Getting a do_IRQ: xx.xxx No irq handler for vector (irq -1), any ideas?

I setup a CentOS 6 server to use with KVM/QEMU, and I am getting the following error a good bit, granted it doesn't seem to be causing any trouble.

yum problem
by Phil Dobbin 08 Sep '13

08 Sep '13

Hi, all. I'm experiencing a problem with Yum. When I call 'sudo yum update' it tells me that it can't find any mirrors & after doing a 'sudo yum clean all' it just informs me it can't find any base repo & quits. This is on a brand new installation of CentOS 6.2 x86_64. I suffered the same problem with Fedora 19 too. I have several Ubuntu & Mac OS X machines that suffer no network connection problems & I can connect to the InterWeb just fine (via two HP Procurve 2426s). Any help appreciated. Cheers, Phil...

Qeury regarding 64GB SSD + 2tb?
by Rajagopal Swaminathan 07 Sep '13

07 Sep '13

Greetings, I have a system x3100 m4 system with 64GB SSD for OS and 2x2tb for data as MD device (software RAID). It had Fedora 17 with EFI/ I tried to install centos 6. deleting the existing partitions on the SSD /dev/sdc. sda and sdb are the 2x2tb md device mounted on /home. no joy. googling Questions: 1. Where do I locate the boot loader? /dev/sdc? is MBR (the default with Centos) enough 2. Is it necessary to have GPT label and EFI on /dev/sdc? 3. Will it affect in anyway sda and sdb (I am not choosing to format them)? any pointers with information to wrap my head around FC17 was running fine after I fsck-ed the /dev/sdc4 which had vanished when this box came in. To my knowlege, a root file system of size 64GB should be handled peacefully by centos. GPT comes into picture only on > 2tb partitions for different mountpoints. or is it that any system mounting more than 2tb disk as non-root will necessarily need a boot disk with a GPT label and EFI partition? Am I right or have I got it all wrong? Any reply and pointers appreciated. Thanks in advance, -- Regards, Rajagopal

X11partioning
by Jerry Geis 06 Sep '13

06 Sep '13

Hi All, I am searching for a way in X11 to "partition" or "divide" the screen. For example the physical size of the screen may be 1920x1080 but what if I want 3 sections like A B C where A is treated as a screen or division by itself, then B and C the same way. Some subset of the screen. So the application running in space A does not affect the application B or C and vice versa. Does something like that exist of X11? All this is on the same physical screen. Just dividing it up. Thanks Jerry

Help with VMware ESXi manager for CentOS - newbie level
by Ljubomir Ljubojevic 06 Sep '13

06 Sep '13

Hi. On my new job we use VMware ESXi (Free version), but my colleagues use Windows on their PC's. I am allowed to use CentOS Linux, but I have no prior experience with WMVare. I now (today) have to install CentOS 6.x minimal on that ESXi server, so I am trying to wrap my head around whole ecosystem. What should I install on my CentOS 6.x so I can access/manage ESXi server and manage it? Direct link or nice howto would help me immensely. When ever I search the net, I get how to install CentOS client (they mean guest) ON VMware. -- Ljubomir Ljubojevic (Love is in the Air) PL Computers Serbia, Europe Google is the Mother, Google is the Father, and traceroute is your trusty Spiderman...

I've installed CentOS 6.4 on my notebook but sometimes when I boot it, after the screen "booting CentOS in 4..3..2..1" I receive a black screen and not the logo of CentOS with loading progress.

Intel 4600 Graphics (Haswell) in CentOS 6.4
by Glenn Eychaner 05 Sep '13

05 Sep '13

Quick question that I haven't been able to find the answer to (and not for lack of trying, believe me): Is dual-monitor display for the new Intel HD Graphics 4600 (Haswell, e.g. Intel E3-1200v3 family processors) supported in CentOS 6.4? In particular, I'm looking at a SuperMicro X10SAE; SuperMicro has already replied that triple-display only works with a VGA-HDMI-DP combo (lame) and only in Windows (lame), but had no information as to dual-display (they reported to me that only tested single-head configurations [lame] before marking it as "supported" on their website). http://www.supermicro.com/support/resources/OS/C226.cfm I already found that the Intel opensource site only has releases for Fedora 19 and Ubuntu 13, and that X.org lists the latest release as 2011Q3 and the latest support as SandyBridge: http://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads http://www.x.org/wiki/IntelGraphicsDriver/ But the latest version of xorg-x11-drv-intel in ElRepo Extras was uploaded in March of this year, and I haven't found whether the upstream vendor backported or sideported something into the latest distribution. [Yes, I'm STILL working on the workstation configuration. We're considering putting off triple-head support to cut costs, because the dreamy NVS510 cards are expensive. It's like a morass of quicksand sometimes.] Gracias y saludos, -G. -- Glenn Eychaner (geychaner(a)lco.cl) Telescope Systems Programmer, Las Campanas Observatory

