This morning I applied the recent updates to CentOS-5.6 on a test and development host and observed this: Updating : kmod-kvm 4/20 WARNING: Can't read module /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.32.1.el5/weak-updates/kmod-kvm/kvm.ko: No such file or directory WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.32.1.el5/weak-updates/kmod-kvm/ksm.ko needs unknown symbol

For various reasons which seemingly fail the necessary/sufficient tests with the benefit of hindsight, I attempted to migrate a shell machine which is the beach front from which I work (not a production server) from CentOS 5.5 to Scientific Linux 5.5 yesterday. Karanbir is quoted on this list as having said something like: "All that you should need to do is install centos-release, remove

Hello, We have default xen 3.1.2 on centOS 5.5. We now want to upgrade xen 3.1.2 to xen 4.0.1 while using the existing dom0 kernel (2.6.18).

I'm doing an update on a machine that does have VMs running on it, and I see a number of complaints to the effect of WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.32.1.el5/weak-updates/kmod-kvm/kvm-intel.ko needs unknown symbol kvm_vcpu_init WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.32.1.el5/weak-updates/kmod-kvm/kvm-intel.ko needs unknown symbol kvm_mmu_invlpg And there are a lot of them (more than I can scroll

After updating my laptop ( compaq 6820s) to Centos 5.6 the sound is gone. The sound card is still detected but there is no sound from speaker Vendor: Intel Corporation Model: 82810H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller Module: snd-hda-intel On the same updated laptop the sound is working fine with an older kernel ( 2.6.18-194.32.1.el5.centos.plus ) I tried with no success ( sound related )

Hi, I have a problematic CentOS XEN server and hope someone could point me in the right direction to optimize it a bit. The server runs on a Core2Quad 9300, with 8GB RAM (max motherboard can take, 1U chassis) on an Intel motherboard with a 1TB SATA HDD. dom0 is set to 512MB limit with a few small XEM VM's running: root at zaxen01:[~]$ xm list Name ID

Hi, on one of our systems I see that while the time on the Centos 5.4 Host is correct it lags behind on two of the 5.5 guests by almost 5 minutes but is correct for the third domU. From what I understand the clock of the system is controlled by the host and and guest cannot write to it (and because of that not change it). Does anyone now what the cause could be and how I can fix the time for

After a crash I tried wget http://debuginfo.centos.org/5/x86_64/kernel-debuginfo-2.6.18-194.32.1.el5.x86_64.rpm as usual. But for 32.1 there is no kernel-debuginfo. Is there any reason for that?

I have a C++ program that opens, gets a little data from, and closes about 5000 files. Now if I run the program when I first boot up, the running time is from about 10 seconds to a minute. Subsequently, the program runs in well inter one second. Buffering -- right? So I changed a parameter, so the program gets a different (albeit similar) 5000 files from a different directory. Running time on
