Or just work around the packaging system on CentOS? Not a good idea. There are some packages in the CentOS-Testing repository (which require you to give feedback to the CentOS developers via , there is Jason Litka's repository and there is Remi Collet's repository. But: If you have problems with the packages from there, then bug the people you got the packages from - not CentOS. Anyway, all of those means of distribution are way better than working around package management.

Re: Apparently no swap configured

Maybe I am also flirting > with disaster, but haven't been bit yet in years. I believe that the current recommendation is 2 x physical memory up to 2 GB and then 1 x physical memory thereafter. See: http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5.2/html/Deployme… " Swap should equal 2x physical RAM for up to 2 GB of physical RAM, and then an additional 1x physical RAM for any amount above 2 GB, but never less than 32 MB. So, if: M = Amount of RAM in GB, and S = Amount of swap in GB, then If M < 2 S = M *2 Else S = M + 2 Using this formula, a system with 2 GB of physical RAM would have 4 GB of swap, while one with 3 GB of physical RAM would have 5 GB of swap. Creating a large swap space partition can be especially helpful if you plan to upgrade your RAM at a later time. For systems with really large amounts of RAM (more than 32 GB) you can likely get away with a smaller swap partition (around 1x, or less, of physical RAM).

Re: [CentOS] CentOS 4.7 Server CD - update frontpage
by Spiro Harvey 29 Oct '08

I know it's going farther off the beaten topic here, but just received this email of warm wishes from our friend Spike Turner that I thought I'd share. It's not even necessary to insult him, he's done it all for himself.

Installer stopped short
by Niki Kovacs 29 Oct '08

29 Oct '08

Hi, I just tried to install a CentOS 5 desktop on very recent hardware, an Acer desktop machine. The installer stopped short very early. I gave Ubuntu 8.04 a shot, and it installed without a problem. Now what can I do about this? Is there a way to use some "enhanced" kernel (like the centos.plus kernel) to perform the install? I guess what's missing there is a specific driver for something (SATA drive? Processor?). Any suggestions? Niki

CentOS 4.7 Server CD - update frontpage
by Spike Turner 29 Oct '08

29 Oct '08

Perhaps with the release of the CentOS 4.7 Server CD the frontpage at www.centos.org could be updated to reflect this new development rather than 4.4? Here is the announcement for those who missed it http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2008-October/015328.html Spike. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Problem with svn/apache
by Joe Tseng 29 Oct '08

29 Oct '08

I hope someone can help me with this b/c I'm stumped... I had set up an svn repository a while ago with an apache/webdav front end using the default centos packages. For some reason this morning it stopped working for me - it would give me a 403 error. I suppose the problem is with Apache and not svn. So far I've checked the following: I use a couple of files called svn_htpasswd_file (for userids/password hashes) and svn_auth_file (users, groups and permissions) - I verified the files were still apache:apache and were user-readable Just for grins I ran "chown -R apache:apache" on my repository home directory and all repositoriesI made a new user entry in the two files listed above with full admin rightsI restarted httpd and rebooted the serverI made sure the httpd processes were running using apache as userAnd I've run out of ideas. Has anyone else seen this before? - Joe Failure is always an option -- Adam Savage _________________________________________________________________ When your life is on the go—take your life with you. http://clk.atdmt.com/MRT/go/115298558/direct/01/

Can one invoke multiple INSTANCEs of Firefox on CentOS
by James B. Byrne 29 Oct '08

29 Oct '08

I am doing some testing with XForms and I really need a separate instance of Firefox, one that shares nothing with my primary instance that has various reference works and web sites open, to test forms. Is this even possible? I have a sense from the small bit of testing that I have done that even with separate profiles and invoking the firefox process manually from different terminal windows does not provide a completely separate running instance on the desktop. Is there a way to do this? If so then how? Regards, -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.
