Trouble brewing in dmesg... any ideas?

Hello fellow listers! I've got some errors starting to crop up on one of my CentOS5 boxes. Below is a transcript: vi S 048C664F 2600 4176 2837 (NOTLB) f1c87b68 00000082 c30229e0 048c664f 00000e65 f1c87b18 00000007 f7bacaa0 f7d97aa0 048c72fc 00000e65 00000cad 00000003 f7bacbac c302a9e0 c042daae f7d20000 f1c87b70 00000286 ffffffff 00000000 00000000 00ed957a 00ed957a Call Trace: [<c042daae>] lock_timer_base+0x15/0x2f [<c0604dfc>] schedule_timeout+0x71/0x8c [<c042d1d3>] process_timeout+0x0/0x5 [<c04803a8>] do_select+0x371/0x3cb [<c048092b>] __pollwait+0x0/0xb2 [<c04202b1>] default_wake_function+0x0/0xc [<c04202b1>] default_wake_function+0x0/0xc [<c06046b9>] schedule+0x90d/0x9ba [<c0436066>] autoremove_wake_function+0xd/0x2d [<c042daae>] lock_timer_base+0x15/0x2f [<c042dbbf>] __mod_timer+0x99/0xa3 [<c04d7a49>] blk_plug_device+0x5e/0x85 [<f884e2e2>] make_request+0x520/0x52a [raid1] [<f8860679>] journal_stop+0x1b0/0x1ba [jbd] [<c041fa31>] enqueue_task+0x29/0x39 [<c041f8de>] task_rq_lock+0x31/0x58 [<c04202a7>] try_to_wake_up+0x371/0x37b [<c041ea84>] __wake_up_common+0x2f/0x53 [<c041f871>] __wake_up+0x2a/0x3d [<c04806ab>] core_sys_select+0x2a9/0x2ca [<c052e771>] n_tty_receive_buf+0xc5e/0xcab [<c041ea84>] __wake_up_common+0x2f/0x53 [<c041f871>] __wake_up+0x2a/0x3d [<c0529c5e>] tty_wakeup+0x44/0x48 [<c04361fd>] remove_wait_queue+0x16/0x25 [<c041f871>] __wake_up+0x2a/0x3d [<c0529b9d>] tty_ldisc_deref+0x50/0x5f [<c0480c72>] sys_select+0x9a/0x180 [<c0404eff>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb ======================= There are others with various app names besides vi including httpd, named, sftp-server, etc.. Is this an imminent hardware failure? Do I have kernel issues? I've checked the system with lm_sensors and temps are perfectly normal. Also, performance and operation seems to be fine. Even with these errors, my services are running without any hiccups. HELP! :-) Tim Nelson Systems/Network Support Rockbochs Inc. (218)727-4332 x105

Single crontab entry for every 15 minutes beginning & ending on the hour
by Jeff 18 Jun '08

18 Jun '08

We have a cron job that needs to run every 15 minutes throughout business hours. The first run is at 8:00, the last run is at 17:00. Is it possible to specify this time range in a single line? */15 8-17 * * 1-5 will run 8:00 - 17:45. That's not what I want. Likewise */15 8-16 * * 1-5 will have the last run at 16:45, not 17:00 This is more of a brainteaser than a real problem. I can easily configure the job with multiple entries, but I'm a little obsessive-compulsive so I want to try to do it with one entry. # rpm -qa vixie-cron vixie-cron-4.1-49.EL4 -- Jeff

using windows ad accounts for centos 5
by Isaac Gonzalez 18 Jun '08

18 Jun '08

Hi I read and used the article http://blog.wazollc.com/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=2 to authenticate my ad accounts when logging on to cent 5...however, once I edit the nsswitch.conf file, I can't even log on as root or any local users anymore. Kinit seems to initialize fine doing a kinit username(a)MYDOMAIN.COM , however doing a getent passwd adusername ....it just sits there in the shell and does nothing. I actually had to put all files back to where they were before the change to even be able to login locally or use sudo. I followed the steps line by line on this article but get stuck everytime....anyone has an idea or a better documented way of achieving what I am trying to do , please let me know. Thanks, Isaac

rpmfusion status?
by Frank Cox 18 Jun '08

18 Jun '08

Unless I've missed something (which is possible) there hasn't been any "public progress announcements" regarding rpmfusion in the past several weeks. Is there anything new to report? My ulterior motive is that I would love to have the convenience of a one-stop rpm shop for Centos/RHEL and Fedora, and it's my understanding that's what rpmfusion is intended to be... -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com

Hi, I saw there's one "Commercial Support" in "Support" menu on CentOS main page, but it's blank. Actually I'm looking for the commercial support for CentOS, is there anyone or organization which is doing this? Thank you very much. -- Best regards, Daniel

Hi, I am looking for the rpm for gparted. I don't want the live CD, just the rpm to install on my system. I frequently have to format drives [mostly usb drives]. Any suggestion? -- Thanks http://www.911networks.com When the network has to work
