CentOS in the Media
by Dag Wieers 13 Feb '05

13 Feb '05

Hi, The last couple of months CentOS was reviewed a couple of times, and with the latest piece that Johnny posted, I decided to make a collection. I've put the most interesting pieces inside the Wiki. I tried to only consider valuable articles/reviews/slideshows, both the positive and negative articles and also articles about CentOS related stuff. (Not news-items or general blog-entries) You can find it here: https://wiki.caosity.org/tiki-index.php?page=CentOS+in+the+Media If you remember another insightful article that's missing, please add it. PS I never liked Wiki's much, but this one is definitely the one I enjoyed most. -- dag wieers, dag(a)wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [all I want is a warm bed and a kind word and unlimited power]

Does anyone know how I can get USB Flash worked on CentOS 3.4? I am new to CentOS and I do not know anything about the OS. Even though I inserted USB Flash onto my computer, nothing happened on my computer! Cheers, Ken __________________________________________________________________ Switch to Netscape Internet Service.

problem with plesk on centos

Hi, Am running CentOS with plesk 7.5.1 and get this error trying to use the updater in Plesk which updates Plesk plus adds dependencies that Plesk might need: Preparing for packages installation... ----- begin of output ----- Installing perl-CGI-2.81-88.7.i386.rpm warning: /root/psa/PSA_7.5.2/RHel3_std.updates/perl-CGI-2.81-88.7.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID db42a60e file /usr/share/man/man3/CGI.3pm.gz from install of perl-CGI-2.81-88.7 conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9.rhel3.art file /usr/share/man/man3/CGI::Apache.3pm.gz from install of perl-CGI-2.81-88.7 conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9.rhel3.art file /usr/share/man/man3/CGI::Carp.3pm.gz from install of perl-CGI-2.81-88.7 conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9.rhel3.art file /usr/share/man/man3/CGI::Cookie.3pm.gz from install of perl-CGI-2.81-88.7 conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9.rhel3.art file /usr/share/man/man3/CGI::Fast.3pm.gz from install of perl-CGI-2.81-88.7 conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9.rhel3.art file /usr/share/man/man3/CGI::Pretty.3pm.gz from install of perl-CGI-2.81-88.7 conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9.rhel3.art file /usr/share/man/man3/CGI::Push.3pm.gz from install of perl-CGI-2.81-88.7 conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9.rhel3.art file /usr/share/man/man3/CGI::Switch.3pm.gz from install of perl-CGI-2.81-88.7 conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9.rhel3.art file /usr/share/man/man3/CGI::Util.3pm.gz from install of perl-CGI-2.81-88.7 conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9.rhel3.art ----- end of output ----- ===> Autoinstaller: stopped logging at Fri Feb 11 14:24:22 2005 I have found out that when I did a perl update I inadvertantly updated with a third-party listing that was in my yum.conf file the broke some dependencies which I have disabled. I really didn't realize that I had installed perl from this third-party. Would it be possible to run this without breaking anything? I have ecommerce stores running. yum remove perl-5.8.5-9.rhel3.art and then run the updater within Plesk to install their perls plus all the updates from Plesk? At the moment I cannot update plesk because of the constant error above. Thanks! Sincerely, Melinda Odom www.designhosting.biz 479-471-0891 -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

CentOS CPU Temperature - Mini-HowTo
by Seth Bardash 12 Feb '05

12 Feb '05

Ok, Way too many requests. SO..... here's my Mini How-To. Use of this is at your own risk, Blah Blah Blah legal disclaimer applies..... ;-) Download from either: http://secure.netroedge.com/~lm78/ or http://www.integratedsolutions.org/downloads/i2c-2.8.7.tar.gz http://www.integratedsolutions.org/downloads/i2c-2.9.0.1.patch http://www.integratedsolutions.org/downloads/i2c-2.9.0.tar.gz http://www.integratedsolutions.org/downloads/lm_sensors-2.8.7.tar.gz http://www.integratedsolutions.org/downloads/lm_sensors-2.9.0.tar.gz WARNING: We have not finished testing 2.9.0 and there seems to be a few bugs there. So we recommend downloading the 2.8.7 files above.... NEXT: un-tar.gz the files to directories in home go to your kernel source directory: edit Makefile to read the same as the installed kernel (uname -r) (delete the word "custom" at the end of the line: EXTRAVERSION = -27.0.2.Elcustom) run make mrproper run make oldconfig run make dep run make clean The above sets up the kernel source so you can build and install the i2c and lm sensors drivers correctly. cd to i2c directory under /home run make clean run make all run make install cd to lm sensors directory under /home run make clean run make all run make install do an extra depmod -a (just in case :) ) ignore any unresolved symbols messages if you get them run sensors-detect and read the outputs carefully test the lines that the sensors-detect script tells you to add to rc.local one at a time to make sure the appropriate drivers load successfully. If they do you're all set. Next: Just add the lines required to /etc/modules.conf and /etc/rc.d/rc.local and reboot. Your i2c and lm sensors stuff will start at power up. You can test the output with the sensors command. You might want to look in the /home/lmsensors ( cd /home; find . -name "sensors*.*" ) directories for the newer sensors.conf file and copy it to /etc. Modify the new one to give you the output you want. Here is a script that we use when doing burn-in on our systems to monitor the time they have been running and the latest temps - we test under full load using cpuburn-1.4. #! /bin/csh # temp display shell script # ISSLLC sab 3/04 echo "" echo "Starting" echo "" @ counter_s = 0 @ minutes = 0 @ hrs = 0 echo "Burn Time = $hrs hrs $minutes mins $counter_s secs" echo "" while (1) sensors | grep emp sleep 10 echo "" @ counter_s += 10 if($counter_s == 60) then @ counter_s = 0 @ minutes += 1 if($minutes == 60) then @ minutes = 0 @ hrs += 1 endif endif echo "Burn Time = $hrs hrs $minutes mins $counter_s secs" end echo "I'm Done..." After its all working properly, have a drink and say "thanks Integrated Solutions" ;-) Let me know if this was helpful. Best, Seth Bardash Integrated Solutions and Systems 1510 North Gate Road Colorado Springs, CO 80921 719-495-5866 719-495-5870 Fax 719-337-4779 Cell http://www.integratedsolutions.org Failure can not cope with perseverance! -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

CPU temperature?
by Johnn Tan 11 Feb '05

11 Feb '05

Has anyone gotten lm_sensors to work on a CentOS3.3/RHEL3 box? I think I'm having CPU temperature-related problems, and wanted some way to monitor it. I believe lm_sensors does this, but can't seem to figure out how to get it to work. I already did "yum install lm_sensors" but when I run sensors-detect, it complains: Couldn't open /proc/bus/i2c?!? at /usr/sbin/sensors-detect line 2970, <STDIN> line 3. I googled around, but there appear to be more questions than answers. I'd appreciate any help. FYI, this CentOS3.3 server is remotely managed.managed. johnn

Ken, Importing the key fixed my problem. Thank you. I adjust the comp time, hopefully I will no longer be coming back from to the future. Thanks again.
