Hi! I've got three Centos-5.3 machines. one of' em ran the latest updates without trouble. the other two are giving me grief. both giving the same error: # yum update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: ftp.lug.udel.edu * updates: mirror.icpl.org * addons: www.gtlib.gatech.edu * extras: mirror.highspeedweb.net Setting up Update Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package kexec-tools.i386 0:1.102pre-56.el5_3.2 set to be updated ---> Package kernel.i686 0:2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 set to be installed ---> Package audit-libs.i386 0:1.7.7-6.el5_3.3 set to be updated ---> Package kernel-headers.i386 0:2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 set to be updated ---> Package file.i386 0:4.17-15.el5_3.1 set to be updated ---> Package audit-libs-python.i386 0:1.7.7-6.el5_3.3 set to be updated ---> Package kernel-devel.i686 0:2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 set to be installed ---> Package sos.noarch 0:1.7-9.16.el5_3.5 set to be updated ---> Package pango.i386 0:1.14.9-5.el5.centos set to be updated ---> Package audit.i386 0:1.7.7-6.el5_3.3 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: /usr/share/magic.mime for package: httpd --> Finished Dependency Resolution httpd-2.2.3-22.el5.centos.i386 from installed has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: /usr/share/magic.mime is needed by package httpd-2.2.3-22.el5.centos.i386 (installed) Error: Missing Dependency: /usr/share/magic.mime is needed by package httpd-2.2.3-22.el5.centos.i386 (installed) I don't get this: /usr/share/magic/mime exists. it's not trying to install or update httpd. where is it getting this dependency problem from? More importantly, how do I resolve it? Thanks! -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex(a)fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ------------------------ ---- Do you not know? Have you not heard?

Been looking at this script > too long and I wanna go home:) I got it anyway with grep '^/dev.*1$' Wouldn't that match something like /dev/sda11 ? I tried a few variations though didn't figure out the exact syntax(so used to perl regex) to match exactly 1 number at the end of the line. nate

regex help
by Joseph L. Casale 12 May '09

12 May '09

I need a little help, trying to search for a line that begins with /dev and ends with a single digit that I will choose, like 5. I can search for ^/dev and 5$ but I am having trouble forming the combined search pattern using egrep. Any ideas? Thanks! jlc

I've copied the xorg.conf from the working system to the failing one, and got the same result. Thanks for the tips on the KVM - it hadn't occurred to me that it could be a problem. When I can get to rip the place up, I'll attach the monitor directly to the machine and see if that solves it. Thanks everyone for all the suggestions. -- =============================================== Dick Holland work: dholland(a)latentzero.com home: dick(a)xegetix.com (PGP Key ID: 0xE362C267) Skype: dick_at_home http://www.linkedin.com/in/dickholland ===============================================

iso creation with dd
by Al Sparks 12 May '09

12 May '09

I placed a CD in a drive. I ran sudo dd sudo dd if=/dev/cdrom of=HMI_B_Image_File_4-23-09_disk_1.iso It completed. I then transferred the ISO file to an XP machine, use Sonic to burn the ISO file to another CD, and there was a file missing (the largest) in the burned CD. Seems like the data got transferred through the dd, but not a file name. What might I be doing wrong? === Al

CentOS 5.2 nVidia GeForce 7300GS resolution problem
by Dick Holland 12 May '09

12 May '09

I have a Gigabyte nVidia GeForce 7300GS on an Intel DG965WHMKR mobo attached to an LG Flatron LG204WT widescreen monitor. I'm driving the monitor at 1680*1050, and the picture is compressed into the right-hand two-thirds of the screen. The monitor is OK as it's attached via a KVM switch to another machine - also with an nVidia card - and it displays perfectly on that. It looks like some sort of scan rate problem - anyone experienced this? If so, anyone know the solution? TIA -- Dick Holland

ssh ServerTimeOut
by grace rante 12 May '09

12 May '09

There's a debian specific flag for ssh called 'ServerTimeOut' which allows ssh to give up if no data from the server is received for the specified number of seconds. Does anybody know the equivalent option for centos-ssh? thanks, grace
