CentOS 8 VM 800x600
by Jerry Geis 18 Mar '20

18 Mar '20

Hi all, I am trying again to get video higher that 800x600 on CentOS 8 VM guest. I re-installed the image, I installed spice-vdagent, I tried setting QXL and VGA both - so far everything is always 800x600. What is the trick ? I am using virt-manager. Jerry

signing modules
by Jerry Geis 17 Mar '20

17 Mar '20

Is there an "easy" way to just sign all kernel modules in the /lib/modules directory ? I'm getting an error about a module not being signed so not loading. CentOS 7.7 UEFI booting. (I cannot remove UEFI as hardware does not allow it). Thanks, Jerry

Xorg on CentOS
by Jerry Geis 17 Mar '20

17 Mar '20

I am trying to find a way to tell the ORDER of X drivers. I have a VM image of CentOS 7. If I boot the image I want the generic driver to load. But if I put that image on hardware I want the Intel driver to load. So if I specific the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf and specify Intel - this is great for the physical device. But booting my image it fails cause there is not Intel hardware. How can have ONE X config that specifies Intel first and if not present load generic VGA stuff. Thanks, Jerry

tuned on CentOS 6.9
by Chris Card 17 Mar '20

17 Mar '20

Does tuned on CentOS 6.9 (i.e. tuned-0.2.19-18.el6.noarch) do any dynamic tuning, or does it only support static configuration via a static profile? Chris

CentOS rpm versioning
by koka miptpatriot 16 Mar '20

16 Mar '20

Hello Clair vulnerability scanner considers the latest version of CentOS mariadb vulnerable, because of RHSA-2019:3708 It states, that mariadb must be updated at least to the version "10.3.17-1.module+el8.1.0+3974+90eded84". CentOS' last version is "10.3.17-1.module_el8.1.0+257+48736ea6". Rpm/yum considers CentOS' version older, than RHEL's. % rpmdev-vercmp 3:10.3.17-1.module_el8.1.0+257+48736ea6 3:10.3.17-1.module+ el8.1.0+3974+90eded84 3:10.3.17-1.module_el8.1.0+257+48736ea6 < 3:10.3.17-1.module+el8.1.0+3974+ 90eded84 That's why Clair considers it's vulnerable. Is there any way to fix it? -- skype: miptpatriot

Slightly OT : where is Cipherli.st ?
by Nicolas Kovacs 16 Mar '20

16 Mar '20

Hi, Up until recently, I've been using the excellent https://cipherli.st resource to configure SSL on my servers. I tried to take a look again today, but the site seems to have vanished. Anybody knows what's happened ? Has it moved ?

EPEL Package update?
by Chris Boyd 15 Mar '20

15 Mar '20

We run RANCID at the day job to back up switch and router configs. Version 3.11 adds some support for devices we need. The current EPEL version is 3.9. I filed a request at Fedora to get it updated, which they have completed (version 3.11), but it still hasn't made it into the EPEL for CentOS. What's the right place/process to get the update into EPEL for CentOS? All pointers appreciated. --Chris

Software gone AWOL...
by Robert Heller 12 Mar '20

12 Mar '20

I am moving from a CentOS 6 VM to a CentOS 7 VM and two pieces of software I use seem to be missing: RT (from Best Practical Solutions) -- an RPM for rt 3.1.13 was in EPel 6 and until recently, was also in EPel 7. It is not there now. Since it is just Perl code, I wonder if I can just install the el6 rpm on a CentOS 7 system. Bugzilla -- I installed this from an RPM on my CentOS 6 server (bugzilla-3.4.14-2.el6.noarch). It is not in the EPel 7. It too is noarch (also Perl code) and wonder if I can just install the el6 rpm (if I can find it somewhere -- a yum search bugzill finds it, but it is not actually there in the repo. Are there other solutions? (Installing RT "from source" is something of a bear, since there are lots of Perl module dependencies, that I would rather yum deal with if possible.) -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 Cell: 413-658-7953 GV: 978-633-5364 Deepwoods Software -- Custom Software Services http://www.deepsoft.com/ -- Linux Administration Services heller(a)deepsoft.com -- Webhosting Services
