Upgrading I2C Modules
by Kirk Bocek 12 Sep '06

12 Sep '06

Does anyone know how to upgrade the I2C modules *without* compiling the current kernel source? I have a system that apparently needs the current set of I2C modules to work with lm_sensors. If I compile the current kernel source, the proper readings show up. However, with the stock 2.6.9-42.0.2 kernel, one sensor chip isn't seen. Trying to compile the I2C source yields a "Use the modules in the 2.6 kernel source" message. I really want to use the stock kernel. Anyone know how to do this? Thanks, Kirk Bocek

I have the latest kernel with the drivers for my 3ware 9550SX built in. Where can I find the tools and monitoring apps for this card? Are there rpms hiding somewhere, or do I need to build it from source? -- Bowie

mixed repos
by "ΠΑΤΡΙΣ > Τμημα Inte rnet" 12 Sep '06

12 Sep '06

Hello, Does anybody knows a way to keep updated mixed repositories without mixing them ? For Example i have 3 repos in my desktop centos system , Centos repos handled by up2date Dag repo handled by apt and Karan repo handled by yum. I need packages from each repo but i don't want the secondary repos to mess my system so i never update with these repos. is there a way each tool (up2date, yum, apt) to update only the packages that came from that repo and not the whole system ? for example to update dag packages i use apt-get install and the names of dag repos packages in my system but it's kind of complicated to track all these packages one by one. I believe that if this mater resolved and we can have multiple repos and more apps than centos can compete even ubuntu.

Taring up the OS - how to exclude directories
by Robert Moskowitz 12 Sep '06

12 Sep '06

From the howto: http://www.faqs.org/docs/securing/chap29sec305.html I got some ideas to help me to tar up the OS. I had already been shown how to wrap it into SSH to deposit the tar file on another system, so I tried the following: tar cpvzf - -C / --exclude home --exclude media --exclude mnt --exclude proc --exclude */lost+found | ssh root(a)10.0.0.2 "cat>backup-060907.tgz" But, whereas the howto is talking about --exclude dealing with files, the Centos Man on tar is saying that it applies to files. So what is wrong? I know the SSH stuff is correct as when I put in something like ls I get a file with result of the ls. Also I had done this without the excludes and of course it died slowing when it got to /media/cdrom :(

Yum update frozen
by M. Fioretti 11 Sep '06

11 Sep '06

Hello, about one hour ago, I did a "yum update" on a remote centos 4.3 server. It said: Install 2 Package(s) Update 60 Package(s) Remove 0 Package(s) Total download size: 103 M Is this ok [y/N]: y then, after downloading: Running Transaction Test Finished Transaction Test Transaction Test Succeeded Running Transaction Running Transaction Updating : libgcc ##################### [ 1/124] Updating : python-urlgrabber ##################### [ 2/124] Updating : hwdata ##################### [ 3/124] and so on (note 124 packages, not 62), until it arrived at: Editing /etc/postfix/master.cf, adding missing entry for tlsmgr service Updating : yum ##################### [ 62/124] Cleanup : coreutils ##################### [ 63/124] Cleanup : net-tools ##################### [ 64/124] Cleanup : tar ##################### [ 65/124] Cleanup : postfix ##################### [ 66/124] Cleanup : file ##################### [ 67/124] Cleanup : grep ##################### [ 68/124] Cleanup : newt ##################### [ 69/124] Cleanup : python-sqlite ##################### [ 70/124] Cleanup : rpm-build ##################### [ 71/124] Cleanup : mkinitrd ##################### [ 72/124] Cleanup : e2fsprogs ##################### [ 73/124] and then nothing more. It has remained stuck at that line for almost one hour now. Is something funny happening? What should I do? Hit Control-C, halt the system from another shell (during an upgrade????)? or should I simply ignore it? I have no problem to reinstall/reconfigure something if need be. I'm just worried to lose any contact with the server if I do the wrong thing during an apparently frozen update. TIA, Marco
