Howdy, I hate to bother everyone with something so simple, but I've beat my head bloody on this one. I have a new machine with an MSI RS480M2-IL motherboard (ATI Xpress200 chipset) and a Hammer DVD Writer (shows up as a Matshita DVD-RAM SW-9585). Anyway, I downloaded the CentOS 4.3 iso's and burned them to CD. When I boot the new machine it says: Boot CD: DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT

Is there anyone out there who has installed FreeBSD on the above Sony laptop ? Both ''cat filename > /dev/dsp0.0'' or ''vlc cdda:///dev/acd0@1 are OK. If I run ''cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0 play'', there is no sound. But the output of ''cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0 status audio'' is alright. (same behaviour for cd0 instead of acd0) And the output

Hey, I have a portable harddisk Western Digital 120GB USB. Im running Nevada b42a on Thinkpad T43. Is this a supported configuration for setting up ZFS on portable disks ? Found out some old blogs about this topic: http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/artem?entry=zfs_on_the_go and some other info under: http://www.sun.com/io_technologies/USB-Faq.html Is this information still valid ?

Hello all I've got a Matshita dvd-ram uj-830sx that is performing very bad on my freshly installed CentOS 5. I'm using k3b and get a steady 1.2x which is way too slow. I think it is supposed to do ~8x and the discs are 16x. Any suggestions? (hdparm -c 1 -d 1 /dev/hdc turned on 32-bit IO but only helped slightly) Johnny Ljunggren

Hi all, I have trouble with making the symbolic link to the corresponding device node.

Good morning, folks. I've been driving myself to distraction trying to test out SMB2 performance under Linux. I see that the Samba on RHEL 5 is relatively old, I'm dealing with an upstream NetApp fileserver that is configured for SMB2, so I've got clients to test. The Samba on RHEL 5 is relatively old, 3.0.33, with samba3x-3.5.4 alternatively available, and cifs-utils-* available

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Time for another cifs-utils release! Nothing terribly earth shattering here. Some distros (like Fedora) are moving krb5 credcaches out of /tmp by default. Users of these distros will definitely want to upgrade.

Evening everyone, I'm trying to install Centos 4.3 in VMWare Workstation running on Windows XP (my laptop). I downloaded the CD iso's to my Linux box and burned them (I did them correctly since last time I screwed them up). However, when I start the VM in VMWare, it says the CD isn't bootable. Any ideas? Thanks! Jeff

Hi all, Trying to boot a server with the CentOS 4.4 LiveCD (have a crashed HD that I am trying to recover data from). The CD boots fine, gets past asking for the keyboard type, then asks for a password. It will stay at the login prompt for a few seconds, then whether I type anything or not, it gives a fast error message, something about mixer not attached (it goes by too fast to read the

If you have any of the devices listed below, please test with a recent -stable or -current. They will stop working in 4.9 and 5.2 although old behavior can _temporarily_ be enabled by adding "options DA_OLD_QUIRKS" to your kernel config. If I don't hear from anyone, they'll be going away permanently after the releases. -Nate #ifdef DA_OLD_QUIRKS /* Below a list of

Good afternoon, Apologies if this topic has come up before but I've found that the Firefox 45.1.0 stability to be somewhat lacking. For example, I can't use it for Twitter because it crashes. It also crashes when I log into gmail. This happens every time I try these URL's. Any suggestions on improving the stability? Thanks! Jeff

Oops - I should have mentioned that I'm running C6 (I do need to upgrade at some point).

Good morning, I've inherited an old laptop from my wife that I'd like to use when I travel (it's fairly small with a 12" screen). The bad part is that it is maxed out on memory with 384MB. Has anyone played with using Centos5 on systems with little memory? Ideally, I don't need too much - Firefox, Openoffice, a little Perl/Python/C here and there. I was thinking about using

I've noticed the following behavior on files that are overwritten with an scp command and I can't decide if this is intended behavior or a bug? Can someone with a little more insight please share the reasoning for this (if any)? I've tested this with a mix of 3.4p1 and 3.5p1 hosts. Suppose we have 2 files on different hosts, with different group ownership and permissions. user1 is not

I would like to how how I can take the CentOS 4.4 Server Cd for example and modify the ISO to put on my anaconda-ks.cfg file and then modify the kernel parameters to automatically load the anaconda-ks.cfg file so that I can create a CD that I just stick into my machine it will format the drive, install the basic configuration I like without asking any questions. I need to install like 20

struct timespec64 has unused bits in the tv_nsec field that can be used for other purposes. In future patches, we're going to change how the inode->i_ctime is accessed in certain inodes in order to make use of them. In order to do that safely though, we'll need to eradicate raw accesses of the inode->i_ctime field from the kernel. Add new accessor functions for the ctime that we can
