XFS or JFS on CentOS 5?
by Ray Van Dolson 25 Nov '08

25 Nov '08

Hi folks... trying to pick between jfs and xfs for a filesystem. In the past we've used jfs with CentOS + centosplus, however, an older post indicated that this may not be the best choice as the version of jfs included with the centosplus kernel would only be as new as the version that was included in the 2.6.18 kernel as RH doesn't backport fixes... It looks like xfs isn't part of the centosplus kernel, but instead is provided as a kmod -- so I'm thinking it might be the better choice based purely on the fact that it's likely to be current. Is my understanding correct there? What would stop us from building a kmod-jfs against the latest jfs from the up-upstream kernel and not building jfs.ko in the centosplus kernel at all? It looks like jfsutils is a fairly recent version... Thanks, Ray

Skype vs. CentOS: no outgoing sound
by Niki Kovacs 24 Nov '08

24 Nov '08

Hi, I've spent the best part of a sunny afternoon trying to get Skype to work on my CentOS 5 desktop. My soundcard seems configured OK. I can play sounds and hear them OK in my headset: $ aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/*.wav I can record speech from my microphone OK: $ arecord > ~/test.wav ... although I have to say that sound quality seems rather poor. It's quite fuzzy. Other detail: curiously when I speak into the microphone I don't hear my own voice in the headset. I've installed the CentOS RPM from skype.com, but no matter what I do, I can't seem to have outgoing sound. Whenever I do a test call (echo123), there's no message left. I've been jumping through burning loops giving all the options and their possible permutations a shot, to no avail. Though curiously that thing worked on a Linux Mint 5 install. But then, I won't change distro because of one small detail. Any suggestions? Niki

Correctly setting up sound with Intel High Definition ICH7
by Niki Kovacs 24 Nov '08

24 Nov '08

Hi, Earlier this day I started a thread about Skype not working with outgoing sound. Now I wonder if it's not a problem with my soundcard. I had a vague suspicion about this, but since it's way off the original topic, I decided to start a new thread about this. Here's what the soundcard looks like: [root@grossebertha etc]# lspci | grep -i audio 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01) Actually plain sound (output) works OK. I can use XMMS, MPlayer, VLC and the likes without any problem. On the other hand, when I try to record sound over the soundcard, the result is quite fuzzy, full of distortions. I tried to fiddle with alsamixer to get rid of the distortions, but to no avail. Here's what I did to record sound over the mic: $ arecord > ~/test.wav Now in the past I configured a laptop with an ICH sound card on it, a small ASUS. I spent like whole afternoons googling and searching through forums, until some day I stumbled over the solution. I had to add something to /etc/modprobe.conf, something like: alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel options snd-hda-intel model=3stack ... and all of a sudden sound worked. Now maybe there is also a magic line for my new machine (a lenovo desktop PC) that makes the soundcard work correctly for the microphone? But where do I get that information? Guesswork? Google again for a week? Searching for "centos intel high definition sound" doesn't show much. Cheers, Niki
