I rebooted my machine this morning and now instead of running normally, my GLMatrix screen saver flashes as it repaints the screen, more and more noticeably as the screen fills up with glyphs. I didn't change ANYTHING and this was not happening before the boot. Anyone have any ideas why this might be? Thanks. Mark Hull-Richter, Linux Kernel Engineer DATAllegro (www.datallegro.com) 85

I went to enable samba on my home machine, which has a largely plain vanilla install of CentOS 4.4 Plus, and the smbd and nmbd files are missing. As you may know, this makes it rather difficult to run samba. For some reason, the winbindd binary is present, and rpm reports: samba-common-3.0.10-1.4E.11 samba-client-3.0.10-1.4E.11 as present. So how do I retrieve the missing samba binaries/ Do

I just bit the bullet and installed CentOS 5 on my work desktop, and although I have two monitors and a card that supports them, I cannot get the display configuration to work with both as a continuous (spanning) desktop. I have tried using the correct (autodetected) monitor type (digital and analog), a generic LCD with 1280x1024, nothing works. Every time I set the configuration, the X server

I installed the kernel-2.6.18-8.el5.src.rpm today and went to build it, but it fails with this error: $ rpmbuild -bp --target=`uname -m` kernel-2.6.spec Building target platforms: x86_64 Building for target x86_64 error: Failed build dependencies: unifdef is needed by kernel-2.6.18-8.el5.x86_64 I double checked and this appears to be the latest kernel source rpm on centos/5.0/os/SRPMS.

I'd like to point out that overall I am quite pleased with CentOS 5, although I am having more fun with it than I did with 4.4 and I knew less about CentOS then (duh). Most things seem to work fine, including a relatively smooth installation from the DVD image I downloaded, although the number of screensavers I can see (and this could be related to the ATI/dual head problem) is pathetically

Inconpatibility CentOS 5 64 Bit + VMware Server ? Bye Gio

Nvidia driver for 6200 LE video card. No problems with CentOS 4.5. When installed (not upgraded) 5.0 X would not start. X works fine with 2.6.18-8.1.3.el5 but only with xorg.conf as written for 4.5 Haven't seen traffic regarding this problem. Has anyone else seen this? Thanks, Dick -- "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither

I'm running with CentOS 4.3 and the system was setup originaly with no development system and no kernel sources. I'm trying to get the headers and libraries installed and it is giving me fits. I've followed the suggestions on several threads and tried to yum install gcc, kernel-headers, kernel-devel but I seem to not be able to get /usr/include or use/include/sys packages... don't

I recently added a Seagate 400Gb SATA drive to my system, and it has been behaving strangely since I put it in. for one thing, the BIOS S.M.A.R.T. came up with a warning the last time I booted with it enabled, saying that I should backup my data and replace the disk (!). I still have not made any irreversible data transfers to this drive, and I have some time yet to take it back, but I'd

Hi! running a Centos 4.5 system here. This week when I do "yum update" I get this output: # yum update Loading "protectbase" plugin Setting up Update Process Setting up repositories kbs-CentOS-Extras 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 update 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 pidgin 100%

I've asked this almost everywhere else, so obviously I only find out about this list now (my doing, too). I am running VMWare Workstation on top of host CentOS 4.4 Plus on a Dell Precision 390 with 2G of main memory. Under VMWare, I am running a Windows XP guest OS. I have a similar setup at home except that the hardware is a little different but the memory and the setup are the same, and

Hi, I am having some issues with CentOS 5. -XMMS stops playing MP3s without apparent reason. I leave it playing some album and it will just stop whenever it feels like it. It will go into "pause" and just stay there. Pressing on the pause button to resume does nothing at all. I thought it could be some newly encoded songs, but it does the same for a song that I have played 100% times.

Hi, Currently streaming ogg isn't practical in this situation. That was one of the first things i checked into. WHen i looked i didn't see a streamer that did both ogg and mp3. Thanks.

Hello, Does anyone have a guide for setting up an nfs server for unattended deployment of centos5? Basically what i want to do is boot a system from CD media, pass a boot parameter nfs, and ks= options then walk away, the box goes out to the nfs server, finds the kickstart file, reads, and does it. I've got several machines and i'd rather not do manual installs. Thanks. Dave.

Hello, I hope this is the right place to ask this one. I've got a FreeBSD 6.2 machine acting as an nfs server. It's exporting a home directory to several machines. On the server that home directory has a symlink in it to another directory on the filesystem. As long as users are on the server they can view the directory symlinked to, but if viewing through samba, they're

Hello, I'm trying to set up centos 5.1 to authenticate against an openldap server. I've got the authentication working, in that i can log in as a user contained within the ldap database but not in the system passwd/group files. The problem is instead of a prompt that for example looks like this: (username)@hostname:~/$ i'm getting this: (I have no name)@hostname:~/$

Hello, I've got a FreeBSD 6 machine running icecast2 and ices0streaming four different streams of mp3's. Now i have a need to stream the same content as either aac+ or ogg vorbis whichever would be easiest to set up and give the best quality. I want these new streams to handle both broadband and dialup users without sacrificing quality. My problem is i really really do not want to

Hello, I'm setting up a centos5 router for a friend. It will direct traffic to an internal webserver, already in place, as well as run squid proxy. It should do nat and have a firewall with iptables. I've set up routers before for this purpose but always of the bsd type and using their firewalls. I understand the concepts, nat, packet filtering, etc. but i'm not getting

Hello, I've got two streams, one for broadband, one for dialup. Well, having had occation to use a dialup connection recently i checked the dialup stream. Although it was streaming what the broadband stream was, the audio quality was audibly worse. It didn't buffer, but it didn't sound as clear as the broadband stream. I used lame to encode the tracks to mp3 and used it's