possible bug, unusable system after hibernate
by Patrick 05 Sep '13

05 Sep '13

Hi I put my computer into hibernate last night. This morning I could not save thunderbird email drafts and I rebooted my system. It stopped before launching X and offered a root rescue shell. I am using a solid state drive and it's very possible that it just ended up with a failed sector. It's my understanding that these drives are fast but less robust then rotary based ones. This may be nothing but if you have just backed up your data maybe you could try to hibernate just in case it is a real issue and is reproducible. Thanks-Patrick

exclude in a repo file
by Carl T. Miller 03 Sep '13

03 Sep '13

Hi All, I just discovered that the remi repo has updated versions of firefox. This is good news, but it leads me to a question. Is it possible to exclude all packages except one or two in a repo file? The man page for yum.conf didn't give me any hints. I tried unsuccessfully adding this line: exclude=!firefox*,!xulrunner* Is there a way to set up this repo so that when I run "yum upgrade" it will only check the firefox and xulrunner packages from the remi repo? c

Hi there, i recently installed centos 6 64bit version on my HPProBook4530s Laptop. i then issued the command to update the kernel only. it updated the kernel to latest stable 2.6.32-358.14.1.el6.x86_64 kernel.

elrepo kmod-sk98lin.i686
by Steve Brooks 03 Sep '13

03 Sep '13

Hi, I noticed that one of out "Centos 5" servers with an onboard "Marvell 88E8001" was showing some packet overruns. # ifconfig -a eth0 | grep "RX p" RX packets:1629537 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:3694 frame:0 So I thought about using a driver from "elrepo" the lspci id's suggest to install the "kmod-sk98lin" driver. I yum installed the kernel module and on reboot found the server was still using the old "skge" driver. ethtool -i eth0 driver: skge version: 1.6 Looking at modprobe.conf shows # cat /etc/modprobe.conf | grep eth0 alias eth0 skge [1] Should I just change the "skge" in the above line to "sk98lin" and reboot? [2] This motherboard has a "Marvell 88E8052" as a second NIC, currently disbled in the BIOS. Problem is that the "88E8001" NIC has to be "eth0" as it is the one used in a "flexlm" license server file. In Centos five how can you *force* a given NIC controller to always post at "eth0" ? Cheers, Steve

Two external interfaces, one with "default" route and ping problem
by Jobst Schmalenbach 03 Sep '13

03 Sep '13

Hi I have two different IP addresses (in a block of /29), one is on port 0 and the other is on port 2 of a Ciso 888. I am doing this so I can have two different certs with two different ip addresses. I have tried: 1) one machine, two real interfaces, two cables (eth0 and eth2) 2) one machine, one real interface eth0 and one virtual interface eth0:1, one network cable Using number 2) I can ping the two different ip addresses, no problem. The only problem here is that iptables does not work (I cannot create rules for eth0:1 - and yes I know about the security implications). I have a problem with number number 1) I can ping the first ip address and I get a return, but I cannot get a return when I ping the second ip address. I can see traffic coming into the second interface but it does not return. Now one of the interfaces needs the "default" route applied (is this correct??), which is eth0. I assume this is a routing problem? What do I need to do to get this to work? Jobst -- Student to Teacher: Sir, what's an oxymoron? ....

Message from syslogd@localhost ... kernel:Disabling IRQ #17
by Michael Hennebry 02 Sep '13

02 Sep '13

" Message from syslogd@localhost at Aug 27 08:57:53 ... kernel:Disabling IRQ #17" is the message I got on all my terminal windows at the time indicated. What is it complaining about? What should I do about it? I got some information from dmesg. It mentions IRQ 17, but the only error is from before the most recent hibernation. Here are some excerpts, in order from dmesg: SELinux: initialized (dev proc, type proc), uses genfs_contexts hda-intel: IRQ timing workaround is activated for card #1.

I note that https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=381331 was closed with a WONTFIX. I also grepped dmesg for IRQ and 17. There were four distinct messages: i801_smbus 0000:00:1f.3: PCI INT B -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 Intel ICH 0000:00:1f.5: PCI INT B -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 snd_hda_intel 0000:01:00.1: PCI INT B -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 Disabling IRQ #17 The first and last were there once, first and last. The others alternated, eleven times each. I think I kow what snd_hda_intel and Intel ICH are, but it doesn't help I'm really fuzzy on i801_smbus. What is syslogd complaining about and what should I do about it? -- Michael hennebry(a)web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "On Monday, I'm gonna have to tell my kindergarten class, whom I teach not to run with scissors, that my fiance ran me through with a broadsword." -- Lily

Hi, Earlier I asked how I could arrange a bell tone on my CentOS box. I have pcspkr loaded, I can play music over my boxes but the system beep or bell is missing. Seeveral people commented on gnome issues, but I'm using only text-mode. Whe I go down with the cursor e.g. on the command-line I dont hear anything. Is there a way to switch the bell/beep on???

