Preventing hour-long fsck on ext3-filesystem
...ience welcome.

virt-manager crashes Host during installation of guest
...with it too much as the server is also our file-server and people start complaining. So any hint will be greatly appreciated (otherwise I'll have to setup another machine for the guests) Bernhard -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- DI Bernhard F.W.

Problems running programs compiled unter Centos 5 on Centos 4 machines
I know this is quite a handwaving, stupid question, but I don't know where else to ask it and maybe somebody here can at least point me into the right direction, because I'm stuck. I have a program package that were using here (OpenFOAM for those who know it). My problem is that when I compile and link this package on CentOS 5, it won't run on CentOS 4.x-machines but stops with a

Problem with nvidia-drv-x11 when upgrading to CentOS 5.2
Hi! I know that the nvidia-drv-x11-package is from RPMForge, but I thought I might mention it here. I have a machine with a NVidia-card and because of the ease of use I use the rpmforge-package for that. After upgrading the problem was that during rebooting as soon as the machine hit the RHGB (which implicitly uses that driver) the machine froze. I booted into the old kernel removed rhgb,

No plugin-directory for firefox in CentOS 5.2
I noticed, that the directory /usr/lib/firefox-3.0b5/plugins/ is NOT created on CentOS 5.2. Therefor for instance the flash-plugin is not installed for the new firefox (After manually creating the directory and setting the right symlink it works all right)

Upgrade to 5.4 with an existing XFS-filesystem
Hi! I've got a fileserver currently running under 5.3 with the /home-partition being an XFS-filesystem. I use the kmod-xfs from extras. It works great ;) Now: as I understand it from the release-notes the 5.4 kernel has XFS already built-in. Right? Or is it just a kmod-package ("technology preview") Now my question is: are there any recommendations for an upgrade-procedure? I

Repository for clean and safe installation of python2.6 (and other python-software)
Hi! I want to test some software on my CentOS 5 machine that is not too happy with the system python (2.4). So when I install a python to my machines I want it to be a) clean: in other words it should be a RPM b) safe: it should not remove the system-python (in order not to break the system-scripts in subtle ways) but be accessible for instance as python2.6 (while python would still be

Services take a long time during initialzation (LDAP-authentication)
Hi! I've got a CentOS4.7-machine as a fileserver. The machine also serves as the LDAP-server against which all regular users are authenticated. The problem I am having is that the machine takes a very long time to boot. Most of the services start up rather quick, but three services take quite a long time (extending the boot time to over half an hour, which is .... long) The three services

Performance problems with XFS on Centos 5.4
Hi! During the last weeks I experienced some performance problems with a large file-system on XFS basis. Sometimes for instance ls is painfully. Immidiatly afterwards ls on the same directory is immidiate. I used strace on this ls and found that during the first ls the lstat-calls need approx 0.02s each while during the second ls the are two orders of magnitude faster. Googling around I stumbled

udevd can't reach LDAP-server during boot
Hi! I'm using CentOS 5.1 (x86_64) machines which authenticate using LDAP.

Root-filesystem remounts as read-only during 5.2 upgrade (system completely shoot)
Judging from the frequency of my messages here one could think that I'm too stupid to upgrade a workstation to 5.2 (but the servers I've tried work without problem) OK. The problem: I've tried to upgrade a 5.1-x86_64-workstation to 5.2. During the upgrade immidiatly after (according to the /var/log/messages) upgrading the two (64 & 32-bit) libgcc-packages an EXT3-error occurs and

Install CentOS on Partition(!)-images as a Xen-guest
Hi! Some weeks ago the "Running Xen"-book was recommended to me on this list. A nice book, but it gave me crazy idea: One of the recommendations (which sounds very reasonable to me) was to have instead of a single file that serves as a disk-image to have to files: one of them (which is mounted to hda1) serves as a partition that holds the data, the other one (which mounts to hda2) is

gconf-settings for compiz get overwritten
Hi! I'm having a problem with compiz on a Centos5-machine (I know compiz is only "Beta", but it looks soooo cool). When I use the gconf-editor to edit settings of the plugins (for instance /apps/compiz/plugins/scale/allscreens/options/initiate_edge) they work as expected, they get written to the correct file in ~/.gconf, but the next time I log in the are reset to the default value

Building i386 packages on a x86_64 system
Hi! Is there an easy way to do that? I looked around and the way that is usually advertised is setarch i386 rpmbuild --target=i386 --rebuild .... but for the SRPMs I've tried it always fails at tests in the Spec-File (like %ifnarch x86_64) The RPM I try to build doesn't compile anything (it just wraps a TAR-File), so setting up mock isn't necessary in my opinion. Is there any way
