Why not just continue to use RH 9 for a while until you feel comfortable? Fedora is not going to disappear. Just because an upgrade is available it doesn't mean you have to immediately upgrade. Have you upgraded to the latest version of RH 9? I think Fedora is great but after installing it on some other machines I've decided to wait until Fedora Core 2 is available (in another month or so). I noticed some minor install issues with Core 1 and since RH 9 is perfectly useable, I didn't see the need to immediately upgrade to Fedora. Even if you do upgrade, I don't think you will notice much of a difference between RH 9 and Fedora Core 1. Rick B.

You're certainly right, but I thought that it would be good to start with Fedora, just because RH9 will disappear. I don't any good reason! I don't know very much about the differences. I take this opportunity to ask some other questions. 1) I did the upgrade, but it wasn't an upgrade... I had to reformat the partition and install Fedora, because the upgrading programme wanted 400 M more. Do you know why? 2) I tried to share a hard disk with Windows "mount"ing it by: mount -t vfat /dev/hdb /mnt/dosdrive, but I receive an error message saying that the type is incorrect (or so). Can you help me? 3) I've configured my Alcatel Speedtouch Modem. Everything was working, but how can I connect to my ISP after booting? I've tried to find all answers in some docs, but I failed!

If it's the (stupid) "Spurious 8253 interrupt" message, you can ignore it. If it bothers you, you can edit /etc/syslog.conf and make sure that the line that reads: kern.* /dev/console is commented out. If it is, I'd need to see the message. If it isn't, comment it out and do an "/etc/rc.d/init.d/syslogd restart". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Vegetarian: Old Indian word for "lousy hunter" - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From rstevens at vitalstream.com Mon Mar 1 19:10:35 2004 From: rstevens at vitalstream.com (Rick Stevens) Date: Mon, 01 Mar 2004 11:10:35 -0800 Subject: Redhat 3.0 AS Upgrade before install redhat as 2.1 In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <40438AAB.9010903@vitalstream.com> Peter H?rhager wrote: > Hello, > > We received our Dell Server with "redhat 2.1 as" but we want to start with > "red hat 3.0" as from the beginning...maybe we got less problems then with > a later upgrade? > > Where can I download the rh3.0as images? or what steps i need to take? > (Install 2.1 before changing to 3.0) First, AS2.1 has been "end-of-lifed" by Red Hat. As for AS3, you must buy it. You can buy it online and download the AS3 images at http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/as/ You may find the images somewhere for free, but you will not be able to update it without the "entitlements" you buy from Red Hat (well, you _can_ update it, but only from source RPMs where you have to build the stuff and install it yourself). Also be aware that many third-party systems do not yet support RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux) 3 in any of its flavors (ES, AS, WS). EMC's "PowerPath" for their SANs won't work on it. They do support AS2.1. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Do you know how to save five drowning lawyers?

For day-to-day use, RH9 is perfectly acceptable.

My guess is that one of the partitions didn't have enough room to hold the current RPMs and the new ones to be installed (for a brief time, they both must be on the disk). If it wanted another 400MB, then you had a partition that was pretty full. > 2) I tried to share a hard disk with Windows "mount"ing it by: mount -t vfat > /dev/hdb /mnt/dosdrive, but I receive an error message saying that the type > is incorrect (or so). Can you help me? Uh, you can't do that. It must be "/dev/hdbN" ("N" being some number). "/dev/hdb" is the WHOLE drive, "/dev/hdb1" is the partition on the drive.

If you have Alsa installed, then why not try enabling OSS emulation in Alsa and get the best of both worlds? In general I find that Alsa's OSS stuff actually works pretty well. Give it a try.

I installed only the system and the partition is 4G! I don't buy that. The part of the disk that contains Linux may be 4G, but the individual partitions (those listed by "mount" or "df -h") are undoubtedly smaller. "fdisk" would report them too. Remember that partitions 1-4 under fdisk are primary partitions (with one of them possibly an extended partition), partitions 5-n are INSIDE the extended partition. > Anyway, is it possible to increase its size mantaining all data? Using cfdisk and parted, yes, but they're not for casual use, and there are limitations (you can't move the start of a partition, for example). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - There are only 10 kinds of people in the world -- those who - - understand binary and those who don't - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From rstevens at vitalstream.com Tue Mar 2 18:32:49 2004 From: rstevens at vitalstream.com (Rick Stevens) Date: Tue, 02 Mar 2004 10:32:49 -0800 Subject: USR external faxmodem on RH9 In-Reply-To: <20040302074047.BA90123947@ws5-3.us4.outblaze.com> References: <20040302074047.BA90123947@ws5-3.us4.outblaze.com> Message-ID: <4044D351.1040909@vitalstream.com> moey tony wrote (reformatted for bottom posting): >>Sorry about that.

Yes, that's correct. A serial modem CANNOT be a winmodem. For one thing, there's no way for the CPU to feed the modem the DSPified sound data over a serial port fast enough to make it feasible. That alone removes it from the winmodem category. If the modem says "Hayes-compatible" or something along those lines ("standard AT-command set" perhaps), it's not a winmodem and will work under Linux quite happily. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - "You think that's tough?

Not really. There's no syntax checker in the manner of "perl -c" for Bourne (sh) or Bourne Again (bash) scripts. You have to know the syntax. > If there were syntactic errors, would that cause the > kernel to tell me it can't execute /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit? It depends on what the actual error message is. Is it "no such file"? Is it "rc.sysinit:somenumber error message"?

How can I fix that? You installed all of Linux into a single file system. As the system installs (especially during an upgrade), the system creates a temporary directory in /var to hold the RPMs that make up a "group" (such as the "C development" group) and copies the necessary RPMs to that directory (this "cache" speeds up the installation as CDs are slower than hard drives). Since you have everything in one partition (ordinarily, you create /var as a separate partition), the system sucks up as much disk space as needed to hold your package selections and, as a consequence, there's no space to upgrade / or /usr (since they're all on the same filesystem). This will only occur on an upgrade, as the packages must be decompressed and files swapped out as they're replaced. The solution is not easy with an installed system. You have to repartition the disk. The partitioning method I use is: 1. Partition the disk so you have a small primary partition to hold the /boot filesystem (about 64-128MB is generally more than enough). 2. Partition off an extended partition to hold the rest of the system. 3. Partition off the extended partition into sub-partitions. With 4GB available, I'd set them up as follows: / (root filesystem): 128-256MB (depending on how many kernels you'll have installed) swap 1 to 2 times your RAM size /var: 512MB-1GB /usr: Rest of extended partition This would limit the upgrade to suck up whatever's left of /var for its cache and not affect the / or /usr filesystems, leaving them space for upgrades (there's not a ton of stuff that gets installed in /var during an upgrade other than the cache). That's the way I'd set it up. Do as you will. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - grasshopotomaus: A creature that can leap to tremendous heights... - - ...once. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From vboyt at yahoo.com Thu Mar 4 00:11:28 2004 From: vboyt at yahoo.com (VB) Date: Wed, 3 Mar 2004 16:11:28 -0800 (PST) Subject: Bootup: cannot execute /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit In-Reply-To: <4046497F.3050607@vitalstream.com> Message-ID: <20040304001128.16210.qmail@web11304.mail.yahoo.com> --- Rick Stevens wrote: > VB wrote: > > --- Chris Hewitt > wrote: > > > >>VB wrote: > >> > >> > >>>Hi, > >>>I just modified my /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit since > I've > >>>been having problems with the 2.6.3 kernel.