Adding new root suffix to 389 server
by Stephen Harris 30 Aug '13

30 Aug '13

My apologies if this is off-topic... On a centos6.4 system I installed 389 server from EPEL. It seems to work well enough. However I'm trying to script things, rather than do it via the GUI. So, for example, I want to add a new suffix: #!/bin/ksh -p pswd=$(cat ~/passwd) add() { echo "dn: cn=example,cn=ldbm database,cn=plugins,cn=config changetype: add objectclass: extensibleObject objectclass: nsBackendInstance nsslapd-suffix: dc=example,dc=com dn: cn=dc=example\,dc=com,cn=mapping tree,cn=config changetype: add objectclass: top objectclass: extensibleObject objectclass: nsMappingTree nsslapd-state: backend nsslapd-backend: example cn: dc=example,dc=com " | ldapmodify -a -D "cn=directory manager" -w $pswd -h $1 } add my_server This appears to work. adding new entry "cn=example,cn=ldbm database,cn=plugins,cn=config" adding new entry "cn=dc=example\,dc=com,cn=mapping tree,cn=config" However I then try and use this new root suffix: #!/bin/ksh -p pswd=$(cat ~/passwd) add() { echo "dn: dc=stephen_test,dc=example,dc=com objectClass: top objectClass: domain dc: stephen_test " | ldapmodify -a -D "cn=directory manager" -w $pswd -h $1 } add my_server And this fails adding new entry "dc=stephen_test,dc=example,dc=com" ldap_add: No such object (32) Similarly: % ldapsearch -x -b 'dc=example,dc=com' # extended LDIF # # LDAPv3 # base <dc=example,dc=com> with scope subtree # filter: (objectclass=*) # requesting: ALL # # search result search: 2 result: 32 No such object # numResponses: 1 Clearly I'm missing something obvious... but I can't see what! -- rgds Stephen

ntpd heavy CPU consumption
by Steve Thompson 29 Aug '13

29 Aug '13

CentOS 6.4, x86_64. ntpd on one of my systems has started consuming 66% of one core, although it appears to be functioning correctly otherwise. No pertinent logs. Of course, nothing was changed :) I've seen this before many times, but usually the CPU consumption falls back to normal within a day or so, but this has been going on for several weeks now. Stopping and restarting ntpd makes no difference. Reinstalling ntpd makes no difference. The ntpd.conf file is the same as on 200+ other systems, all of which work normally. Anyone seen this before?

list installed packaged, without formatting overhead
by Mihamina Rakotomandimby 29 Aug '13

29 Aug '13

Hi all, In order to make the same installation on two servers where all was installed via yum/rpm, I want to dump a list of all installed packages on the first server. My problem is if I just "yum list installed", some weird formatting prints packages information on 2 lines... I have to # yum list installed | awk '{print $1}' \ | grep -v '@' | grep -vE '^[0-9]' Is there a cleaner way? # rpm -aq Is not OK because it includes version in a way it's more hard to parse just the package name. Thank you. -- RMA.

redirecting web requests from localhost
by Miguel González 29 Aug '13

29 Aug '13

Dear all, I´m testing a server and try to simulate a server in production. We have a SSL certificate and I have configured the test server with the same servername as it is in production. To access it, I change the hosts file in my laptop to reach the test server. However, the Java application running in the server tries to access some local web content. I have changed the hosts file and some applications (ping, wget) they get the local IP address. However nslookup and maybe our Java application (I didn´t have the programmer available to debug it) are getting the production server IP. So, how can I redirect for instance 443 traffic to a specific IP to the local IP address of the local server? I have tried this: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to YYY.YYY.YYY.YYY XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX - IP of production server YYY.YYY.YYY.YYY - local IP of the test server Thanks Miguel This message and any attachments are intended for the use of the addressee or addressees only.

IF (IF) is trying to get data by hostname, dnsmasq maybe could help. IF (IF) is by ip addres, problem still here. First he need understand how is working the app or wait to developer. I prefer lost 2 minutes with grep, that a lot of minutes with dnsmasq AND 2 minutes with grep later..

Latest chromium i686 - Illegal Instruction
by Trutwin, Joshua 27 Aug '13

27 Aug '13

Hi, I recently upgraded chromium on a 32-bit CentOS 6.4 system yesterday to version to chromium-28.0.1500.95-213514.i686. I then ran the chrome_pepperflash_copy.sh script, but my copy of the script was before it was modified to check the architecture so it downloaded the 64 bit chrome rpm and installed that version of pepper. I tried to run chromium but was greeted with "Illegal Instruction (core dumped)". I then noticed the 64-bit rpm was downloaded so I removed /opt/chromium/PepperFlash and completely re-installed chromium.i686. No go. So I then cleaned up /tmp, rebooted and removed ~/.cache/google-chrome and ~/.config/chrome. Unfortunately it is still crashing. I'm not sure if it has to do with the updated version or the botched 64-bit pepperflash installation, the script doesn't seem to do anything other than create /opt/chromium/PepperFlash and update the .desktop file. I ran an strace of /opt/chromium/chrome-wrapper and put it here: http://pastie.org/8272854 - it's always crashing on statfs64("/selinux", ....) - not sure what that means though. /selinux exists, selinux is actually disabled. Anyone else having issues like this? Thank you, Josh

