Kernel debug info?
by Ross S. W. Walker 09 Sep '07

09 Sep '07

Ok, I got blktrace installed, but I also have some blktrace system taps that I want to test out, but it seems I need to have the kernel debug info installed to get systemtap working. Anyone know where the CentOS kernel-debuginfo RPMs are located? Ross S. W.

Where is the blktrace utility?
by Ross S. W. Walker 08 Sep '07

08 Sep '07

I keep reading that RHEL/CentOS 5 supports blktrace, but I can't seem to find the blktrace/blkparse utilities. Is it that just the functionality is available in the kernel, but the user is left to have to hunt down the latest versions of the utilities on the net? If anybody knows where to get the latest versions of these utilities I would greatly appreciate it. Ross S. W.

CentOS promotion team at T-DOSE in Eindhoven (NL) on 13-14 Oct 2007
by Dag Wieers 08 Sep '07

08 Sep '07

Hi everybody, CentOS will be present for the first time at the Technical Dutch Open Source Event (T-DOSE) in Eindhoven, NL. We have a booth at the entrance as well as a presentation about Virtualization, presented by Daniel de Kok (danieldk). No doubt the presentation will include information about the new CentOS Virtualization SIG ! (Other topics are still accepted for T-DOSE) If you're interested to be more involved with CentOS, helping out at the booth, volunteering to give a presentation or organising your own presence or event is a good way to meet CentOS community members and users. Feel free to contact me for more information or join the centos-promo mailinglist and introduce yourself. More information about the T-DOSE event and other events is available from: http://wiki.centos.org/Events Hope to see you there ! -- -- dag wieers, dag(a)wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors]

Help with External USB drive on RH/Centos 5
by Scott Ehrlich 07 Sep '07

07 Sep '07

Another issue to tackle - I have an external 1 TB drive (2 500GB on a RAID). When I plug it into the server, it sees, via /var/log/messages, that a USB device was plugged in, but that's it. fdisk -l doesn't see it. dmesg doesn't do much, either. It is a Western Digital My Book II device. I want to format it and use it for external storage, but can't until I get to it. What is the best way to get to the drive? Thanks. Scott

Problems in x86_64 Centos 5
by Erkki.Aalto＠Helsinki.FI 07 Sep '07

07 Sep '07

We upgraded a 64 bit server from Centos 4 to 5 and encountered some strange problems. Tcsh segfaulted irregurarily and emacs gave irregurarily strange error messages about regular expressions. Both problems disappeared when a 32-bit version was installed instead of the 64-bit. Ldconfig still occasionally segfaults. 64-bit servers where Centos 5 was installed from scratch have no problems. It is like there were some sort of remnant of the previous OS, but I can't figure out where. Strace of a 64-bit tcsh usually ends like this: open("/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", O_RDONLY) = 3 fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=55537056, ...}) = 0 mmap(NULL, 55537056, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, 3, 0) = 0x2aaaaaae0000 close(3) = 0 brk(0) = 0x15b30000 brk(0x15b30800) = 0x15b30000 --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) --- +++ killed by SIGSEGV +++ and ltrace gives: __libc_start_main(0x405180, 1, 0x7fff89087298, 0x440b30, 0x440b20 <unfinished ...> setlocale(5, "" <unfinished ...> sbrk(0) = 0x141f1000 sbrk(2048) = 0xffffffffffffffff --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) --- +++ killed by SIGSEGV +++ Does anyone have any ideas? -- Erkki 'Örkki' Aalto "Life is divided up into Internet: Erkki.Aalto(a)Helsinki.FI the horrible and the miserable" Snail: P.O.