The SMP kernel is too large to fit on a floppy. Starting with Red Hat 8.0, mkbootdisk supports creating an ISO image that you can use to create a bootable CD. It may be possible to grab the SRPM from >= 8.0 and recompile it for use on RH 7.3. > One more thing, after starting the Linux from my existing linux boot > disk can I tell linux to switch to the other kernel the SMP version. No. You can't "hot swap" a running kernel. :-( Regards, Jim H -- Jim Hayward GPG Key available at: http://www.keyserver.net GPG Fingerprint: 1AA9 AEC9 BFDF FF7A E4F8 90C7 4947 3A41 85A9 2DCC -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

It mean you have to boot the machine into single user mode and log in as root. You can do this by passing parameters to the boot loader, for instance, in the case of LILO, when the prompt is issued (boot:) hit the tab button to interrupt the boot process and see a list of possible images to boot. Your machine will very likely only have 1 and it will probably be called linux. presuming this is the case, you would type linux after the boot prompt, followed by a space, followed by either the word single, or the number 1. It would look like this: boot: Linux single or boot: Linux 1 There are more than just these 2 examples, but these are sufficient. This will then boot you to root shell and you will be asked for the root password. You are now in single user mode (sometimes also called maintenance mode). Single user mode is also runlevel 1 (hence the 1 parameter to the bootloader). You can also reach this runlevel from a "fully booted" machine. Just boot your box as you normally do and login as root. Then issue the command init 1 (or telinit 1, check man pages). This will then change your runlevel from (generally) either 3 or 5, to runlevel 1. This is the level at which you would run parted. Now, that having been said... please don't take this as an insult because that's certainly not how it's meant, but, if you are not familiar enough with a *nix box to know what single user mode is, you really have no business manipulation partitions on active root filesystems. You can certainly learn a lot playing around at that level, but you should only be doing so on a system that could drop dead without you being bothered by it. A couple of unattended keystrokes and you've lost everything, so don't go at it lightly.

Here's the scenario. I've got Apache running on a machine at my house that I also do email on. I'm in the office and want to do two things: 1) Go to a web page on this machine and download a file. Easy. The web page is set up to show me the contents fo a aspecific directory so I browse there and start the download. 2) While the download is progressing I want to read email, so I attempt to ssh into the machine. ssh barely responds to me typing my password. I try to open Evolution but the application takes minutes to come up, if it comes up at all. 3) The instant the file download completes Evolution responds quickly. Is this some sort of opportunity for using nice with Apache? I don't want simple web page display to be slowed down by other processes on this machine, but I don't want such high priority being given to file downloads either. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

I start getting dependences failures. There are a number of dependency issues that really aren't germain to getting the packages up and running. Because Red Hat builds the various packages with lots of features enabled, the dependency list grows and grows. My suggestion is to install a minimal system and build the stuff you want from source code tarballs. You can build a shell script that does all the builds you need. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - I doubt, therefore I might be. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From rstevens at vitalstream.com Thu Mar 4 17:57:28 2004 From: rstevens at vitalstream.com (Rick Stevens) Date: Thu, 04 Mar 2004 09:57:28 -0800 Subject: R: R: Partitioning (ex: Installing Fedora on RH9 (newbie)) In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <40476E08.9040005@vitalstream.com> Ninux wrote: > Hi, Rick, thanks for your kind help! > I think I understood what you wrote, but... > > 1) how can I know how many kernels I'll have installed?

Well, yes, but it's VERY difficult and I wouldn't recommend doing it unless you can stand to lose everything INCLUDING your Windows partition (one false step and BLAMMO!). Your risk is greater because you have one disk with two operating systems on it. If you had installed Linux to a totally separate disk, then I'd feel better about you playing with it. I would really recommend you start your Linux install from scratch and manually partition the drive during the install. Mucking about with parted, cfdisk, fdisk and the lot are not for the faint of heart. Heck, I don't like playing with them and I've been doing Linux for a LONG time (since the old kernel 0.2 days). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - "Very funny, Scotty.

You might need to tune Apache to throttle its downloads. I think that's possible but can't tell you how.

Why are you posting this to a Linux site? This is more an Apache or Windows issue. You need to read the Apache documents specific to a Windows install to answer this.

Not sure. There's nothing in bugzilla about it, either. Perhaps you should squawk it to bugzilla.

Since you say if it didn't the message above would have been the last one printed and I get through more of the boot process. The last message I see is "Starting system message bus..." and then the screen flickers for a while. I'm guessing these are failed attempts to start X (gdm). Also, I was told that using 'bash -n' will do a weak syntax checking on the rc.sysinit file. It gave me an error that I couldn't track down right away, but I'll look again when I have time. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Since the download bandwidth from Apache is going to be in the 256Kb/S direction there isn't a huge amount of bits/second we're dealing with here. (It's just a home connection...) However, and clearly, no matter what the size of the pipe you could always construct a test case that would run into this issue. If you have 100Mb/S and I ask for very big files, you'll still want to give them to me, so I'm almost sure there must be a solution.

That's ok. That's a normal warning. You've dealt with the potential problem by putting /boot on/dev/hdb2 which is entirely under the 1024-cylinder boundary. That's largely a BIOS constraint so that it can access the kernel below that boundary. > With the "print" command I receive the following information: > > Disk /dev/hdb: 8447 MB, 8447459328 bytes > 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1027 cylinders > Units = cilindri of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes > > Dispositivo Avvio Inizio Fine Blocchi Id Sistema > /dev/hdb1 * 1 517 4152771 b Win95 FAT32 > /dev/hdb2 518 534 136552+ 83 Linux > /dev/hdb3 535 567 265072+ 83 Linux > /dev/hdb4 568 1027 3694950 5 Esteso > /dev/hdb5 568 635 546178+ 83 Linux > /dev/hdb6 636 960 2610531 83 Linux > /dev/hdb7 961 1025 522081 82 Linux swap Note that two cylinders, 1026-1027 remain unused.

That's normal. It's a warning. The BIOS on old systems couldn't access (boot) a partition that started above cylinder 1023 on your disk. You bypassed that issue by creating a /boot below that cylinder limit.

That's pretty good. I probably would have made /usr bigger by making /var smaller. I know you used my recommendations, but it'll work. Partitioning is more of an art than a science. Remember that the vast majority of your software and stuff will install in /usr, so you generally want it to be as big as you can make it. Just for giggles, I thought I'd include my "df -h" on the system I'm writing this on. Keep in mind that it's a 160GB Maxtor: [root at prophead root]# fdisk -l Disk /dev/hda: 163.9 GB, 163928604672 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19929 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 131 1052226 83 Linux /dev/hda2 132 5353 41945715 83 Linux /dev/hda3 5354 10575 41945715 83 Linux /dev/hda4 10576 19929 75136005 f Win95 Ext'd (LBA) /dev/hda5 10576 11097 4192933+ 83 Linux /dev/hda6 11098 11228 1052226 82 Linux swap /dev/hda7 11229 19929 69890751 83 Linux and here's "df -h" [root at prophead root]# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda1 1012M 321M 640M 34% / /dev/hda2 40G 23G 16G 59% /images /dev/hda7 66G 14G 50G 22% /usr /dev/hda5 4.0G 398M 3.4G 11% /var /dev/hda3 40G 1.8G 36G 5% /work none 251M 0 251M 0% /dev/shm The system is fairly clean right now, as I archived a lot of development code to CD (/work was 82% full, /usr was 90% full).

It is the message you listed above and, yes, it does bother me because if I am typing a command the message goes on the command line and, well, becomes annoying. Will do as you suggest.

I see in other posting that you've got things more or less sorted. I agree with (was it Rick?) that /usr is tight, but you've only got 4 gigs or so to work with so you're a bit constrained. You probably did an "everything" install, though, didn't you? If you're worried about space you could always re-install and select fewer packages. If you were to do without the development code for the Kernel and windows managers and stick to just one or two languages (locale), you'd probably gain back 20% or better of your disk. Or better yet, take back your hdb1 and put it where it belongs. You're a grown up now, it's time to stop playing with toys. :-) If you want to have some fun and learn a bit of intermediate "stuff" about running a Linux box, have a look at LVM.