Centos 6.4 problem with double spaced printing
by Billy Davis 26 Aug '13

26 Aug '13

We have a Centos 5.8 32 bit server that has been printing fine since we installed it. Recently, we also installed a new server with 64 bit Centos 6.4. On both servers, we print all reports with a simple 'lp' command. The new server prints all reports with double spacing. We looked at the text file that is being printed and found that it contains both '<cr>' and '<nl>' characters. On the 5.8 server, this does not seem to be a problem, but on the 6.4 server, it is. Does anyone know of a fix for this problem? Thanks BDavis

k3b -> cddb doesn't work
by ken 26 Aug '13

26 Aug '13

Copying a CD with k3b is no problem, except I want to include on my copy the cbbd data (from freedb.org) I've configured k3b's cddb section according to instructions at <http://www.freedb.org/en/faq.3.html#15> and read every article google could find about "k3b cddb freedb.org config", but still k3b can't manage it. Grip handles getting the cddb data just fine. I'm beginning to think that k3b is simply broke as far as this functionality is concerned. But I thought I'd ask here if anyone has found a way to make this work. tia for all helpful tips.

Re: [CentOS] Is X79 Motherboard supported by latest "Centos 5.9" version?
by Michael Duvall 26 Aug '13

26 Aug '13

Hi Guys, In a bit of a pickle.. Is anyone running the latest "Centos 5.9" or earlier version with an Intel X79 based motherboard. I have a server which needs the motherboard replacing asap and I have a spare "Sabertooth X79". I have a machine with a "Sabertooth X79" motherboard to test on which boots up fine on on "Centos 5.9 i386" image from the troubled server. However the output from "lspci" (see below) seems far less descriptive than you normally see in "Centos 5" or "Centos 6". I am just a bit worried that this might imply lack of support. I do not need audio/firewire.. but need the essential to work memory, sata etc. Also I thought "i386" installs could not see more than 3 and a bit Gigs of ram? The test machine has 32G and meminfo shows MemTotal: 3574676 kB MemFree: 3146556 kB Steve, You need to run a PAE 32-bit kernel in order to see more than 3.1 GB. I wouldn't be too concerned about the lspci output yet. Regards, -- Michael Duvall <michael.duvall(a)ccur.com> Concurrent Computer Corporation

System Hang on busy NFS server
by James A. Peltier 26 Aug '13

26 Aug '13

On a busy NFS server I've started receiving the following error messages and the system hangs with high load but no work being done. The system is a Dell R510 with 12 x 3TB drives in a RAID-50 configuration. The RAID-50 device is a full disk LVM (no partitions) and one large (36TB) data volume and the system is running CentOS 6.4 fully patched for OS and firmware. Anyone have any hints as to what might be causing this. It looks to me like the system is starting to swap and then failing and then XFS starts to throw a hissy fit because it can't start allocating pages for it's buffers. Eventually then the system just deadlocks. I'm just looking for someone to confirm my findings and let me know if this is a bug or not. I've posted the dmesg output onto pastebin http://pastebin.com/YQbhsN6a Any help is very much appreciated! -- James A.

Fastest way of removing very large number of files?
by Rafał Radecki 24 Aug '13

24 Aug '13

Hi All. I currently have a problem on my backup server with very large number of small files in a large number of directories. I would like to delete them as fast as possible. Currently I use: rsync -a --delete /empty_directory/ dir_to_clean/ I've read that rsync will be faster than rm or find. Can you recommend something? I use an ext4 filesystem. Best regards, Rafal.

fsck.ext4 Failed to optimize directory
by Joakim Ziegler 24 Aug '13

24 Aug '13

I had a rather large ext4 partition on an Areca RAID shut down uncleanly while it was writing. When I mount it again, it recommends fsck, which I do, and I get the following error: Failed to optimize directory ... EXT2 directory corrupted This error shows up every time I run fsck.ext4 on this partition. How can I fix this? The file system seems to work ok otherwise, I can mount it and it doesn't complain, using it looks like it's ok, etc. -- Joakim Ziegler - Supervisor de postproducción - Terminal joakim(a)terminalmx.com - 044 55 2971 8514 - 5264 0864

