Backuppc-updates on CentOS
by Sorin Srbu 25 Feb '10

25 Feb '10

Hi all, I installed BackupPC on one of my Centos 5.4-machines following the wiki at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/BackupPC#head-725ed151d366bcf182cea92f765c373…, where BackupPC is installed from the c5-testing repo. root@mach012 ~/ [0]# rpm -qa backuppc backuppc-3.1.0-1.el5.centos root@mach012 ~/ [0]# Seeing how there's been some updates to BackupPC in the near past, I thought I'd run a yum update to get the updated package. That didn't work. So I searched pbone.net for a BackupPC package on CentOS5 but didn't find any. Doing the same search for RHEL5 gave me two packages (one for i386 and one for x86_64); v3.1.0-5. Looking more closely I saw that the RHEL5-packages were from epel, a repo one maybe shouldn't choose as a primary repo for ones CentOS-systems if you can help it. At least that's the impression I got from the various posts to this list. I thought all packages available from the prominent American upstream provider got a treatment from the CentOS crew? Am I wrong or am I missing something really basic, or some part of the CentOS philosophy here? Or isn't BackupPC a package worthy of being CentOSified? 8-) Thanks. -- BW, Sorin ----------------------------------------------------------- # Sorin Srbu [Sysadmin, Systems Engineer] # Dept of Medicinal Chemistry, Phone: +46 (0)18-4714482 >3 signals> GSM # Div of Org Pharm Chem, Mobile: +46 (0)701-718023 # Box 574, Uppsala University, Fax: +46 (0)18-4714482 # SE-751 23 Uppsala, Sweden Visit: BMC, Husargatan 3, D5:512b # Web: http://www.orgfarm.uu.se ----------------------------------------------------------- # () ASCII ribbon campaign - Against html E-mail # /\ # # MotD follows: # "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another, with no loss of enthusiasm." -Sir Winston Churchill

Desperately need help with multi-core NIC performance
by Pete Kay 25 Feb '10

25 Feb '10

Hi, I am running a VOIP application on Centos 5.3. It is a 16 core box with 12 G of mem and all what it does is passing packets. What happens is that at around 2K channels running g711 ( 64k) codec, all eth0 is used up and no more traffic can go through. I have checked google and it talked about interrupt scheduler. does anyone know how to configure the kernel to allow it to use all CPSs for socket transmission of UDP packets? Any pointer will be greatly appreciated. pete

updated some packages now some windows hang after open or close
by Jerry Geis 24 Feb '10

24 Feb '10

I had a need on a centos 5.4 x86_64 box to try and run with a later totem. I desired to do this by source. After installing the packages below my system comes up, I thought everything was good. thunderbird comes up firefox comes up. totem works -------- however there seems to be an issue with closing or opening windows some random time later with all three programs. It gives the impression that X is hung. Keyboard no longer works - mouse moves but cannot click on anything. ssh into the box still works. I can kill the X server and start all up again for a random time then it looks like it hangs again. I am wondering if anyone knows what this might be - perhaps another package I need to update. I am also running a radeon 3200 driver with the Catalyst binary driver. Thanks for your thoughts.

multi-seated configuration
by Andy Graybeal 24 Feb '10

24 Feb '10

is anyone using a multi-seated configuration with CentOS? I'm thinking about buying a two 2 headed nvidia card to run 4 separate monitors and 4 separate keyboards and mice. I don't mind using either proprietary or opensource nvidia drivers. I'm looking for more information regarding centos and multiseated configurations. I've read a bit about fedora and ubuntu with multiseating, but I haven't found much with CentOS. I'm fairly new to this so I would need pretty good documentation / hand holding to accomplish this. Any information would be helpful. -Andy

sudo for Virtual Machine Manager
by David McGuffey 24 Feb '10

24 Feb '10

I've done everything stated in the various guidance to get a regular user to use virt-manager (graphical Virtual Machine Manager) under CentOS 5.4 with KVM. Placing the user in the kvm group and changing permissions on several files to include kvm has not worked...the user still needs to enter the root password to use the graphical VMM. I thought of pressing sudo into service for this task. Anyone think this will work? Anyone got a better way? DaveM
