Re: [CentOS] openoffice.org2.3 in CentOS5.3
by Ritika Garg 16 Oct '10

16 Oct '10

I want to update the system because I haven't updated CentOS5.3 from the time when I installed it. But I am also afraid of directly using "yum update" command. I used "yum list updates" but theres a error displayed which I have already posted.

16 Oct '10

Hi folks I just installed Centos 5.5. I heard about the new changes in wifi support. I tried a USB wifi card from Netgear, and It works fine. It didn't en Centos 5.4, so that's great news. The problem is I have a Linksys WUSB54GC USB wifi card and I want to make it work. I get this messages in /var/log/messages as soon as I plug it in.

And with 6 coming soon, I was thinking, though I haven't gone to look, that they'd have 3.1 or 4.x.

network interface question
by Paras pradhan 15 Oct '10

15 Oct '10

Hi, I don't have ifcfg-eth1 in my /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts. But when I do ifconfig eth1 I can see output as below. If I do ifconfig eth12 , I don't see anything which i am assume is normal. eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:24:E8:44:DB:CC BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) Interrupt:17 Memory:e8000000-e8012800 Don't know why and how this is happening. Thanks! Paras.

For burning the image on DVD I found 2 iso files: CentOS-5.5-x86_64-bin-DVD-1of2.iso CentOS-5.5-x86_64-bin-DVD-2of2.iso I found out that the first one is 4.1GB and the second one is 412MB. Do I have to burn the first one on 1 DVD and the second one on another DVD?

Routing local generted packets with fwmark
by C. L. Martinez 15 Oct '10

15 Oct '10

Hi all, I need to route local generated packages depending on which tcp or udp service I need to use. To accomplish this I have configured two routing tables: [root@lothlorien ~]# ip ru ls 0: from all lookup 255 32762: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup FirstLan 32763: from all fwmark 0x1 lookup SecondLan 32764: from 172.25.80.10 lookup SecondLan 32765: from 172.25.70.18 lookup FirstLan 32766: from all lookup main 32767: from all lookup default My routing tables: [root@lothlorien net]# ip ro show table FirstLan 172.25.70.16/28 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 172.25.70.18 default via 172.25.70.30 dev eth1 [root@lothlorien net]# ip ro show table SecondLan 172.25.80.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 172.25.80.10 default via 172.25.80.1 dev eth2 And my iptables rule is: iptables -t mangle -A OUTPUT -p udp --dport 53 -j MARK --set-mark 1 But this doesn't works. This host is CentOS 5.5 based with two interfaces. What am I doing wrong?? Thanks.

grep pattern x, but not pattern y on the same line
by Sven Aluoor 15 Oct '10

15 Oct '10

Hi folks I have the command "find . | xargs grep 'mailx'", to search all files with "mailx" in contents. I wish to add a second condition that NOT contains string sven.aluoor(a)ubs.com on the same line. Every file which contains "mailx", but not the string sven.aluoor(a)ubs.com in the same line. cheers Sven

aac and tag editing
by Rob Kampen 15 Oct '10

15 Oct '10

As my iphone will not play nice with open source audio formats I'm forced to use aac. I have faac and produce .aac files that seems to play fine with Amarok but no tags. I usually use Easytag (from rpmforge) to deal with metadata on audio files, but despite the advertised ability to do mp4/aac it does not even show the files...... Anyone have any experience or pointers as to how I get the metadata sorted on these files? TIA Rob

Can't remember if I asked this last month, but has anyone seen ECC errors where mcelog gave no o/p at all, even when the errors showed in /var/log/messages? mark
