reiserfs quota
by Jure Pečar 30 Jan '06

30 Jan '06

Hi all, Is there a possibility to get quota patches for reiserfs in the "unsupported" centos 3 (and maybe 4) kernel? If I do the patching myself, what's the official procedure to get them included in your kernel? http://www.namesys.com/faq.html#quota -- Jure Pečar http://jure.pecar.org

centosplus unsupported kernel
by Phil Schaffner 22 Jan '06

22 Jan '06

Just updated to the new 2.6.9-22.0.2.106.unsupported kernel (don't see an Announce entry yet, but yum sees it) and found an apparently-minor glitch in the gcc version when updating my VMware Workstation kernel module: # vnware-config.pl ... snip ... Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override. Your kernel was built with "gcc" version "3.4.5", while you are trying to use "/usr/bin/gcc" version "3.4.4". This configuration is not recommended and VMware Workstation may crash if you'll continue. Please try to use exactly same compiler as one used for building your kernel. Do you want to go with compiler "/usr/bin/gcc" version "3.4.4" anyway? [no] yes What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.9-22.0.2.106.unsupported/build/include] ... snip ... Despite the warning, the build finishes and VMware seems to work OK so far. Checked testing repo for a gcc update and didn't see one. Phil

This might be of interest to CentOS developers
by Alexandru E. Ungur 17 Jan '06

17 Jan '06

Hi, My fiance (who was recently converted to CentOS ;) from Slackware) found something that intrigued us both. You may want to read this: http://rentacoder.com/RentACoder/misc/BidRequests/ShowBidRequest.asp?lngBid… I quote: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Description: The summary of the project is to create a distribution similar to CentOS Linux which is nearly the same as Red Hat Linux - with the exception that Red Hat's graphic images and name have been removed in areas to prevent legal issues. We already have a distribution similar to CentOS with the appropriate graphic files already developed. However, it is now old and needs to be updated.'" [..] "You should actually be able to use the CentOS Linux distribution as your starting point to minimize work efforts." [..] "Deliverables: [..] 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ (No GPL, GNU, 3rd party components, etc. unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the coder's Seller Legal Agreement)." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- end of quote. It seems stupid to duplicate something that already exists and works *very* well (great distro you guys!)... unless I'm missing something. It just pisses me off that somebody could take your work just like that and use it for **unfair** purposes! BTW, you can talk to RAC people if the proposed projects are unfair/illegal which I suspect it is the case here. Have a nice day everyone, Alex

Testing yumex - warnings and errors
by Phil Schaffner 12 Jan '06

12 Jan '06

Tried yumex from testing on a three machines. Installs OK but generates pages of warnings. The unique ones are: (yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `angle' for class `GtkLabel' (yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `ellipsize' for class `GtkLabel' (yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `ellipsize' for class `GtkProgressBar' (yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `focus_on_map' for class `GtkDialog' (yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `focus_on_map' for class `GtkWindow' (yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `hover_expand' for class `GtkTreeView' (yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `hover_selection' for class `GtkTreeView' (yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `single_line_mode' for class `GtkLabel' (yumex.pyc:8494): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `width_chars' for class `GtkLabel' At run-time, finds packages to update and does so successfully, but then pops up a request window with a light bulb and options "OK" and "Cancel". Clicking either does nothing but the box can be closed by clicking the "x" in the top-right corner. The application is still alive and can be exited cleanly from the "File" menu. Output from the window follows: Mirrordetection : best No Groups Available in any repository Repository initialization completed in 14.21 seconds Setting up Update Process Downloading Packages: Checking GPG Signatures: Running Transaction Test Finished Transaction Test Transaction Test Succeeded Running Transaction Updated: python-urlgrabber.noarch 0:2.9.7-1.2.el4.rf Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/yumex/yumex.py", line 228, in on_button self.action.update_packages() File "/usr/share/yumex/yumexClasses/yumexBase.py", line 1071, in update_packages if not self.process_packages( _("Update") ): File "/usr/share/yumex/yumexClasses/yumexBase.py", line 1222, in process_packages rc = yumexDialogs.info_box(self.parent, task, _( "%s completed ok" ) % task ) File "/usr/share/yumex/yumexClasses/yumexDialogs.py", line 674, in info_box dlg = newInfoDialog(parent,title,text,modal ) File "/usr/share/yumex/yumexClasses/yumexDialogs.py", line 930, in __init__ self.dialog.set_icon_name('gtk-dialog-info') AttributeError: 'gtk.Dialog' object has no attribute 'set_icon_name' The Help/About window shows similar button behavior - "Close" has no effect but window can be closed by "x". Can't find an existing entry at bugs.centos.org. Could create one, but perhaps the packager should initiate it. Phil

Feedback request
by Jim Perrin 09 Jan '06

09 Jan '06

If you are using the c4-testing repository from http://dev.centos.org/ please consider providing feedback about the rpms you're using either here to the devel list with a quick email, or (my preference, but open for discussion/suggestions) via bugs.centos.org. We need the feedback for packages to be able to move them to centosplus, extras,addons, or where-ever else they're destined to go. Your feedback will help us to provide stable packages that benefit everyone. -- Jim Perrin System Architect - UIT Ft Gordon & US Army Signal Center
