Is there anyone here using evolution with MIME digests successfully? MIME digests don't work OK with thunderbird so far.

OS: CentOS 5 x86. Hi, I have installed RealPlayer via RealPlayer10GOLD.bin (no rpm). Does anyone know how can I uninstall it except from manually erasing files myself?

CentOS 5 + Nforce 4 SLI Intel SATA problems
by Varian 04 May '07

04 May '07

I've been having an extremely hard time using the on board SATA controller on my nvidia based board. I have two 160gig Maxtor SATA drives attached to the on board controller, setup as software raid0. The problem is the array is extremely unreliable, where I'm getting constant I/O errors like: sd 0:0:0:0: SCSI error: return code = 0x00040000 end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 20010007 sd 0:0:0:0: SCSI error: return code = 0x00040000 end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 20010000 I've wiped and scanned the drives with the Maxtor diagnostic utilities which passes both drives with flying colors. I've had no issues when i was doing the same thing with Suse 10.1, the same setup was 100% reliable. I also have two 160gig Maxtor ATA133 drive in the machine on the on board PATA controller and they work totally reliable. I'm wondering if anyone else is having a problem with on board nvidia sata controller thats part of the nforce4 chipset? btw its using the sata_nv driver. Also when I reboot it works fine for a few hours and then begins to act up again. Its not a heat problem, the drives have a working fan directly blowing on the drives, and the case its in has very good airflow. ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x9F0 ctl 0xBF2 bmdma 0xD000 irq 193 ata2: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x970 ctl 0xB72 bmdma 0xD008 irq 193 scsi0 : sata_nv ata1: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) ata1.00: ATA-7, max UDMA/133, 320173056 sectors: LBA48 ata1.00: ata1: dev 0 multi count 16 ata1.00: configured for UDMA/133 scsi1 : sata_nv ata2: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) ata2.00: ATA-7, max UDMA/133, 320173056 sectors: LBA48 ata2.00: ata2: dev 0 multi count 16 ata2.00: configured for UDMA/133 Vendor: ATA Model: Maxtor 6Y160M0 Rev: YAR5 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 05 SCSI device sda: 320173056 512-byte hdwr sectors (163929 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back SCSI device sda: 320173056 512-byte hdwr sectors (163929 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back sda: sda1 sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi disk sda Vendor: ATA Model: Maxtor 6Y160M0 Rev: YAR5 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 05 SCSI device sdb: 320173056 512-byte hdwr sectors (163929 MB) sdb: Write Protect is off sdb: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sdb: drive cache: write back SCSI device sdb: 320173056 512-byte hdwr sectors (163929 MB) sdb: Write Protect is off sdb: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sdb: drive cache: write back sdb: sd 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi disk sdb ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [APSJ] enabled at IRQ 22 GSI 17 sharing vector 0xC9 and IRQ 17 ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:11.0[A] -> Link [APSJ] -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 201 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:11.0 to 64 ata3: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x9E0 ctl 0xBE2 bmdma 0xE400 irq 201 ata4: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x960 ctl 0xB62 bmdma 0xE408 irq 201 scsi2 : sata_nv ata3: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) scsi3 : sata_nv ata4: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) Varian

Blocking radio streaming
by Mário Gamito 04 May '07

04 May '07

Hi, I'm the system's administrator at my company. All servers are CentOS :) I've been noticing that many people spend the whole day hearing to online radios. How can i block the streaming ? It's HTTP and i think it's through port 80. Any help would be appreciated. Warm Regards, Mário Gamito PS: No good blocking the radio sites, they'll discover others.

RE: SCSI Raid controller
by bm 04 May '07

04 May '07

Hi All, I have some old HP Netserver LPr¹s that have old HP RAID controllers (NetRAID 3si¹s). The RAID controllers don¹t work too well with CentOS. I¹ve not been able to get the installer to see the controllers. I¹ve read a lot of notes that don¹t seem to point to me having any success. So 2 questions. Has anyone successfully used NetRAID 3si controllers with CentOS? Can anyone recommend an alternative controller that would play nicer with the OS? I¹m shooting for RAID1 only. Thanks Brian

centos vault
by Scott McClanahan 04 May '07

04 May '07

We are in need of a remote mirror that provides rsync capabilities for vaulted centos releases. Specifically centos 4.3 but we'll need 4.4 when it is vaulted too. Any helpful links to information on this or a reputable mirror would be fantastic. Thanks.

5.0: installing everything
by Steve Thompson 04 May '07

04 May '07

I realize that the @everything packages option is now gone in CentOS 5.0 (ix86 and x86_64), but my experiments to date don't show how to practically simulate the same effect (and I have a good reason for doing so). I want all packages, all languages. If one installs from CD, and selects all packages and options, the resulting anaconda-ks.cfg file does not have a complete package list. For example: - performing a kickstart install using the package list from the full-install-from-CD anaconda-ks.cfg results in a system with only about a third of the available packages, missing some notables such as openssl. - A kickstart install with a wild-card glob in the packages list does not work either; one gets a minimal install. Wild cards evidently not supported. - A kickstart install with a full listing of every rpm (not packages) in the %packages section does work, but it takes _two days_ of 100% CPU to resolve dependencies. So, how do I determine the proper full package list to use in the %packages section for a kickstart install? Do I have to go grubbing around in comps.xml to find the proper package list? TIA, Steve
