Installed program not found
by Dave Gutteridge 01 Aug '05

01 Aug '05

I recently configured and made the drivers for my wacom device. It installed okay, the drivers seem to be working, and there were no errors in the configure and make process. However, one application that was supposed to be isntalled is a graphical tablet configuration utility called wacomcpl. So far as I know, it should be installed. But perhaps it is somewhere that is not included in the path. But I have no idea where the program would have been installed to. I can't find by Google the right command on the net to find out where an application is, although I'm sure it exists. What should I do to try and find an application called wacomcpl on my system?

LVM Snapshot Create Error
by Kirk Bocek 01 Aug '05

01 Aug '05

Just discovered that on CentOS 4.1 when you issue the command: lvcreate -s -n temp -L2G /dev/vgname/lvname to create a snapshot, you get the error message: snapshot: Required device-mapper target(s) not detected in your kernel I've checked and recheck my spelling and tried using the device created under /dev/mapper. I've tried it on both x86_64 and on i386. Works as expected under CentOS 3.5. Any ideas what is going on?

I have FC 3 running on my "play/test" box. Is CentOS (RHEL) a level above? Can I do an Upgrade or should I do an Install? Todd --

Announcing CentOS 3 i386 Cluster Suite (CS) and Global File System (GFS) (John Newbigin) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Mon, 01 Aug 2005 10:47:29 +1000 From: John Newbigin <jnewbigin(a)ict.swin.edu.au> Subject: [CentOS-announce] Announcing CentOS 3 i386 Cluster Suite (CS) and Global File System (GFS) To: centos-announce(a)centos.org Message-ID: <42ED7121.7070304(a)ict.swin.edu.au> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Announcing CentOS 3 i386 Cluster Suite (CS) and Global File System (GFS) CentOS csgfs is now available for CentOS-3 i386. This is a built from source found here: ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/3/en/RHCS/i386/SRPMS/ ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/3/en/RHGFS/i386/SRPMS/ ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/enterprise/3AS/en/RHCS/SRPMS/ ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/enterprise/3AS/en/RHGFS/SRPMS/ CentOS-3 csgfs combines both the Cluster Suite 3 (CS) and the Global File System 6.0 (GFS) into a single directory (csgfs). This makes it convenient if you use both but you can still use just the CS or the GFS on their own as you require. The manual for these products can be found in the rh-cs-en-3-2.noarch.rpm and rh-gfs-en-6.0-4.noarch.rpm packages. The following web sites relate to this software: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/csgfs/ http://www.redhat.com/software/rha/cluster/ http://www.redhat.com/software/rha/gfs/ Please remember that CentOS provides community support via the centos(a)centos.org mailing list, forums and irc. If you need payed up support then CentOS csgfs is probably not for you. You do not need extra hardware to use this software. Without hardware like shared storage and fencing equipment you may not receive all the benefits that this software can deliver. Updates to this software often lag significantly behind the core CentOS updates. For this reason you should take appropriate measures to protect the security of your servers which are using CentOS csgfs. You can find CentOS csgfs under the centos/3/csgfs/i386/ directory of your favorite CentOS mirror. Yum headers are provided so you can easily integrate with the standard CentOS package management tools. Depending on your fencing method, you may require an extra perl module perl-Net-SSLeay. This can be obtained from Dag/RpmForge. Enjoy.

Big thanks for supporting i586 type machines.
by Lamar Owen 31 Jul '05

31 Jul '05

While I know that, technically, the only i586 machines are the Pentium and Pentium MMX, it is still nice that I can use some headless AMD K6/2 machines I have lying around for CentOS 4. Many thanks for the effort expended to get that working. -- Lamar Owen Director of Information Technology Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute 1 PARI Drive Rosman, NC 28772 (828)862-5554 www.pari.edu

Linux newbie asks about sonypi on laptop
by Ralph Loizzo 31 Jul '05

31 Jul '05

Okay. I've been able to set my laptop's screen brighter by working with the program spicctrl and the sonypi device. But everytime I boot, I login under my username then have to do the following every time... First I go into the bash terminal, then su because I can't do this under my login name mknod /dev/sonypi c 10 250 #because sonypi is not listed in /dev - it disappears everytime I shut down then I type chmod o+w sonypi #because I want to be able under my login name, not root, to set the brightness then i exit su and type spicctrl --setbrightness=150 and it works... My questions are: Why do I have to recreate the device every time? Shouldn't it be there every time? Your comments would be greatly appreciated. Ralph Loizzo

Reinstall Windows but preserve CentOS
by Dave Gutteridge 31 Jul '05

31 Jul '05

I have a computer that dual boots between Windows and CentOS. Each has it's own hard drive. I suddenly have a problem with Windows, and may need to reinstall. I need it for applications like After Effects, Premiere, and other things that I am currently in the middle of a project with. It seems the system has become usnstable, it's preventing me from continuing to work, and I may need to wipe the Windows partition clean and start again. My concern is that if I do that, I will lose the Grub boot loader and not be able to access CentOS again. How can I reinstall Windows with a clean partition, and preserve my dual booting? Dave