Just for your information, the 8253 was the original timer chip used to drive the parallel port on PC hardware. 8253s aren't really used anymore, but the message is from the early days of the kernel when they were and the text persists. The most common cause of this message is the having the APIC enabled on certain AMD-based motherboards. You can either turn off the APIC (by specifying the "noapic" boot parameter or rebuilding your kernel with it disabled) or simply ignore the message (which is what the syslog.conf tweak does). It's pretty harmless. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From rstevens at vitalstream.com Fri Mar 5 17:03:12 2004 From: rstevens at vitalstream.com (Rick Stevens) Date: Fri, 05 Mar 2004 09:03:12 -0800 Subject: RH 7.1 installation on an IBM server with 3 scsi disks In-Reply-To: <1078470212.15037.182146217@webmail.messagingengine.com> References: <1078470212.15037.182146217@webmail.messagingengine.com> Message-ID: <4048B2D0.3070007@vitalstream.com> pmo_listserv at emailgroups.net wrote: >>Hello guys/gals!

How can a single disk be RAID5? You need at least three disks for a RAID5 configuration. If you mean you have three disks that are set up as a RAID5 and look like your third disk, fine, but say so. >>My task is to have Red Hat installed in this server. My question is if it >>is possible to install the OS in the disk which has Raid5 and just >>disregard the other two ordinary scsi disks? If yes, will it have an >>impact on server performance? Again, you can't have RAID5 on a single disk. As to whether you can install Linux on a RAID5 system, sure. It depends on if it's a hardware or software RAID as to how to do the install. Performance-wise, there is tiny penalty for hardware RAID5, but the data security more than makes up for it. If it's a software RAID5, the penalty is more severe than it is for a hardware RAID5 since the CPU has to do the striping rather than delegating it to a hardware controller. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Okay, who put a "stop payment" on my reality check? - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From play_that_funk at hotmail.com Fri Mar 5 17:47:23 2004 From: play_that_funk at hotmail.com (Jay D) Date: Fri, 05 Mar 2004 12:47:23 -0500 Subject: "x" won't start after red hat linux 9 installation Message-ID: I'm a new linux user. While installing RH 9 on a computer I just bought off ebay (750 Mhz, 80 Gig HD, 256 Megs RAM, Pro Savage4 32MB Video Card) everything seems to go fine until x starts. At that point, the screen goes blank and the system stops responding, and I must pull the plug. The computer had windows 2000 on it when I got it, which seemed to boot fine. I've since over-written the windows installation though. I've tried installing in graphical mode. That doesn't work, the screen just goes blank after "loading x" flashes on the screen. I've tried installing in text mode, and booting into graphical mode. Again, the screen goes blank at boot, when x starts. I tried installing in text mode and booting into text mode. That works fine. I login as root fine (because I don't think the installation gave me a chance to create other users). Then starting x via the "startx" command kills the system; the screen goes blank and I need to turn the computer off. Although this probably isn't related, annaconda was originally giving the following warning after detecting my video card, monitor, and mouse. Warning: The partion table on /dev/hda is inconsistent. There are many reasons why this might be the case. Often, the reason is that Linux detected the BIOS geometry incorrectly. However, this does not appear to be the case here. It is safe to ignore, but ignoring may cause (fixable) problems with some boot loaders and may cause problems with FAT file systems. Using LBA is recommended. It then gave me the option of ignoring or cancelling. I thought maybe I screwed up window's partintion table when I shut it down in the middle of startup. I figured it didn't matter, since I was about to overwrite windows anyway. Do you think that screwed up my hard drive? Anyway, I took out my hard drive and put it back in, and that seemed to fix that issue. I just though I'd mention that in case it might be related... So, back to the x issue. Well, I tried installing in text mode and "forcing LBA32" just in case. Still, starting x kills the system. So I re-installed without forcing LBA. I can boot into text mode fine, but (as I said) starting x kills the system. On my last install I paid special attention during the "x configuration" phase (something I probably should've done in the first place). I noticed that it deteted my vid card as "P3 Savage 16MB". I'm not sure how to check what kind of video card I have, but my ebay receipt says its a Savage Pro4 32MB. Well, I didn't see a "P4 Savage 32MB" in the list provided by the x configuration page during the install, so I just selected "generic savage" and 32MB as my video card. Do you think that is my problem? Maybe RH 9 doesn't support my video card? Should I try Fedora core1? I've heard that is the same as RH9, basically. Maybe I should try Debian or Mandrake or something like that. Do you have any suggestions as to how to fix this problem from text mode? Or any websites you think would have good troubleshooting information. Is it possible to manually install my video card (if you think that is the problem)? Thank you for your time, Jay PS ** I didn't know what LBA was, so I'll include it here. From a google search: Logical Block Addressing (LBA) is a technique that allows a computer to address a hard disk larger than 528 megabytes. A logical block address is a 28-bit value that maps to a specific cylinder-head-sector address on the disk. 28 bits allows sufficient variation to specify addresses on a hard disk up to 8.4 gigabytes in data storage capacity. Logical block addressing is one of the defining features of Enhanced IDE (EIDE), a hard disk interface to the computer bus or data paths. _________________________________________________________________ FREE pop-up blocking with the new MSN Toolbar ? get it now! http://clk.atdmt.com/AVE/go/onm00200415ave/direct/01/ From ajai at bway.net Fri Mar 5 18:30:20 2004 From: ajai at bway.net (Ajai Khattri) Date: Fri, 5 Mar 2004 13:30:20 -0500 (EST) Subject: "x" won't start after red hat linux 9 installation In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: On Fri, 5 Mar 2004, Jay D wrote: > goes blank after "loading x" flashes on the screen.

I tried running that command and the same thing happened. When I hit cntrl-Alt-backspace (thank you Aj.) it brought me back to a prompt and showed a message saying: The Application xconf.py lost its connection to the display :17.0; most likely the x server was shut down or you killed/destroyed the application. When I tried the advice at the link you provided I got the same results, except this time the message said: The Application 'gnome-session' lost its connection to the display :0.0; most likely the x server was shut down or you killed/destroyed the application. xinit:connection to X server lost. waiting for X server to shut down There was a bunch of stuff above the message like this: [144] 400 x 300 72Hz ...

Of course it's not possible to have a hardware RAID with a single disk, but a single disk software RAID is completely doable. You just assign partitions as container members. I piddled around with software RAID on RH 9 ages ago, just wanting to see how silly I could get. I don't remember all the details, but I remember it having suprised me a bit. I'd build a 3 "disk" RAID 5 with 1 failover "disk", and then used the native tools to break it. I was able to kill things off until only a single "disk" was left. I wasn't able to add "disks" and re-build the container once the RAID had been crippled to a single "disk", but the data was all still accessible and I was able to sucessfully backup "off site" and recover to a rebuilt system. The whole experience was quite positive and caused me to re-think some criticsms I was developing.

The easist way is to use "ifconfig eth0" (or, as a regular user, "/sbin/ifconfig eth0") and assuming you're using ethernet rather than a dialup or DSL-over-USB. In the latter case, you can use "ppp0" rather than "eth0" or simply "ifconfig -a" or "/sbin/ifconfig -a" to list ALL interfaces. If you want to know what your IP is as seen by the rest of the world, try "http://www.rhil.net/whatip.php". It'll tell you. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - To err is human, to moo bovine. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From rstevens at vitalstream.com Mon Mar 8 18:03:53 2004 From: rstevens at vitalstream.com (Rick Stevens) Date: Mon, 08 Mar 2004 10:03:53 -0800 Subject: Getting Java Plugins to Run with Mozilla in RH 9 In-Reply-To: <404A6AA2.5060608@nauticom.net> References: <404A6AA2.5060608@nauticom.net> Message-ID: <404CB589.9090305@vitalstream.com> rab wrote: > I'm not sure why java is so problematic in RH Linux.

