Latest kvm packages for CentOS 5.3
by Federico Simoncelli 10 Jun '09

10 Jun '09

Hi all, I've been working quite extensively with kvm on CentOS 5.3 lately. If you are interested in the latest rpm of kvm-kmod-2.6.30-rc8, qemu-kvm-0.10.5 and libvirt-0.6.4 you can temporary find them here: http://update.nethesis.it/kvm/ I've had no problem so far using these packages. Feedback is welcome. -- Federico.

There were some bugs that were being chased down > about 2 years back, but i dont *think* anything has come from it yet. Out of curiosity, would those be bugs be ala CentOS or ala Hercules? IMHO the entire idea of "z/CentOS 5.3" faces serious devaluation if z/CentOS is unable to IPL within a "Hercules Iron" environment. After all it is for the most part those that have neither access to real iron, nor the licensed and supported variants of RHEL 5.3 that are interested in CentOS or that have no need for the level of support provisioned by an RHEL contract. In the case of z/systems, this would likely impel one to believe that the very same populous of users are monetarily challenged to obtaining the very bare iron needed to leverage "z/CentOS" thus leaving them with the Herculean option for their foray into z/Linux. Now, if the dysfunctional state of "z/CentOS 5.x" within Hercules is not CentOS centric, but Hercules centric, then the issue must be raised in the Hercules development community to compel its resolution. I know a lot of the folks within that community, I would think their attentiveness to such an issue would forbear a most accurate and expeditious extirpation of the offending bug once noticed to its existence. > > -- Very Respectfully, IT2 Stuart Blake Tener, USNR Las Vegas, NV / Beverly Hills, CA / Philadelphia, PA / Washington, DC Amateur Radio Call Sign: N3GWG (Extra) / Marine Radio Operator Permit (MROP) email: teners(a)bh90210.net (also carbon copies to my Blackberry) phone: +(1) 310.358.0202 (Beverly Hills, CA, forwards to mobile phone) phone: +(1) 215.338.6005 (Philadelphia, PA, voice mail only) E-Fax: +(1) 928.437.4505 (Telecopier, fax to email gateway) Military emails (checked monthly until remote NMCI access is secured) NIPRNET: stuart.tener(a)navy.mil NIPRNET: stuart.b.tener(a)us.army.mil NRO: teners(a)nro.mil TS/SCI: tenerstu(a)nro.ic.gov (GWAN) Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and/or privileged information, though strictly at the UNCLASSIFIED level.

Getting some z's
by IT2 Stuart Blake Tener, USNR 06 Jun '09

06 Jun '09

CentOS Users/Developers: It interests me to find out if and or when any such CentOS 5 for z/system will be forthcoming? I use Hercules and would love to play with CentOS under z/system via the Hercules emulator. Funny how my personal mainframe has an "Apple" on it, and is 17" in size, ay? :) If not, I am curious how difficult it is to generate an entire z/distro from compiling it from source? I was told the source can be compiled via an easy script, but I can't imagine that is true for z/systems. I am planning on getting a new server for development and such, how hard would this be to create? -- Very Respectfully, Stuart, N3GWG

by Alberto Castillo 05 Jun '09

05 Jun '09

Hi folks! Sorry if this is very strange that I speak about fedora here, but I have trouble and I do not how resolve, in fedora lists I hope that can response me too! Last night, I can run my micro distro with a 486 and 4MB ram + vnc client to a Fedora 10 vnc server. The cuestion is that when I connect the server give me in same time 2 instances of gdmgreeter!!! in short: when I connect I can see too login screen one on top of the other, and I when I login with a user, this can enter fine, but still I have the login screen mix with the Desktop!!! I can not out from sessions! I never seen that before... Some idea? The configuration of vnc server and xinetd is the same that k12ltsp centos5 Thank you for read! Alberto Castillo PD: I edit the mail. that have find that only with resolution 800*600*16 occurs this. In 640*480*16 do not have problems, I revisited all the code and I do not find anything wrong.

[CentOS-docs] Proposal for standardized mugshots
by Dag Wieers 31 May '09

31 May '09

Hi, The first issue of the newsletter is being finalized to be released on Tuesday. For this we wanted to personalize the content a bit (and also credit contributions) by adding mugshots when we report about people and/or get contributed content. To facilitate this, we need a standard to refer to these mugshots and for this I'd like to propose the following convention for everyone who wants his mugshot to be used: DagWieers/DagWieers96.png This mugshot then would be used also from the Team's page: http://wiki.centos.org/Team as well as on your personal homepage, eg. http://wiki.centos.org/DagWieers It would be great if people can already provide this mugshot so that I don't have to harass people when I need/want them ;-) If you don't want a mugshot, please add a blank/black image with the same name or provide an alternative, that helps to understand your wish. Also if you could take the time to update your profile on the Team page (the minimum overview information leading you into your personal homepage) then that would be appreciated too. People interested in helping with the Newsletter can get early Newsletter access too. We are still looking for people to manage certain sections, lots of information is already available at: http://wiki.centos.org/Newsletter We won't allow the newsletter to fail :-) Kind regardsn -- -- dag wieers, dag(a)wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors] _______________________________________________ CentOS-docs mailing list CentOS-docs(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs

Web Environment Design
by Alain Reguera Delgado 29 May '09

29 May '09

Hi Guys, Actually CentOS uses many free software applications to handle its needs. Those applications have their own design and when you see them as a whole they don't visually fit among them. Additionally, when you are in one application, for example the wiki, there isn't always a visible link referring other sections, like forums, bugs, docs, downloads, projects ... Don't know if you are agree with the idea of a common and predictable design for the applications we use; so I've organized some ideas in the following wiki page for you to consider and improve: http://wiki.centos.org/WebsiteVer2/WebEnvironment As part of these ideas a redesing for mailman application was requiered: http://wiki.centos.org/WebsiteVer2/WebEnvironment/Mailman Others applications may be modified to ... but before that I would like to know what do you think about it. I would like to be focused on what CentOS really needs for its improvement. Best Regards, -- al. -- http://www.fastmail.fm - A no graphics, no pop-ups email service

by David Hrbáč 27 May '09

Hi, within the update to 5.3 I guess it would be interesting to provide sqlite enabled repos. yum-3.2.19-18.el5.centos is prepared for that. Regards, David Hrbáč
