Rats... found some hardware monitoring from the vendor and it's broken, or I'm missing some pieces. No mention of CentOS specifically, but RH is supported, so figured it *ought* to work. I'm apparently missing a library -- liblinc.so.1, and a net search reveals several sources, both for x86 and 64-bit. Tried them both, after the x86 did not work, and the 64-bit I thought was going to work, but it crashes the application under gnome, and under text. Yes, I did the bad thing (tm) and installed an rpm not from yum, and now, I can't seem to make rpm remove it. Says it's not installed, but it is. Rebuilt the database and still says it's already installed when I tried to reinstall it, but says it's NOT installed when I try to remove it ...hmmmph. I know where the rm -f keys are :-)
Question to the gang. Anybody have this software working on a supermicro board, and if so, what did you do to get it going?
Thanks...
If you can get a filelist for the package and remove the files, then you can remove the entry in the database with:
rpm -e --justdb
Looks like that package is in CentOS-3.x (linc) so I would try building it from the SRPM on CentOS-4 and see if that works for you. That file is no longer in CentOS-4 or FC>3.
Thanks for the heads up Johnny. I'll see if I can build it.