Every time I install a new > version of Mozilla, java plugins stop working. You must find out where you're installing Mozilla (usually /usr/lib/mozilla-version). Don't assume that /usr/lib/mozilla is where it went. Often, /usr/lib/mozilla is a symbolic link to where the actual stuff lives. For example: [root at prophead root]# ls -ld /usr/lib/moz* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Nov 10 12:09 /usr/lib/mozilla -> mozilla-1.5 drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Aug 15 2003 /usr/lib/mozilla-1.2.1 drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Aug 19 2003 /usr/lib/mozilla-1.4 drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Nov 17 09:48 /usr/lib/mozilla-1.5 As you can see, /usr/lib/mozilla is a symlink to /usr/lib/mozilla-1.5. Regardless, you must get to the real install directory (in the above case, /usr/lib/mozilla-1.5) and create a symbolic link from that directory's "/plugins" directory to your Java binary.

Unless you were doing it as an intellectual exercize or to familiarize yourself with the tools, you gain nothing. There's no data redundancy except on the same disk and you sure-as-heck aren't going to get any performance enhancements (if anything it'll be slower). Having a RAID using partitions on one drive is about as useful as teats on a bull. It shouldn't even be called RAID, but (pardon me) "RAIP" (redundant array of inane partitions). The whole point of a RAID is to survive the death of a DRIVE. If you start losing parts of partitions, you had better replace the drive PDQ (pretty damned quick). > I piddled around with software RAID on RH 9 ages ago, just wanting > to see how silly I could get.

The /sbin/ifconfig eth0 works great! Now I need to learn a little scripting on Linux to pull out the ip address (or install REXX :-). I have a site that could get the external address but in this case that would not help. We're just tinkering with a way to "find" a our RH box in a morass of Windows machines. All the machines in the site go through some sort of NAT to get to the real world and thus all share the same apparent ip from that point of view.

Try: ifconfig eth0 | grep "addr:" | gawk 'BEGIN{FS="[:| ]*"}{print $4;}' Be careful about the punctuation (don't swap the " and ' marks around).

Such as, commercial distributions of Linux were pandering to new market share by dumbing down and coloring up; that functioning, reliable (system level) tools and the continuing development thereof were being neglected in favor of offering something as one-click and Windows-like as possible, so that Capitan Profit could take the helm of the frigate MS Discontent. That commercial distributions of Linux were so falling over themselves to attract the first time user who has just turned his back in disgust on proprietary software, that they had begun to disregard the user base that made them who they are. .. Sorry, this could easily be a 12 page rant. Products like RH 7.2 and 7.3 being followed up with dung like 8.0 are indicative of the current mindset in the commercial Linux namespace, IMHO. Quality is being left behind in the race for quantity, and it sucks big time. I was bloody pleasantly suprised to see that there are still good bits in with the bad, that's all.

I read your earlier post a few times, Andrew, before I realised that you probably did appreciate that RAID on the same drive did not achieve the usual RAID objective, and that it was an experimentation/leaning excercise. I think Rick probably did the same, but may not have appreciated your objective. Rick's response may have been a little severe, but in my opinion your response has made things worse. Yes, you are both knowledgeable. Yes you both know what RAID is about. Please may we discuss not . I was interested in this thread because a week ago I first dipped a toe into RAID myself by configuring up the computer I'm going to use for my new broadband connection to use two IDE discs (on separate IDE channels) to use software RAID (RAID1) when installing Fedora Core 1. Worked like a charm. At least I have some redundancy now. All I have to do is work out what to do with my ATAPI CDROM. I don't want to impair performance by putting it on one of the existing IDE channels so I bought myself an InnoVision (non-RAID) IDE controller. Problem is that the linux drivers are for RH 7.3 and these were compiled with gcc 2 and FC1 uses gcc 3 and that is the error message I get. I've emailed the support address and am waiting to see it anything happens.

Yes, you are both knowledgeable. Yes you both know what > RAID is about. Please may we discuss not . I don't think I can agree with your statement that I've made things worse. Was there even a "thing" to have been worsened? Yes, I may have gotten Ricks knickers in a twist, but that was rather my intention, at least in part. A very large percentage of participants in lists like this one have a language other than english as a mother tongue. They also span the full spectrum as far as abilities are concerned, so there are bound to be (and often enough are) some strangely formulated or ill founded postions and/or questions. Huge effort should be made when replying to these queries, not to _even_accidentally_ be demeaning in any way. The larger burden lies in this respect to those that know the most or can impart the information the best. Openly pissy responses should absolutely not be tolerated at all. Rick, if you are guilty only of having written something in a way which I falsely interpreted as rude and condescending, then I apologize for the intentionally snotty comments, but admonish you to take the rest to heart. The burden of communication lies heavily on the speaker in a venue like this, and every effort should be made to circumvent the possibility of misinterpretation.

You can do so just as if you were upgrading RH 9 to RH 10 (which FC1 is, more or less). If squeamish about it, see my recipe for safe upgrades: http://www.bobcatos.com/duplicate_root.html The material is a little dated, but the principles still apply. (I'll update that Real Soon Now.)

I think you might be interested in the Fedora Legacy Project. Quoted from the website... "The goal of The Fedora Legacy Project is to work with the Linux community to provide security and critical bug fix errata packages for select End of Life Red Hat Linux and Fedora Core distributions.

Harmless as all that. Well, true. It's not a very useful thing to do. As I had said, if it's for practice and getting familiar with the tools, fine. It does not, however, do anything practical for you. My "tirade" (should you wish to call it that) was invoked because we have a number of neophytes on the list and I get concerned when something like this gets put up, simply because I'm worried they'll set up a single-disk RAID and think that it will provide them the same "security" as a multi-disk RAID. >>Having a RAID using partitions on one drive is about as useful as teats >>on a bull.

(As evidenced by my own words) Again, it depends on how you read it. I never--and I mean NEVER--intend to sound preachy or superior. I am concerned because this list covers the gamut from rank newbies to old hands such as yourself. Any information that could possibly cause a newbie to set themselves up for a bad toe-stubbing (such as a single-disk RAID) is of concern to me. Once more, I appologize if you took offense. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - To iterate is human, to recurse, divine. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From kmsexton at melbpc.org.au Tue Mar 9 23:45:59 2004 From: kmsexton at melbpc.org.au (Ken M Sexton) Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2004 10:45:59 +1100 Subject: Separate workspaces Message-ID: <5.1.0.14.0.20040310104243.034322b0@popa.melbpc.org.au> Greetings readers, Every so often someone suggests it is better, when starting another application, to open a new workspace (in the GUI) rather than opening the new application in your original workspace.

Having multiple desktops is a lot nicer than having to iconify or windowshade windows constantly--at least for me it is. Let me explain: I have a veritable sh*tpot of open apps all the time and use 8 desktops. One is me logged in as my mortal self with three xterm windows, you know, to do normal stuff. Number 2 is my mail client/web browser display (Mozilla/Mozilla Mail). Number 3 is a just a desktop (used to open GUI tools when I don't want to stomp on my xterms). Number 4 is just like number 1, but with me logged in as root in the xterms. The fifth is a debug/development screen with whatever code I'm working on in either kdevelop, codefusion or other GUI. Number 6 is a bunch of xterms with ssh connections to our SMTP and incoming mail server clusters. Number 7 is similar, but with connections to our 9-server POP3 cluster. Number 8 is like 6 and 7, but with connections to our webmail and IMAP clusters. Having it laid out like this allows me to switch between environments very easily. "Hey, Rick, something's wrong with POP server 4!", click, and I'm there. As I said, it works for me, but it's not for everyone (oh, BTW, I run a 1280 x 1024 screen). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Tempt not the dragons of fate, since thou art crunchy and taste - - good with ketchup. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From fdgrant at powercom.net Wed Mar 10 00:37:36 2004 From: fdgrant at powercom.net (Fred Grant) Date: 09 Mar 2004 18:37:36 -0600 Subject: orbit file Message-ID: <1078879056.3877.4.camel@localhost.localdomain> What are orbit files used for?

Ah. Thank you for the explanation. Of course I can completely understand your motivation; my feelings are roughly the same. > And you should keep in mind that a lot of newbies watch this list (and > others) and one should try not to lead them down a dead-end path.

