Intel Atom systems?
by Bill Campbell 27 May '09

27 May '09

Any comments on CentOS 5 on Intel Atom CPUs? I need to build a couple of inexpensive systems that will be used primarily as gateway/firewall systems with OpenVPN, and need recommendations in reliable hardware platforms. These will need two NICs. Bill -- INTERNET: bill(a)celestial.com Bill Campbell; Celestial Software LLC URL: http://www.celestial.com/ PO Box 820; 6641 E.

Upgrade GTK2 from 2.10 to 2.12 ?
by Niki Kovacs 27 May '09

27 May '09

Hi, I'm using CentOS 5.3 on all my desktops, and I really like it. Now I'd like to build a few additional apps that aren't included in any third party repo. Some of them require GTK2 2.12 to build, so I'm considering a (careful) upgrade of this package. General question: 1) how "safe" is it to upgrade this package? To do so, I'd use an SRPM from Fedora. 2) What could I possible "break" on a vanilla CentOS install by doing this? Cheers from the sunny South of France, Niki Kovacs

This list is thought to be for those busy mirror admins, who don't want to follow the centos-mirror list due to too many postings. CentOS-mirror-announce is a very low traffic mailing list. CentOS-mirror-announce is *not* a discussion list. Mirror admins will still be required to announce their newly created mirrors, but if you decide that the traffic gets too much for you, you can subscribe to the mirror-announcement list. The mirror list is subscribed to receive a daily digest of CentOS-mirror-announce, so non-subscribers of the announcement list will not miss any mails going to that list. On behalf of the CentOS team, Ralph Angenendt

What's really nice is that Ladislav, the promoter of FLOSS, is banning me *by the IP* to comment on his DWW, although it was not me the most non-courteous commenter there. What I however did was to post on my blog "Boycott DistroWatch" (with application of Godwin's Law), and he couldn't stand that, it seems. I guess this is called 'rancor' (FR rancune).

I personally find GIMP 2.2 as "too obsolete", and this is because some algorithms are improved in GIMP 2.4 (no, I don't need GIMP 2.6, which is btw somewhat buggier). OTOH, I've found on the forums that GIMP 2.4 would build with GTK+ 2.10.13, whereas CentOS 5 comes with GTK+ 2.10.4 only :-( See: http://centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=11086 As a personal opinion, I suppose Firefox might be the first to be affected by a GTK+2 upgrade, as it seems quite fragile. Stupid question: would it be possible to build those applications (e.g. a newer GIMP, for instance) with STATIC builds of some newer libs, y compris gtk2? This way the newer libs shouldn't be used by anybody else, so they shouldn't break anything, right?

Sparse LUN's
by Daniel Bird 27 May '09

27 May '09

Hi All, I've been chasing down a problem with LUN masking on CentOS5/RHEL5 hosts with QLogic HBA's for a few hours and seem to have got to an impass; Any device (disks in my case) on Non-sequential LUN's are not registered with the OS. This happens across various HBA models and kernel versions. FYI, I'm currently running the latest qlogic qla2xxx drivers (8.02.14.01) against kernel 2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 x86_64 For example if the LUN mask is set to 0,1,2,3 then all is OK and all disks are configured. However, a mask of LUN 0 & 9 will not see the disks on LUN 9. It appears the kernel stops scanning when there is a gap in the LUN list. I read in a number of places how to fix this issue, and indeed here: http://filedownloads.qlogic.com/files/driver/48437/README_qla2xxx2-6U4.htm#… Apparently, I should be able to add a line to modprobe.conf that allows sparse LUNs. So I followed the instructions and added options scsi_mod dev_flags="SUN:CSM200_R:0x040" max_luns=20 and rebuilt initrd. This doesn't seem to work, as only LUN 0 is configured by the OS despite LUN 9 also being unmasked. I've also tried options scsi_mod default_dev_flags=0x040 max_luns=20 in modprobe.conf with no luck [root@host qlogic]# cat /proc/scsi/qla2xxx/1 <snip> SCSI LUN Information: (Id:Lun) * - indicates lun is not registered with the OS. ( 0: 0): Total reqs 144, Pending reqs 0, flags 0x2, Dflags 0x0, 0:0:83 00 ( 0: 9): Total reqs 0, Pending reqs 0, flags 0x0*, Dflags 0x0, 0:0:83 00 [root@sgulfs-data1 ~]# cat /proc/scsi/scsi Attached devices: <snip> Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: SUN Model: CSM200_R Rev: 0616 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 03 I can however do echo "scsi add-single-device 1 0 0 9" > /proc/scsi/scsi to enable LUN 9 and the disk is then configured. I've ended up writing a script in rc.local to enable the LUN , scan LVM and mount the file system which is not ideal. Does anyone have any further insight into how I could get the OS to enable these LUN's on boot thus eliminating the need for my doubtless dirty script? Cheers Dan
