VLC and playing .mkv files with opus audio
by Rob Kampen 01 Aug '16

01 Aug '16

Hi list, I use VLC from nux-dextop as my default player. Recently began using youtube-dl and it grabs the video and audio just fine and produces .mkv files. I can play the resulting file just fine with Enqueue in SMPlayer, GXine, SMPlayer and Videos - VLC unfortunately says 'VLC could not decode the format "Opus"' Yet my google search indicates this issue was solved many releases ago - 2.0.4 and CentOS 7 is at version 2.2.2-4.el7 Anyone else have this problem and/or ideas on how to get it going? TIA Rob

Hi, For software development, projects are built through makefile. After building, I can run binary program. rpm is more convenient. Is there some tool that can build rpm? Thanks! Regards Andrew

CentOS 6.7->6.8, ssh-add issue
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 28 Jul '16

28 Jul '16

Folks, I am perplexed. I updated my workstation at work Wed before I left, from 6.7 to 6.8. Then, yesterday, I went to use ssh-add -s libcoolkeypk11.so, which I've done many times before to add the certs from my PIV card... and 100% of the time if fails, letting me SSH_AGENT_FAILURE, cannot add card. Now, using a script called sccr, which uses my public and private key to generate a one-time password (we use the to sudo to root), works with no problem. I used my card to go into the data center this morning, which also reads my card, and had no problem. I've tried eval $(ssh-agent) to start a new instance. Nothing works. Also, pklogin-finder finds the cards, asks for my PIN< and it works. Clues for the poor? mark

SAS drive not showing [SOLVED]
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 28 Jul '16

28 Jul '16

*Finally* found the answer. The case was, if you'll recall, that I had replaced a pair of older, smaller drives with a couple of 8TB SATA drives, and made it RAID1 using the PERC firmware. I was then going to wipe the drive. First, the old ones turned out to be SAS, no SATA. I had tried shoving it into a similar Dell, which I regularly use for shoving SATA drives in, and copying over the network, then putting them (larger drives) in place of the ones they were replacing on other servers. This just wouldn't show as /dev/sdx, the way the SATA did. The solution: a script I found on the 'Net lsi.sh, which depends on you having MegaRaid on the box, shows the four drives, but that one was listed as "unconfigured good". What I needed to do was use MegaCLI64 to first display foreign configurations... and regardless of the other three SATA drives, did show only one, and that was from this SAS drive. I then did a clear foreign configuration. After that, I could use PDMakeJBOD, and all is wonderful. mark

LXC containers - systemd takes a long time to start
by Anthony K 28 Jul '16

28 Jul '16

I've got a CentOS7 server (fully patched) and in it I'm running several LXC containers. I've noticed that whenever I try to launch a service via `systemctl start <service_name>` soon after LXC boot, it will take ~5 minutes before the prompt returns. After that initial delay, starting/stopping/restarting services happens immediately. It might be that this happens because the server is running a large number of (>20) containers. On next reboot, I'll see if it has the same problem when I have just one container. In the meantime, anyone else seen similar behavior?

I was starting my Thunderbird via a script and I thought I would post that the name of the desktop file has changed to help anyone else who was running the desktop file from a script. Old path was: /usr/share/applications/mozilla-thunderbird.desktop New Path is: /usr/share/applications/thunderbird.desktop Thanks, Johnny Hughes

Mounting NFS subdirectories individually or just the parent?
by Frank Thommen 27 Jul '16

27 Jul '16

Hello, does it in any respect (throughput/performance, cpu load, I/O load, resilience, ...) matter, if one mounts subdirectories of an NFS (v3) export into separate directories or if one just mounts the parent directory? I.e. like this: server:/export/base/a -> /mnt/a server:/export/base/b -> /mnt/b server:/export/base/c -> /mnt/c server:/export/base/d -> /mnt/d server:/export/base/e -> /mnt/e or simply like this: server:/export/base -> /mnt I would guess, that it doesn matter at all, but at $work the standard setup on all cluster nodes is, to mount >20 subdirectories from the NFS server individually and the justification is, that is more performant and reliable. Can this be confirmed (or denied)? I couldn't find this method of "NFS performance tuning" mentioned anywhere and from a management perspective the sheer amount of mounted filesystems makes the list confusing and harder to troubleshoot. Any thoughts? Regards frank
