bizzare performance problem
by Mag Gam 12 May '11

12 May '11

I had a rather strange problem last week with one of our 8 core servers. The users complained the performance was "slow" so I checked the basic things, processes on top, vmstat for memory and context switching, i/o stats for internal disk I/O, netstat for any network issues and other things like network through put by copying a large file (1gb file across the network). It turned out I had an NMI related issue on the processor. I figured this out by checking the /var/log/messages but it was a real mystery for be at first. My question, is there a way to detect or benchmark a system and all of its processors to make sure I don't bypass this type of error again? I am not necessary looking for monitoring tools but more of techniques like, run a while loop on all processors/cores to make sure they all give a constant time? TIA

iptables to block region-specific ip's?
by David Mehler 11 May '11

11 May '11

Hello, I'm running fail2ban on my centos machine. It's handling sshd and postfix, and is working quite well. From the reports I'm seeing all the atempts are from a certain registrar's region, I won't name it, and was wondering instead of blocking individual ip's if there was a way I could block with iptables the complete region of ip's. I realize this will cut off a good majority of the world, but this is something i'm still curious about? With regards blocking ip's and fail2ban, which method is better in terms of system resources, blocking via iptables as in the case of sshd or blocking via hosts.deny as in the case of postfix? Thanks. Dave.

No sound on HP 8540w, guidance requested
by David 11 May '11

11 May '11

Dear Experts I have been unsuccessful getting the sound to work on a HP Mobile Workstation HP 8540w. Here's a brief rundown of where I am I did a clean new install of Centos 5.6 from DVD, using the Gnome Desktop option and no optional modules. I enabled the firewall, but disabled SELINUX. I installed three files from elrepo to make the wireless adaptor work, and specified the video adaptor using the Gnome -> System -> Preferences -> Display panel. I ran "yum update" until all updates were completed, rebooted system because the Kernel changed. The system now works -- all of the following appear to function properly: - USB connections - wireless - ethernet - pointer-stick for the mouse - the display at its "natural" resolution (1920x1200) - An occassional beep does occur, proving that the PC speaker is connected. However, I when I play any sound or movie file, I get no sound. I know that the PC speaker produces low quality sound, but there should be something. I have experimented with the "Sound" setup, but none of the options seem to produce good results. Is there some special driver or option I need? Any assistance or direction would be appreciated. David

Drive recovery?
by Ashley M. Kirchner 11 May '11

11 May '11

I have a CentOS 5.6 system (recently installed) that, for some reason, has decided to mangle one of its drives, specifically /dev/hde1 ... No errors anywhere, just rebooted the machine over the weekend and it's gone. Up till the reboot, the drive was fine, I was writing to it without a problem. fdisk tells me: ---------- # fdisk -l /dev/hde Disk /dev/hde: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes 240 heads, 63 sectors/track, 20673 cylinders Units = cylinders of 15120 * 512 = 7741440 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hde1 * 1 20673 156287848+ 83 Linux ---------- There are no hardware errors in the boot log (dmesg). The only error is that it can't find the ext3 fs that was on that drive. Unfortunately, it's not a drive I can simply reformat and call it a day. There's data on it I need. When I try to mount it, I get: hfs: unable to find HFS+ superblock. Obviously that's not right as the drive was formatted as an ext3. So if I force it, I get this: ---------- mount -t ext3 /dev/hde1 /mnt/hde1 mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hde1, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so ---------- So, is this just an indication that the partition table is hosed? Is there anything, any tool, any way of reading the data off of this drive and put it elsewhere?

Changing default paper size to A4 on CentOS 5 (Kyocera FS1920 printer)
by Mathieu Baudier 10 May '11

10 May '11

Hello, I have a Kyocera FS1920 network printer, and I run an up-to-date CentOS 5.6 x86_64 workstation. When I try to print with evince or Firefox the default paper size is always set to US Letter whereas the printer use A4. I have searched and other people seem to have the problem, but the only recommendations that I have found boil down to setting the default paper size to A4 in the CUPS printer settings. I had done that already and double-checked via the Printer config UI or the CUPS web interface (http://localhost:631) but to no avail. What is a bit weird is that I do not remember having such problems with my previous printer (an Epson Stylus RX500). I would be grateful for any hint / idea. Cheers, Mathieu
