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.

Bugzilla not working following RHEL to CentOS migration
by Chris Ross 11 Aug '09

11 Aug '09

Dear listmates, I've recently moved a server from RHEL5 to CentOS 5.3 after it was decided not to renew the subscripton. Everything works beautifully except for Bugzilla, which throws MySQL errors. For example, the sanitycheck.cgi page says: # # # Bugzilla – Sanity Check * Home * | New * | Search * | * | Reports * * | My Votes * | Preferences * | Administration * | Log out bugzilla(a)grandeye.com Bugzilla is checking the referential integrity of your database. This may take several minutes to complete. Errors, if any, will be emphasized like this. Depending on the errors found, some links will be displayed allowing you to easily fix them. Fixing these errors will automatically run this script again (so be aware that it may take an even longer time than the first run). OK, now running sanity checks.

Sadly, that didn't show the way out of it. Any help would be gratefully accepted. Many thanks, Chris R.

Building tomcat6, SRPM jakarta-commons-dbcp-1.2.1-7jpp.ep1.2.ep5.el5.src.rpm fails to build
by RedShift 11 Aug '09

11 Aug '09

Hello all I'm trying to build tomcat6 from the SRPMs provided at [1], but I appear to have hit a wall. One of the dependencies of tomcat6-6.0.18-8.18.1.noarch [2] is jakarta-commons-dbcp-tomcat5 (provided by jakarta-commons-dbcp [3]). (I don't see why it's requiring tomcat5 components, maybe that's my problem). When I try to build jakarta-commons-dbcp, compilation fails: BEGIN BUILD OUTPUT [root@testserver build]# rpmbuild --rebuild --without maven jakarta-commons-dbcp-1.2.1-7jpp.ep1.2.ep5.el5.src.rpm >

Encrypted File Storage
by Joseph L. Casale 11 Aug '09

11 Aug '09

Anyone got any experience/suggestions for a way to store a directory of sensitive information on a CentOS box? This directory contains many scripts and output files, I need it backed up but not unencrypted and don't want to store it in a tar file type archive as when it needs to be accessed and have scripts executed/data generated, it needs to be untarred/unencrypted and I don't know the ramifications of this wrt recovery once its retarred and deleted. I was hoping it could be stored somehow such that it was decrypted on the fly when needed by entering a pass/keyphrase before use. Thus it could be backed up and remain encrypted. Is dm-crypt the simplest option here? None of our servers have a gui. Thanks! jlc
