permanent ulimit -n on CentOS 3.4
by Mike Obvious 25 Feb '05

25 Feb '05

Hi! Question from the novice. I have to permanently increase number of opened files ( ulimit -n 16384 and ulimit -Hn 16384) for some application. I did custom kernel based on https://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-3-Manual/sysadmin-guide… and application documentation ( written for RH 9), no error during all makes but I have panic during the boot. ( It's Dell SC1425, dual CPU, 2GB RAM, i686-based kernel). Is there any other way to do it ? Thanks, Michael

A valid question. I would say to both. It would be minimal traffic to add to this list and may catch folks that didn't think they needed to subscribe to the announce list. -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)caosity.org [mailto:centos-bounces@caosity.org] On Behalf Of John Hinton Sent: Thursday, February 24, 2005 9:13 PM To: CentOS discussion and information list Subject: Re: [Centos] Re: centos-announce list? OK.. after all the stink about creating an announce list.... :) (yes, I was for it, too) So, now the next logical question. Will announements be made 'only' to the announce lists or will they be made to this list as well? I'm sorry, but I'm finding myself about to fall out of my chair laughing at all of this. Such a good group and we get in a stink over an announce list.. too funny.

4.0_rc1 new install fails to enable mixer devices
by Collins Richey 25 Feb '05

25 Feb '05

I've just installed 4.0_rc1 to evaluate and compare with FC3 for a local project. The installation and initial usage of the two distros is almost identical. up2date and yum work well on either. The one problem I have is with sound. CentOS has loaded snd_intel8x0 and all the usual suspects, but the mixers (GNOME volume controls, etc., do not work because there is no /dev/xxx for the mixer device. FC3 did not have this problem, and sound worked AOK, or at least as good as it gets for my miserable builtin card. I might note that I had a similar problem on gentoo (which also uses udev), and I have to preload some of the alsa modules or I get the same results. Does anyone have experience with this on CentOS? I haven't done a comparison of the alias files, etc., between CentOS and FC3. Is there a way to preload modules on CentOS prior to udev/hotplug action? TIA, -- Collins

I might be misunderstanding the issue, but when I run the command xlsfonts | grep lucidatype | grep 8859-1 as listed in the Fedora Core 3 bug report on a CentOS4RC1 machine I've had running for a few days, I see -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-10-100-75-75-m-60-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-11-80-100-100-m-70-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-14-100-100-100-m-80-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-14-140-75-75-m-90-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-17-120-100-100-m-100-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-18-180-75-75-m-110-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-19-190-75-75-m-110-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-20-140-100-100-m-120-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-24-240-75-75-m-140-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-25-180-100-100-m-150-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-26-190-100-100-m-159-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-34-240-100-100-m-200-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-8-80-75-75-m-50-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-10-100-75-75-m-60-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-11-80-100-100-m-70-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-14-100-100-100-m-80-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-14-140-75-75-m-90-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-17-120-100-100-m-100-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-18-180-75-75-m-110-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-19-190-75-75-m-110-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-20-140-100-100-m-120-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-24-240-75-75-m-140-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-25-180-100-100-m-150-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-26-190-100-100-m-159-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-34-240-100-100-m-200-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-8-80-75-75-m-50-iso8859-1 I have the following font packages installed on this machine (it's a fairly basic install): # rpm -qa 'fonts*' fonts-xorg-base-6.8.1-1 fonts-xorg-100dpi-6.8.1-1 fonts-xorg-75dpi-6.8.1-1 I can also choose Lucida Typewriter as a font for Firefox with the ISO-8859-1 encoding, and it works. And I can find Lucida Typewriter with that encoding in xfontsel.

RE: [Centos] centos-announce list?
by Bob Pierce 24 Feb '05

I'm also looking forward to having an announce list! I believe that as a serious, professional distro this is a necessity. -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)caosity.org [mailto:centos-bounces@caosity.org] On Behalf Of Matt Bottrell Sent: Thursday, February 24, 2005 5:46 AM To: CentOS discussion and information list Subject: Re: [Centos] centos-announce list? I'd like to add my weight behind an accounce list. :) It stops the 'when will..' questions (well lessons them at least.) ;) Its also a good way to see all announcements (esp. if you file them in an individual folder), making it much easier to find.

Migration
by Roger Jochem 24 Feb '05

24 Feb '05

Hello all! I'm new to the list. I just upgraded 3 White Box Linux servers (database, application and internet) yesterday to Centos 3.4 using the info in http://centos.org/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?faqid=19. Very easy, and that was a very helpfull document! The decision was based in the speed of updates, really much faster in Centos! Is there a similar way to upgrade a Fedora Core 1 server to Centos 3.4? Would it be possible? I saw some messages in the list about it (archives) but I don't know if in the time the version of Centos was 3.4, and some people said that it whas not possible because would be a downgrade of some packages... Regards Roger Jochem