Well put, thank you. > Once more, I appologize if you took offense. Oddly enough, I didn't take offense, but thank you just the same. There was a portion of your post to which I _could_ have taken offense, had I chosen to, and my openly antangonistic response was a calculated one, _just_in_case_ my offense was your intention. I'm sorry, that's very obtuse, isn't it? Here: I work at the secretariate of an international organisation; where the roughly 70 people in the building represent 30 or so different nationalalities. On a personal level I am accutely "allergic" to belittling behaviour or anything that attempts to attack the worth and value of any human being. But my work has made me minutely aware of the importance of communication; specifically the need to take every precaution to ensure that what is being communicated cannot possible be perceived as rude or demeaning. It is sometimes amazingly difficult, that is a fact. My "offense" was rather quixotic, I'll give you that. :-) Looks like a case of "red flags passing in the night", non? 'nuff said.

Those are the UNIX-family of network ports (think of them as named pipes) for various bits of the GUI system that let them "talk" to each other. You may have restart the GUI and log back in to get them back running ("telinit 3", then log in textually and "telinit 5"). Don't delete them in the future. If you were to "ls -l" them, you'd find that they are 0 bytes in length. They do take up an inode for the directory entry but beyond that they don't use up any space. Part of the startup process of the system (/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit) should purge /tmp of things that are transient in nature. Unfortunately, orbit-related stuff isn't one of them. It could be added fairly easily. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - grep me no patterns and I'll tell you no lines - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From rstevens at vitalstream.com Wed Mar 10 17:30:03 2004 From: rstevens at vitalstream.com (Rick Stevens) Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2004 09:30:03 -0800 Subject: RH 7.1 installation on an IBM server with 3 scsi disks In-Reply-To: <1078907518.4310.37.camel@hermes.at.home> References: <1078470212.15037.182146217@webmail.messagingengine.com> <4048B2D0.3070007@vitalstream.com> <1078732735.4331.39.camel@hermes.at.home> <404CB84A.9090500@vitalstream.com> <1078820942.4310.95.camel@hermes.at.home> <404DFD91.2020905@vitalstream.com> <1078907518.4310.37.camel@hermes.at.home> Message-ID: <404F509B.2010602@vitalstream.com> Andrew Kelly wrote: {heavily edited for length] > On Tue, 2004-03-09 at 18:23, Rick Stevens wrote: >>Uhm, I'm sorry to have sounded so "high and mighty".

While it's called the "redhat install list" (inferring newbies get help here), there's also a large number of pros such as you and I (and others). Being old hands, It's easy to forget that the new folk are seeing these too, and we must be careful to not let them shoot themselves in the foot.

Newbies tend to use it because a) other things have "telnet interfaces" and they want to get at them, and b) they don't understand the inherent danger in it. What's truly scary is that even though the vast majority of Unix/Linux flavors default to having telnetd disabled, there are so many people who want to enable it. It's disabled for a very, very good reason (the same reason that has caused fingerd, rdated and a host of others to be disabled). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - I don't suffer from insanity...I enjoy every minute of it! - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From mknecht at controlnet.com Wed Mar 10 21:38:14 2004 From: mknecht at controlnet.com (Mark Knecht) Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2004 13:38:14 -0800 Subject: Disabling certain PCI devices Message-ID: <404F8AC6.5030406@controlnet.com> Hi, I'm wondering if anyone (Rick, Bob, anyone...) knows how to tell Linux to disable a certain PCI device prior to the time drivers get loaded? For instance, 00:0a.2 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Creative Labs SB Audigy FireWire Port 00:0b.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments TSB12LV23 IEEE-1394 Controller PCI device 00:0a:2 should be disabled, but 00:0b:0 should be allowed to work. I have this problematic 1394 adapter that is part of the sound card. It doesn't work correctly under Linux. I have the other 1394 adapter that does. They both use the same driver. (1394OHCI) The bad adapter throws lots of messages into /var/log and uses about 5% of my CPU all the time. Bummer. I want to leave the sound card in in the system as the sound part works fine under Alsa. How can I do what Windows Device Manager does where I can tell it not to load a driver for a specific card. In Windows I can have 3 OHCI adapters in the box, but I can create a Hardware Profile that enables different adapters, or I can load different drivers for different cards. I cannot figure out how to do this under Linux, and the 1394 developers are telling me they think it cannot be done. Just wondering if anyone here has a solution to this sort of problem.

What about source rpms, built on the older OS? I assume that if the build dependencies are satisfied, there should be no problem, right?

Try editing /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.pcimap and deleting the line that correponds to the device you want to disable.

I wouldn't bother with the SRPM. I'd download Perl v5.8.3 from http://www.perl.org or one of its mirrors, and build it from scratch. Tell it to install in /usr, not /usr/local, so that it installs over your existing 5.8.0. That's what I've done with all of my RH 9 machines until I upgrade to FC1.

I'm sort of assuming that having all f's is an indictation that this driver should load for all OHCI devices? Would I change the vendor/device values on the ohci1394 line to match the TI chip and then possibly nothing would get loaded for the Creative Labs?

I believe it's a bitmask that's ANDed with the vendor and device fields, so yes, it's a wildcard, in this case, controlled by the "class" bit. > Would I change the vendor/device values on the ohci1394 line to match > the TI chip and then possibly nothing would get loaded for the Creative > Labs?

You need to get the vendor, device and subvendor, subdevice values (lspci -vn) and stuff them into it. I'd copy the line, comment out the copy (just in case), then change the original to reflect it. For example, my laptop has this: # lspci -v (snip) 00:0e.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): NEC Corporation: Unknown device 00e7 (rev 01) (prog-if 10 [OHCI]) Subsystem: Fujitsu Limited.: Unknown device 11a0 (snip) The ID is "00:0e.0", so look for that in the "-vn" output: # lspci -vn (snip) 00:0e.0 Class 0c00: 1033:00e7 (rev 01) (prog-if 10) Subsystem: 10cf:11a0 (snip) So I'd change the line to read: ohci1394 0x00001033 0x000000e7 0x000010cf 0x000011a0 0x000c0010 \ 0x00ffffff 0x00000000 I think that'd do it. Your mileage may vary. By the way, a similar mechanism is used for USB devices, but you'd use the data from "lsusb" for the vendor and device IDs and the file format is a bit different. Hey, kernel hacking has its benefits! You get to find all these obscure little things. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Heisenberg _may_ have slept here - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From rstevens at vitalstream.com Thu Mar 11 00:56:26 2004 From: rstevens at vitalstream.com (Rick Stevens) Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2004 16:56:26 -0800 Subject: Adaptec AHA1540/2 SCSI card and 5 drives...

The 1540 is an older controller (an ISA board if I'm right). If the installer showed you disks at all (they'd be called "sda1", "sda2" etc.), then the driver is loaded (you should have seen something like "Loading aha1542 driver" in a blue box when the installer was loading). The problem probably is that there's no free space on the drives. You said you formatted the drives under DOS 6.22, which means you created a bunch of DOS (called "FAT") partitions. Linux wants either Linux partitions or uncommitted (free) space. When you tell Linux to autopartition, it can't because all of the space on the drives is committed to these DOS (FAT) partitions. Instead of autopartitioning, select each drive individually and delete ALL of the FAT partitions on them. You can then either manually set up your partitions or allow Linux to autopartition. The important thing is that you need empty space. And you really should use a later version of Red Hat. 6.2 is truly ancient and uses the old 2.2-series kernels which are much slower and less secure than the 2.4-series. Download Red Hat 9 or Fedora Core and install that.

Rick, I tried this on my Gentoo box where I'm having the problem. It didn't seem to work. Then for kicks I tried both rmmod'ing ohci1394 and rebooting. Neither worked either. Then I looked at the file again and found the edits were gone! This might be a Gentoo thing, but are these files static or built at boot time.

Thus it may not be shipped with the free linux distributions. The format Ogg Vobis is free. If you still want mp3 then you can add it back into xmms by installing the xmms-mp3 rpm from: http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/freshrpms/redhat/9/xmms-mp3/ but be aware that you should be paying a royalty. By the way, a google search of "redhat xmms mp3" brought the above url as the first item.

