Yum update without internet connection
by Steve Campbell 19 Nov '12

19 Nov '12

I usually use a "Desktop" option when installing a new machine. This gives me all I need for an X session and then I add other packages or grouplists on an as-needed basis. I'm putting together a couple of machines that will not have network connectivity until all packages are installed. Is there a way to run yum to install packages/groups from the installation disk instead of from one of the normal yum repositories? If so, is there a ever a problem with packages on the second disk of the 2 disk installation DVDs? Thanks, steve campbell

lshw on a newer Dell
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 16 Nov '12

16 Nov '12

Odd thing: I just installed and tried to run lshw on a Dell R415 running 5.8. It goes through the subsystems it's scanning, hits IDE, and that's it - it just sits there. I've waited minutes. Anyone else seen this? mark

Raid 5 Q
by Phil Savoie 16 Nov '12

16 Nov '12

I have a raid 5 built on an opensuse box that I just reinstalled Centos 6.3 on. Is it possible to rebuild the raid 5 array non-destructively? I have googled on this and have found using mdadm --scan --assemble <list of fd devices>. Will this do it? I sure wouldn't want to lose my data on the array if possible. thank you, Phil

One screen disabled on login with NVIDIA TwinView
by Toralf Lund 16 Nov '12

16 Nov '12

Hi Is anyone here using NVIDIA display drivers and a TwinView configuration on their systems? I've got a bit of an issue with such a setup, which started occurring after a recent driver update: I have a laptop that's normally connected to an external monitor (a Samsung SyncMaster), where this monitor and the built-in display on the laptop are set up with a TwinView configuration. The external monitor is set to be the primary display via NVIDIA X Server Settings. Now, when X11 starts, both monitors seem to be enabled, based on the fact that the NVIDIA logo is displayed across both screens. The login screen then appears on the external monitor, just as I expect when it's set to primary display. But, when I actually log in, the display goes black, and the NVIDIA X Server Settings (which I open on the laptop display) report the following config: Selection: Samsung SyncMaster (DFP-1) Configuration: TwinView Resolution: Off I can easily re-enable the monitor by changing resolution to Auto or one of the listed dimensions, but having to do this every time I log in is a bit annoying. Does anyone else see this? Do you know if there is a way around it? This is on CentOS 5.8. Driver version is currently 304.60 - but I've also updated it a couple of times after this problem started occurring.
