startx as normal user from runlevel 4 scriptview story

http://www.linuxforums.org – I was having an issue with XDM not starting my session whenever I used any kind of dhcp client so I have been using startx with fvwm2 in the .xinitrc file. I put 'su - matthew -c "startx" &> /dev/null' in /etc/rc.d/rc.4, but to me this seems like the wrong way of doing this. Is there any better way to set the environment and run startx as a normal user at boot? (HowTos)

Server logs cause high cpu usage??view story

http://www.linuxforums.org – Hi! Is it possible that server log files can cause high cpu usage? My Load Averages are very high (over 12). It appears that mysql is causing it. There was a slow-query log that was 450MB heavy. I disabled it. It seems that the loads went down a bit. Are there any other logs I should consider emptying or disableing? (HowTos)
