CentOS 5.3
by kmadananteshwar.vbhat＠gmail.com 06 Feb '09

06 Feb '09

Hey folks! Does any one have an idea as to when centOS 5.3 will be out and if so then I would like to hear from you coz I am waiting for it day and night coz I heard that the kernel of centos 5.3 will have inbuilt support for intel pro/wireless 3945 wifi card ( I have been trying to install the drivers desperately with no fruit ). And by the way does any body know how I can safely upgrade from centos 5.2 to 5.3 ( when it comes out that is ) without messing up the other partitions ( I have dual booted windows vista and centos 5.2 ) ( I use windows at office and I use centos at home ) and that too the method shouldn't cause any damage to the windows installation Yours KMB Sent from BlackBerry® on Airtel

Do an "lspci -v" and find the entry for your card reader. Then check to see if it is supported by the kernel (look in /boot/config-<kernelVersion>). If it is, I don't have an answer for you. If it isn't, check to see if it's supported by the current kernel from kernel.org. If it still isn't, it's not going to work until someone implements support for that particular card reader. If it is, you have the option of building and running a custom kernel using the source from kernel.org. There are lots of how-tos on how to make this happen. That's what I did on my laptop until support for my card reader got into the RHEL/CentOS kernel. Cheers, Dave -- Politics, n.

update for 5.3
by Jerry Geis 06 Feb '09

06 Feb '09

Hey its been over a week for updated 5.3 status... http://twitter.com/centos :) Not being silly, just got a couple motherboards sitting here collecting dust as 5.2 wont install on them. Hoping 5.3 will. with all the updated NIC drivers. By the way, KB, when I got married I had the understanding that I at least got a new computer every year! Got to set things straight from the beginning! Seriously, have a great wedding. Jerry

Yum update conflicts perl-Math-BigInt
by Dan Carl 06 Feb '09

06 Feb '09

I followed the Wiki instructions for setting up *yum-priorities*. I added the rpmforge repo I installed clamd without a problem. Now when I go to update I get conflicts with perl-Math-BigInt. Is the only solution to uninstall the base version and then install the rpmforge version? According the the wiki "Packages from repositories with a lower priority will never be used to upgrade packages that were installed from a repository with a higher priority." If this true why the conflicts? please advise Thanks Dan

Re: [CentOS] Emergency rescue help needed
by Brent L. Bates 06 Feb '09

06 Feb '09

Personally, I find this UPS exploding paranoia rather ridiculous. One person has one UPS burst into flames and everyone is yelling the sky is falling. We have no idea what conditions the UPS had been subjected to and to then jump to the conclusion that all UPS's are bombs waiting to explode is just insane. We've been using UPS's for years and years and the worst we've had are batteries that got swollen to the point we had to use a crowbar to get them out of the UPS. We then replaced the battery and had years more use out of the UPS. We've purchased used UPS's at government auctions, replaced the batteries, and had years of service out of them. All our UPS's are APC. We have and have used a wide range of sizes, from 250VA to 3000VA, Backup's to SmartUp's. I've used/tried other brands, but haven't been as satisfied with them. APC isn't perfect, they've made some stupid mistakes, but I've been more satisfied with them than the others we've tried. Brent L. Bates (UNIX Sys. Admin.) Phone:(757) 865-1400, x204 ViGYAN, Inc.

Security update missing - kernel-2.6.18-128.el5
by Milan Keršláger 06 Feb '09

06 Feb '09

Please, do not delay this "Important" multiple security update. See https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2009-0225.html for more info. This update is "5.3" kernel but has been released as security update too. RHN pushed this kernel one day ahead of rest of 5.3 packages (on my servers). RH maintains API and ABI (!) compatibility so there is no problem to use this kernel AFAIK. So please, do not delay it anymore, this contains multiple security vulnerabilities fixed since 2009-01-20. Thank you for your effort (a lot). M.K. -- Milan Keršláger http://www.pslib.cz/ke/ http://www.nti.tul.cz/wiki/Milan.Kerslager
