kernel-vm.i686 5.0-->5.1 "Error: Missing Dependency: kernel-headers is needed by package glibc-headers"
by John Thomas 08 Dec '07

08 Dec '07

Cough, cough, cough (I have a bit of a cold, please excuse me) Thanks for the great CentOS. I assume the following means I need to humbly ask for the kernel-vm for 5.1, but I am not certain. If so, I hereby humbly ask. --> Running transaction check --> Processing Dependency: kernel-headers for package: glibc-headers --> Processing Dependency: kernel-headers >= 2.2.1 for package: glibc-headers --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Missing Dependency: kernel-headers >= 2.2.1 is needed by package glibc-headers Error: Missing Dependency: kernel-headers is needed by package glibc-headers CentOS5[root@somevbox ~]# rpm -qa | grep kernel kernel-vm-headers-2.6.18-8.1.10.el5.vm.c5 kernel-vm-2.6.18-8.1.15.el5 kernel-vm-2.6.18-8.1.14.el5.centos.plus kernel-vm-devel-2.6.18-8.1.15.el5 -- Sincerely, John Thomas

packages downgraded when going from 5.0 to 5.1
by Nicolas Thierry-Mieg 08 Dec '07

08 Dec '07

Hello, I have a few packages where the latest updated version in 5.0 is greater than the current 5.1 version. Here is the list: package, installed version (from 5.0 updates), available (in 5.1) flac 1.1.2-28.el5_0.1 1.1.2-27 flac-devel 1.1.2-28.el5_0.1 1.1.2-27 hpijs 1.6.7-4.1.el5.3 1.6.7-4.1 libsane-hpaio 1.6.7-4.1.el5.3 1.6.7-4.1 thunderbird 1.5.0.12-5.el5.centos 1.5.0.12-3.el5.centos I use mirrors.ircam.fr, and apt+synaptic but I don't think that's the reason (except perhaps for the hp stuff?) Is something wrong on my side? If not, should I downgrade those packages to the 5.1 versions? Thanks in advance cheers, Nicolas

Sendmail: timeout waiting for input from local during Draining Input
by David Mackintosh 08 Dec '07

08 Dec '07

Hi folks, I've recently replaced a RedHat EL 3.x system with a CentOS 5 system (fully yum'd as of Tuesday). This was a full-pave install, although we did copy the sendmail.mc from the original system. Now I get a lot of this in my logs: Dec 7 11:47:38 mail sendmail[20117]: lB7Gl6w0020116: timeout waiting for input from local during Draining Input The only thing even remotely credible is a Sendmail Known Bugs page which suggests it is a chatty local delivery agent, but since this is happening with outbound messages I don't think I believe this. Does anyone have any ideas what Sendmail is trying to tell me here? -- /\oo/\ / /()\ \ David Mackintosh | dave(a)xdroop.com | http://www.xdroop.com

tick_divider
by Scott McClanahan 08 Dec '07

08 Dec '07

Just installed CentOS 5.1 on VMware ESX and am attempting to play with the newly added tick_divider feature. It doesn't seem to be making any difference in the number of timer interrupts though. I set tick_divider=10 which should reduce the number of timer interrupts to 100. I wrote a nasty little scripts that queries /proc/interrupts every 1 second and still see an increase each second in about 1000 interrupts. The server is: uname -srvmpio Linux 2.6.18-53.1.4.el5 #1 SMP Fri Nov 30 00:45:16 EST 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Obviously not running 64bit. Only one cpu has been allocated to this vm. Has anybody else used this successfully?

I can ssh into a remote machine. I can start X on that machine with startx How do I then start firefox on that machine (from the ssh prompt) and have it display on my machine in my office. So I want to be using firefox on the remote machine but displaying the screen output from firefox in my office. Both boxes are running centos 5. how is that done? Jerry

lmsensors sensors.conf file for gigabyte GA7N400 Pro2
by fred smith 08 Dec '07

08 Dec '07

Having done my fresh 5.0 install a couple months ago I'm slowly getting things back in to working condition. Decided last night to try setting up lmsensors. Got it all set up (modules, etc taken care of) and it runs and reports values, but some of 'em a clearly wrong with the default sensors.conf Trying to use the old sensors.conf I used on Centos 4 produces even more whacked-out results, so I guess that's not the solution. Perusing the documentation, it seems that one can configure it properly only if one knows a lot more about the hardware than one typically knows. So, I'm wondering if anyone out there has a working config file for a Gigabyte GA-7N400 Pro2 motherboard that works on Centos 5.1? here's what I get with it as it stands right now: it8712-isa-0290 Adapter: ISA adapter VCore 1: +1.68 V (min = +1.42 V, max = +1.57 V) ALARM VCore 2: +2.54 V (min = +2.40 V, max = +2.61 V) +3.3V: +3.23 V (min = +3.14 V, max = +3.47 V) +5V: +4.99 V (min = +4.74 V, max = +5.25 V) +12V: +11.90 V (min = +11.39 V, max = +12.61 V) -12V: -15.70 V (min = -12.63 V, max = -11.41 V) ALARM -5V: -8.10 V (min = -5.26 V, max = -4.77 V) ALARM Stdby: +4.57 V (min = +4.76 V, max = +5.24 V) ALARM VBat: +4.08 V fan1: 2556 RPM (min = 0 RPM, div = 8) fan2: 2083 RPM (min = 3013 RPM, div = 8) ALARM fan3: 1591 RPM (min = 3013 RPM, div = 8) ALARM M/B Temp: +30°C (low = +15°C, high = +40°C) sensor = thermistor CPU Temp: +26°C (low = +15°C, high = +45°C) sensor = thermistor Temp3: +57°C (low = +15°C, high = +45°C) sensor = diode That -12v at -15.70 is pretty obviously wrong, as is the -5 at -8.10, and the other voltages getting ALARMs are probably wrong too, though not by as much. The MB and CPU temps shown by the BIOS are 29 and 53, so that 26 shown as CPU temp here is likely bogus. One wonders if the Temp3 is actually the CPU temp instead. (my old config used Temp2 for that, tho). Advice will be appreciated.

I just checked on my CentOS 4.5 box and: [root@fraud default]# which vi alias vi='vim' /usr/bin/vim but on my CentOS 5.1 box root gets: [root@bend etc]# which vi /bin/vi while users get: [dave@bend ~]# which vi vi: aliased to vim So vim is probably correctly installed on the 5.1 box but root no longer gets an alias to it. This is actually correct since root should be able to log in and have full functionality with just the programs in /bin, /sbin, etc. In particular, root shouldn't be dependent on anything under /usr.
