Thread: Finally an advantage of 64-bit: no rollover of RX / TX bytes in ifconfig :-)

-

it looks found advantage of 64-bit: no rollover of rx / tx bytes in ifconfig

code:
sander@flappie:~$ ifconfig eth0  eth0      link encap:ethernet  hwaddr 00:24:54:e8:54:31              inet addr:83.128.1.2  bcast:83.128.1.255  mask:255.255.252.0            inet6 addr: fe80::224:54ff:fee8:5431/64 scope:link            broadcast running multicast  mtu:1500  metric:1            rx packets:6490043 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0            tx packets:3153270 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0            collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000             rx bytes:8568780588 (8.5 gb)  tx bytes:1965826863 (1.9 gb)            interrupt:19
see "(8.5 gb)". great.

on 32-bit ubuntu (13.04), after 4.2 gb (2^32) rx bytes counter rolls on 0 gb. btw: think 32-bit should not problem counter, apparently is...


edit

after 8 hours of loading 300 / 300 mbps connection:

code:
sander@flappie:~/oud-downloads$ ifconfig eth0  eth0      link encap:ethernet  hwaddr 00:24:54:e8:54:31              inet addr:83.128.1.2  bcast:83.128.1.255  mask:255.255.252.0            inet6 addr: fe80::224:54ff:fee8:5431/64 scope:link            broadcast running multicast  mtu:1500  metric:1            rx packets:176506360 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0            tx packets:88250953 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0            collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000             rx bytes:265741060173 (265.7 gb)  tx bytes:7640086455 (7.6 gb)            interrupt:19
"265.7 gb" ... that's decent counter!

nice

a week ago in premiere pro cs6 world. one day updated windows, next day few .mp4 video files opened in premiere pro, played fine well, except fact display has green (sometimes multicolour, solid green block) bars in lower third of screen. see screenshot below.   these same files open/display fine in after effects, photoshop , vlc- , quicktime players. i'd read fromyears ago windows updates causing this, removed 1 of therecent kb's no avail. i did install adobemediaencodertrial_64-6.0.3-mul-adobeupdate and dynamiclinkmediaserverretail-1.0.1-mul-adobeupdate and reverted quicktime 7.6 but nothing makes difference.   in end, formatted c:\, reinstalled windows 7 ultimate 64bit , downloaded/installed 260 updates , reinstalled cs6 (and aforementioned ame , dlms updates , qt7.6) it's still same problem.   also tried exporting (part of) 1 of these files, see if wasn't display problem: exported file same properties original has green bars.   what else can do?   thanks in advanc
