intel dual core processors and new kernel packages
by Aleksandar Milivojevic 08 Oct '05

08 Oct '05

I've just got bunch of RHEL4 erratas (looks like U2 is out). Looking at the kernel errata (kernel-2.6.9-22.EL), one of the things in list of new features is "Intel dual core support". What does this exactly means? Does it mean if I have dual core pentium processor and use older kernel that it will use only one core, and I need newer kernel to use both cores? Or is it only something cosmetical (like updated output for /proc/cpuinfo)? Looking at the bug 167412, it looks more like the later. Anybody outthere running Pentium D or Pentium extreme with 2.6.9-11.EL? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.

KDE-3.5 beta1
by Mark Weaver 08 Oct '05

08 Oct '05

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has attempted to compile the tarballs for kde 3.5 beta 1 yet. I started mucking about with them on my CentOS 4.1 box, but none of them want to compile. They'll configure ok, but when I run the make command I just get a lot of errors. what I'd like to do is compile and install them in /opt so that I could run this version to test it without distrupting my current installation of KDE. (kde 3.4) which leads me to another question... which package to compile and install first? kde-base? -- Mark ----------------------------------------------------------- Paid for by Penguins against modern appliances(R) Linux User Since 1996 Powered by RHEL 4

dependency conflict on vixie-cron update
by bryan davis 07 Oct '05

07 Oct '05

I'm having a problem with the new vixie-cron rpm for CentOS 4.1 when updating via yum. It complains with the message: Error: Missing Dependency: pam >= 0.77-66.8 is needed by package vixie-cron I got this error from calling 'yum update' on a clean install from the 4.1 isos. This version of pam is available in the 4.2 beta repository, but not the 4.1 repository. Did something from 4.2 sneak into the 4.1 updates?

shadow-utils problem
by Matt Lawrence 07 Oct '05

07 Oct '05

In an effort to discover some of the details in /etc/shadow, I have downloaded and rebuilt the SRPM. It seems to be missing a dependency of gcc-c++. After installing that, the build went fine. Also, does anyone have a pointer to detailed information about /etc/shadow? The man page is many years out of date and is now a bit incorrect.

It's kind of must have design feature where hercules does pass the floating point operations to host fp unit directly. It would slow down ten fold or more if it would not do so. This efectively means that for some packages the test phase fails under hercules even tho it's not failing on real iron. I've had access to real iron (not currently) and been able to verify that very same compilers + other parts makes testing work on real iron and fail under hercules. Resulting binaries still being good on oth platforms. Therefore i just have to trust that binaris are ok even tho the internal test procedures are failing. This is the case for s390 with mysql. s390x compiles + tests just fine. I start to make a note in these announcements if i have been forced to skip the package internal testing phase for being able to make binary RPMS. Something like there is below for s390. It's just in case somene should rely on this distribution on real iron as i am not able to verify/support this scenario. With hercules we're all in same wagon - if it's not working, it's fixable for us :) s390: (had to disable check/test) updates/s390/RPMS/mysql-4.1.12-3.RHEL4.1.s390.rpm updates/s390/RPMS/mysql-bench-4.1.12-3.RHEL4.1.s390.rpm updates/s390/RPMS/mysql-devel-4.1.12-3.RHEL4.1.s390.rpm updates/s390/RPMS/mysql-server-4.1.12-3.RHEL4.1.s390.rpm s390x: updates/s390x/RPMS/mysql-4.1.12-3.RHEL4.1.s390x.rpm updates/s390x/RPMS/mysql-bench-4.1.12-3.RHEL4.1.s390x.rpm updates/s390x/RPMS/mysql-devel-4.1.12-3.RHEL4.1.s390x.rpm updates/s390x/RPMS/mysql-server-4.1.12-3.RHEL4.1.s390x.rpm -- Pasi Pirhonen - upi(a)iki.fi - http://iki.fi/upi/

WhiteBox 4 -> CentOS4.1 - Yum
by Tom Brown 07 Oct '05

07 Oct '05

Hi Is it possible to swap the yum.conf from my centos box onto my whitebox box and have the whitebox machine use centos updates through yum? CentOS seems further ahead and far quicker at roll outs than whitebox? thanks

Hi all, this is an off topic suggestion request. I am looking for a very simple tool to basically manage employee datas, personal information as well as their contracts, holidays etc. I have been looking on sourceforge and googling, thinking something would come out but had no luck. Before I start anything myself, is there anyone that can suggest a preferibly LAMP free open source application? Thanks, have a nice day

Hello List, It seems whenever I try to download something via Firefox (which is saved by default to the GNOME desktop), I would still need to press Ctrl-R (Refresh) to make the new item show up. Anybody here know why this is so? Is there any tweak that I can do to make new items display automatically? Any help would be apprecidated. Best regards, Matt -- Stand before it and there is no beginning. Follow it and there is no end. Stay with the ancient Tao, Move with the present.
