RPM Spec and subpackage architecture
Are there any RPM wizards out there that know how to specify a
different architecture for a subpackage in a spec file?
I have a package that has a binary component and a non-binary
component that I would like split into 2 packages one, the
binary which is architecture dependant and the other 'noarch'.
I haven't found a spec file that does this yet :-(

Where is the blktrace utility?
I keep reading that RHEL/CentOS 5 supports blktrace, but I can't seem
to find the blktrace/blkparse utilities.
Is it that just the functionality is available in the kernel, but the
user is left to have to hunt down the latest versions of the utilities
on the net?
If anybody knows where to get the latest versions of these utilities
I would greatly appreciate it.

Yum install preferred arch only
I have a couple 64-bit CentOS 5 installations here and was wondering if
there was a yum option to have it install only x86_64 arch by default
if no arch is specified.
I tired of having to append .x86_64 on all package names I only want
the x86_64 versions of, if I want the i386 versions too I would add
the .i386 package to the list...
Thanks All,

Slightly OT: Extra icons on desktop
I'm running FC8 with Gnome 2.20.0 at work and I have this interesting situation.
I have two disks on the system that are both configured to be mounted
in /etc/fstab, but I'm seeing two things I believe are strange.
One is that the second drive is not getting mounted at boot time.
The other is that I see two icons for the disk on my desktop - one

Kernel debug info?
Ok, I got blktrace installed, but I also have some blktrace
system taps that I want to test out, but it seems I need to
have the kernel debug info installed to get systemtap
working.
Anyone know where the CentOS kernel-debuginfo RPMs are
located?

SMB Shares with subversion backing store
To all,
I was wondering if it was possible to setup samba shares that use subversion as a backing store for the files.
Whenever a new file is created it is added to the subversion tree, whenever a file is opened it is checked out of the subversion tree, and whenever it is deleted it is removed from the subversion tree.
The idea is that one could use subversion to retain previous versions of

NIS libuser and auto-make of maps
I have my NIS user/group files separate from the system user/group
files using libuser to manage them and that works well, but I am
trying to find a way to get libuser to invoke a 'make' of the NIS
maps whenever it updates the master files. Is there a routine I
can configure in libuser to do this, or am I stuck having to do
it by cron?

Multi domU Xen Box Network Transparent Sound
I have a new development box at home that I am working on.
Currently it has CentOS 5.1 + Xen 3.2 running several domUs.
I am using XDMCP on the domUs and an X Chooser on dom0 for
connecting to them and it works well, but now I want to be
able to get sound from my domUs and I have been struggling.
I can get some from network transparent sound by using ESD,

lvm with iscsi devices on boot
Hi All,
My CentOS 5.1 server is using iSCSI attached disks connecting
to a dual controller storage array. I have also configured multipathd
to manage the multiple paths. Everything works well, and on
boot the dev nodes are automatically created in /dev/mapper.
On these devices, I have created logical volumes using lvm2.
My problem is that lvm does not recognize these iscsi/multipath
volumes on

Dual boot box: WinXP & CentOS 5: Impossible torestoreWinXP?
I wouldn't necessarily wipe the whole HD, just the windows partition.
You could also use Xen in CentOS 5 for your Windows virtualization. I'd wait for 5.1 though which will be more refined then version 5.
I've been thinking of setting up a Xen machine of my own with a Windows HVM and a couple of Linux PVMs with their GUIs/consoles pinned to different virtual consoles. It has always

system gets suspended automatically!
Hello!
I am running CentOS-5 with latest kernel available by deault (2.6.23).
I installed it on a Dell XPS machine having Intel Quad processors (4
parallel cpus). I use it to run a computational program and I need to
keep the program running for 1-2 months continuously. I generally boot
it in runlevel-3 with network ON without X and use ssh from another
machine to connect and run the program

building a Xen guest image on straight LVM partitions?
Hello,
When I needed to build Xen guests under Debian I could follow more or
less the instructions in http://preview.tinyurl.com/2oc48r and the
advantage of this approach is that it allows me to setup the Xen guest
directly on the LVM partition without making it consider the LVM
partition as an entire disk with a partition table.
The advantages of this approach are:
1. I can add more LVM's

need advise on protect base and priorities plugin
Hi,
Is it not ok to use both plugins at the same time? I have read from the wiki page of centos that you must use only either protect base or priorities plugin. I have been using the the config file below for months and did not encounter any problems. I used priority=1 and protect=1 on base and updates (addons,extras protect=1 ; set no priorities) for the CentOS-Base repo and on the rpmforge

Centos package to export to eps format
Is there a package available in the CentOS repos that will convert either
a MicroSoft Word .doc, an OOo .otd, or an Acrobat .pdf file into eps
format? If so, what is its name? If not, What not CentOS packages are
available (if any) and recommended to accomplish this?