What will be the > extension of executable file??? > reply soon......... Dany, Filename extensions are not so important in unix as MS windows (OK, its a generalisation). Any file may be made executable by setting its executable bit. If you do a "ls -l" to list a directory then the read, write and execute bits are shown on the left. Do a "man chmod" to find out more. The usual program installer on RedHat is RPM (which stood for "Redhat Package Manager"). They now allow others to use it and it has its own web site http://www.rpm.org There are several ways of installing programs, but the easiest is to get a binary rpm file of the program you want for your particular linux distribution (e.g. RH9) and install it. There will also be source rpms, but unless you need to source code (not an option with MS windows) there is no need to install it, stick to the binary rpms. Yes, in RH9 there is a GUI tool for doing this, its on the menu System Settings -> Add/Remove Applications. Remember that you get thousands of programs with RH9, so the chances are you may already have what you are looking for. Its not like MS windows where you only get the basic operating system and a few applications.

There are many flavours of unix besides the different flavours of linux and a tarball may need considerable configuring for the particular linux you have. Using a binary rpm for the particular distribution is much less risky, particularly for those new to linux. Also, using a rpm means that it will be noted in the rpm database thus it can be uninstalled. Tarballs will not go into that database and thus cannot be removed from the System Settings -> Add/Remove Applications menu item. I'm not suggesting that tarballs should not be used, just that a rpm for the particular distribution is going to be easier and safer.

Dany, I agree with Chris that rpms are easier to install and less likely to have problems during installation. I assumed that this media player you were trying to install was only available as "tarballs" (.tgz or tar.gz files) since you said you'd downloaded a tarball to install from. But if you can find rpm files to install from, that is often better and easier, as Christ noted.

The values are set (in my case) in one of the source code files for the 1394 stack. To change this behaviour under Gentoo I have to modify that file (in this case ohci1394.c) and rebuild the kernel. (Or at least the driver.) The modules.pcimap file is then created by a depmod command at boot time I'm told. It is interesting that on Redhat the modules.pcimap does appear to be static, so I guess I could possibly just edit the file on that machine. I suspect that maybe somewhere in the modules_install step there may be a similar depmod that builds this? Thanks for your help!

It's a set of python scripts that set up a number of things the first time a system is booted. Briefly it allows you to: Select the language Set the keyboard type Set the mouse type Set the root password Add additional users Set up the firewall Register with the up2date service Load additional RPMs from the CDs It only runs in run level 5 (GUI mode) and only if there's no /etc/sysconfig/firstboot file that contains the line: RUN_FIRSTBOOT=NO If you can get your setup scripts to do the stuff necessary to do all that, then the last thing it should do is: echo "RUN_FIRSTBOOT=NO" >/etc/sysconfig/firstboot and firstboot won't run. Make sure the firewall is configured and that the root password is set at a minimum should you decide to bypass firstboot. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - We are born naked, wet and hungry.

There's a program called "gen-devlist" that gets built during the kernel build. It appears to create the file by reading a "pci.ids" file that's in the /usr/src/linux/drivers/pci directory. It's run during the PCI and zorro driver builds to create the devlist.h files. I suspect those files are copied during the modules_install. Most of the gory details about what happens when is spelled out in the "/usr/src/linux/Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt" file. It may be a good idea for you to have a read of that. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - 500: Internal Fortune Cookie Error - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From kostassf at cha.forthnet.gr Fri Mar 12 01:01:17 2004 From: kostassf at cha.forthnet.gr (Kostas Sfakiotakis) Date: Fri, 12 Mar 2004 03:01:17 +0200 Subject: Getting Java Plugins to Run with Mozilla in RH 9 In-Reply-To: <404CB589.9090305@vitalstream.com> References: <404A6AA2.5060608@nauticom.net> <404CB589.9090305@vitalstream.com> Message-ID: <40510BDD.8050806@cha.forthnet.gr> Rick Stevens wrote: > rab wrote: > >> I'm not sure why java is so problematic in RH Linux.

I've used xine as a DVD player but I've limited experience of it as I don't have a DVD player any more (it lasted the guarantee period then....). Other people will give you their favourites and experiences I'm sure. Ah. You understand the difference between rpms and tarballs, good. The answer is that it just depends on what the tarball author wrote. You don't give us any information on what your modem is (I'm guessing its a winmodem), or what driver tarball you have. If googling around has not yielded anyone who has reported experiences on installing that tarball on RH9 then you could do a new post to the list asking (preferably in the subject). Unfortunately, I've no experience of winmodems (I've stuck to full modems) so I'm going to be of limited help to you on this one.

The rest > of the panel is visible all the time, by the way . Yes, that's the "panel". Check on the far right of the panel and see if there's a thin vertical bar with something that looks like a hatch pattern in it. If so, drag it to the left and see if your application list window shows up again. If it does, stretch it to the size you want and let go of the left mouse button. You should then be able to right click on that section to pop up a menu. Select "Move" and it'll track the mouse movement on the panel. Move it to where you want on the panel, then left click to release it. Save your session when you're done. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Try to look unimportant.

Generally speaking, the tarball will contain a README file and an INSTALL file that tell you what to do. You will need to have the gcc system installed (the C compiler). Find or create a scratch directory somewhere (I generally create a "/usr/xxx" directory for that sort of thing). Move the tarball to that directory and "cd" to the directory. The command to unpack a tarball is "tar xzf filename.tar.gz" or "tar xzf filename.tgz". That will unpack the contents of the tarball into the current directory, but leave the tarball itself untouched (in case something goes wrong and you need to start over). After the command completes, "cd" to the directory the unpack created and look for the "INSTALL" file. Read it. Generally, the sequence of operations for tarball installs are: 1. Unpack it (you've already done that) 2. "cd" to the working directory (again, you've done that) 3. Run "./configure" to configure the source code 4. Run "make" to build the binary 5. Run "make install" to install the binary code This should be detailed in the INSTALL file. Again, these are general guidelines. Any individual package may vary, somtimes significantly, from what I've described above. Good luck. Let us know if you have more problems. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - When you don't know what to do, walk fast and look worried. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From b06gtp at FDS.com Fri Mar 12 17:10:26 2004 From: b06gtp at FDS.com (Gene Poole) Date: Fri, 12 Mar 2004 12:10:26 -0500 Subject: Gene Poole/FSG/FDS is out of the office.

First, try "ifconfig -a" and see if the device shows up as a network adaptor (it'd be called "ethx", "pppx", "wlanx" or something like that, with the "x" replaced by a decimal digit). Remember that "lo" is the local loopback and will be displayed regardless of the presence of another device. If it doesn't show up, try "lsusb" to see what the system thinks the device is. You might post the bit that describes that device. Once we know that, we may be able to help. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - You know the old saying--any technology sufficiently advanced is - - indistinguishable from a Perl script - - --Programming Perl, 2nd Edition - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From rstevens at vitalstream.com Fri Mar 12 17:19:24 2004 From: rstevens at vitalstream.com (Rick Stevens) Date: Fri, 12 Mar 2004 09:19:24 -0800 Subject: erratic grub In-Reply-To: <1079109761.4313.13.camel@localhost.localdomain> References: <1079109761.4313.13.camel@localhost.localdomain> Message-ID: <4051F11C.6010409@vitalstream.com> Fred Grant wrote: > Grub usually boots my rh9 from hd0 ok but sometimes tries to boot from > hd1.

The most common problem here is that you're using cable select on your drives rather than hard jumpering them. hd0 should be hard jumpered to "master", hd1 to "slave". NEVER, EVER depend on cable select. Whoever spins up first becomes the master drive with that. Bad, bad idea. Spectacularly stupid, in fact.

We might be able to wrapper the drivers from Windows for it, a'la ndiswrapper. The thing to see is if linux understands it at all. We may be able to come up with a workaround. If not, then I'd look at dumping that device and buying some wireless stuff. IIRC, you have a DSL modem that connects to the phone line. This USB adapter ties you into that modem by use of standard telco wire rather than CAT5.

