Package: procps Version: 2:4.0.4-6 Severity: normal The "idle time" information output by "w" (in the IDLE column) is incorrect. It is a common, arbitrary value for all entries, which does not seem to be related to any idle time. It can be something like "2days" or "7days", and can be reset for an unknown reason.
This can be tested with "ssh localhost" (or a ssh from another machine), then "w". -- System Information: Debian Release: trixie/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'proposed-updates-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.7.12-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_WARN Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages procps depends on: ii init-system-helpers 1.67 ii libc6 2.40-4 ii libncursesw6 6.5-2+b1 ii libproc2-0 2:4.0.4-6 hi libsystemd0 256.7-1 ii libtinfo6 6.5-2+b1 Versions of packages procps recommends: ii linux-sysctl-defaults 4.10.1 ii psmisc 23.7-1 procps suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
