Hello,<br><br>I'm running digikam-0.9.3 on kde-3.5.8 on FreeBSD 7.0-RC1.<br>If I launch digikam via<br><br> truss digikam (which is like strace digikam on linux), it works<br><br>If I launch digikam the first time I start X, it works.
<br>But if I quit digikam and launch it again, I get only the splash screen and<br>digikam stop doing anything after "Found dcraw version: 8.81".<br><br>ps says digikam is in Idle state and top says it is in the sbwait state.
<br>gam_server (comming from the gamin-0.1.9 port) is also in the sbwait state.<br>If I kill gam_server, digikam resumes its normal operations.<br><br>So may there be some kind of dead lock issue with these two ?<br>What can I do, since gamin is a digikam dependency ?
</blockquote><div><br><br>not directly, but digiKam use KDirWatch to handle change of directories contents to update automatically database information about image files and albums from root collection directory.<br><br>
If you look at KDirWatch class doc :<br><br><a href="http://api.kde.org/3.5-api/kdelibs-apidocs/kio/kio/html/classKDirWatch.html">http://api.kde.org/3.5-api/kdelibs-apidocs/kio/kio/html/classKDirWatch.html</a><br><br>...you can read KDirWatch use :
<br><br>"The implementation uses the FAM service when available; if FAM is not available, the DNOTIFY functionality is used on LINUX. As a last resort, a regular polling for change of modification times is done; the polling interval is a global config option: DirWatch/PollInterval and DirWatch/NFSPollInterval for NFS mounted directories."
<br><br>If something is wrong with FAM FreeBSD port, this can be have side effect on KDirWatch, and of course on digiKam...<br><br>Best<br><br>Gilles Caulier<br><br><br></div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
