qemu-kvm-rhev
by Sander Grendelman 11 Nov '13

11 Nov '13

I recently ran into some problems using certain oVirt (3.3) features on CentOS 6.4 hosts. The solution was to use the qemu-kvm-rhev version from the EL6 RHEV repository: http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/6Server/en/RHEV/SRPMS/qem… It seems that this tree is not carried/built by CentOS. Are there any plans on the CentOS for carrying these packages? Some background information: - http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2013-November/017652.html - http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2013-November/017722.html Best regards, Sander

XML to text
by Steve Campbell 11 Nov '13

Is there anything offered in Centos that might convert an XML file to a plain text file? My hopes are that it is flexible enough to make the following type of line: <title>Guide</title> into something like: title: Guide along with all the other fields. It'd be nice if it could handle multiple lines inside a single tag line as well. thanks steve campbell

Certain fonts missing from xlsfonts in Centos 6.4
by Çağrı Gürleyük 11 Nov '13

11 Nov '13

I have a certain software on CentOS 6.4 that gave the following error: X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist) Major opcode of failed request: 45 (X_OpenFont) Serial number of failed request: 15 Current serial number in output stream: 30 Running strace shows that the error happens just about here: writev(4, [{"-\2\21\0\4\0\240\0027\0\240\2-adobe-helvetica-bol"..., ... I thought some fonts were missing from my system, so I went on to insall all xorg-x11-fonts-* packages on my system. The Adobe fonts should be included in the xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi package. I thought the fonts may not be in the fonts path, so I ran xset q. The fonts seemed to be in the X font path. Keyboard Control: auto repeat: on key click percent: 0 LED mask: 00000000 XKB indicators: 00: Caps Lock: off 01: Num Lock: off 02: Scroll Lock: off 03: Shift Lock: off 04: Group 2: off 05: Mouse Keys: off auto repeat delay: 65535 repeat rate: 0 auto repeating keys: 00feffffdffffbbf fadfffffffdfe5ef ffffffffffffffff ffffffffffffffff bell percent: 50 bell pitch: 400 bell duration: 100 Pointer Control: acceleration: 2/1 threshold: 4 Screen Saver: prefer blanking: yes allow exposures: yes timeout: 0 cycle: 0 Colors: default colormap: 0x50 BlackPixel: 0 WhitePixel: 16777215 Font Path: /usr/NX/share/fonts/TTF,/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/share/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/share/X11/fonts/100dpi/,/usr/share/X11/fonts/TTF/,/usr/NX/share/fonts/base,/usr/NX/share/fonts/base,/usr/NX/share/fonts/base Bug Mode: compatibility mode is disabled DPMS (Energy Star): Standby: 0 Suspend: 0 Off: 0 DPMS is Disabled Despite all these, the font requried (any font from the Adobe family) seems not to be reported with xlsfonts, and the application error persists. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

>gparted and if it is the system-partition a Live-CD with gparted Excuse me, the source hard disk is a second hard disk connected to usb drive . The actual scenario is the main hard disk is my centos machine and the second source hard disk connected to usb port and the target is the third hard disk connected to usb port. Is it still necessary to use gparted with live cd or there is another simple procedure for this scenario? In the meantime, If I want to format the target hard disk with the same geometry as the source hard disk what can I do to accomplish that ? Thank you