But i'm gonna bite the bullet and pay for an ethernet card. I'm not bugging around with that little rakker anymore. I ran the check, and it sees the 2wire thingy as a modem, a dialup modem that's constantly busy. So, thanks again, sorry for the wild goose chase.

The panel is visible all the time. It shows various icons on the left, another couple of icons on the right and my digital clock, and two vertical bars at the extreme RH edge, one with a left facing small solid triangle, the other with a right facing one. Between the two groups of icons (roughly in the middle of the panel) is a representation of four windows in a small 2x2 rectangle and then my application list window. The problem is that the application list window has stopped showing me which applications are active. If I click in the window they all appear. But I would like to have them as they were, visible all the time.

I can't reproduce the behavior you describe, but maybe you can just remove what you have and restart the Tasklist applet. To remove: right-click on the stippled edge of the tasklist, and then click on "remove from panel" To re-add: click on the Main menu (Gnome footprint), go to Applets - Utility, click on Tasklist. To adjust properties: right-click on the stippled edge of the tasklist, left-click "Properties". There are 2^10 possible combinations of the first 10 properties, so its no wonder I couldn't reproduce your problem.

What browser? I don't know if they all use the same file (they jolly well should), but try editing your ~/.mailcap file. I know Netscape and Mozilla use it.

Toshiba ToPIC97 bridges also seem to have problems, particularly with Cardbus cards. Prognosis: I think the O2Micro problems should now be fixed. For the ToPIC problem, Toshiba does not seem willing and/or able to provide adequate help, so I've mostly given up on it. For both the O2Micro and ToPIC problems, fixes would require someone with device driver experience and the relevant hardware to work on it: data sheets are available, and I can make suggestions of things to try, but I can't debug the problems by email.

The PATH is probably the problem and needs to be edited. You'd be a hero if you could tell me how to use the gui text editor to do it (even how to find the file PATH is in). I'm not ready for vi yet! There must be a reason you are using AfterStep. If it's more user friendly I'd like to look into it.

There are several experts that frequent this list, but not usually on weekends. (Rick Stevens, call your office. :-) Either wait for them to collect their weekend mail, or re-post your problem on Monday. Ain't nuthin' perfect (not even Linux), but there's likely help enough here to get you started. I'm not that bright, but here's my first shot at your problem, as best as I recall it. Get into your BIOS and try toggling the state of "legacy USB support", that is, if it was on, turn it off. That may not be applicable to your problem, given that you are using an external PS/2 keyboard, but, well, I said I wasn't that bright.

I'm > not ready for vi yet! Neither am I. IMHO, vi is a primitive (and arcane) editor that you use while you're getting Emacs installed. (Excuse me while I go change into my Nomex BVDs.) That said, Emacs isn't exactly for the newbie, either. But, for text editors, pico is very friendly. Now, about PATH. In general, your PATH is set from /etc/profile. That will include at least /bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin and probably some X11/bin as well. Mine at the moment is $ echo $PATH /usr/local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/bob/bin:/home/bob/bin Hmm. I just noticed that I have /usr/local/bin in there three times. And ~/bin twice. Ought to fix that. The best place to augment your PATH is in your ~/.profile or ~/.bash_profile. If you have both files, add it in both. I think your GUI will come up after reading .profile, but bash (your command-line shell) will prefer .bash_profile. Let's suppose you want to add /opt/bin to your PATH. Do it this way: PATH=$PATH:/opt/bin Two notes: Windoze (and DOS before it) users are used to having "." (the current directory) in their PATH. In UNIX/Linux, that is considered a Bad Idea(tm), especially for root, because some unscrupulous (l)user (or cracker) could stick a script in your HOME directory, say, "ls". Then when you run "ls" to get a directory listing, you are executing who knows what. Second, if your PATH contains "::" in the middle or ":" at the beginning or end, you have included the current directory. The ":" is a PATH separator, and a null entry is the same as ".". > There must be a reason you are using AfterStep. If it's more user > friendly I'd like to look into it. No, I wouldn't say it's more user friendly, but it does occupy a smaller footprint (no GNOME pun intended :-). It comes up faster, supports virtual desktops (desktops larger than your screen), and partial panning of the desktop. Current stable version is 1.8.11, but 2.0beta4 is available. (I'm using 1.8.11 - the beta has a few major problems for me.) Both can be found at http://www.afterstep.org/ GNOME and KDE are better for the transition from Windoze, but there are many other options available. I'll not give web sites since you can Google for them easily. The lightweight screamers are BlackBox, IceWM, WindowMaker, FluxBox, and twm. When you start them up, you'll be saying, "Is that it? Is it done, already?" Next up the scale might be FVWM(2) and AfterStep. There are likely others, but I've played around with all those. AS is still my preferred WM. If you play with any of those, also get MenuMaker (mmaker is the executable). It scans the executables in your PATH and makes menu entries for all the ones it recognises. Most but not all of those WMs are supported by mmaker. The others have adequate documentation to figure out how to roll your own. > Thanks again Whew!

If you don't need it for the purposes of your "rescue", say "no". IIRC you wanted to use parted. You might look at Appendix G.3 of The Fine Manual http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/install-guide/ for some useful info. IIRC, you're using Fedora Core 1, but it's still applicable. > I will search around a bit and see if I can figure out what that does. > > couldn't find anything on it. > the regular install instructions in my book don't mention it > so I will say no.

I used the NTFS resizing utility (not parted, I believe it was Cfdisk or something like that) in the Live-CD Knoppix distribution to successfully resize my laptop NTFS Win XP partition so I could load linux on the last 20 GB. It was a new PC and I did a scandisk and defrag prior to the attempt at resize. Good Luck.

Legacy USB is the most likely, however it is also possible that DMA operations on the CD can be causing the issue.

It's not the PC that's the problem, it's the chipset for the card that's the issue. You can get a different PCMCIA card cheaply and go with that. You'll run into this in several areas. There are a lot of chip makers that won't release chip specs to the open source community to allow an open source driver to be written. They seem to think that Microsoft is the be-all and end-all. While they can make some legal justifications (e.g. making a wireless chipset to send data on a bogus frequency), but I think that most of them are specious arguments. Just because the driver is closed source (e.g. Microsoft or Mac) doesn't mean a talented programmer can't do just as much damage on those OSes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - The light at the end of the tunnel is really an oncoming train. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From yanpeng at mx.cei.gov.cn Tue Mar 16 05:21:02 2004 From: yanpeng at mx.cei.gov.cn (yanpeng) Date: Tue, 16 Mar 2004 13:21:2 +0800 Subject: How to set the RH boot from a new disk?

Try booting with linux ide=nodma Also, for your first install, use ext2 partitions instead of the default ext3. You can convert to ext3 after the install. For more clues about installation snags, see http://www.rhil.net/docs/faq.html#install_dies Also, note that most older machines will not boot to a drive on the secondary controller (hdc or hdd). You may have to move it to be a slave on the primary controller (hdb). Also, on your drives, do not jumper them to CS (Cable Select). CS is evil. Explicitly jumper them as (MA)ster or (SL)ave.

The problem does NOT occur with the production kernel--just the installer. Try the install again, but specify ext2 filesystems rather than the default ext3. Once the install is complete, you can convert to ext3 filesystems by following the instructions at: http://www.rhil.net/docs/ext2-to-ext3.html > Also, note that most older machines will not boot to a drive on the > secondary controller (hdc or hdd).

If I were to re-install RedHat 9 what kinds of problems would I have (I've gone through quite a few up2dates and Xiaman updates). The same danger you have with any upgrade. Back up your data and do a fresh install, but do NOT let the system reformat your disk partitions. Leave them alone (that should leave your user data alone for the most part, but there's no guarantee) and simply do an install. As for the updates, I just pull all of the "i386" and "noarch" update RPMs (except for the ones that start with "kernel-") off one of the mirrors (I use kernel.org's mirror) and stick them on a CD. I do a mass update by: # mount /dev/cdrom # rpm -Fvh /mnt/cdrom/*.rpm I then pull down the kernel RPM I want and "rpm -ivh kernel-*.rpm". Note that the latest iptables RPM probably won't install until you upgrade the kernel as they have a dependency.

