problem installing centos 4.0 on Compaq Presario SR1722IL
by ankush grover 29 Apr '06

29 Apr '06

hey friends, Recently I purchased Compaq Presario SR1722IL and I tried to install Centos 4.0 on it but it started showing errors like: Uniform CD-ROM driver revision: 3.20 Combo SOLTC-4836k ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive hdc: IRQ Probe failed (Oxfcfa) hdd: IRQ Probe failed (Oxfcfa) hdc: lost interrupt I tried installing FC4 also but same problem persist. Windows 2000 & Windows XP are already installed on the same system that means the Combo Drive is working fine. Then I tried installing SUSE 10.0 with the same Combo Drive and I faced no problem except when it starts "Gnome or KDE" it shows Frequency out of range.. What is the reason that FC4 and Centos4.0 are failing with the installation? What should I do to get rid of the problem ? Thanks & Regards Ankush Grover

Error in ghostscript ?
by Sam Drinkard 29 Apr '06

29 Apr '06

Just tried to run a perl script to do some ripping and converting of a postscript file, and ghostscript bombed out with the error message below. Can someone tell me is this really a ghostscript error, or is there more to it than this? If need be, I can attach the perl script that caused the error, but I think it is OK. Don't have another machine to test it on. Oh yeah, FWIW, this is an x86_64 machine. Thanks...

Running mount in a script.
by Michael Jacks 29 Apr '06

29 Apr '06

I am running CentOS 4 and have the need to run "mount -t cifs ..." from within a perl or bash script as part of an application. The application does not run as root. I have been trying to do a chmod +s on a root owned script but that doesn't seem to work. I still get permission errors. I also took a look at sudo but that appears to require a user to periodically enter a password. This would not work for this application. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do a mount from a script based application not being run as root? Thanks for your help.

os update with plesk
by Melinda Odom 28 Apr '06

28 Apr '06

Hi, I have plesk server administration 7.5.4 on my server and am wanting to upgrade to plesk 8. Plesk 8 supports Centos 4.2 and the notes on the 4.2 readme say: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4.2/readme If you know what you are doing, and absolutely want to remain at the 4.2 level, go to http://vault.centos.org/ for packages. If you follow the other link listed in that doc it goes to the centos vault with this text: http://www.centos.org/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?faqid=34 There is a CentOS Vault containing old CentOS trees. This vault is a picture of the older tree when it was removed from the main tree, and does not receive updates. It should only be used for reference. I will need to keep my server os at 4.2 because that is the only one plesk supports so according to those 2 articles and staying at centos 4.2 will the "vault" files be the one to use and will they get security updates?

Hi; As a prerequisite for IBM's db2 Viper they say: "For RHEL, all available compat-libstdc ++ RPM-packages must be installed." Can anyone please advise how to achieve this quickly via yum? (64bit software running on 64bit centos 4.3.) Thanks; nat

Processes stuck in futex()
by Bart Schaefer 28 Apr '06

28 Apr '06

I'm occasionally seeing processes on my CentOS 4.3 system get hung up, which strace reveals to be waiting on a call to futex(). Previously I'd only ever seen this in mysql on RH9, and google searches for explanations haven't turned up anything useful. Any pointers to where I should look? Is this another one of those things where using the default SMP kernel with a hyperthreaded processor is just a Bad Idea?

pptpclient and dependencies
by Keith Morse 28 Apr '06

28 Apr '06

I'm going thru the documentation for pptpclient located on the pptpclient.sourceforge.net site and am referencing the Fedora Core 3 how-to. The docs refer to installing libglade and libxml and when I do so with a "yum install libglade libxml" no packages are found for installation. In looking at the installed packages I find libxml2. Is libxml2 adequate for libxml or would it be neccessary to install libxml also? Thanks for any help list members may be able to provide.

dag repo and perl dependencies naming
by sophana 28 Apr '06

28 Apr '06

Hi I'm trying to install amavisd-new from dag repo on centos3. In the spec file perl dependencies use parenthesis: perl(Digest::MD5) it also uses '-': perl-MailTools The problem is that only the second notation is available: perl-MD5 I know this is an old problem. Is this only centos related? Is there a workaround? Do I have to modify the spec file? I'd like to use yum... Regards
