (main library) as well as on my iPad Mini Retina. I can't seem to find where to see the total number of books in each library? Can anyone enlighten me please? I can see the covers, lists etc. but nowhere how many books I have total in each library (Total: X number of books stored) or something like that. Can someone point me where this information is viewable?

    Did you have 'find my iPhone' activated on it? Because if you go to iCloud.com you can log in there and you can remotely lock or wipe your device.  From what I hear, the police won't do anything about going and fetching stolen iPads and iPhones, but if you have find my iphone/ipad/ipod/mac turned on then it will give you a map of where it is. 
    Just keep in mind that sometimes iTunes does ask you for your password regardless, and only a few weeks ago apple brought in security questions, so everyone had to fill in security questions for their iTunes account to make it more secure If all else fails, ring Apple cusomer support and they might be able to bar your account or something, however you may have to make a new account (the might be able to set it up so you have all your previous information on a new account)
    Hope this helps!
