Building rpm-s from binaries
by Tomasz Napierała 11 Aug '07

11 Aug '07

Hi, We'd like to simplify deployment of new blades and I need to package some of proprietary libs we are using, and obviously I don't have sources for them. Can anybody point me into good direction how to make packages from binaries? I have basic knowledge about building rpms, but it seems to be source oriented. Thanks in advance -- Tomasz Napierala System Administrator Allegro Team http://www.allegro.pl/

Unable to add new device Intel Coporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG
by andy.allen＠virgin.net 11 Aug '07

11 Aug '07

Using CentOS 5 - installed ipw2200 firmware and tried to set up new eth1 wifi device, but adapter Intel Coporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG doesn't show up in list of adapters when I try add New Device (ipw2200 does show up on hardware tab as ipw2200 eth1 ethernet configured). I've noticed that when I run system-config-network on command line, these errors show up: (system-config-network:3160): libglade-WARNING **: Error loading image: Failed to open file '/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/gui/network.xpm': No such file or directory (system-config-network:3160): libglade-WARNING **: could not convert string to type `GdkPixbuf' for property `logo' Is this significant and if so what can I do to rectify - thanks, Andy -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web.com What can On Demand Business Solutions do for you? http://link.mail2web.com/Business/SharePoint

yum install libstdc++-devel
by Tony Schreiner 10 Aug '07

10 Aug '07

On CentOS 4.5 (x86_64); happening on several different machines with libstdc++ and libstdc++-devel v. 3.4.6-8 only one of the i386 or x86_64 versions of libstc++-devel is installed if I yum install libstdc++-devel it will install the x86_64 version and remove the i386 version, but not warn me. Similarly if the i386 version is installed it will install the x86_64 and remove the i386, without warning. But if i remove libstc++-devel (and necessarily gcc-c++), then reinstall with yum install gcc-g++ libstdc++-devel both versions of libstdc++-devel will be installed.

Re: [CentOS] Can't get ipw2200 to work in CentOS 5 on Dell laptop
by andy.allen＠virgin.net 10 Aug '07

10 Aug '07

Thanks again Phil, I've added alias eth1 ipw2200 to /etc/modprobe.conf, but I still can't get it to a) recognize eth1 and/or b) to list the Intel Coporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG adapter, so I can't confiure eth1. I'm obviously missing something, but with the help of people on the CentOS list, I think I'm creeping nearer to the eventual solution, so any more help is much appreciated!

Now that you mention it, IIRC I had to add "alias eth1 ipw2200" to /etc/modprobe.conf to get eth1 to show up on my laptop.

Custom vmlinuz/initrd.img ??
by drew einhorn 10 Aug '07

10 Aug '07

Unless I am barking up the wrong tree. I need to build a custom vmlinuz/initrd.img. I am using cobbler http://cobbler.et.redhat.com/ and am trying to get it to work with VMware, When I imported the CentOS 5 installation CD cobbler selected a vmlinuz/initrd.img and stuffed them into /tftpboot/images/CentOS5-i386/ I don't betlieve this vmlinuz/initrd.img supports the WMware network drivers. How do I check what drivers are supported in this vmlinuz/initrd.img pair? If as I suspect I need to add support for the vmware nic drivers, how do I do that? -- Drew Einhorn

Can't get ipw2200 to work in CentOS 5 on Dell laptop
by andy.allen＠virgin.net 10 Aug '07

10 Aug '07

I've installed ipw2200-firmware-3.0-3.nodist.rf from RPMForge using yum OK. I've loaded the ipw modules with /sbin/modprobe ipw2200 and then /sbin/lsmod | grep ipw which gives: ipw2200 136873 0 ieee80211 33417 1 ipw2200 However, when I run system-config-network I don't see Intel Coporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG (eth1) in the list of adapters. Also, when I type the following command # dmesg | grep ipw I get this message: ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.2.0kmprq ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2006 Intel Corporation usbcore: registered new driver ipwtty drivers/usb/serial/ipw.c: IPWireless tty driver v0.3 I've had loads of help so far from the CentOS list, for which I'm really grateful, but don't seem to be much nearer to getting wireless networking on my Dell Inspiron laptop - any more help much appreciated.

inexpensive / reasonably priced workstation / server development box
by Robert - elists 10 Aug '07

10 Aug '07

We are testing some simple low bandwidth video and audio broadcasting using real server and client softwares. So, for quick check and simplicity, we were plunking along TESTING on an 3.2GHz XP box and I noticed frames were getting dropped on the broadcast just for resizing a window on the screen during the session. Talk about totally lame... I know this can be a big deal and start conflicting opinions yet I need some experienced perspective please? Can anyone chime in on what they use or what they would buy if they were going to have a workstation box for development that could double as test server and have good high speed storage and excellent video and audio etc etc Im thinking of a box that does audio and video development, can easily handle virtualization, and of course do general work apps plus setting up various server processes for testing whether intranet or internet etc etc It can be premade like specific dell or hp (please list component choices for clarity) OR A hand built box with specific list of components that Now, I know this has been done in magazines with great expense, and even with lower expense, yet I trust the list more than a magazine that wants to sell me advertising etc Thanks in advance - rh
