ATI video driver problems
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 15 Apr '13

15 Apr '13

User got upgraded to 6.4. Graphical mode video fails. It's an AMD (nee ATI) RV620 (FirePro 2260). So I finished upgrading everything, including kmod-fglrx. Based on the xorg.conf's on there, it's been using the fglrx. Now, in Xorg.0.log, it tells me "no supported AMD display adapters were found". I've been on-and-off googling for hours, and can't figure out if the "legacy" kmod-nvidia from elrepo will work: their info *ONLY* lists Radeon cards, and I can't figure out what this damn thing is. Oh, lspci -v tells me it's "ATI device 2343". Anyone know what this card is like (AMD shows three different models of the same name, and I have no idea which it is, and none uses a Radeon name), and what driver I might use, or do I have to downgrade X.... mark, extremely tired of his user's machine

Asterisk, IAXModem and Hylafax
by James B. Byrne 15 Apr '13

15 Apr '13

Arch = x86_64 OS = CentOS-6.3 (FreePBX) Asterisk = 11.3.0 (FreePBX) Hylafax+ = 5.5.3 (epel) I am installing an Asterisk server with the intent of having it act as our fax server. The Asterisk system was installed using the current FreePBX distro which is reputedly based on CentOS-6.3. I have installed Hylafax+ from epel and I have built and packaged IAXModem-1.2.0 for CentOS-6 using mock and installed that on the Asterisk host. I am past the point of setting up Asterisk and configuring extensions and users. I am able to place and receive internal calls to and from SIP devices and place and receive external calls over a PSTN analogue trunk. The echo generated by the SIP clients is terrible but that problem can wait until I get to dealing with voice service implementation. At the moment I am trying to get Hylafax configured. I have done this in the past albeit for systems using external serial modems. I am at the point of running the faxstup utility which builds the necessary hylafax configuration files. I am getting these errors from the utility: Setting Ghostscript font path in /etc/hylafax/hyla.conf. Warning: /usr/local/lib/ghostscript/fonts does not exist or is not a directory! The directory /usr/local/lib/ghostscript/fonts does not exist or this file is not a directory. This is the directory where the HylaFAX client applications expect to locate font metric information to use in formatting ASCII text for submission as facsimile. Without this information HylaFAX may generate illegible facsimile from ASCII text. Warning: /usr/share/ghostscript/8.70/Resource/Font does not exist or is not a directory!

I realize that this is only tangentially a CentOS question so I crave the list's forbearance. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

upload a file to new github repository
by ken 15 Apr '13

15 Apr '13

Though I've used version control systems before and even set up a couple over the years, and though it was simple to setup a github repository (which I did just a couple minutes ago), I can't figure out how to upload the first file to it. I'm logged in, on the repository's home page, but can't see an option for that. I also read instructions for set up on the web and the git manpage, but no help there. Anybody here know to put a code file into the repository? Thanks.

15 Apr '13

For years I've been doing my (US) taxes, along with the state and local taxes, using gnumeric. I decided I should share what I've done with others. So grab the package if you want... from: <https://github.com/gebser/US-taxes-gnumeric.git>

Dovecot rpms: requesting a minor enhancement
by Max Pyziur 15 Apr '13

15 Apr '13

Greetings, What's the process for requesting minor enhancements to packages? Currently, CentOS dovecot rpms ship w/o having tcp_wrappers enabled; to have dovecot compiled with tcp_wrappers requires adding one directive to the to the dovecot.spec file in the srpm. If the directive isn't there, then any dovecot upgrades via YUM/RPM require first to have the RPMs recompiled before doing the upgrade. Am I the only barking for this change, or could there be others? Thanks, Max Pyziur pyz(a)brama.com

rsync - why not copying all files?
by Robert Moskowitz 14 Apr '13

14 Apr '13

I am doing a new setup, got most of the files in place from other places and then ran my rsync backup from the command line before putting it in crontab. Here is the rsync: rsync -ah --stats --delete /home/ /mnt/sdc1/backups/homebase/home Note that the directory ..../homebase/home did not exist prior to this command; it created it. So here are the stats: Number of files: 6190 Number of files transferred: 5944 Total file size: 4.25G bytes Total transferred file size: 4.25G bytes Literal data: 4.25G bytes Matched data: 0 bytes File list size: 263.95K File list generation time: 0.001 seconds File list transfer time: 0.000 seconds Total bytes sent: 4.25G Total bytes received: 113.93K sent 4.25G bytes received 113.93K bytes 29.60M bytes/sec total size is 4.25G speedup is 1.00 Why would files transferred be less than the number of files? For example, is there some option I need to move hidden files? I do not believe there are any symlinks under /home. Thanks for any help in puzzling this out. I would be greatly upset if some key file was not being backed up.
