Dear Users:
Went to update our Qube 2 with the latest OS/software updates off the cobalt
site. I found two issues: 1.) The OS 4.0 update will change the smb.conf
file so "oplocks = yes" and 2.) The "Disk Usage Summary" on the user
interface gives a false reading and also gives an amber light, even when it
shows a total of 727 MB's for the "Operating System and Programs"! The
oplocks problem is easy to fix, just edit the file. The amber light problem
appears to be a "glitch" with the UI. Called Tech Support and they said
they were aware of the problem starting with the OS 4.0 update (dated Feb
14, 2001) some valentines day present. I would like to see if anybody knows
how to correct the problem. When we load the Qube back up with files the
"Operating System and programs" seems to grow larger as well according to
the UI. When you do a df in a telnet session, /dev/hda1 never grows larger
than 232 MB's. So it seems to be just a problem with the UI. Anybody have
any suggestions, or insights?
