Help with gcc 4.3.x and libfortran errors
by Scott R. Ehrlich 20 Jun '08

20 Jun '08

I am trying to install gcc 4.3.0 or 4.3.1 on a 64-bit CentOS 5.0 machine, fully patched, and keep getting: make[3]: *** [libgfortran.la] error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory /path/to/source/libgfortran make[2]: *** [all] error 2 make[2]: leaving directory /path/to source/libgfortran make[1]: *** [all-target-libgfortran] error 2 make[1]: leaving directory /path/to/source make: *** [all] error 2 Web searching has yielded a myriad of hits, including various bug reports. Is this a known bug with a workaround, or do I need another package to make it work, or do I need to adjust my configure line to make things happy? Thanks for any insight. Scott

And sorry if this isn't the right place to ask :)

Desktop Effects -- questions/issues
by fred smith 20 Jun '08

20 Jun '08

Hi! I finally tried enabling the desktop effects yesterday. I'm using an old Nvidia card (GeForce 4 MX440) with, of course, Nvidia's drivers. this is on a fully updated Centos 5 system. Enabling from the gnome menu doesn't exactly work compltely, one needs to google around a bit to find out the remaining magic incantations to make it fully work. So, I've done that and it's working. Issues: 1. I notice that the text in the bar at the top of each window appears to be a different font, and it is outlined in black. Is there any way to tweak that setting? 2. If I have a window that is slid partially off the edge of an individual desktop it now oveerlaps the edge of the one "next" to it, when it never did before. Not sure if I like that or not, is there any way to change that behavior should I decide I don't like it? 3. I have (and always have had) the panel settings set to "autohide". I now notice that it sometimes does not hide itself until I explicitly click in an empty part of the panel, then somewhere else on the desktop. Anyone know if there's a way to resovle this? Question: Should I decide I want to revert to the way it was before I enabled these effects, how would I go about that? there is no "disable" button on the gnome menu, only the "enable" button. I know how to un-do the changes I made manually in the xorg.conf file, but no idea how to undo whatever it is that the "enable desktop effects" button does. Clues would be appreciated.

remote access info please
by Gary 20 Jun '08

20 Jun '08

Hi ya'll, I built a new CentOS 5.1 server for a client, housing a Lotus Notes / Domino server, and various other virtualized IBM software server guests, and soon will have to physically move that server to another distant location. My question is that I will need secure access to those servers via X, not just the C/L terminal. What do you recommend for a good secure CentOS program which would do this. Would also want to access via a high port, but I am sure just about any program will allow this to be manually configured. Thanks for your help and input. -- Regards, Gary

linux rescue on usb thumbdrive
by Jerry Geis 19 Jun '08

19 Jun '08

I believe the same issue I see with running "linux rescue" on a USB drive is the same issue I am having why the thumb drive wont boot. When installing I have to use expert mode I just cant install directly as the USB disk is not seen. What happens extra in expert mode? some delay somewhere??? When doing a linux rescue it looks for existing installations and finds none. This is because the USB disk is not yet ready. If I do "fdisk -l /dev/sda" from the shell given it is not there, wait a couple second do it again and NOW the fdisk -l /dev/sda shows the device... Its just like when you stick a USB disk in a working machine. takes a few second to be mount-able. So the big question is how do I get the USB disk to be recognized a FEW second later? The boot is happening tooo fast and I think and my USB disk is not yet ready. That is why it cant find my ext3 file system on the disk. I am so close to getting this thing running. Any suggestion/comments on what I am finding and how to get past it? Thanks guys. jerry

YUM and installing older versions of software.
by James B. Byrne 19 Jun '08

19 Jun '08

How does one specify a particular version of a software package to yum to install? Is this even possible? What happens to superceded pacjkages in repos? Are they simple removed/discarded? yum install package-X.Y.Z-A.el5 ??? The reason I ask is if a yum update goes awry for some reason then how does one revert to the previous (working) version? I seem to recall that up2date had a feature whereby one could locally archive superseded packages and rollback to a previous version was required. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

struggling with simple webdav
by Craig White 19 Jun '08

19 Jun '08

Normally I use authzldap to authenticate LDAP users but in this case, I have a client that wants non-LDAP users to be able to use DAV. The twist is that there are several virtual hosts on this server and perhaps that is confusing things... anyway, my httpd.conf has... <Location /webdav> Dav On AllowOverride None Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AuthType Basic AuthName "DAV-ADV" AuthUserFile /var/www/html/passwd/user.passwd # require valid-user <Limit PUT POST DELETE PROPFIND PROPPATCH MKCOL COPY MOVE LOCK UNLOCK> Require user craig </Limit> </Location> and my user.passwd works because I can login fine. but when I try to save a file - say with OpenOffice to... http://www.example.com/webdav/test.odt I get this error (always)... Error saving the document Untitled1: The object cannot be created in http://www.example.com/webdav/. but the directory has suitable permissions I would think... # ls -ld webdav drwxrwsrwx 2 apache apache 4096 Jun 19 08:33 webdav so I changed the group on this folder... # chgrp users-all webdav # ls -ld webdav drwxrwsrwx 2 apache users-all 4096 Jun 19 08:33 webdav which craig is definitely a member of and still the same error... Anyone? Craig
