I am trying to run a perl script that said it needs Net::SMPP I ran this: your_host]# *perl -MCPAN -e shell* cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.76) ReadLine support enabled cpan> *install Net::SNMP seemed to work. no errors reported. however when I run perl I still get the same error saying needs ./sendmessage.pl Can't locate Net/SMPP.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 .) at ./sendmessage.pl line 18. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./sendmessage.pl line 18. What else do I need? Jerry *

Skype and problem with ALSA mixer driver?
by Andrew 01 Feb '10

01 Feb '10

Having used skype successfully in the past with previous CentOS versions, I haven't yet been able to get it working fully with CentOS 5.3 - the playback sound works OK but I can't get the mic working. I previously used the skype version installed with yum from the skype repo but thought maybe this was faulty, so have just installed the static version (cd skype_static-2.1.0.81). However, the mic still doesn't work and I've notice the following (repeated) error messages on the command line (currently this version has to be executed from the command line): snd_pcm_avail_update() returned a value that is exceptionally large: 203032 bytes (1057 ms). Most likely this is a bug in the ALSA driver. Please report this issue to the ALSA developers. snd_pcm_avail_update() returned a value that is exceptionally large: 201176 bytes (1047 ms). Most likely this is a bug in the ALSA driver. Please report this issue to the ALSA developers. snd_pcm_avail_update() returned a value that is exceptionally large: 199280 bytes (1037 ms). Most likely this is a bug in the ALSA driver. Please report this issue to the ALSA developers. ..........etc Does anybody have any information about this issue/bug and any idea how to solve the problem? Thanks, Andy

Multiple RAID support in CentOS?
by Victor Padro 01 Feb '10

01 Feb '10

Hello, I was wondering if someone could help me, I'm putting together a Server for personal use, I want to virtualize a few servers(mail, web, ssh) and use it as a NAS, but I have a question if I can use Multiple RAID Arrays using the following HW: Intel Xeon Quad Core X3430 ASUS P7F-M LGA 1156 - LSI MegaRAID(integrated) - HighPoint RocketRAID 2640x1 2 Hitachi 500GB HDDs 4 Hitachi 1TB HDDs I want to use one array with the 2 500GB HDDs in RAID1 for the OS and for some VMs, and the other 4 1TB HDDs I want to create an array in RAID5 or RAID10 for file sharing across my home Network. I found a guide but it's a little bit outdated and it's for Debian... Do you have any other pointer I can read/use? TIA. -- Linux User #452368 http://twitter.com/vpadro "Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves"

[FYI] skype-2.0.0.72.nosrc.rpm
by Nikita Izyumtsev 31 Jan '10

31 Jan '10

Greetings! I have been using statically linked skype for a while, but found it uncofortable to install it in contraversion of rpm db, so I decided to package it. You can get nosrc.rpm here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4043330/skype-2.0.0.72-1.nosrc.rpm You can rebuild it in usual way, like that: Install rpmbuild (if it's not installed yet): sudo yum install rpmbuild As an ordinary user, not root, create a directory tree based on ~/rpmbuild: cd mkdir -p rpmbuild/{BUILD,RPMS,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS} echo '%_topdir %(echo $HOME)/rpmbuild' > .rpmmacros Download and install nosrc.rpm: cd ~/rpmbuild/SRPMS wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4043330/skype-2.0.0.72-1.nosrc.rpm rpm -i skype-2.0.0.72-1.nosrc.rpm Download and install non-distributable* tarball: cd ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES wget http://download.skype.com/linux/skype_static-2.0.0.72.tar.bz2 Rebuild binary rpm package: cd ~/rpmbuild/SPECS rpmbuild -bb skype.spec * Actually, skype is _redistributable_, pld-linux ships it on it's spins, but as far I understood it is somewhat problematic to come to agreement with Skype. P.S: spec file is loosely based on pld-linux implementation Nikita

Adobe Acrobat Reader 9.3 - slightly OT
by MHR 31 Jan '10

31 Jan '10

I've noticed recently that the latest version of Adobe's Acrobat Reader (9.3) has a really annoying tendency to stop for 30-60 seconds shortly after it starts up to read/display a PDF file. I don't see this on my Windows copies, just on CentOS. Anyone know what's up with that? Thanks. mhr
