md5sum mismatch between CentOS 6.4 and 6.5 repository
by Ralf Aumüller 10 Dec '13

10 Dec '13

Hello, when I download python-slip-dbus-0.2.20-1.el6_2.noarch.rpm from CentOS 6.5 repository the md5sum is different than when I download same file from 6.4. wget http://msync.centos.org/centos-6/6.5/os/x86_64/Packages/ python-slip-dbus-0.2.20-1.el6_2.noarch.rpm -O python-slip-dbus-0.2.20-1.el6_2.noarch.rpm.65 wget http://msync.centos.org/centos-6/6.4/os/x86_64/Packages/ python-slip-dbus-0.2.20-1.el6_2.noarch.rpm -O python-slip-dbus-0.2.20-1.el6_2.noarch.rpm.64 ls -l ..... 30844 Mar 26 2012 python-slip-dbus-0.2.20-1.el6_2.noarch.rpm.64 ..... 30844 Mar 26 2012 python-slip-dbus-0.2.20-1.el6_2.noarch.rpm.65 md5sum python-slip-dbus-0.2.20-1.el6_2.noarch.rpm.* 20bb02e6f3b7b71e09dcaff7f3b0ca02 python-slip-dbus-0.2.20-1.el6_2.noarch.rpm.64 d37fe4404a7a5fdb27b29f9b5ed09c73 python-slip-dbus-0.2.20-1.el6_2.noarch.rpm.65 Any comments? Background: We have a local CentOS mirror and after updating to 6.5 the kickstart installation fails because of the wrong md5sum of python-slip-dbus. We mirror with rsync (no -c) and so we had the version from 6.4 in our 6.5 repository. (Same seams to be true for python-paste-script-1.7.3-5.el6_3.noarch.rpm and slf4j-javadoc-1.5.8-8.el6.noarch.rpm) Best regards, Ralf

compat-openmpi issues after upgrade to CentOS 6.5
by Tor Halsan 09 Dec '13

09 Dec '13

Just wondering if anyone can shed some light into an issue we are having with compat-openmpi after upgrading CentOS to version 6.5 Some of our cluster applications are dependent on an older version of OpenMPI, so we are using compat-openmpi. Up to CentOS 6.4 this was version 1.4.3: % /usr/lib64/compat-openmpi/bin/mpirun -V mpirun (Open MPI) 1.4.3 but after the upgrade to CentOS 6.5 it suddenly reports version 1.5.3: % /usr/lib64/compat-openmpi/bin/mpirun -V mpirun (Open MPI) 1.5.3 But rpm/yum still reports that version 1.4.3 is installed: % rpm -qv compat-openmpi compat-openmpi-1.4.3-1.1.el6.x86_64 Is this deliberate, or has someone erred? - Tor

making a script into a service
by Larry Martell 09 Dec '13

09 Dec '13

We have a python script that is currently run from cron. We want to make it into a service so it can be controlled with service start/stop/restart. Can anyone point me at site that has instructions on how to do this? I've googled but haven't found anything.

Build environment for totem-2.16.7-7.el5_6.1.src.rpm
by Michael Lampe 09 Dec '13

09 Dec '13

This package has a build requirement 'gecko-devel' which is fulfilled by 'xulrunner-devel'. But in the process of building the browser plugins two tools named 'xpidl' and 'xpt_link' are necessary. They werde once part of 'gecko-devel' but are now replaced by other tools. I haven't found any package that has these tools all the way back to 5.0. Maybe the makers of CentOS can give a hint. After all this package was build for C5. Thanks Michael

how to inject a kmod driver from elrepo into kickstart
by psavoie1783 07 Dec '13

07 Dec '13

Hi All, I have a marvel chipset for my wired laptop connection. It uses the kmod-sk98lin-10.93.3.3-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm driver at elrepo. I would like to use this driver to activate the wired connection to kickstart my laptop as I have pxe booting set upon my home network. Could anyone please enlighten me as to how to get the drivers/firmware from this package loaded on my laqptop so I can use kickstart to load the OS, please? Thank you for your time, Phil -- To err, is human To never grow up, is divine _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

DMAR Problem since 6.5
by Sebastian Marten 07 Dec '13

07 Dec '13

Hello List, I updated my server to CentOS 6.5. When i boot the system with the new kernel: 2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64 I get repeating the following message: dmar: DRHD: handling fault status reg 3 dmar: DMAR:[DMA Read] Request device [00:02.0] fault addr 1fc00000 DMAR:[fault reason 06] PTE Read access is not set I use a Intel Core i5-3550 CPU with vt-d enabled to use a DVB-S Card inside a Windows VM (kvm). With the old 6.4 Kernel all works (2.6.32-358.23.2.el6.x86_64) lscpi shows this: [...] 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v2/3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09) [...] Is this a problem with the intel driver or anything else? Regards, Sebastian Marten

Dragging app between workspaces not working
by Wes James 06 Dec '13

06 Dec '13

When I try to drag an app between workspaces, it doesn't move. I'm using compiz. When I put an arrow over an app in the workspace panel viewer (whatever that is called), it says click to start dragging, but no go. Any ideas? Thanks, -wes

Nux! Interesting point, something I didn't know. Fortunately in my case there are no db files involved directly, just db dumps wrapped in a tarball along with other associated stuff, sent from other servers. I would expect that lsync'ing db files could be a nasty non-stop process if the database is constantly being updated, so using db tools for replication would be best, configuring inotify/lsyncd to ignore the db directories. I believe by default that lsyncd instructs rsync to do whole-file transfers, so a large db could be a real problem. Thanks for the important heads-up!

Third-party SATA-RAID cards suggestions
by Sorin Srbu 06 Dec '13

06 Dec '13

Hi all, Would anybody care to suggest a third party SATA-RAID card that works out of the box with CentOS 6, without having to jump through hoops to make it work? The card should preferably be able to connect ten harddrives, but I guess three four-port cards should work as well. There's no need for anything fancy really, as long as I can create a single big software-raid on it at CentOS install-time. So far I've tried a Highpoint RocketRAID 2740 and a LSI 9201-16i without too much success.
