installation help
by Kevin Kempter 30 Nov '08

30 Nov '08

Hi All; I'm trying to instal CentOS on my new laptop but I've run into a few issues. It's a Dell Precision M6400 - I'm installing CentOS 5 (64bit) running KDE I have 3 issues: 1) I cannot get the wireless to work 2) I cannot get sound to work 3) I cannot get the full screen resolution I can go to administration --> display and under the 'Hardwae' tab I can configure the display as a generic or as a Dell 1920x1200 but no matter what I choose the 'Settings' tab only lets me choose a max of 1400x1050 I can get the wireless and sound to work in Fedora 10 but I'm not sure how to tell specifically what devices they are.. I thought I could use Fedora 10 to help debug the sound & wireless. Thanks in advance for any help ...

IMAP rule problem
by Anne Wilson 29 Nov '08

29 Nov '08

I have a problem with local mail on this netbook. I'm sure it's something obvious, but I could use another brain's input. Fri, 2008-11-28 13:15:27 - TCP Packet - Source:192.168.0.7,58711 Destination:88.97.17.41,143 - [IMAP rule match] Fri, 2008-11-28 13:15:27 - TCP Packet - Source:192.168.0.7,58711 Destination:192.168.0.40,143 - [IMAP rule not match] The first one delivers mail through my Roaming profile, using googlemail's smtp. The second one sends to my own smtp server for local delivery, something that's happening all the time from other boxes. Since my brain is reluctant to get in gear over this, where should I be looking for the problem? Anne

That address (192.168.0.7) is a dhcp address, which must have been my laptop wifi connection, and since I had no wired connection at the time, if there had been anything really wrong I wouldn't have been able to use my mail, and I would have known about it. It probably represents a fleeting problem. > Of course the non-public numbers don't go outside your network, so > there may be NATting going on (specifically in the non- public --> > public case) that's obscuring the issue. > Since it's the router, the commonality seems to rule that out. > By the way, you seem to have asked about this back in March. > Did I ask something similar? I don't recall - but then I don't recall what I had for breakfast yesterday. I'll look back and see if I can find anything. All the same, thanks to your breaking my circle of thinking, I don't think there's really a problem. If it occurs again I'll look more closely. BTW, your reply-to plays havoc with normal list behaviour. Anne

Does anyone here have a good working knowledge of the command line interface to Bugzilla? If so, please contact me off-list as this is OT here, but my inquiry on the bugzilla list met with silence.... Thanks. Mark Hull-Richter Linux/C Developer

isw_xxxxxxxx missing?
by Davide Cittaro 29 Nov '08

29 Nov '08

Hi all, I've installed CentOS 5.2 on a sun x2250. The installer goes fine and I can setup my root with lvm on /dev/ mapper/isw_xxxxxxxx_Volume0, that is the hardware RAID1 for two disks available. As the system boots lvm complains of a duplicate PV and decides to use /dev/sda, so the physical disk, not the raid device... I see with surprise that the raid device is missing! Needless to say, in a couple of days and reboots I've completely messed up the filesystem and the bootloader... Is there a way to fix this? d

how to connect to a switch with a serial cable? - what command(s) to use?
by Rudi Ahlers 28 Nov '08

28 Nov '08

Hi all, I see one of our switches doesn't want to respond to HTTPS or SSH commands, and I know it's connected to a server via a serial cable. I'm 3 hours drive from that server at the moment, so how can I connect to it from the Linux server, via SSH? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers

Correct way to change I/O scheduler in a iSCSI dev
by Santi Saez 28 Nov '08

28 Nov '08

Hi, What's the correct way to change configuration parameters for an iSCSI device? For example I/O scheduler, max_sectors_kb, etc... I could add commands to the S99local script: echo noop > /sys/block/sdb/queue/scheduler echo 64 > /sys/block/sdb/queue/max_hw_sectors_kb Unfortunately, iSCSI device names might change from sdb to, say, sdc (server reboot, iSCSI target reconnection). If this happens, customizations would be lost or applied to a different device. Any workaround for this using centOS? sysctl, udev, anything else? It also may be applied to Fiber Channel devices.. Thanks! -- Santi Saez http://woop.es
