Latest kde/tetex updates fail on my attempts. Is it me or ...?
by William L. Maltby 22 Jan '06

22 Jan '06

Trying to apply the latest updates to an Athalon base fully updated CentOS 4.2. In the past used the update process kicked off by clicking the hand-dandy red icon. This failed, so I tried yum. Somewhere in the process, it complained that there was no GPG key for the lame libraries (IIRC, everything's a little hazy after all the Googling trying to fix this). Anyway, tried "yum update", same problem (I think). Tried importing some GPG keys that I thought were from CentOS, tried rm -rf on the cache, tried "yum clean headers" and "yum clean packages" (suspecting temporarily bad mirrors?), etc. Reread *in toto* the yum guide again, googled for hours, which has caused the observed hazing of the cornea and glazing of countenance. The rhn config file is out-of-box stock, but I've added the extras, kb and such to the repos directory. All this has worked in the past. Caveat: I manually installed mplayer on the system before I learned enough to realize it is available from the other repositories. I've not yet corrected the situation, which I suspect is the underlying cause of the 1st error regarding the GPG key for the lame libraries (which I could not resolve, btw). I have *not* googled for what I'm about to show, having given up for the week, except for this posting. Edited Yum output is shown below.

Bittorrent RPM/Python Issue
by Mark Sargent 22 Jan '06

22 Jan '06

Hi All, tried to install the RPM for bittorrent, and got the following, [root@localhost bittorrent]# rpm -Uvh BitTorrent-4.2.2-1-Python2.3.noarch.rpm error: Failed dependencies: python(abi) = 2.3 is needed by BitTorrent-4.2.2-1.noarch [root@localhost bittorrent]# python -V Python 2.3.4 why is this so, when I have 2.3.4. Is this RPM only compatible with 2.3, not 2.3.1-4? Little confused. Cheers. Mark Sargent.

by Andrew Rice 21 Jan '06

Hey all...just curious if anyone has ever run into any trouble using yum for updates.. anything at all? just curious. I use it all the time...finds the dependencies and never had any real issues. just curious how you would downgrade a package though if that option is even at all available or not. -- Andrew Rice Jr Systems Analyst Carrier Management Systems, Inc. 500 Chestnut Street, Suite 500 Abilene, TX 79602 USA support: (325) 672-0975 office: (325) 677-5900 fax: (325) 676-0529 http://www.nams.net NAMS III, NAMS 2000 Centralized, NAMS BMX

ps2 keybaord doesn't work

I just realized that the PS2 on our CentOS systems do not work (normally we use USB). Shouldn't they work by default?

Installation sequence for 4.2 / 3.6 dual boot
by Bruce McPeek 21 Jan '06

21 Jan '06

Hello, I have a Dell 1850 with dual Xeon procs and two u320 36Gb drives. I would like to set this up as dual boot system with 4.2 on disk 0 and 3.6 on disk 1. I imagine that I would install 4.2 first and then 3.6. Would I need to remove the other hard drive while installing a given version? Any gotchas? How about setting up GRUB? Anything special or does the install take care of it? Thanks, Bruce McPeek

I had to rename users to make the authentication key pair work and that messed up the permissions on the filesystem. The owner and group of the file still had the same name, but it referred to the previous 'incarnation' of the user. I wonder how to make this visible? How can you make ls show the UID and GID of a file instead of its name?

Website running slow and Timing Out, but at random...
by John Plemons 21 Jan '06

21 Jan '06

I have a site running the current version of Centos 4.2, it has a shopping cart running on it and runs slow and times out at random. The cart is a simple php package using a MySQL database backend. Can any one think of ways to improve the speed in MySQL and Apache, I've had the cart checked by the software vendor, it's working like it should, they are pointing to MySQL or Apache and a maybe... Thank you, John Plemons

proprietary SSH -> OpenSSH migration and rsync errors
by Salvatore Enrico Indiogine 21 Jan '06

21 Jan '06

Recently we switched from the proprietary version of ssh to the latest versions OpenSSH on RH7, 9 and CentOS4.2 When I run rsync over ssh, even sudo, I get permissions errors: sudo rsync -av --rsh=/usr/bin/ssh --delete <source dir> <user>@<server>:<dest dir> readlink groups/amatogroup/intranet/FoldingServerOO-dev/trash/foldingServer/Folding.NMA/CVS: Permission denied and opendir(groups/amatogroup/research/shepherding/single/RCS): Permission denied Any idea? I did a lot of googling, but nothing that looked useful to me. Thanks! -- Enrico Indiogine Parasol Laboratory Texas A&M University enricoi(a)cs.tamu.edu hindiogine(a)gmail.com 979-845-3937

In my case it fixed our dual processor systems (Dell PE2650) but to be honest I was never quite sure if it was an OS patch or HT'ing. I just disable HT'ing, build and they just work, I have not seen this problem for a while now. Dean
