oom-killer.
by J.J.Garcia 14 Dec '05

Hi all, Just watching for my first time the 'oom-killer' call in a CentOS 4.2 workstation. System was running normally but with high load of nice process, iow, rosetta and seti, others appart, nautilus, etc... i realized that after a night of standby running normally, the next moorning after few manual operations from X-session in local console, it started a massive swapping, this time not recovered as previously other time, finishing in a oom-killer call. Finally inspected the syslog and realize the oom-killer was called to leave the system stable having killed firefox-bin, 3 x rosetta, xmms and one nautilus. It's a PIII 800 Mhz, 40GB IDE, 512 Mb RAM, 1024 Swap space, up for 4 days. I'm not very xperienced in tunning the memmory system nor the swap system, help appreciated to avoid this memory 'trashing' situtation (14 virtual desktops openned at the same time). Is it a normal situation? Is it a correct protecction measure? It's due a low bandwitch IDE HD? how can i tune it to avoid this situations? is it a high load for this workstation? I think the oom-killer was called correctly to avoid the system collapsed, but i think there was a problem in the swapping subsystem or a memmory trashing situation to avoid. Help and hints appreciated, Attached you'll the oom-killer log, TIA J.J. -- Linux smarteyebox.stigmatedbrain.net 2.6.9-22.0.1.EL i686 GNU/Linux 11:55:01 up 1 day, 12:06, 9 users, load average: 1.20, 1.30, 1.57 --------------------------------------------------------- "Rome wasn't burned in a day.

Horde framework from CentOS Extras
by Alexander Dalloz 14 Dec '05

14 Dec '05

Hi! Anyone of you running the Horde framework applications from CentOS Extras RPM install? Since yesterday's security update I can no longer safe the application's configuration from withing the browser administration. For each required setting with a dropdown menu the dialog claims that I missed to make a selection, while of course I did. Just to note: yes, the filesystem permissions for the config directories are temporary changed to allow the apache user to write the config.php files. SELinux is in permissive mode. Nothing logged in ssl_error_log. Can anyone confirm this? I do not see a report in the Horde mailing list.

Kernel Panic - Not synching Machine Check
by Vikas 14 Dec '05

14 Dec '05

This server was running fedora core 2 till 12/2/2005. It had an impressive uptime of 180 days or so. On friday I upgraded to CentOS 4.2. After upgrading to CentOS 4.2 this server has been throwing kernel panics every 10 hours or so. These are some of the error messages I am getting on the console: "CPU 0:Machine check exception :4 Bank 0 : f672100000000833 TSC 112180365ccf ADDR e2c7f7c0 Kernel Panic - Not synching Machine Check" This is a production server. I would appreciate any help. S

Printing Postscript - Very Weird Problem.
by Maciej Żenczykowski 14 Dec '05

14 Dec '05

Hey folks, okay, here's the situation - I have a Centos 4.2 system with cups printing installed printing via postcript (with appropriate PPD file) to a HP LaserJet 1320N printer (via jetdirect socket 9100). Everything seems to work right - except for an unusual 'font'??? problem. Many letters seem to be just slightly garbled. At first I thought this was a mechanical problem at the printer (for weeks), but just this morning I took a closer look and realized everything was too regular for it to be a mechanical failure (ink smearing or something). Anyway the problem is that the bottom non-empty scanline of _very_ many letters/digits/symbols gets transposed over ontop of the topmost non-empty scanline of the same character. This results in the following conversion (rough ascii art - note there's a lot more scanlines involved due to far higher resolution, which means this is far more invisible). | AA | | AA AA | | AAAA | | AAAA | | AA AA | => | AA AA | | AAAAAAAA | | AAAAAAAA | | AA AA | | AA AA | | AA AA | | AA AA | Any idea how to fix this? What could be the problem? How to figure out what could be causing it? It's a very good printer which has no other faults, and it's printing the above characters very crisply... (not that it matter seeing as they are bad...). Cheers, MaZe.

Huge OO.org packages installed by default
by Tim Edwards 14 Dec '05

14 Dec '05

I was just wondering if anyone here knows why the OO.org packages on RHEL/Centos are so huge. Eg. On Mandriva 2006: 40834529 OpenOffice.org 113064600 OpenOffice.org-libs 20124669 OpenOffice.org-help-en 19976941 OpenOffice.org-l10n-en = ~185MB On Centos 4: 683298379 openoffice.org-i18n 124072694 openoffice.org 111894560 openoffice.org-libs = ~876MB!! When I say 'installed by default' I mean that I selected the 'Office' package group during the install of both OSes and didn't make any custom package selections. Both OSes have OO.org 1.1 working fine, I'm just wondering why costs me nearly 5 times as much disk space on RHEL/Centos than it does on another distro? -- Tim Edwards

by Peter Kitchener 14 Dec '05

14 Dec '05

All, I have a problem with a new Seagate hard disk. The problem occurs when i go to install CentOS, i insert the cd and start the boot up process, when it gets to the section where it detects the hard disks, the driver is seems crashes, the message it produces complains about no one caring about a interrupt on IRQ11. The hard disk is a Seagate 200GB 8MB SATA150 NCQ drive, on a SilliconImage 3112 PCI adapter card. Does anyone have any ideas? Regards, Peter