LVM RAID0 and SSD discards/TRIM
by Joakim Ziegler 24 Aug '13

24 Aug '13

I'm trying to work out the kinks of a proprietary, old, and clunky application that runs on CentOS. One of its main problems is that it writes image sequences extremely non-linearly and in several passes, using many CPUs, so the sequences get very fragmented. The obvious solution to this seems to be to use SSDs for its output, and some scripts that will pick up and copy our the sequences in proper order once it's done. I have two 512GB SSDs, and I've used LVM to set up a RAID0 between them. I've got that part running, but since I'm on CentOS 5.8 (which is what this application officially supports), I don't have a kernel with SSD discard support, and after a few days (I told you, this application is write intensive), things get very slow. Using hdparm to secure erase the drives and recreating the LVM RAID0 gets things back to speed again, but that's obviously not ideal. So, from what I understand, if I can get this thing running on CentOS 6.4, I'll get kernel discard support, and discard support in LVM when running a RAID0. I'm using ext4. Is that correct? Will this solve my problem? I want to confirm that discard support works on a RAID0 of SSDs using LVM and ext4 before I start working on getting this legacy application to run on a newer CentOS. -- Joakim Ziegler - Supervisor de postproducción - Terminal joakim(a)terminalmx.com - 044 55 2971 8514 - 5264 0864

Setting Up LVS to Load Balance DNS
by Trevor Kates 23 Aug '13

23 Aug '13

Greetings, all: OS: CentOS 6.4 x86_64 Kernel: 2.6.32-358.14.1 I could use some assistance with setting up pulse to load balance my dns servers. I've configured tcp and udp port 53 with the piranha gui, set up arptable rules on the real servers and added the virtual ip to the bond0 interface on the real servers, but I'm still having no luck in getting things going. A dig against the virtual ip address simply times out and ipvsadm shows no servers under the UDP connection for the virtual IP I defined in lvs.cf. Nanny also complains in /var/log/messages like so: READ to x.x.x.x timed out I've attached my lvs.cf and sysctl.conf files for the lvs server and real dns servers. Any help or nudges in the right direction would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. --

Make server reboot by itself instead of dropping to kernel debugger
by Alexander Farber 23 Aug '13

23 Aug '13

Hello, on OpenBSD if you put ddb.panic=0 into /etc/sysctl.conf, the server won't drop into debugger on kernel panic. Is there please a similar setting for CentOS 6.4 / 64 bit? The background is that I have a new dedicated server with Haswell CPU and once a month it is stuck, displaying kernel trace (the other users at my hoster have similar problems). So the users of my web site complain. I'd prefer my web server to just reboot Thank you Alex

RHEL Subscriptions
by Anthony K 23 Aug '13

Hello List Members. I was recently approached by Dell stating that I HAVE TO renew my Red Hat Subscriptions. I challenged this statement and was informed that this has always been the case and that all servers I have bought off of Dell over the years need to have current subscription! I've been searching the Red Hat website to find where this is stated but can't seem to locate this info. So, is Dell having me on? Cheers, ak.

Re: [CentOS] k3b -> cddb doesn't work
by Lamar Owen 23 Aug '13

23 Aug '13

Whee. Here we go again. There are properly built and packaged RPMs for Jorg's (sorry, android keyboard I'm using doesn't have the proper marking for the o there) cdrtools, for EL6. I'm using them on a few installs where wodim just simply does the wrong thing and cdrtools does the right thing. Those packages properly obsolete the wodim ones and install in the correct places with the correct dependencies; I want to say they're from the city-fan.org repo. (I'm not on my EL6 laptop, but on my phone right now,so I can't easily check). In my case, I rebuilt from the source RPM, and that worked well. Once I'm back where I can check I'll verify the repo and provide a pointer (again; it is in the archives of this list.....).

USB Audio sound card
by Glenn Eychaner 23 Aug '13

23 Aug '13

All- Ah, the saga of the 1U workstation continues. So, in all my work configuring the thing, I completely forgot about AUDIO; I only realized my mistake when I went on a cable-measuring expedition this morning. Unfortunately, none of the 1U servers I've been looking at come with audio outputs (there aren't even audio headers on the motherboard), and I've used the only availabnle slot for my fancy graphics card! Now, a lesser (or maybe smarter) individual would give up at this point, and go back to MiniITX or a 2U rackmount (if I could find a short-depth one). "Nay!" I say. What about USB Audio? I don't need 5.1 or 7.1 audio here; I'm plugging in a Dell monitor soundbar. A quick search of the web says that yes, these devices will work under CentOS and show up as /dev/dspX devices. So, do devices like these: SYBA SD-CM-UAUD USB Stereo Audio Adapter http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812186035 Turtle Beach Audio Advantage Amigo II USB Interface Sound Card & Headset Adapter http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829118008 StarTech ICUSBAUDIO USB to Stereo Audio Adapter Converter http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829128002 work under CentOS 6? Is there one that anyone can recommend? -G. -- Glenn Eychaner (geychaner(a)lco.cl) Telescope Systems Programmer, Las Campanas Observatory

