CentOS 5 partial update
by Florin Andrei 15 Jan '08

15 Jan '08

I've a couple CentOS 5.0 x86_64 systems, the software was updated a while before the transition to 5.1 The systems run a LAMP software. I'd like to do a "yum update" excluding mysql and the kernel, therefore upgrading the whole thing to 5.1 with the exception of the excluded packages. I wonder if this might cause any problems. Of course I could do some tests myself, but I'm asking here for real-life feedback, in case someone else did the same thing. -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/

hdX vs sdX on centos 5.x with ata_piix
by Farkas Levente 15 Jan '08

15 Jan '08

hi, on centos 5.x and fedora 6 there are hdX and sdX while from fedora 7 (and probably centos 6.x) there will be only sdX. is it possible with the latest centos kernel to use the same ata_piix driver to handle all disk (ie. both pata and sata) so we've only sdX disk devices like it's the current setup on newer fedora release. we try to disable ide0=noprobe etc. which really disable hdX but even if the kernel load the ata_piix driver it's still not load these disks. thanks in advance. -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!"

Firefox and Flash
by Niki Kovacs 15 Jan '08

15 Jan '08

Hi, I have CentOS 5.1 with the latest updates running on all my desktops. Firefox has the flash-plugin from RPMForge installed, and I think this is the cause that it crashes quite often. Is there a more stable Flash plugin somewhere? I had a similar problem on Slackware 12.0 with the "stable" plugin from Adobe. I replaced that with the "development" version from labs.macromedia.com, and after that, Firefox crashed much less. It's a pity that the folks from Red Hat chose Firefox as their "default" browser. I've been using Seamonkey for some time and found it 1) as pleasant to use 2) much more stable and 3) much less RAM-consuming. cheers, Niki

Making a NAS/HFS server
by Steve Campbell 15 Jan '08

15 Jan '08

I ran into a problem that I couldn't resolve straight away, but would like to solve for sometime in the future. We have a Thecus storage server (similar to a Buffalo TeraByte, if that helps?) that has a Mac filesystem on it. The mother board was failing, but the drives are still OK. A new box has been added, so the urgency is sort of gone. I was going to try and back up the data to a new CentOS 5.1 box I had until the new Thecus arrived, but ran into the problem of Mac resource forks not being copied when I mounted the Thecus as a CIFS system. Is there a commonly used procedure to do the above task of copying a Mac (HFS, I think) system to a linux box from the linux box? This sort of runs into another project we have in the works where we want to make the equivalent of a SAN/NAS type storage system. We want to have a cluster of Centos boxes running for shared storage, and have the ability to add to it seamlessly. But now, I'm wondering if it won't run into the same problem with the HFS or other filesystems that may be used. I understand NAS storage sort of handles the different filesystem protocols by interface, so I wondering if anyone has a pointer to something like this also. Google keeps pointing me in a circle back to an old HFS+ driver that sort of stopped development in 2003. The trail ends very abruptly. Sorry to be so windy, but offer thanks in advance for any clues. Steve Campbell

strange sar statistics: total CPU 90% in userspace, but CPU 0 and 1 only 1%
by Simon Jolle 15 Jan '08

15 Jan '08

Hi Centos Users The server (ProLiant DL380 G5, Centos 4.3) was not responsible anymore (SSH), fans rotated at full power and the console was blank. After restart it seems to be fine. Now I am analyzing sar statistics (in system logs nothing special, unusual). The hardware monitoring with HP tools didn't work. # sar -P ALL Linux 2.6.9-34.ELsmp (cent061) 01/15/2008 12:00:01 AM CPU %user %nice %system %iowait %idle 12:10:01 AM all 90.43 0.00 5.74 3.83 0.00 12:10:01 AM 0 0.91 0.00 0.07 0.04 98.98 12:10:01 AM 1 1.92 0.00 0.11 0.08 97.88 12:20:01 AM all 73.85 0.00 24.23 1.92 0.00 12:20:01 AM 0 0.15 0.00 0.05 0.00 99.80 12:20:01 AM 1 0.17 0.00 0.06 0.01 99.76 12:30:01 AM all 75.28 0.00 22.47 2.25 0.00 12:30:01 AM 0 0.17 0.00 0.04 0.00 99.78 12:30:01 AM 1 0.17 0.00 0.05 0.01 99.77 12:40:01 AM all 72.09 0.00 24.81 3.10 0.00 12:40:01 AM 0 0.16 0.00 0.04 0.00 99.80 12:40:01 AM 1 0.15 0.00 0.06 0.01 99.78 12:50:01 AM all 73.31 0.00 24.06 2.63 0.00 12:50:01 AM 0 0.14 0.00 0.04 0.01 99.81 12:50:01 AM 1 0.19 0.00 0.06 0.00 99.75 01:00:01 AM all 74.06 0.00 24.06 1.88 0.00 01:00:01 AM 0 0.13 0.00 0.04 0.00 99.82 01:00:01 AM 1 0.19 0.00 0.06 0.00 99.74 01:10:01 AM all 68.02 0.00 24.37 7.61 0.00 01:10:01 AM 0 0.23 0.00 0.09 0.01 99.67 01:10:01 AM 1 0.21 0.00 0.07 0.04 99.68 Average: all 81.85 0.00 14.45 3.70 0.00 Average: 0 0.27 0.00 0.05 0.01 99.67 Average: 1 0.43 0.00 0.07 0.02 99.48 10:17:55 AM LINUX RESTART 10:20:01 AM CPU %user %nice %system %iowait %idle 10:30:01 AM all 0.32 0.00 0.07 0.40 99.21 10:30:01 AM 0 0.35 0.00 0.07 0.44 99.14 10:30:01 AM 1 0.28 0.00 0.08 0.36 99.29 10:40:01 AM all 0.25 0.00 0.07 0.21 99.47 10:40:01 AM 0 0.28 0.00 0.08 0.20 99.45 10:40:01 AM 1 0.22 0.00 0.07 0.21 99.50 [...] How its possible that the total CPU is 90% busy, but CPU 1 + 2 only 1%?

But hcitool con comes up empty. I try hcitool cc 00:07:E0:24:5A:94 and the phone shows connecting, but hcitool con shows an empty list. Of course when I get into Asterisk's CLI and try a mobile show device, it lists the Treo (I did put a section for it in the mobile.conf file) put shows NO for Available. Can anyone help me get direction on getting my phone paired with my system?
