Never used massif, don't know how to use it, but I'll do whatever I'm told on any machine I have, real or VM. What I'm noticing is if the VM is set to 1G RAM I pretty much always see packagekitd crash. And it's too memory limited of an environment for a live to then get any data out of it, even serial console with 'virsh console' hangs up for tens of minutes at a time. If I go to 1.5G RAM the packagekitd crash I'd say is rare, but the sample size so far is maybe 10 boots. I don't know if what you need is a crashed packagekitd to find out why it's crashing, or something else. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ desktop mailing list -- desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to desktop-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