Slightly OT: PCIe x16 card in x8 slot
by Glenn Eychaner 22 Aug '13

22 Aug '13

So, in the ongoing saga of the unusual 1U short-depth workstation, we have narrowed the field to two choices. Both entrants are configured with 16GB memory (4x4GB), two 2.5" drives (1x250GB SSD and 1x1TB HDD), and an NVIDIA NVS510 graphic card (quad display): 1) SuperMicro 5017R-MF, Xeon E5-2609 processor 2) SuperMicro 5017C-LF, Xeon E3-1220 processor (I wish SuperMicro had a list of their servers by chassis somewhere.) I have no preference between the solutions for right now, though I have a major concern with the second solution; the PCIe slot is only x8, and the NVS510 is a x16 card. The vendor assures me that a riser/adapter can be found to plug the card into the slot, and that it will work, but I am highly concerned about the performance. I know nothing about PCIe (I haven't built a system in 10 years, though I have read the PCIe Wikipedia entries and some guides); what kind of performance hit can I expect? Also, are there any solutions I have overlooked? Thanks again, -G. -- Glenn Eychaner (geychaner(a)lco.cl) Telescope Systems Programmer, Las Campanas Observatory

http://www.city-fan.org/ftp/contrib/yum-repo/ is the city-fan.org repo master; you will likely want to us the University of Seville mirror at http://nervion.us.es/city-fan/yum-repo/ . Do note that installing these packages will replace what could be considered core portions of the system; you're on your own as far as support is concerned, in other words. I did not check if the version of cdrtools there is the absolute latest; it wasn't when I first found this repo, which is why I rebuilt from the source RPM (using the latest cdrtools upstream source and slightly modified city-fan spec file; city-fan updated not long afterwards, and this package has been recently updated, as recently as this month). k3b and other tools can use this package just fine; while there are some neat features that k3b and other GUI frontends don't expose, that's ok for most purposes. You can add your own command line parameters in the k3b setup. But the EL6 version of k3b is quite old at this point. YMMV, you break it you keep the pieces, etc.

Problem with DHCP and default route in CentOS
by Joshua J. Kugler 21 Aug '13

21 Aug '13

I have a CentOS 6.4 VM that is getting its DHCP information from dnsmasq (a libvirt instance). However, it is not applying the routing information. Attached is a tcpdump of the dhcpc output. You'll see: Default-Gateway Option 3, length 4: 192.168.122.1 However, when I run 'route -n', I get: # route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.122.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1002 0 0 eth0 Any ideas as to why the default route/gateway information isn't being applied? j -- Joshua J.

More browsers!

21 Aug '13

I'm running CentOS 6 on one machine, plus my wife's. She's OK with it, but every time I use it, I miss the glorious plethora of browsers that Fedora has gotten me used to. I have epel and rpmfusion (both free and unfree) enabled; is there some other repo I can safely add? -- Beartooth Implacable, Curmudgeonly Codger Learning Linux On the Internet, you can never tell who is a dog -- supposing you care -- but you can tell who has a mind.

Triple- or Quad-display single-card graphics solutions
by Glenn Eychaner 20 Aug '13

20 Aug '13

So, after some discussion of our new control workstations, we are iterating in on a solution; we are looking at a 1U short-depth SuperMicro SuperServer 5017R-MF with a graphics card in the PCI-Ex16 expansion slot. However, the display requirements have increased to 3 or more monitors for future expansion, so I was wondering whether anyone had any experience with triple- or quad-display single card solutions. Thus far, I have found two promising solutions: NVidia NVS 510 or 450 Matrox M-series M9138 or M9148 Both these solutions claim to have Linux support, but I was wondering if anyone had any experience with them in CentOS 6.4? And if there were any other solutions I had overlooked? Thanks, -G. -- Glenn Eychaner (geychaner(a)lco.cl) Telescope Systems Programmer, Las Campanas Observatory

mail server: sendmail with integrated AD
by Riccardo Castellani 20 Aug '13

20 Aug '13

I'm preparing my new Sendmail mail server with pop3s + smtps where user authentication occurs through Microsoft Active Directory by Winbind daemon. OS is Centos 6.4 and Sendmail is 8.14 Mailboxes will be in this server but how to create them !??! It's necessary to add user by 'useradd' command into /etc/passwd or It's only necessary add new entry in '/etc/aliases' file for every AD user like in following example ?! mark.landers: marklanders - 'marklander' is the user account in Microsoft AD - user mail is 'mark.landers(a)example.com' POP3s the account name (AD user), which I'll use to access my mailbox by pop3s, must have the same name of mailbox file ? According to previous example: if I wanted to download email of 'mark.landers(a)example.com', in my client I shall have to type 'marklanders' with its password, so my requirement is to have this mailbox file into my mail server: <mail path>/<user> for example: /var/spool/mail/marklanders I think pop3S WILL SEARCH mailbox with the same name of account name ! What do you think ?

