I have 2 video devices LML33 and PV155 $ lspci 06:00.0 Multimedia video controller: Zoran Corporation ZR36057PQC Video cutting chipset (rev 02) 07:08.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capture (rev 11) 07:08.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture (rev 11) 07:09.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capture (rev 11) 07:09.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture (rev 11) 07:0a.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capture (rev 11) 07:0a.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture (rev 11) 07:0b.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capture (rev 11) 07:0b.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture (rev 11) $ udevinfo -q path -n /dev/video0 /class/video4linux/video0 $ udevinfo -a -p /class/video4linux/video0 Udevinfo starts with the device specified by the devpath and then walks up the chain of parent devices. It prints for every device found, all possible attributes in the udev rules key format. A rule to match, can be composed by the attributes of the device and the attributes from one single parent device. looking at device '/class/video4linux/video0': KERNEL=="video0" SUBSYSTEM=="video4linux" SYSFS{name}=="LML33_0_" SYSFS{dev}=="81:0" $ udevinfo -q path -n /dev/video1 no record for 'video1' in database $ udevinfo -q path -n /dev/video2 no record for 'video2' in database $ udevinfo -q path -n /dev/video3 no record for 'video3' in database $ udevinfo -q path -n /dev/video4 no record for 'video4' in database The problem is sometimes when I boot the LML33 is /dev/video0 and sometimes /dev/video4 I tried a udev rule SUBSYSTEM=="video4linux", SYSFS{name}=="LML33_0_",SYMLINK="lml33" but it doesn't work What do I need to do to get consistant device naming? I am using CentOS 5.3, kernel 2.6.18-92.1.22.el5.centos.plus, and udev-095-14.20.el5_3 package Thanks Richard Ray

files not showing up in an nfs mounted filesysetm in timely manner
by Blackburn, Marvin 31 Jul '09

31 Jul '09

We have and nfs mount from a windows pc nfs server. A file is created on the server, but can take as long as 50 seconds to become available on the client. We are running Centos 5.2 (final), using NFS version 3. Is there anything we can do from the client side to see the file more quickly. The files are very small, usually about 1k _____________________________________ "He's no failure. He's not dead yet." William Lloyd George

Somewhat OT: OpenOffice.org Headless issues as non-root user
by Sergio Belkin 31 Jul '09

31 Jul '09

Hi, I've installed recently OpenOffice.org 3.1 on Centos 5.3. I use OOo in headless mode. I have no problem when running as root, but I'd prefer run it as non-root user (oooserver user). When I run the script in debug mode this is the output: sh -x /tmp/ooo-headless-nonroot start + . /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions ++ TEXTDOMAIN=initscripts ++ umask 022 ++ PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin ++ export PATH ++ '[' -z '' ']' ++ COLUMNS=80 ++ '[' -z '' ']' +++ /sbin/consoletype ++ CONSOLETYPE=pty ++ '[' -f /etc/sysconfig/i18n -a -z '' ']' ++ . /etc/profile.d/lang.sh +++ sourced=0 +++ for langfile in /etc/sysconfig/i18n '$HOME/.i18n' +++ '[' -f /etc/sysconfig/i18n ']' +++ . /etc/sysconfig/i18n ++++ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 ++++ SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 +++ sourced=1 +++ for langfile in /etc/sysconfig/i18n '$HOME/.i18n' +++ '[' -f /root/.i18n ']' +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ '[' 1 = 1 ']' +++ '[' -n en_US.UTF-8 ']' +++ export LANG +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LC_ADDRESS +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LC_CTYPE +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LC_COLLATE +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LC_IDENTIFICATION +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LC_MEASUREMENT +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LC_MESSAGES +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LC_MONETARY +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LC_NAME +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LC_NUMERIC +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LC_PAPER +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LC_TELEPHONE +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LC_TIME +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LC_ALL +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LANGUAGE +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset LINGUAS +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ unset _XKB_CHARSET ++++ /sbin/consoletype +++ consoletype=pty +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ '[' -n '' ']' +++ '[' -n en_US.UTF-8 ']' +++ case $LANG in +++ '[' xterm = linux ']' +++ unset SYSFONTACM SYSFONT +++ unset sourced +++ unset langfile ++ '[' -z '' ']' ++ '[' -f /etc/sysconfig/init ']' ++ . /etc/sysconfig/init +++ BOOTUP=color +++ GRAPHICAL=yes +++ RES_COL=60 +++ MOVE_TO_COL='echo -en \033[60G' +++ SETCOLOR_SUCCESS='echo -en \033[0;32m' +++ SETCOLOR_FAILURE='echo -en \033[0;31m' +++ SETCOLOR_WARNING='echo -en \033[0;33m' +++ SETCOLOR_NORMAL='echo -en \033[0;39m' +++ LOGLEVEL=3 +++ PROMPT=yes +++ AUTOSWAP=no ++ '[' pty = serial ']' ++ '[' color '!=' verbose ']' ++ INITLOG_ARGS=-q ++ __sed_discard_ignored_files='/$~\|\.bak\|\.orig\|\.rpmnew\|\.rpmorig\|\.rpmsave$$/d' + ooffice=/opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice.bin + prog='OpenOffice.org Headless' + pidfile=/var/run/ooo-headless/ooo-headless.pid + lockfile=/var/lock/subsys/ooo-headless + OPTIONS='-headless -nofirststartwizard -nologo -norestore -invisible -accept=socket,host=localhost,port=2002;urp;StarOffice.Service' + RETVAL=0 + case "$1" in + start + echo -n 'Starting OpenOffice.org Headless: ' Starting OpenOffice.org Headless: + su oooserver '-c /opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice.bin -headless -nofirststartwizard -nologo -norestore -invisible -accept=socket,host=localhost,port=2002;urp;StarOffice.Service >/dev/null 2>&1 &' End oif Output You can see the ps output too: root 19432 0.0 0.2 4908 1228 pts/0 S+ 10:46 0:00 | \_ su oooserver -c /opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice.bin -headless -nofirststartwizard -nologo -norestore -invisible -accept=socket,host=localhost,port=2002;urp;StarOffice.Service >/dev/null 2>&1 & 500 19433 0.0 0.2 4484 1040 ?

