Swap space and hibernation on Centos 7
by H 06 Oct '18

06 Oct '18

I just reinstalled Centos 7 on my Dell Inspiron 15 7570. This time I created a swap partitition that is 24 Gb in size since the machine has 16 Gb of memory. Still unable to hibernate with 'systemctl hibernate' which generates a message that a 'dependency on hibernate.target failed'. Typing swapon -s or cat /proc/swaps I see: /dev/dm-2 partititon 25161724 0 -1 free -m gives me: ... Swap 24571 0 24571 What am I missing? Suggestions what to check are appreciated.

Copy to smb share fails with "invalid argument" on CentOS 7
by Toralf Lund 04 Oct '18

04 Oct '18

Hi, I've had problems copying files to Windows shares from my CentOS 7 machine lately. I originally got this in the desktop file manager, but find that I can also reproduce using gvfs-copy. "cp" to the directory mounted by gvfs works just fine, on the other hand. Also, the problem does not occur with small files - I think anything below 64k is OK. The following command sequence should illustrate the problem (note that some of the names have been changed): [toralf@osl-97214 ~]$ dd if=/dev/zero of=tst.zero bs=65537 count=1 1+0 records in 1+0 records out 65537 bytes (66 kB) copied, 0.000919358 s, 71.3 MB/s [toralf@osl-97214 ~]$ gvfs-copy tst.zero "smb://pgs.com;toralf.lund@ourserver/theshare/" Error copying file tst.zero: Invalid argument [toralf@osl-97214 ~]$ cp tst.zero /run/user/1234/gvfs/smb-share:domain=pgs.com,server=ourserver,share=theshare,user=toralf.lund/ I actually get numerous references to similar issues when I search the web, including https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=%22invalid%20argument%2… - but they seem to indicate that the cause was a samba issue that was resolved some time in during version 3 release cycle, and I have samba-4.7.1-9. Also, I never actually had problems like this with samba 3. Has anyone else seen this? Is there a way around it? Thanks. - Toralf

Trouble installing with Nvidia card
by Elliott Balsley 04 Oct '18

04 Oct '18

Hi all, I'm having trouble doing a fresh install of CentOS 7.3. I'm using the DVD installer ISO, burned to a USB flash drive. The system is a Supermicro 7048 with four Nvidia Titan Xp GPUs, and I have the monitor connected to the first GPU. In the BIOS, VGA priority is set to Offboard, so I am seeing POST messages (good). The CentOS installer begins and shows a few messages on my monitor, but it stops after "Reached target Basic System" ok. At this point, if I connect a second monitor to the motherboard VGA port, then I see the installer continuing on that screen. Is there some way to install without using a VGA monitor? Thanks in advance.

Centos7/Kde4 freeze
by Patrick Begou 03 Oct '18

03 Oct '18

Hi I have a fresh install of centos 7.4 with KDE on a laptop (latitude 5590) connected to a DELL WD15 dockstation with an additionnal screen. It works quite well, I have 2 screens side by side (default config), but.... If I add a second menu bar for the screen connected to the dockstation (KDE allow for this) it is not possible anymore to start a kde session if the laptop is not connected to the dock station (eg: at home), kde freeze and never show any menubar. I have to use gnome to login and remove the .kde directory. Is there a way to avoid this ?

Unknown NFSv4 ACL permission
by Paul Heinlein 03 Oct '18

03 Oct '18

Our new-to-us Isilon is handling NFSv4 ACLs differently than other NFS file servers we've had. In particular, something causes an 'O' to pop up in the permission field, but I cannot find any documentation of it. For example, [Linux]$ nfs4_getfacl TODO A::OWNER@:tTcCy A::GROUP@:tcy A::EVERYONE@:rwaxtTnNcy A:O:OWNER@:rwadxtTnNcCoy A:gO:admins@madboa.com:rwadxtTnNcy A:gO:readonly@madboa:rxtnc A:O:EVERYONE@:tncy I'll note that when those 'O' perms get added, our OmniOS (Solaris-alike) hosts cannot read the ACLs: [SunOS]$ ls -v TODO ls: can't read ACL on TODO: Invalid argument -rwxrwx--- 1 heinlein wheel 2488 Oct 2 15:13 TODO If, on the Linux side, I run nfs4_editfacl and do nothing but remove the 'O' permission symbols, then things clear up. Has anyone here seen anything like this? My google-fu has failed. -- Paul Heinlein heinlein(a)madboa.com 45°38' N, 122°6' W