Really Weird Question.....
by Eddie G. O'Connor Jr. 20 Aug '13

20 Aug '13

So I just got ahold of an old e-Machine (Model EL1600) with 1GB of memory. I was going to install CEntOS on it and try to run VirtualBox for other OS'es. I am curious to know if I have to stick with the 2GB "max" the specs say the machine can take or if its possible to install a 4GB module that is designed the same? In other words I have seen 2GB DDR PC2700 memory that will fit the casing and work, but I have ALSO seen 4GB DDR PC6400 memory modules with the same number of pins (240) will this work? I would want to have as much memory in there that will allow the VirtualBox to run smoothly.....any help would be appreciated! EGO II

But that was it's intent and it isn't likely to ever change. I'm just glad that people like Larry Wall understood that early-on and used dual-licensing to make at least some software usable in more situations. . -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

Re: [CentOS] qemu-kvm package?
by Gene Poole 19 Aug '13

19 Aug '13

Let me say that your question does not match your subject. I run a 32-bit CentOS with virt-manager installed to monitor the virtual machines running on a 64-bit CentOS. That leaves the following: Is it because I'm running CentOS 5.9 in both cases? Or is it because I performed a full install from a DVD in both cases? That being said, It's a fact that virt-manager will run on a 32-bit OS. Thanks, Gene Poole

Xyratex disk units
by Tony Schreiner 19 Aug '13

19 Aug '13

I am wondering if any one knows of a way to manage Xyratex disk shelves from CentOS (in particular CentOS 4). More details: Some years ago I installed a NAS unit from Exanet which consists of 2 rebadged IBM x3650 head nodes and a couple of Xyratex disk shelves with a total of 96 TB of raw disk, connected by fibre channel. The operating system is based on CentOS 4.4, but is modified, and runs a proprietary file system. It has pretty good performance and I'm happy with it. You may know that the company went bust some years ago, so I have been running this system unsupported. I am loath to give up the disk space though. The two things I worry about are, the fibre channel connection and the external disk trays. Unfortunately, what I know about fibre channel is very little. They are emulex HBAs, and I guess there used to software called lputil, but this is no longer available at the Emulex site. It has been replaced by something called HBAnywhere, but I have not succeeded in building that on CentOS 4. Uprading the OS is out of the question I would think while maintaining the file system capability. And the other question is how to manage the LUNs on the Xyratex's. I'd be grateful for any info anyone has on either. Tony Schreiner

Red Hat CEO: Go Ahead, Copy Our Software
by Robert Arkiletian 18 Aug '13

18 Aug '13

http://www.businessinsider.com/red-hat-ceo-go-ahead-copy-our-software-2013-8 Title says is all. Nice to know RH understands and accepts the relationship between CentOS and RHEL. Although it is complex. After all, if too many choose CentOS, there may no longer be a CentOS. However, I don't think I would refer to CentOS as a "parasite" as the author Matt Asay does. More appropriate to call it symbiotic. Is the relationship a 50/50 affair? Not sure. Complicating matters even more is Oracle Unmistakable Linux.

Back-up connection
by Timothy Murphy 18 Aug '13

18 Aug '13

Some weeks ago, I asked if anyone had set up a backup scheme for a remote server. By backup here, I mean an alternative arrangement that can be called upon if eg the DSL connection to the remote machine fails. I received one interesting reply: ====================== At home, besides my fixed lines, I have two gsm-modems, one low-speed (that came free of charge with one of my fixed lines), the other is high speed, but pre-paid, normally off) ====================== I meant to respond at the time, asking for further details, but forgot, and now I have lost the original message. So now I am posting again, asking if anyone has implemented any such arrangement. If you have, I would be very interested to hear the details. In my case, I spend time in two countries - Ireland and Italy - and have servers in each place. The problem in both places is that the ADSL modem sometimes goes off, and the only way to turn it back on seems to be to disconnect and re-connect the power supply. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland

Binaries are not open by definition. They are built for one specific environment by one specific compiler and one or both both of those may not be covered by a GPL of some sort. How then can such a binary be considered a derived work under the GPL? The GPLs that I have read are concerned with the source and only the source. From that source you may build the software without consideration of the nature of the build tools and therefore the results (binaries) I believe are not, and meaningfully cannot be, covered by the GPL. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

OT: laptop recommendations for CentOS6
by carlopmart 17 Aug '13

17 Aug '13

Hi all, First of all, sorry for the OT. I need to buy a new laptop for my work. My prerequisites are: - RAM: 6/8 GiB (preferably 8 GiB) - Processor: Core i7 - Disk: up to 500 GiB for SATA, 128 GiB for SSD. - Graphics card: Intel HD (I really hate to use Nvidia or ATI Radeon graphics cards). The most important tasks will be: - Surf the web :) - Read email - And the Most important task: I need to install complete virtual test labs on it using KVM, Xen and VMware suites to run several different types of OSes: RHEL, CentOS, OEL, Solaris-like, BSD, Windows 2012/2008 R2, etc. Any suggestions?? My first choice will be Toshiba or Lenovo laptops and of course it needs to be 100% compatible with CentOS6 (or almost at 95%). Thanks.