X Crashing on 64 Bit CentOS
by Clint Dilks 31 Jul '09

31 Jul '09

Hi People, I have a user who is regularly having X Crash. This seemed to happen once a month but has increased to once or twice a week. It doesn't seem to be application specific. The only information about whats causing the crash is from the X log. But this doesn't really give much to go on. Backtrace: 0: /usr/bin/Xorg(xf86SigHandler+0x71) [0x4865b1] 1: /lib64/libc.so.6 [0x3475430280] 2: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/libfb.so(fbCopyAreammx+0x274) [0x2b917c4dbe14] 3: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/libfb.so(fbComposite+0x5db) [0x2b917c4cc65b] 4: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/libxaa.so(XAAComposite+0x2ac) [0x2b917c71d94c] 5: /usr/bin/Xorg [0x51379d] 6: /usr/bin/Xorg [0x50fb54] 7: /usr/bin/Xorg [0x5032ef] 8: /usr/bin/Xorg(Dispatch+0x1ca) [0x449c9a] 9: /usr/bin/Xorg(main+0x44e) [0x4325ee] 10: /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf4) [0x347541d974] Any suggestions as to how I diagnose this further? I have just applied the latest update

ssh -X not shutting down
by Anne Wilson 31 Jul '09

31 Jul '09

Occasionally I ssh into my server to check something, and if it needs the gui I use 'ssh -X'. Until recently there was no problem. Exiting simply dropped me back to my local konsole. Lately, though, the shutdown seems to hang, and I have to close the session. Any thoughts? Anne -- New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org Just found a cool new feature?

Concerned 3 im clients were installed as dependencies.
by Rob Townley 30 Jul '09

30 Jul '09

Worried, ran yum -y update expecting to get the bind update but am concerned as to why the following instant messaging packages were installed as dependencies. All of the following are instant messaging related except cyrus-sasl. Jul 30 17:00:49 Installed: cyrus-sasl-md5-2.1.22-4.i386 Jul 30 17:00:49 Installed: meanwhile-1.0.2-5.el5.i386 Jul 30 17:00:50 Installed: libsilc-1.0.2-2.fc6.i386 Jul 30 17:00:54 Installed: libpurple-2.5.5-3.el5.i386 Jul 30 17:00:58 Installed: libpurple-perl-2.5.5-3.el5.i386 Did anybody else notice the install of im clients on practically headless non-gui systems? Any explanation?

Any more details on Lance? (just curious; no pressure)
by MHR 30 Jul '09

30 Jul '09

A friend of mine sent me this link: http://linux.slashdot.org/story/09/07/30/130249/CentOS-Project-Administrato… I went to the main page and read the letter and the "Facts." Are there any more details, mainly along the lines of CentOS sticking around - I know you folks all work really hard on this, and you know better than me how many others depend on you - but - there's that little specter of doubt yelling in my virtual ears (has to yell 'cuz it's really tiny) and I'd like nothing better (well, almost) than to gag it. Thanks for all you do, and for keeping us all informed. mhr
