Need to do some careful moving...
by Robert Moskowitz 27 Jun '07

27 Jun '07

When I built this new Centos 5 drive, I copied over much of my old data using cp, and did not use the -preserve option. Ouch. I need those file create dates so that documents and such sort properly, historically. I recovered much of my stuff from a tar built back in mid-May (but I missed that the tar backup ended abnormally, as I was tar-ing to a USB attached drive formatted FAT32, and at 4Gb, it stopped). Now I want to copy all of my newer files into this recovered directory. The -u option of cp and mv will do the wrong thing, of course. I want to only copy files that are NOT present in the recovered directory. I will of course still be stuck with a lot of files with a Jun 18 date that were created between the backup date and Jun 18, but at least I will be better off.... Perhaps I do a mv -f from the recovered to the misdated directory? Being careful to protect those few files that HAVE really been modified since the backup? Oh, I am talking about 30k files here.....

CentOS 5 & USB Kickstart?
by Jiann-Ming Su 26 Jun '07

26 Jun '07

Is anybody else having problems with CentOS 5 not loading the usb drivers for kickstart installations? I'm passing "linux ks=hd:sdb1:/ks.cfg," but I get a message saying it can't find the ks.cfg file and I should enter another path. I use the exact same boot options with CentOS 4 without any problems. What am I missing with CentOS 5? Thanks for any tips. -- Jiann-Ming Su "I have to decide between two equally frightening options.

TinyCA2 on rpmforge EL4 but not EL5
by Robert Moskowitz 26 Jun '07

26 Jun '07

I want to install TinyCA2 on my Centos5 setup. I had a real learning experience the last time around (last year, July) and in the end, I got the repo down from Dag's site and was cool. Now I am on Centos 5 and no TinyCA2. Can I just download the EL4 rpm from: http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el4/en/i386/dag/repodata/repoview/tinyca2-0-0.7.5-2… and do a yum localinstall ? Or do I have to wait for it to appear as an EL5 rpm?

Battery status indicator in CentOS 4.4
by Andrew Allen 26 Jun '07

26 Jun '07

I've got CentOS 4.4 installed on 3 machines - two laptops and a PC. Only one, a HP Omnibook 900, shows the graphical battery status indicator (in the bottom right of the screen), but the other laptop (a new Dell Inspiron 1501) doesn't show it. Furthermore, the command /usr/bin/apm gets the response 'no apm support in kernel' - I've tried yum-updating the kernel and installing apm but to no avail. Any suggestions please as it's obviously very useful/necessary to have a battery indicator! Andy

Troubles with CentOS5 and 3ware RAID controller
by Luc de Louw 26 Jun '07

26 Jun '07

Folks, Since approx. a half year I have run two servers with CentOS4, all was running very stable. Then I upgraded to CentOS5 (fresh install). The servers are running quite unstable since the upgrade. The system is freezing after short uptime. I suspect the driver for the 3ware controller, because I got such error messages: 3w-xxxx: scsi0: Character ioctl (0x1f) timed out, resetting card. 3w-xxxx: scsi0: Character ioctl (0x1f) timed out, resetting card. 3w-xxxx: scsi0: Character ioctl (0x1f) timed out, resetting card.

Any hints are very welcome. Thanks, Luc

vncviewer package wit hcentos 5
by Jerry Geis 26 Jun '07

26 Jun '07

I have xkeybindings running just fine on centos 5. I have vncviewer running in full screen mode showing another PC. When vncviewer is running is running it seems to override my xkeybindings. Is there a way to tell vncviewer to not bind to any keys?? The only keys I am binding is on the Keypad 3,4,6, 9 and Enter. Nothing that vncviewer uses anyway. How can I still have my xkeybindings active with vncviewer running? Thanks, Jerry

Wireless networking in CentOS 4.4
by Andrew Allen 26 Jun '07

26 Jun '07

Trying to set up wireless networking with CentOS 4.4 on a (new Dell) laptop and have looked at http://www.ces.clemson.edu/linux/fc2- ipw2200.shtml and http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php? topic_id=2532&forum=30 regarding use of ipw2200, which is included in the kernel. The problem is that it doesn't appear to be actually installed/loaded because the Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG driver doesn't appear in the drop- down list under Devices > New > Wireless Connection in system-config- network. Also /sbin/lsmod | grep ipw doesn't produce anything - so I'm pretty baffled! Any suggestions please? Andy

Getting JPilot working
by Robert Moskowitz 26 Jun '07

26 Jun '07

I am trying to get JPilot working. I have configed gnome-pilot-applet, but it is not talking to the USB connected Treo650. My Treo has my name as the user, so from the applet, I see also a userid (my UID on this system it seems). I try to put that on the Treo and nothing happens. I have enabled the Backup Conduit. I am using /dev/pilot, which shows up when my Treo is connected via its USB syncing cable. In JPilot in settings, I specify /dev/pilot I go install user and install the same user as in the pilot-applet. I click on sync and press the sync button on the cable and I watch all the files get backed up to my /MyPilot directory (used from pilot-applet). But NOTHING shows up in J-Pilot. Everything is still there on the Treo.... Any thoughts? /var/log/messages shows the following in conjunction with a Sync: Jun 26 10:55:24 nc4010 kernel: usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 11 Jun 26 10:55:24 nc4010 kernel: usb 1-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Jun 26 10:55:24 nc4010 kernel: visor 1-2:1.0: Handspring Visor / Palm OS convert er detected Jun 26 10:55:24 nc4010 kernel: usb 1-2: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB0 Jun 26 10:55:24 nc4010 kernel: usb 1-2: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB1 Jun 26 10:55:47 nc4010 kernel: usb 1-2: USB disconnect, address 11 Jun 26 10:55:47 nc4010 kernel: visor 1-2:1.0: device disconnected Sync runs nicely, the files on the Treo are backed up to the director specified in