If the threat of such consequences aren't a restriction, what would be? I realize that Red Hat does, in fact do more than required in other areas so this is just a philosophical point, but I don't see how their treatment of binaries meshes with the letter of the GPL. I also realize that since CentOS and other derivative distros rely on the 'more than required' parts (non-GPL'd parts, source in easily reusable form, etc.), it could all go away on a whim, just like the freely redistributable binaries did, so even if you are happy with today's scenario, there's no reason to expect it to last. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

They are not considered differently in terms of restrictions you can apply or adding to 'works as a whole' in copyright terms. If the distribution of any part of a work is only permitted by the GPL and you don't follow the GPL terms (say, by adding restrictions of your own), you would not be permitted to distribute at all. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

Everything is about derived works. So binaries cannot be exempt from the requirement that the work as a whole can only be distributed under a license that permits free redistribution and that additional restrictions cannot be added.

minimal X applications needed to export to remote server?
by Joseph Spenner 16 Aug '13

16 Aug '13

I'm running a piece of network backup software called 'bacula', on a minimal CentOS 6.4 install. I got everything working pretty well, but there's one piece giving me some problem-- a component which gives status info via a GUI. In the past, on previous installations, I could ssh to the bacula server with the -X option, and run the application (called 'bat'), and it would display back. I'd have to make sure the sshd_config permits Xforwarding, but that was all. On my new CentOS 6.4 minimal, I always get: bat: cannot connect to X server I tried the usual tricks of exporting the display to my system where I want to see the GUI, which shouldn't be necessary anyway due to the 'ssh -X', but I thought I'd give it a shot. Still no go. I figured something was missing, since it is a minimal install, with no X. So I installed 'xlogo', thinking maybe all the X stuff needed to display that would be installed. By installing xlogo, I got a bunch of X stuff, including: xorg-x11-apps-7.6-6.el6.x86_64 I also have: libXau-1.0.6-4.el6.x86_64 libX11-1.5.0-4.el6.x86_64 libXrender-0.9.7-2.el6.x86_64 libXcursor-1.1.13-2.el6.x86_64 libXft-2.3.1-2.el6.x86_64 libXxf86vm-1.1.2-2.el6.x86_64 libXi-1.6.1-3.el6.x86_64 libXmu-1.1.1-2.el6.x86_64 libXaw-1.0.11-2.el6.x86_64 libX11-common-1.5.0-4.el6.noarch libXext-1.3.1-2.el6.x86_64 libXfixes-5.0-3.el6.x86_64 libXdamage-1.1.3-4.el6.x86_64 libXrandr-1.4.0-1.el6.x86_64 libXinerama-1.1.2-2.el6.x86_64 libXv-1.0.7-2.el6.x86_64 libXt-1.1.3-1.el6.x86_64 libXpm-3.5.10-2.el6.x86_64 But I still get the error.

RocketRAID cards (actually, solved)
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 16 Aug '13

16 Aug '13

If anyone's got old RocketRAID cards, I just had to deal with one. They are years behind in updating their drivers - googling, I find the last time some were supported was CentOS 5.2. At any rate, I have just managed to build 1.8 of rr232x successfully, and am building filesystems on the drive as I type. I d/l the compressed tarballs from HighPoint's site. The changes to make it compile were: 1. /* if (bdev && blkdev_get(bdev, FMODE_READ, 0 __BDEV_RAW)==0) { # Above for < 2.6.28 */ if (bdev && blkdev_get(bdev, FMODE_READ)==0) { Note that the last two parms from the original call were removed. 2. /* blkdev_put(bdev __BDEV_RAW); (or, in another case, just BDEV_RAW) # above < 2.6.28 */ blkdev_put(bdev, FMODE_READ); 3. In osm_linux.h, their definition redefines what the Linux header files say. I made the following change. Note that I wanted to make sure IRQ_HANDLED was defined, presuming it's in use elsewhere, and I'm making minimal changes to the code. /* #ifndef IRQ_HANDLED */ #ifndef _LINUX_IRQRETURN_H 4. In osm_linux.c, I changed from the first line below to the second. /* SCpnt->result = ((DRIVER_INVALID|SUGGEST_ABORT)<<24) | (DID_ABORT<<16); */ SCpnt->result = ((DRIVER_INVALID|TASK_ABORTED)<<24) | (DID_ABORT<<16); Again, some defines are long gone. I chose TASK_ABORTED because it had the same hex value as SUGGEST_ABORT, 0x20, and seemed appropriate. Then it was cd into rr232x-linux-src-v1.8/product/rr232x/linux/, make clean, make, make install. The install does the depmod and modprobe. mark

But regardless of how much you care about my opinion, can you seriously say that you like the fact that the community of free users that helped take the Red Hat product from something that barely worked up to the fairly robust and usable 7.x version has been split into a set that favors stability using CentOS where there is really no way to contribute improvements and the wild and crazy fedora set that doesn't care about stability or maintaining compatible interfaces across versions. With the fedora set driving new development... -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

Their product is support and not software. I think we all know that rebuilding SRPMS and development are different worlds but that doesn't mean that the community wouldn't come together to continue moving it forward. I know I'd try to help... The biggest challenge would be in developing the next major iteration but for a product already deep into its cycle like CentOS 6 it wouldn't be very difficult at all. It may shed a number of CentOS users on the front end, but a large number of them would come back.
