20:58.32 | IrishW0lf | plarsen: howdy! I think I found out why my main box was having problems |
20:58.57 | plarsen | IrishW0lf: yeah? |
20:59.36 | IrishW0lf | HD crashed on my last night. Got it going long enough to make a dd image, but it indicated it was having I/O errors |
21:00.38 | IrishW0lf | my=me |
21:01.01 | plarsen | ahhhh - so you think it's been going bad for a while and caused you wierd issues? |
21:01.18 | IrishW0lf | yes i do |
21:01.39 | IrishW0lf | mainly keyborad freezing up |
21:01.57 | IrishW0lf | and not shutting down properly |
21:03.33 | IrishW0lf | thank God for journaling |
21:05.12 | IrishW0lf | replaced the HD with another that had been zeroed out and did a install from scratch |
21:07.50 | plarsen | Make sure you get "smart" compliant hdds ... that way you should get a heads up on issues like that. |
21:08.49 | IrishW0lf | i think it is, but i don't have smart enabled at this time |
21:09.44 | IrishW0lf | am i right in thinking that smart is enabled through the BIOS |

23:10.45 | stickster | IrishW0lf_afk: Right, you turn it on in the BIOS, but there is a also a daemon you can run in Linux that will monitor the messages coming from the drive |
23:10.55 | stickster | Otherwise it can put out messages all day long and you won't know about them |
23:11.17 | stickster | There's probably a *smartd* service somewhere on your system |
23:11.51 | IrishW0lf_afk | thanks stickster, i'll check it out |
23:11.55 | stickster | np |
