black display during installation of CentOS5.5
by Ritika Garg 17 Oct '10

17 Oct '10

During installation of CentOS5.3 from DVD, the installation was interuppted due to an error in a rpm package as the DVD had lot of scratches. So I burned image of CentOS5.5 on DVD. I selected installation in graphical mode. The first graphical interface screen comes from where we proceed further by clicking next. This screen is almost black and its impossible to carry out further installation as visibility is very poor.

Another wireless problem
by David 16 Oct '10

16 Oct '10

Hi folks I have my Linksys WUSB54GC USB wifi card already working. Now I have another issue. Accidentally I tuned off my AP, and when switched it on again my wireless link is still down. I have to unplug the USB card and plug it again to get it working again. I'm new in wireless matter but this doesn't sounds logical to me. What if I loose the link for whatever reason? Should I have to unplug my usb card and plug it again? I don't think so, right? So, wich is the workaround here? Maybe there is a service I'm noy running wich detects the when the link comes up and conect automatically again? Thanks in advance David

Trying to get xen to boot off of an iso or a sysresc image so I can expand a filesystem to the extent of the LVM's free space.
by Peter Serwe 16 Oct '10

I have a Xen LVM based VM with two partitions: /dev/VolGroup00/vm01p1 /dev/VolGroup00/vm01p2 p2 is about 50GB, I gave it's LVM an extra 30 or so using lvextend. How can I extend the partition to fill my free space and the filesystem? I don't mind offline, if I can get Xen to boot off an alternative media.

Re: [CentOS] openoffice.org2.3 in CentOS5.3

I want to update the system because I haven't updated CentOS5.3 from the time when I installed it. But I am also afraid of directly using "yum update" command. I used "yum list updates" but theres a error displayed which I have already posted.

Hi folks I just installed Centos 5.5. I heard about the new changes in wifi support. I tried a USB wifi card from Netgear, and It works fine. It didn't en Centos 5.4, so that's great news.

And with 6 coming soon, I was thinking, though I haven't gone to look, that they'd have 3.1 or 4.x. Thanks, though. mark _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Hi, I don't have ifcfg-eth1 in my /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts. But when I do ifconfig eth1 I can see output as below. If I do ifconfig eth12 , I don't see anything which i am assume is normal. eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:24:E8:44:DB:CC BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) Interrupt:17 Memory:e8000000-e8012800 Don't know why and how this is happening. Thanks! Paras.

installing centOS5.5
by Ritika Garg 15 Oct '10

For burning the image on DVD I found 2 iso files: CentOS-5.5-x86_64-bin-DVD-1of2.iso CentOS-5.5-x86_64-bin-DVD-2of2.iso I found out that the first one is 4.1GB and the second one is 412MB. Do I have to burn the first one on 1 DVD and the second one on another DVD?

Routing local generted packets with fwmark
by C. L. Martinez 15 Oct '10

15 Oct '10

Hi all, I need to route local generated packages depending on which tcp or udp service I need to use. To accomplish this I have configured two routing tables: [root@lothlorien ~]# ip ru ls 0: from all lookup 255 32762: from all fwmark 0x2 lookup FirstLan 32763: from all fwmark 0x1 lookup SecondLan 32764: from 172.25.80.10 lookup SecondLan 32765: from 172.25.70.18 lookup FirstLan 32766: from all lookup main 32767: from all lookup default My routing tables: [root@lothlorien net]# ip ro show table FirstLan 172.25.70.16/28 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 172.25.70.18 default via 172.25.70.30 dev eth1 [root@lothlorien net]# ip ro show table SecondLan 172.25.80.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 172.25.80.10 default via 172.25.80.1 dev eth2 And my iptables rule is: iptables -t mangle -A OUTPUT -p udp --dport 53 -j MARK --set-mark 1 But this doesn't works. This host is CentOS 5.5 based with two interfaces. What am I doing wrong?? Thanks.

grep pattern x, but not pattern y on the same line
by Sven Aluoor 15 Oct '10

15 Oct '10

Hi folks I have the command "find . | xargs grep 'mailx'", to search all files with "mailx" in contents. I wish to add a second condition that NOT contains string sven.aluoor(a)ubs.com on the same line. Every file which contains "mailx", but not the string sven.aluoor(a)ubs.com in the same line. cheers Sven
