I had my eye on the Tyan dual-Opteron mobos for awhile. I tried to find a posting *anywhere* sharing experiences with these boards under Linux. No such luck. So placing myself under the heading "Where Angles Fear to Tread," I went ahead and built a system anyway. Here's what I've learned. The specs: Tyan Thunder K8SE S2892, BIOS 1.01 2x Opteron 270, 2Ghz Dual-Core, retail

Has anyone installed Linux (CentOS or other) on a Tyan K8SE (S2892) motherboard? I'd really like to hear your experiences -- with this board or Nvidia's nForce Pro chipset in general. I'm looking to build a new server using this board but would like to find some other experiences first. I've googled myself blue but haven't found any reviews or postings regarding this

I am the tech guy for a local library. We have a network containing several diskless workstations. The hardware are these P4 boxes: http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=SAMBA845V-24-4-R&cat=SYS (We have inserted additional memory, bringing most of the machines up to 1.25Gig of memory, and two up to 2Gig of memory.) These little machines have integrated Intel video chips on their

Alle, We're running Dovecot V1.0.7 on RHEL5.5, using maildir. We would like to user per user quotas with an OpenLDAP (V2.3.43) backend. We have setup a default quota in /etc/dovecot.conf: quota = maildir:storage=10240:ignore=Trash And have the following userdb configs in /etc/doveconf.conf: userdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot-ldap.conf } and the following user_attrs defined in

Alle, I am trying to install CentOS 5 on a Dual Xeon 5160 FJ RX200 S3. The RAID hardware is an internal LSI MPT 1068 SAS/RAID controller (LSI 1068SASIME-2300). I have downloaded the drivers (mptsas, mptscsih and mptbase) and created the required floppy. When I run linux dd after booting from either the DVD or Disk 1 of the CentOS distro, it says it loads mptsas, mptbase and mptscsih and

Alle, I have a major problem. I'm running CentOS 5.5 on some rather old hardware (Dual Celeron 500MHz with 768MB of memory). Sometime in the last week, the DB became corrupted (I noticed when yum update would hang). I've tried running rpm --rebuild with both the 2.6.18-194.17.4 and 2.6.18-194.26.1 kernels and get a segmentation fault each time. Consequently, I'm pretty much stuck

Alle, Has anyone gotten Zimbra to work on an installation of CentOS4.3, x86_64 architecture?

Shouldn't this work with 32-bit compat? I've also tried to install RHEL4_64 4.0.0.RC1 but post installation fails when

Alle, Our customer is looking for a drive with the following specs that works (but is not necessarily supported by the vendor, that would be gravy) on CentOS4/5: DVD hyper multidrive, capable of reading and writing DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD-RAM, DVD-R for DL, and DVD+R DL. The HP DVD940e (USB 2.0, but that is *not* a requirement,

Alle, I was wondering if anyone is using 4.X on any Fujitsu Primergy hardware and what type of experience they've had. I know that FJ provides separate drivers for all the supported hardware that are supposed to be RHEL4.X compatible, but I have my doubts. Best Regards, Camron Best Regards, Camron -- Camron W.

Alle, Does anyone know if there is/where to get an rpm of flow-tools V0.66 or better for CentOS/RHEL 5.3?

Alle, We currently have a CentOS 5.6 x86-64 server running using about 70G of a 500GB hardware raid partition. We'd like to install 6.0 alongside this installation in a dual boot configuration. We tried to install using the "Use Free Space" installation option, but the installer did not see the 475G of unused space. Is there any good way to do this, or is it even feasible? Best

Alle, We recently received a requirement to implement a KB/FAQ solution that must: Web based Be searchable Allow registration of users Keep a history of user queries Allow new queries sent to subject matter experts via email and receive email updates when answers have been posted. Something along the lines of what CAP does using RightNow. Does anyone have any opensource suggestions for this

Alle, I have installed and enabled (I think) the yum protectbase plugin: [cwfox at lurker ~]$ rpm -qa | grep -i protectbase yum-plugin-protectbase-1.1-1.c4 [cwfox at lurker ~]$ cat /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/protectbase.conf [main] enabled = 1 [cwfox at lurker ~]$ grep plugin /etc/yum.conf plugins=1 [cwfox at lurker ~]$ cat /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo <SNIP> [base]

Is there any chance that wine can be made to run xbox games? There is alot of hardware optimisation so perhaps this is impossible, unless your running wine on an xbox,

Alle, Here is our situation: Our customer leases their machines from us and contract us to to manage them (as far as all systems administration issues). The customer does not have root access to any machine (by their own choice, as they want us to be responsible if something goes awry). In the case of their web servers, we handle all configuration, they manage the content. We make changes

Alle, Does anyone have any experience with with Netgear WG511v2 cards and V4.4? I read the post @ http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=4600&forum=30&post_id=13268#forumpost13268 but the system doesn't even seem to see the card. "/sbin/cardctl ident" shows no info on slot 0/1. "/sbin/modprobe prism54" comes back with nothing. I thought

Alle, We're trying to install kvm on a newly update CentOS5.4 box. Which package should /usr/bin/qemu-img come from, kvm-qemu-img or qemu? When we try to install kvm\* we get the following error: Transaction Check Error: file /usr/bin/qemu-img from install of kvm-qemu-img-83-105.el5.x86_64 conflicts with file from package qemu-0.9.0-4.x86_64 file /usr/share/man/man1/qemu-img.1.gz

Alle, I have an HP L7780 MFP, which is supported under hplip 1.7.2 but not the current install of 1.6.7. Does anyone know of a way just to add that particular driver to 1.6.7, or will it require removing the standard 1.6.7 and doing a custom install of 1.7.2. If the latter, what would you consider the dangers/other implications of going "rogue"? Best Regards, Camron -- Camron W.
