It should run i386 code all-the-same. That what I thought. But KnoppMyth and CentOS4 i386 *both* repeatedly hung during the install process. x86_64 installed without a single hiccup. >>Thus, my plan B is going with CentOS4 x86_64 >>and installing from the ATrpms collection. > > > Be careful in going to a native x86-64.

All I know is ATrpms has a full set of MythTV el4.x86_64 packages and they all installed without complaint. ((now lets see if they run...)) >>- I picked up a cheap Radeon 7000 with TV out.

That's good to know. But after chatting with Scot here, I'm going to use the TV out on the PVR-350 that's installed.

Can someone please tell me how I can add quota to users accounts. I'm only new so please keep it simple for me. What I need to do is just allocate each user 1 gig of disk space.

up2date upgrade-to-release question
by Alexandru E. Ungur 26 Sep '05

26 Sep '05

Hi all, I just wanted to ask if anybody did a # up2date --upgrade-to-release=4.1 on CentOS 3.5 box? I did it and I'm having a bit of problems. The box just dies... at intervals between half a day and a couple of days. Initially I considered it was a hw problem, so I had the tech support check it out, and they just switched the box with another, and put the harddisks back on the new box... Unfortunately the dying problem remaind so that's why I started considering that maybe something other that hw could be the problem. So did anybody on the list do such an upgrade, and was it all 100% ok ? TIA, Alex

This may be a tad O.T., but I have to ask somebody. In compiling WRF model, everything seems to build but at runtime, I get this error message: real.exe: /usr/pgi/linux86-64/6.0/lib/libpthread.so.0: version `GLIBC_2.3.3' not found (required by /lib64/tls/librt.so.1) There appears to be something missing from the library, but not being smart enough to know what each one provides, nor know how to look at it, I'd sure like some pointers if anyone cares to help. If you need more info, I'd be happy to go offnet with it. Sam -- Snowman

Belkin OmniView SE 4-port has one aggravating attribute: can't switch in less than 1500ms. Pressing the scan button faster than this is ignored, whereas I want to switch NOW. Performance is flawless beyond this. Other (rare) problems come from system software not seeing a mouse, then seeing one. If the mouse isn't seen during boot-up, I must run kudzu manually to get it seen. The system that has the least problem (meaning never has a problem at all) with the magic disappearing/reappearing mouse is Windows xp pro. *sigh* Brian Brunner brian.t.brunner(a)gai-tronics.com (610)796-5838 >>> mike(a)CamaroSS.net 09/25/05 05:09PM >>> centos-bounces(a)centos.org <> scribbled on Sunday, September 25, 2005 4:00 PM: > On Sun, 2005-09-25 at 14:28, Ryan Lum wrote: >> What KVMs do you use?

gnome-terminal / mutt / chars mixed up
by Henk van Lingen 26 Sep '05

26 Sep '05

Hi, I have a little problem with characters/lines getting mixed up and I don't know where to look or how to google for a clue. I've a CentOS 4 system on which I use gnome-terminals. When I use mutt (mutt-1.4.1-10) in such a terminal, in some situations it mixes-up the lines in the terminal. It seems in some way it fails to 'refresh' all lines. For example, if I have a line bind index M current-middle in my .muttrc and I press 'M', it happens. Any ideas? I didn't have this prob with CentOS 3, using the same mutt conf.
