Closing a multi-session disk
by Anne Wilson 04 Nov '08

04 Nov '08

I have a disk which is not being recognised for reading, and I suspect that it may be a multi-session disk which has not been closed. K3b seems to agree with me, since it lists it as an appendable data cd. However, I can't find any way to close the session in k3b. I thought I remembered that it was possible to do that in xcdroast - which is almost certainly the application that burned the disk in the first place. However, xcdroast tells me that no disk is loaded. That brings me to ask those of you that use command-line burning if you know of any way I can close this disk. I suspect the files on it are ones that I don't have elsewhere. Anne

rpm spec question
by Tom Brown 04 Nov '08

04 Nov '08

Hi I am trying to package a bunch of files so that i can deploy them with rpm - Its prtty much just a case of dumping some files on the filesystem. I achieve this with rpm without issue however when i remove the rpm from the system it also removes the dir that contains the files, even though i dont specify this in the %postun. Is there a way to tell rpm to NOT remove files/dir's that it creates unless i request it? thanks

[OT] List of all email users
by Jussi Hirvi 04 Nov '08

04 Nov '08

This is not CentOS-specific, hence OT. I need a list of all email users on my system (there are hundreds of them). The list could be extracted from /etc/aliases and the virtusertable. Does anyone know of a script that would do this automatically? It would have to - exclude commented-out lines (of course) - exclude duplicates - produce a list of usernames (or maybe unresolved email addresses for some users) separated by a comma I imagine perl would be the way to go. I haven't used perl at all myself.

Hi folks We migrated storage from local disk to SAN with: # rsync -avz /mnt/lvol00045/* /lvol00045 Why there is a difference in size? How to explain this? Do we have inconsistency? What we did wrong?

TI USB 3410-5052 for CentOS 4.7
by Marc Ferguson 03 Nov '08

03 Nov '08

Hi, I am trying to build the driver for the TI USB 3410/5052 family of devices. Specifically, I am trying to hook up a MultiTech GSM modem. I have the source for the driver which came with the modem. However, I beating my head against the wall trying to get around the usb-serial.h not found error. I have found references saying usb-serial.h has been moved. Even though I have pulled down kernel-2.6.9-78.src.rpm I can not find the .h to make things compile. Any assistance would be greately appreciated (a prebuilt driver would be even better). Thanks Marc Marc Ferguson Trapeze Group 757-961-9224 x304

device driver useage
by Geoff Galitz 03 Nov '08

03 Nov '08

Under Centos 5.X, how can I determine with 100% certainty what driver is associated with a given device other than referencing dmesg? For example, what tool can I use to tell for sure what driver is attached to my eth0 device? I have searched the web, but could not find anything that answered my question.
