Slightly OT: PCIe x16 card in x8 slot
by Glenn Eychaner 22 Aug '13

22 Aug '13

So, in the ongoing saga of the unusual 1U short-depth workstation, we have narrowed the field to two choices. Both entrants are configured with 16GB memory (4x4GB), two 2.5" drives (1x250GB SSD and 1x1TB HDD), and an NVIDIA NVS510 graphic card (quad display): 1) SuperMicro 5017R-MF, Xeon E5-2609 processor 2) SuperMicro 5017C-LF, Xeon E3-1220 processor (I wish SuperMicro had a list of their servers by chassis somewhere.) I have no preference between the solutions for right now, though I have a major concern with the second solution; the PCIe slot is only x8, and the NVS510 is a x16 card. The vendor assures me that a riser/adapter can be found to plug the card into the slot, and that it will work, but I am highly concerned about the performance. I know nothing about PCIe (I haven't built a system in 10 years, though I have read the PCIe Wikipedia entries and some guides); what kind of performance hit can I expect? Also, are there any solutions I have overlooked? Thanks again, -G. -- Glenn Eychaner (geychaner(a)lco.cl) Telescope Systems Programmer, Las Campanas Observatory

Re: [CentOS] k3b -> cddb doesn't work
by Lamar Owen 22 Aug '13

http://www.city-fan.org/ftp/contrib/yum-repo/ is the city-fan.org repo master; you will likely want to us the University of Seville mirror at http://nervion.us.es/city-fan/yum-repo/ . Do note that installing these packages will replace what could be considered core portions of the system; you're on your own as far as support is concerned, in other words. I did not check if the version of cdrtools there is the absolute latest; it wasn't when I first found this repo, which is why I rebuilt from the source RPM (using the latest cdrtools upstream source and slightly modified city-fan spec file; city-fan updated not long afterwards, and this package has been recently updated, as recently as this month). k3b and other tools can use this package just fine; while there are some neat features that k3b and other GUI frontends don't expose, that's ok for most purposes. You can add your own command line parameters in the k3b setup. But the EL6 version of k3b is quite old at this point. YMMV, you break it you keep the pieces, etc.

Problem with DHCP and default route in CentOS
by Joshua J. Kugler 21 Aug '13

21 Aug '13

I have a CentOS 6.4 VM that is getting its DHCP information from dnsmasq (a libvirt instance). However, it is not applying the routing information. Attached is a tcpdump of the dhcpc output. You'll see: Default-Gateway Option 3, length 4: 192.168.122.1 However, when I run 'route -n', I get: # route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.122.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1002 0 0 eth0 Any ideas as to why the default route/gateway information isn't being applied? j -- Joshua J.

More browsers!

I'm running CentOS 6 on one machine, plus my wife's. She's OK with it, but every time I use it, I miss the glorious plethora of browsers that Fedora has gotten me used to. I have epel and rpmfusion (both free and unfree) enabled; is there some other repo I can safely add? -- Beartooth Implacable, Curmudgeonly Codger Learning Linux On the Internet, you can never tell who is a dog -- supposing you care -- but you can tell who has a mind.

I don’t understand server behavior (where no configuration procmail files exist) when MTA receives email message to delivery to mailbox which stays on the same server.
