Hi, I have been using Centos since 3.0. I have been upgrading regularly without any major problem. 4.1 to 4.2 has been a total disaster. I ran yum update, it went through and a couple of hours later I rebooted and X froze with the screen just being just fuzz [regular rectangles, orange, green...] and the keyboard froze. Could not do a alt-ctrl-backspace, nor a Alt-F1-6 nor Alt-Ctrl-Del. I

Hello, We are running units in the field that are headless.

You know how if you do an improper shutdown and then boot up, the server prompts you to run a file system check if you press "Y" within 5 seconds? Well, this is great but sometimes not practical in remote access situations when we call our datacenter to say reboot a hang server and they have no monitor or keyboard hooked up to the system. Is there a way to have the system forced to

Hi all, I want to setup a RAID storage system, where i have two systems connected to it. the filesystems are mapped out to both connectors.

Has anyone yet tried PXE booting the vmlinuz/initrd.img set from Centos 4.0beta2? I have a pxelinux setup that is booting 3.4 PXE images fine, but the equivalent setup for 4.0beta loads the kernel and then splashes the monitor full of multicolor random characters. Not a good start to an install... Anyone had luck? Any changes for PXE boots known for 4.0? Thanks in advance. -Alan

Hi, I'd like to upgrade my 2.2 samba to the latest 3.x stable, so I'm experimenting with the new features of 3.x on a RHEL 3 clone. I've run into some difficulty when using usrmgr.exe for administrating users. I've filled out the 'add user script' define with: add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -g sambausers -c "Samba User" -d /dev/null -s

Does anyone know of an easy to install/use WIFI PCMCIA card for Linux. I am currently running Cent OS 4.0 on my laptop and I have a D-Link DWL-G650 Ver B which will run off of the madwifi Beta drivers. Now I know I can get this to work but I would feel a little better using software that is in production development. Any suggestions and input would be helpful on my new card purchase. The card

According to the "R Internals" document, for a custom device, I should create a pDevDesc structure that gets passed to GECreateDevDesc. ..elided... pDevDesc dev; /* Allocate and initialize the device driver data */ if (!(dev = (pDevDesc) calloc(1, sizeof(DevDesc)))) return 0; /* or error() */ /* set up device driver or free ?dev? and error() */ gdd = GEcreateDevDesc(dev);

Hi, Beta 8, selected server & developer. The installation goes into a loop on disk 2, with the error, that it cannot read zlib-devel... claiming that either the file is corrupted or the drive is not working.

I'm rather new to Wine, and I'm trying to run a Java Swing application. I'm having trouble with it. Has anyone else gotten Swing-based apps to run? I have a test case, basically a swing "hello world" app, and I haven't been able to get it to work either. Here's what happens when I try to compile it: [dritch@twitch wine]$ wine -- c:/jdk1.3/bin/javac -g -d

Folks- I have had a machine dropped in my lap that I am trying to get CentOS 4.1 to run on as a first pass (the hope is for it to eventually run Rocks -- http://www.rocksclusters.org , which uses CentOS 4.x as its underlying OS).
