mount.cifs and UID mapping
by Petr Fischer 24 Aug '05

24 Aug '05

Hi! I have mounted samba disk with mount.cifs (smbmount has problems with codepage [Czech] - I can't use it). How do I map the server UID/GID to client UID/GID? (I can't have the same UIDs/GIDs on all computers.) Classic mount parameters uid/gid can't be used if "CIFS Unix extensions" are used on Samba server. Google has not answered my questions (maybe I asked wrong). Thanks, pf

Where do my RPMs actually go, and is it different for Red Hat builds?
by Dave Gutteridge 23 Aug '05

23 Aug '05

I'm trying to install themes for KDE. In doing so, I came across the following web site which seems to have the themes I want as RPMs: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/17/dept/3/idg/User+Interface_Desktop The theme I want is called "Thinkeramik", and it has the following versions, for various Red Hat builds: thinkeramik-3.2.1-1.0.el3.kde.i386.rpm RedHat EL 3 thinkeramik-3.2.1-1.0.el4.kde.i386.rpm RedHat EL 4 thinkeramik-3.2.1-1.0.fc2.kde.i386.rpm Fedora 2 thinkeramik-3.2.1-1.0.fc3.kde.i386.rpm Fedora 3 thinkeramik-3.2.1-1.0.fc4.kde.i386.rpm Fedora 4 thinkeramik-3.2.1-1.0.rh73.kde.i386.rpm RedHat 7.X thinkeramik-3.2.1-1.0.rh90.kde.i386.rpm RedHat 9 I've read on this list that CentOS is equal to Red Hat 9, or to Red Hat EL 4. So I'm not sure which download I should get, or which is better. But in any case, I tried both Red Hat 9 and Red Hat EL 4. In either case, when I click to download (in FireFox), I'm given the option to install, so I do, and I enter my root password. It all seems to go fine, without errors. If I go to the command prompt and query the existence of the RPM, it's there: [root@localhost dave]# rpm -q thinkeramik thinkeramik-3.2.1-1.0.rh90.kde Then I go to the KDE Theme Manager in the Control Center, and here's where I hit the wall. The theme "Thinkeramik" is not automatically listed as one of the themes, so I click to "Install New Theme...". But I have no idea where to look. The RPM has been isntalled... somewhere, but I have no idea what directory to look in. I looked on Google to try and figure out if there was an option with the rpm command to locate the files associated with the RPM package, but was unsuccessful. Where should I look for the theme related files that the RPM should have theoretically installed? Dave

64 bit hardware and filesystem size limit
by Sean Staats 23 Aug '05

23 Aug '05

We recently bought a 32-bit Xeon system with a 12-port 3Ware RAID card and a dozen 500GB drives. We wanted to create 4TB drive arrays; however, we soon discovered that there is about a 2.2TB drive array size limit on 32-bit hardware. Does that sound correct? Would replacing the 32-bit mobo/cpu with a 64-bit mobo/cpu allow us to use drive arrays larger than 2.2TB? Thanks.

KDE screensaver on Centos 4.1
by BRUCE STANLEY 23 Aug '05

23 Aug '05

The KDE screen savers will only blank out the screen though most of them test ok when you hit the test button in the Control Center. The Gnome screen savers work ok. My system has a Radeon 9200SE video card and I have a ViewSonic A70f monitor. Does anyone have a fix for this?
