5.x install - loses display when launching anaconda
by Tom Lanyon 06 Dec '07

06 Dec '07

Hi all, Trying to install 5.0 or 5.1 (i386 or x86_64) on a new system from an install DVD. As soon as the installer launches anaconda, the screen shuts off and from this point I'm unable to switch to any other tty. This is an Intel core2duo machine on an Intel P35 chipset motherboard, Geforce 8400GS video card connected to a BenQ 20" widescreen LCD. Any ideas what could cause this behaviour or how to debug further (obviously I can't see any error messages as my virtual consoles are no loner available)? I think I'll try installing via a serial console when I get home and see if I have more success. Regards, Tom

But 222.fax.foo.com is not. Nor is sales.fax.foo.com or 2342.fax.foo.com, etc. the design here is that the fax server will dial an extension and on the header page indicate the fax is for user (user(a)ext.fax.foo.com) This is what all the documentation points to.

rsync 5.1 base repo question
by Robert Moskowitz 06 Dec '07

06 Dec '07

I have built my repo by copying the content of the ISO images, maintaining the date. When I test with: rsync -avun rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5.1/os/i386/ \ --exclude=debug/ /repos/centos/5.1/os/i386 the only file listed is: CentOS/yum-kernel-module-1.0.4-3.el5.centos.2.noarch.rpm Which I did not get from the ISOs. but if I leave off the -u option, the list is VERY long. Why? Also do I need to use the --delete option to get rid of rpms replaced with newer versions?

screen + mutt terminal issues.
by Steven Haigh 06 Dec '07

06 Dec '07

Hi all, I'm trying to fix a display issue when using mutt inside a screen session. This issue came to my attention when the following posts hit my mailbox: 10723 Mário Gamito [CentOS] Another question Wed, Dec 05, 2007 ( 2.4K 10724 nate Re: [CentOS] Anyone using sendmail? Tue, Dec 04, 2007 ( 4.6K) The accent in Mario's name (post 10723 in my mailbox) seems to cause havok with the terminal emulation in mutt. I've experimented with the different terminal emulations (xterm, ansi, screen, linux, xterm-color etc) and found that: ansi = garbled screen. xterm = displays layout correctly, however highlight bars (in the index screen within mutt) only drawns a background colour when text is also drawn. xterm-color = displayis an issue is shown when using the up/down arrows over his posts. This corrupts the layout of the screen. usually a blank line is displayed below Mario's name. screen = same as xterm-color linux = same as xterm-color Does anyone know how I might be able to correct this? Is this an issue with screen or the termcap or maybe even mutt? -- Steven Haigh Email: netwiz(a)crc.id.au Web: http://www.crc.id.au Phone: (03) 9001 6090 - 0412 935 897 "Do not meddle in the affairs of UNIX, for it is subtle and quick to dump core." -- Anon.

Anyone using sendmail?
by Fajar Priyanto 06 Dec '07

06 Dec '07

Hi all, Does sendmail support virtual-non-unix-users setup? Any URL about it? I tried to ask in #sendmail channel, but nobody answered. I google around, but, all url only talks about virtual domain and mapping to unix users.

Re: [CentOS] Re: SCSI bad block table display

Well it's not a clearly defined option, but it allows you to request all kinds of SCSI VPD pages from the disks and controllers, I was able to get a dump once don't remember the vpd page id I used to get it though, but I think it was an example in the man page... -Ross -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org <centos-bounces(a)centos.org> To: CentOS mailing list <centos(a)centos.org> Sent: Wed Dec 05 19:21:14 2007 Subject: RE: [CentOS] Re: SCSI bad block table display From: Ross S.

While that seems to be on the right track it does not appear to dump/display the bad block table. hec _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos ______________________________________________________________________ This e-mail, and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.

yum update for 5.0 ==> 5.1
by fred smith 06 Dec '07

06 Dec '07

I have read multipe messages here from people upgrading from 5.0 to 5.1, presumably using "yum update" to do the deed. When I do "yum update" on my (I think) fully updated Centos 5 system I get no updates. Am I just being impatient (i.e., the updates haven't yet been pushed out) or am I somehow missing them?

binary upgrade 5.0 to 5.1?
by Dave 05 Dec '07

05 Dec '07

Hello, I've googled for this but haven't found an answer. I've got a 5.0 box that i'd like to take to 5.1. I believe this is possible as i did an upgrade from 4.x to 5.0 but can't remember what i did. Ideally i'd like to avoid any downtime. Thanks. Dave.
