HDD problem?
Hey,
I'm not sure if I should start the topic here or in the fedora section (since the machine is running fedora 10), but hell...
Here's the dmesg | grep -i dma output:
Code:
PCI-DMA: Using software bounce buffering for IO (SWIOTLB)
ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x1c50 ctl 0x1c44 bmdma 0x1c10 irq 17

The machine's very slow. I can't restart any daemon (just say's failed), after restart the problem was solved, for a few days, and the error occured again. |

It seems if it were an HDD problem you'd see it fairly quickly on start up. Is /var/log/messages showing anything about troubles reading from or writing to disk?
My suspicion based on your symptoms would be that you have a memory leak or runaway process that is slowly eating memory over time. You might want to monitor memory. (See man pages for commands "free", "vmstat" and "top" with "m" toggle.)
Also sometimes if there are multiple copies of the same command running they often can slow the system down like this without being obvious. I once saw a system that had been tuned for peformance for a large Oracle database and tested before it went live. After it went live its performance deteriorated significantly. Nothing was obvious from other tools but running a "ps -ef" let me know that we had many user (admins, dbas and developers) all running top in their own windows and worse yet about 30 users running a rather inefficient script someone had written for monitoring our scheduling software. Once I had management tell them all to quit that system performance was normal.

The drive may be failing. I would use either SMART (smartctl -t long) or badblocks or both to check for signs of imminent failure or bad blocks.
There are also useful utilities on this disk:

Based on your syslog it does appear you're having disk errors. I'd go with TexMex' recommendations.

Did you backup your data ? Do so ASAP, then buy a new HDD.
