Hey Kudzu, leave that device alone!
by Robert Moskowitz 22 Aug '07

22 Aug '07

How do I get kudzu to still look for new equipment but stop checking to see if some devices are present or not? For example. I have an ATEN USB keyboard/mouse adapter. Sometimes at boot, it is not ready? or something and then kudzu asks if I want that in or not. Of course I want it in!!! I may have to unplug and plug it back in, but don't bother me. I have a similar challenge with the USB ethernet dongle....

rpm command freezing
by joseph blase 22 Aug '07

22 Aug '07

Howdy, If ever somebody here might have encountered this, the rpm -qa commands just stuck for ages on my box ( honestly this is rhel 3 box). I done rebuilding already the /var/lib/rpm/__db* as per KB article but to no avail. Any additional hints what's to look for? One thing I notice w/c I think is weird is that we I losf the process of rpm -qa that's freezing, it's looking somewhere instead of /var/lib/rpm/ I supposed.

I think the > default for these are 'any', but if you have them and they are wrong? @Robert, No I am not using any explicitly configured 'views', nor do I have match-clients or match-destinations set up as I also believe that these are 'any' by default.

CentOS v4.5 and Intel 965/G33BY chipsets - PATA support
by Paul Griffith 22 Aug '07

22 Aug '07

Greetings CentOS users, I have run into a hardware issue with the Intel 965 chipset. It appears that the latest kernel doesn't support the Marvell PATA controller. I can kickstart the computer, but after the OS is installed the DVD drive can't be accessed. There are patches against 2.6.18 for the Marvell PATA controller here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/16/157 There is bug report ported for RHEL 5.0 and I assume this will apply to CentOS 5 also. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=237372 What are my options other that to try to patch the current kernel (2.6.9-55.0.2.EL) ? We have a lab of 24 computer to push out before the start of the term (Sept 5/07) ... joy joy Thanks Paul

Solved: HTTP user directory permissions - Centos 5 post-install
by Robert Moskowitz 22 Aug '07

22 Aug '07

The problem was permissions on /home/user not /home/user/public_html I have not spent the time looking into details, but I booted up the old server (fortunately I had not blown away the drive content yet), and looked at all the directory tree. The permissions for /home/user was drwx--x--x The user that I was using on the new system was the one created by the post-install, first boot process. Its permissions were: drwx------ Other users that I created with drwxx-rx-r So I changed the new system's user directory permissions to match that of the old system, and everything is working. Just one more footnote about installing a new Centos 5 system, check the user directory permissions.

RE: [CentOS] SATA vs. SAS

Why do you say that SATA arrays are less reliable? I have used both SATA and SCSI raid and have had drive failures on both. Recovery from the failures seems to be more a matter of the raid implementation than the interface type. -- Bowie
