How to install kvm?
by Kanwar Ranbir Sandhu 26 Aug '09

26 Aug '09

Hello All, I want to install kvm in CentOS 5.3. The instructions on the wiki are fine and dandy, but the kmod-kvm package is for an older kernel. The box I want to install it on is up-to-date with the latest kernel packages. How do I install kvm on a fully updated CentOS 5.3 box? Is installing the older kernel my only option? BTW, I'd post this on the virt-list, but I have a hard time getting answers on that list.

ath9k in CentOS 5
by James Szinger 26 Aug '09

26 Aug '09

Hi, I'm thinking about updating the wireless card on a CentOS 5.3 box. The Wiki at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless says that the "ath9k driver ships with CentOS", but I can't find it. I've tried modinfo, locate, yum search, and yum provides, but they all come up empty. Am I missing something, or is the Wiki need correcting? I've also searched the CentOS forums and others share my confusion. Thanks, Jim

by Morrien, Rob 26 Aug '09

26 Aug '09

Hello, at this moment we use redhat and centos on mylaptop. I upgraded from centos 5.2 to 5.3. I have something strange, my auto update is not running any more, if I start the update process manually and it is working. If i do a clean install of centos 5.3 on a pc or laptop it is working. My question is why is the auto update not running any more afther the update process.

Thunderbird installed for python dependency?
by Bowie Bailey 25 Aug '09

25 Aug '09

I was starting to run a yum update on one of my servers and noticed that it wanted to install Thunderbird for some reason. Running yum with the '-v' option gave this output: gamin-python-0.1.7-8.el5.i386 requires: /usr/lib/python2.4 --> Processing Dependency: /usr/lib/python2.4 for package: gamin-python Needed Require is not a package name. Looking up: /usr/lib/python2.4 Potential Provider: python.i386 0:2.4.3-24.el5 Mode is u for provider of /usr/lib/python2.4: python.i386 0:2.4.3-24.el5 Mode for pkg providing /usr/lib/python2.4: u Cannot find an update path for dep for: /usr/lib/python2.4 Searching pkgSack for dep: /usr/lib/python2.4 Potential match for /usr/lib/python2.4 from python-2.4.3-24.el5.i386 Potential match for /usr/lib/python2.4 from thunderbird-2.0.0.22-2.el5.centos.i386 python-2.4.3-24.el5.i386 is in providing packages but it is already installed, removing. TSINFO: Marking thunderbird-2.0.0.22-2.el5.centos.i386 as install for gamin-python-0.1.7-8.el5.i386 Why is it trying to get the python lib from Thunderbird when the Python package is already installed? I don't really want Thunderbird installed on a server. Any suggestions? Thanks -- Bowie

Terminal emulation and serial ports
by Robert Moskowitz 25 Aug '09

25 Aug '09

I have to reinit a firewall that can only be done from its console port, and I do not have an XP system with Hyperterminal on it. So I went through the archive and learned that minicom could do the job for me. I installed it and went to configure it (minicom -s). I can set the speeds, but the challenge is selecting the serial device. I have a Serial-to-USB dongle, and when I connect it, the gnome hardware browser is showing a FIDI usb serial converter that was not there before connecting the dongle. But what /dev/thingee do I put into the minicom configuration?
