About wget
by Manuel Enrique Chavez Manzano 18 Oct '07

18 Oct '07

I've been downloading a software for a friend with wget, but as my connexion to internet is not so good, wget downloaded in three parts by example: SetupDxLabelMakerSoftonic.exe SetupDxLabelMakerSoftonic.exe.1 SetupDxLabelMakerSoftonic.exe.1.1 My question is: Is there any way to join all of this or Do I have to download that again? Hope an answer thanks to all manny -- "Nuestra recompensa se encuentra en el esfuerzo y no en el resultado. Un esfuerzo total es una victoria completa".

Hosed my software RAID/LVM setup somehow
by Kai Schaetzl 17 Oct '07

17 Oct '07

CentOS 5, original kernel (xen and normal) and everything, Linux RAID 1. I rebooted one of my machines after doing some changes to RAID/LVM and now the two RAID partitions that I made changes to are "gone". I cannot boot into the system. On bootup it tells me that the devices md2 and md3 are busy or mounted and drops me to the repair shell. When I run fs check manually it just tells me the same. mdadm --misc --detail tells me that md2 and md3 are active and fine. I wanted to comment out the md2 and md3 devices in fstab (and hoped then be able to boot) but I get a "read-only" warning when writing to it although mount tells me that / is mounted rw. What can I do to boot into the system (the system is on /dev/md1 and seems to be fine) or repair it? The history of the changes is as follows. Originally I had several software-RAID 1 partitions /boot / /home /home2 on /dev/md0 etc. At the time of creation I didn't know I could use LVM on RAID partitions. Yesterday I activated LVM on md2 and md3 as they didn't contain anything valuable and put some data on them. What I did is unmount, then remove from RAID, then initialized LVM, then created the RAID devices again, then created the Volume Groups and Volumes, added mount points etc. All succeeded without errors and was working well thereafter. I worked several hours with data and xen virtual machines on the LVM partitions. The LVM management was done with the LVM manager in Gnome (as I'm not very familiar with LVM), the other stuff was done in a terminal. I assume something is wrong with the LVM setup or LVM doesn't start at all. What/how can I check? Thanks.

SMART Prefailure Attribute messages
by Reuben D. Budiardja 17 Oct '07

17 Oct '07

Hello, My machine is running Software RAID 5 on /dev/hde1, /dev/hdg1,/dev/hdi1. I noticed on the log that suddenly we are getting messages such as : Oct 14 01:27:16 localhost smartd[4801]: Device: /dev/hde, SMART Prefailure Attribute: 8 Seek_Time_Performance changed from 247 to 246 Oct 14 01:57:15 localhost smartd[4801]: Device: /dev/hde, SMART Prefailure Attribute: 8 Seek_Time_Performance changed from 246 to 245 Oct 14 02:27:15 localhost smartd[4801]: Device: /dev/hde, SMART Prefailure Attribute: 8 Seek_Time_Performance changed from 245 to 246 Oct 14 02:27:15 localhost smartd[4801]: Device: /dev/hde, SMART Usage Attribute: 195 Hardware_ECC_Recovered changed from 253 to 252 Oct 14 02:57:15 localhost smartd[4801]: Device: /dev/hde, SMART Prefailure Attribute: 8 Seek_Time_Performance changed from 246 to 245 Oct 14 02:57:15 localhost smartd[4801]: Device: /dev/hde, SMART Usage Attribute: 195 Hardware_ECC_Recovered changed from 252 to 253 Similar messages for /dev/hdi and /dev/hdg also, however it seems that /dev/hde has the most and have been occuring the longest. [root@localhost log]# grep SMART messages messages.1 | grep hde | wc 178 3023 25944 [root@localhost log]# grep SMART messages messages.1 | grep hdg | wc 93 1578 13583 [root@localhost log]# grep SMART messages messages.1 | grep hdi | wc 95 1612 13865 This did not happen a week ago: [root@pathfinder log]# grep SMART messages.2 Checking /proc/mdstat indicates that all the drives are active i.e. RAID is not running in degraded mode. So, is it that suddenly my drives are failing ? Any comment or suggestion is greatly appreciated. Thanks. RDB -- Reuben D.

k3b 1.0.3, qt and C5 64-bit?
by Scott Ehrlich 17 Oct '07

17 Oct '07

I have C5 64-bit running on my laptop and am trying to get k3b 1.0.3 compiled from source. It keeps complaining about qt not being installed or available. I performed a yum install of everything qt, but it still complains. I've read some postings on various web pages about creating symlinks, but although tried, that still didn't fix any problems. What am I missing? Thhanks. Scott

KDE 1.0.3 and kdelibs problem
by Scott Ehrlich 17 Oct '07

17 Oct '07

I'm able to get ./configure to get past the Qt error but now it complains that kdelibs isn't installed, or the version of qt doesn't match kdelibs. Everything was yum installed, and this is on CentOs 5 64-bit. Thanks for additional configuration help. Scott

how to protect RT repository?
by Rogelio 17 Oct '07

17 Oct '07

I'm following the instructions on this URL http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/RT_3.4.x_On_CentOS_4.x and came across the part that said "WARNING: RT overwrites some packages from the base distribution, especially mod_perl" How exactly do I "protect" the RT repository? It links to the "ProtectBase" program http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/ProtectBase ...but what do I mod to protect this RT repository?

Zip password recovery
by Lorenzo Quatrini 17 Oct '07

17 Oct '07

Hi all, sorry if I am Off Topic on this list, but I think that this could be interesting also for other people; anyway: what would be the best way to recover a password from a zip file? And for other type of files (eg. xls, pdf)? I googled a bit, and I can only find ugly/unthrusted ( ;) ) windows programs... what about Linux? TIA Lorenzo Quatrini
