In addition to what the others said: > rpcidmapd 0:on 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:on --> missed something that seems to be related to nfs i believe. or at least rpc/portmap. > kudzu 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off --> you can turn this off if you don't change hardware too often. and you don't plug in any usb camera's or flash drives or burners, etc. > sshd 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off --> you said you didn't need ssh, turn this off. > cpuspeed 0:off 1:on 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off --> does your cpu support auto throttling of it's speed (ie power management?). if not, turn this off. > gpm 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off --> do you need mouse support in the console? if not, off. > irqbalance 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off --> i may be wrong, but this is supposed to be for multi-processor machines. if you only have 1 cpu, turn it off. any comments on this one? as far as i've read it's for smp machines. > cups 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off --> do you print or share a printer? if not, off. > atd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off --> do you need one-time scheduled commands? if not, off. of course my comments are to be acted upon after a little bit of research to confirm my comments regarding the services and their use, as well as your own machine. good luck! dex
