My company supplies me with a very nice HP nc2400. Much faster, more memory, etc than my old HP nc4010. Problem is the drive is not swappable, and they encrypt the drive (the OS is XP). The nc2400 has a DVD/CDRW and 2 USB 2.0 ports so I was thinking..... Make a Live DVD with everything I need but map /etc /root /home and /var/log (and what else?) to a USB flash drive (16Gb are available

I just did a yum update. It pulled in a number of updates including the latest firefox and davfs2.i386. Then I watch the following show up during the cleanup phase of yum (/var/log/messages): Mar 28 15:42:18 nc2400 Erased: jdk Mar 28 15:42:25 nc2400 Erased: jre Mar 28 15:42:31 nc2400 Erased: fuse-davfs2 Are the first jsut removal of the alternatives? How do I tell and how do I find that

This is a new Centos 5.1 install on a HP nc2400 (that use to run XP). Completely clean install; blew away the XP partitions... After applying all the updates, and configuring for the rpmforge repo, I used yumex to install dkms and the dkms-ipw3945, ipw3945-firmware, and ipw3945d rpms. lsmod|grep ipw shows: ipw3945 180391 1 ieeee80211 33417 1 ipw3945 and dmesg)grep

Well FWbuilder is NOT easy. The documentation does not match the current GUI. Now the box is locked up. I will have to pull it again, hook it up to a kybd/VGA and reset iptables.... Maybe Shoreline with webmin.... Problem is I want a REAL router/firewall with little work. Both public and private nets have routable addresses. No NATing for me! I just help write the RFC ;) And all the

I just replaced my fan in my nc2400. It was a 5hour job. Had to pull EVERYTHING to get to where they have the fan in the thing. Now I want to know if it is working. It is suppose to be thermostatically controlled, and it takes time to heat up. So how can I find out what Centos knows about the system temp and fan state? It was hard to tell if I put the connector in the right way. At least

Hi everybody, I have a problem when trying to do the quality control with the packages simpleaffy and affyQCReport with the drosophila chip 2.0 At first I got the messeage, that the *.qcdef file is not there. I followed the instructions in tha manual and created the file like that: array drosophila2cdf alpha1 0.05 alpha2 0.065 spk bioB AFFX-r2-Ec-bioB-3_at spk bioC AFFX-r2-Ec-bioC-3_at spk bioD

I move my notebook around my office. Sometimes I am using the internal pointers, sometimes a USB mouse, and sometimes a USB keyboard/mouse adapter that is plugged into a kvm (actually two of them). With one of these USB k/m adapters, when I plug in, the system fails to recognize the mouse (but no problem with the keyboard). The 2 adapters are the same brand/model (Aten), but the KVMs are

Hi. We have a Windows laptop that has gotten too slow, it's borderline unusable, so I burned a CentOS 5.2 32-bit Live CD, just to try it out in the home. It boots up fine, but it does not connect to the Internet... Now we normally connect through a wireless network, there are several around here -- on the Windows box we choose the network to which to connect... but on CentOS there is

Sunday I updated my kernel to 128.1.16 (I had to reboot so it was time to update). No problems with wireless in my home. Monday I started traveling to IEEE 802 plenary, and I have lost my wireless numerous times needing to reboot. The symptom is the radio light goes off. Back before the kernel update, this would happen sometimes at home while on battery, and I would just press the

So right now I have installed k3b on this notebook. I am using my Storix DVD/CDRW usb drive. I can read cds with it. Cannot burn CDs. First k3b suggests slowing down (from 8x to 4x). Then use TAO. Then it gave up. So I try cdrecord directly. -checkdrive finds some interesting things. Got to close the drive manually; cdrecord says it can't. then try a cdrecord -v dev=dev/scd0 sample.iso

Hey all, Just downloaded the new Xen 4.0 and ran Make xen Make tools Make stubdom Copied the new files from dist/install Im already running pv_ops 2.6.31.6 kernel. When I boot i get (XEN) Panic on CPU 0: (XEN) IO-APIC + timer doesn''t work! I have tried booting with noapic boot option but makes no difference. The system worked fine on 3.4.2 CPU is AMD.

Hi, I've installed samba 4.5.3 as a domain controller and provisioned a domain. Now I'm integrating the win7 machines as clients. If the clients are in the network, all is ok. But if I use a notebook in a different network (for example at home) the win7 logon takes a very long time up to 2-3 minutes. If I disconnect all network connections, the login is as fast as in the domain network.

I am using centos5.3 x86_64 on a gigabyte GA-MA78GM-US2H motherboard. When I insert a USB thumbdrive its detected with dmesg, I mount it and start to copy files. Then I start getting errors: sdd: assuming drive cache: write through sdd: sdd1 sdd2 sd 7:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sdd sd 7:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg4 type 0 usb-storage: device scan complete usb 1-5: reset high speed

Further to my messages back in May I have at last got round to trying to get my DomU to recognise USB devices. I am using Xen 4.6 with CentOS kernel 3.18.34-20.el7.x86_64. I have to manually make the port available before creating the DomU by issuing the command: xl pci-assignable-add 00:1a.0 otherwise nothing shows in: xl pci-assignable-list I have added this to my .cfg file as per the

I have installed the xen 3.1.0 x86_64 tarball compiled for RHEL5 on a RHEL5 system. The system in question was able to boot with the xen kernel that came with RHEL5. I untarred the tarball, and did cd /boot mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.18-xen.img 2.6.18-xen The command exited properly and made a initrd image. The machine booted with a grub.conf entry like this: title Xen 3.1.0 root

I''m currently working on moving storage services into their own domain and I''ve been looking at blktap2. I''ve been trying to get an image mounted with blktap2 and for some odd reason and tapdisk2 keeps hanging instead of quitting at the end. I haven''t removed any of the storage startup code at this point so everything should be as it normally is in xen-unstable.

Hi! While investigating into the PR1782 I spent some time analyzing BasicAliasAnalysis.cpp. While the mentioned problem should be fixed now (I hope), I have discovered some other possibilities for a bug to occur. In the case of checking for aliasing of two pointer values, where at least one of them is a GEP instruction with out-of-bound indices, BasicAliasAnalysis can return NoAlias, even if the

Excuse my ignorance here, but I am desperately trying to isolate the IRQ for my TE110P card (shown below as t1xxp) Ive gone into my bios and disabled all usb , parallel, serial and some other devices, those that I needed to keep, I have moved off of IRQ 10 and onto IRQ 5, but everytime I boot up, I get usb-uhci and ehci_hcd using IRQ 10 as well as my Digium card. Does anybody know what these are
