The problem is not on my end. :-) The problem is with the DNS settings of LinkShare. I wrote to them, again, this time with information Filipe and Rick provided to me and I'm sure after they change their DNS settings, this problem will go away. :-)

Laptop hd incorrect

Hello I'm new to linux and am trying to install centos 5.3 on my laptop and it has an ata drive but centos does not see the had or cdrom. Googleing does not give me much to check. The laptop is a hp-g60 249wm, latest bios update. The bios does not have any ability to change drive information. The bios basically allows me to only set time, date and boot item. Any advice or direction is appreciated! Thank you Cody Sent on the Now Network� from my Sprint® BlackBerry

If you hit "reply" then the threading information (in -reply-to und references headers) gets inserted as well and thus the message gets threaded to that thread. Opposite to what some people who are new on the net believe the threading is *not* done by the subject but by the threading headers. The subject gets used only in case the threading headers are absent. Kai -- Kai Schätzl, Berlin, Germany Get your web at Conactive Internet Services: http://www.conactive.com

ntp will not drift to correct time
by Tom Brown 12 Aug '09

12 Aug '09

Hi On 5.3 i have a situation where some boxes have been 3 or 4 seconds out and restarting ntpd has fixed the issue. What i dont understand is why the clocks did not drift to the correct time when the config seems correct in that restarting ntp did correct the time. Is there something 'special' i need to do in order for the drift to work? $ cat /etc/ntp.conf restrict default ignore restrict 127.0.0.1 restrict 10.0.0.0 mask 255.0.0.0 nomodify notrap server server01 server server02 fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift broadcastdelay 0.008 keys /etc/ntp/keys # cat /etc/ntp/step-tickers server01 server02 any clues? thanks

Slow IDE on GeForce 8200 board
by Ian Murray 12 Aug '09

12 Aug '09

In my haste for help, I stupidly hit reply and changed the subject which I thought was enough for a new message, not giving much thought for the threading, etc. So apologies for the hijack, although I would think it fairly obvious that it wasn't deliberate or obvious to me... or a big deal really. My mail doesn't thread. Some further info for those actually interested in helping, I forgot that the HD in question had an Ubuntu 8.10 install on it, so I fired that up and hdparm -t produced 56MB/Sec. So the issue is either kernel or config. Thanks for your patience. ----- Forwarded Message ---- I have a system who's normal activity is running Xen 3.3.1 with Centos 5.3 as the DomU. I had reason to connect an IDE drive to the single IDE interface that this board has. I was getting slow performance. hdparm -t revealed that the thoughput was down to just 2.7 MB/sec. After some tweaking (switch on 32 bit,etc) and retesting under a non-Xen config, I managed to get that to 8MB/Sec. When I move the drive to a USB to IDE adapter, hdparm -t gives me about 18MB/Sec. Big improvement, although I don't know if it is then perfect.. My kernel is 2.6.18-128.4.1.el5. I have kernel parameter pci=nomsi. I can't remember exactly why I needed this, but there was a good reason, maybe SATA drive not working properly or some such. Could this be the cause of my issue? The motherboard blurb states that the IDE interface is ATA/133 compliant and I am using the provided IDE cable. I have tried three hard disks, all with similar results. (2x 40gb + 1x 160gb) lspci | grep IDE gives 00:06.0 IDE interface: nVidia Corporation MCP78S [GeForce 8200] IDE (rev a1) As a reference, hdparm -t against the SATA drive in AHCI mode on the same board gives about 110MB/Sec. Any ideas, anyone? Thanks in advance, Ian.

Inclusion in the GNU/Linux distro list
by Bassu 11 Aug '09

11 Aug '09

Hello, I was seeing the FSF's GNU site and noticed that CentOS was included as the proprietary or unendorsed distribution and not as the one following their free software distribution guidelines. So my question is, is it really not possible to comply with them or are we just not willing to! I think by default all software comes (at least with the server stuff) is free on CentOS but though not sure about that kernel "blob" thing! ** *All of the distributions listed on this page fail to follow the guidelines in at least two important ways:* - *They do not have a policy of only including free software, and removing nonfree software if it is discovered. Most of them have no clear policy on what software they'll accept or reject at all. The distributions that do have a policy unfortunately aren't strict enough, as explained below.* - *The version of the kernel Linux that they distribute includes blobs: pieces of object code, distributed without source, usually to help operate some device.* CentOS *We're not aware of problems in CentOS aside from the two listed above: there's no clear policy about what software can be included, and nonfree blobs are shipped with Linux. Of course, with no firm policy in place, there might be other nonfree software included that we missed.* Best, Bassu ------ A player who makes a team great is more valuable than a great player. Losing yourself in the group, for the good of the group, that’s teamwork. -John Wooden

retrieving specific packages from a repo
by Dave 11 Aug '09

11 Aug '09

Hello, I'm setting up an additional repo on a 5.3 machine. I only want three packages out of it, and to exclude all others. I know there's a line to add to the repo file, googling didn't give it to me, anyone know how to get only a selected set of packages from a repo? This is probably a very simple question. Thanks. Dave.
