[Bug 311045] Re: Constant hard drive activity

[technoboi]

I can't see an option, on this page, to re-open this bug report, so I am
just making a comment - maybe that will re-open it???

I get this problem with Mythtv. It has occurred on more than one install. I have a remote frontend/backend and, on my desktop, I use a frontend. However the unused backend, on the desktop constantly accesses the disk. It is irritating to listen to so I have a button on the top panel to close down the unused backend. I have tried removing the backend program from /etc/init.d - that does NOT stop the problem. It only removes a way of switching the offending program off. Thus, I conclude that it is a program that the backend accesses which causes the problem but NOT the backend program itself because, as I stated, I can remove /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend, reboot,  and the problem still occurs.
I have checked out the mysql.txt files, as detailed in an earlier post, but they are all OK and only feature the correct IP and password for the REMOTE backend server.

If you require any logs etc. please let me know which ones and I will send them accordingly.
 

I use Karmic and MythTV 0.22 on both the desktop and also on the remote
'server' backend/frontend.
