I have two computers: both running CentOS 6.7, 64-bit, with kernel 2.6.32-573.12.1.el6.x86_64. One is a laptop with an 2 core Intel processor and the other is a desktop machine with a 4 core AMD processor. Both with selinux enabled. I have a USB serial port device (a RR-CirKits LCC-Buffer USB). On the desktop I am getting this error: sauron.deepsoft.com% sudo minicom Device /dev/ttyACM0

OK, it seems that the kernel I have (stock CentOS 4.7: 2.6.9-78.0.22.EL i686) seems to gronk the nVideo SATA controller in AHCI mode. It is NOT able to deal with the SATA DVD Burner I have. It is a "Sony Optiarc DVD Burner with LightScribe Black SATA Model AD-7241S-0B LightScribe Support". Is there some special magic I need to do? Here is the relevant bit from the boot up (SATA ports

I am planning to increase the disk space on my desktop system. It is running CentOS 5.9 w/XEN. I have two 160Gig 2.5" laptop (2.5") SATA drives in two slots of a 4-slot hot swap bay configured like this: Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End

I am trying to run my old CentOS4.8 (32-bit) system as a guest system under CentOS5.4xen (64-bit). I followed the instructions in Appendix A of the xen user manual (/usr/share/doc/xen-3.0.3/pdf/user.pdf) and created a 'disk image' (actually a 10gig LVM logical volume: sauron.deepsoft.com% sudo fdisk -l /dev/mapper/sauron-c4guest Disk /dev/mapper/sauron-c4guest: 10.7 GB, 10737418240

One of my VPS stopped working. After the data centre replaced a disk normal service resumed, then I notices this: CentOS release 5.5 (Final) Kernel 2.6.35.4 on an x86_64 I always thought Centos 5.x would always be on 2.6.18. Any thoughts?

Hi, for a specific application we need a low-profile SCSI card (PCI) with external 50pin connector. I thought about getting an "Adaptec SCSI Card 2930LP". However I was not able to find any usable information about wether this card is supported by Linux/CentOS 5.x or not. Does anyone have this card working with a CentOS 5.x machine? Alternatively: Are there any linux-supported

Hi all, I have a presentation problem that I cannot find a solution to in the documetnation. I have a nice barplot. Below this I would also like a table with some information relating to the plot. My idea was to have the plot and table on the same graphics window so I can output them as an image file for a report. Does anybody know how to include tabular information from a dataset or table into

yum remove lightdm That command tells me that it's also going to remove lightdm-gobject and lightdm-gtk. rpm -q --whatrequires lightdm no package requires lightdm So obviously we can't take the word of the --whatrequires option from the rpm command since yum remove tells me that there are two. That being the case, using yum remove to determine the actual dependency chain is not all

I setup a kickstart file that contains only @core and several packages explicitely listed. postfix is listed, sendmail is not. And there's no package where I would think it needs cups. Nevertheless, after the install I now have postfix *and* sendmail on the machine and sendmail even being enabled. And cups is installed. How can I find out what forced them (and probably many other unwanted

I recently came across the need to convert jpg images with IM, did a standard install of "yum -y install ImageMagick" and found that images converted with CentOS's base port of IM would actually corrupt the images, yet using the same (albiet different version, different distro) software didn't corrupt the images at all. By corrupted, I mean, the bottom portion of the image under

I am trying to install a CentOS 6.4 x86_64 VM using a CentOS 5.9 x86_64 host, but its install has froze *twice*. What I am doing is to create a 10gig LVM volume, which I put a MS-DOS partition table on (using fdisk). I then format the only partition to ext3, install grub and install the pxeboot kernel and initrd.img and a simple grub.conf to load this. I have the CentOS 6.4 x86_64 ISOs mounted