The Red Hat list couldn't give me any suggestions and the Xiaman list just suggested I upgrade as the version of Evolution that came with Red Hat was old. Hmmm. Strange.

You should "ls -l /usr/lib/m*" and see what the link for mozilla is. Then check the destination directory and verify that its "plugins" directory isn't empty. You may want to check one of the other mozilla directories (depending on which version of mozilla you have installed) and possibly reset the link to that directory.

Problem is now I've got so much into the information on the hard drives and setup's I really hate to go backwards anymore. But it's always a great learning experience. Well, as I said, you can do a fresh install but do NOT let the system reformat the partitions. That will preserve what's already there (your data) but reinstall all of RH9. You should still back up your /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow and /etc/group files, though, as the new install may wipe the old ones out. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Whoever said "Money can't buy friends" obviously never brought - - donuts to the office. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From yanpeng at mx.cei.gov.cn Wed Mar 17 03:14:11 2004 From: yanpeng at mx.cei.gov.cn (yanpeng) Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2004 11:14:11 +0800 Subject: What kind of RAID software is suitable for RH 5.2 ?

For posterity the solution evolved as follows-: Trying the suggestion of partitioning the hard disk with ext2 rather than ext3 caused the format phase of installation to succeed. However, installation progressed only up to the window "Setting up RPM Transactions". At this point I received the dreaded signal 11 error. Following the links to the Red Hat Installation Manual led to the solution. Using mem=64M in the boot: line! I have read the wonderful page on this error and doesn't it give you the "Tom Tits"! I had checked the memory with Memtest86 (and even returned 1 stick that had proved faulty). I can now install, still on ext 3, but throttle back the memory.

I have a cd provided by modem manufacturer for drivers which has drivers for linux also. But it has given drivers for linux 7.0 and 7.2 so will they work with RH9? Leaving that apart according to insturctions given by them i tried to install the driver ,but i gives me a following error & halts (after many lines displayed) : (last two lines).. "checking for /usr/src/linux/include/linux/modversions.h .....no configure:error:modversions.h is missing-you should configure your kernel first!" now can u tell me what must have went wrong!! I even have downloaded the latest driver from net but even it gives me the same error at the end. i have even tried running rpm package of my modem driver which i downloaded from net and everything went right!! But linux still doesn;t detect my modem. if in future everything goes well according to instrucations given, is my modem ready for use???

That's true. And the only RAID is hardware RAID. Virtually all software RAID packages require the 2.2.x or 2.4.x kernels and 5.2 has no way to boot a software RAID.

Find the line with the same ID (i2H4RL7T002761) that contains the DSN information. That will tell us what the error was. Since you're on Comcast, it's entirely possible that they've started blocking outgoing port 25 to anything outside their network.

To test, bring up an xterm and enter: telnet smtp.root-mail.com 25 If you don't get an SMTP welcome message, port 25 is being blocked and you'll need to aim your Evolution stuff to use Comcast's SMTP servers. Of course, this will screw the envelope "From:" line so it won't be your domain anymore. If you have a business connection, tell them you want port 25 opened up and leave your stuff set up the way it is. If you _do_ get an SMTP welcome message, type in "quit" to terminate the connection and send us the rest of that /var/log/maillog stuff. > -----Original Message----- > From: Andrew Kelly [mailto:akelly at transparency.org] > Sent: Wednesday, March 17, 2004 12:48 AM > To: Getting started with Red Hat Linux > Subject: Re: General Problems > > > On Tue, 2004-03-16 at 19:37, Rick Stevens wrote: > > >>Mugleston, Brad wrote: > > >>>******** >>>Error while performing operation: >>>sendmail exited with status 64: mail not sent >> >>Error 64 is "EX_USAGE", meaning that the command line sent to sendmail >>was bogus.

You must install the kernel source RPM that's appropriate for your kernel and go through (at least) the configuration and dependency build bit. Then you can install the driver. To do the kernel bit, see: http://www.rhil.net/docs/kernelbuild.html You'll need to go through step 7 in the "Build Instructions in an Nutshell" section.

The smartest thing is to throw away that beblistered winmodem and go get a real serial-port modem.

It's about bloody time they blocked outbound smtp :) I don't know for sure if that's what they're doing, but I suspect it since Brad's machine seems to be exhibiting the classic "SMTP access denied" behaviour and it _used_ to work. I think that "EX_USAGE" is the wrong error to return in these conditions. It should be "EX_UNAVAILABLE" (69), "EX_PROTOCOL" (76) or "EX_NOPERM" (77), although that last one may be deceptive as well. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Polygon: A dead parrot (With apologies to John Cleese) - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From brad.mugleston at retirementpartner.com Wed Mar 17 20:20:43 2004 From: brad.mugleston at retirementpartner.com (Mugleston, Brad) Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2004 13:20:43 -0700 Subject: General Problems Message-ID: It will probably be obvious when I get there (home) but what should it look like for each instance (using Comcast and using my sendmail). -----Original Message----- From: Rick Stevens [mailto:rstevens at vitalstream.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 17, 2004 12:42 PM To: Getting started with Red Hat Linux Subject: Re: General Problems Mugleston, Brad wrote: > I'll check again tonight but I believe this was everything in this log file from about 21:16 (the entry just before this one) to the end of the log file. > > As far as I know I don't have PINE or the email part of Mozilla pointed anywhere other than my machine (SMTP) when sending email.

We called Comcast that day. The tech support people couldn't figure out why I had no connectivity. They said they could talk to my cable modem so they said the problem was my D-Link firewall. They told me to run to the store and buy another one. I didn't rush to do that... From work later that morning I tried getting into email over the web. I got nothing but messages about the network getting an upgrade. I couldn't get email. Later that afternoon my wife called to tell me the network at home came up. Around that same time I could first get email over the web and I also was able to ssh into my home network. (ssh was a delay since I use no-ip which had to get my new IP and propagate it out to DNS. Now, I'm pretty sure their tech support people really knew what they were talking about,that my firewall broke and magically fixed itself, and the email upgrade and my ending up with a new IP address just happened to be going on at the same time.

They meshed the network and probably put the block on port 25. BTW, we do all of Comcast's FLASH streaming now. We stream about 30TB per month for them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - If you can't beat your computer at chess...try kickboxing! - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From info at cmis-inc.com Wed Mar 17 23:01:14 2004 From: info at cmis-inc.com (Info) Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2004 15:01:14 -0800 Subject: Bad Monitor Message-ID: <421126AA4F76B940A6FCAF8F979C01360E4AEA@cmis.cmis-inc.com> I've changed monitors on a Redhat 8 system.

Switch to the blinky monitor and hit CTRL-ALT-F12 (yes, hold CTRL AND ALT and hit F12), then ALT-F1 to get a text login screen. Log in as root and run redhat-config-xfree86.

This setup is for a simple client which should send all mail to our mail hub, qualify all names with our domain and rewrite hosts with the domain. E.g. a userid should be re-written as userid at domain, userid at host.domain should be re-written as userid at domain. I've very nearly got it working, but I cannot get sendmail to use the correct envelope recipient when it's unqualified. It insists on using the FQDN of the mail hub even though I've specified the masquerade_envelope FEATURE (this doesn't appear to do anything). Can anyone enlighten me as to what the magic incantation of sendmail mc define/features is to get it to do this? I've tried MAIL_HUB and LOCAL_RELAY, which both seem to do the same. SMARTHOST won't relay unqualified addresses.

Many folks won't read HTML. Up to you, but you'll get more answers. Also, you'll eventually get scolded for top posting on this list. Personalyl I don't care, but this list works that way. I am concerned that you have multiple hard drive controllers in this machine and that the RH installation kernel is getting confused and going to one you don't really want it to use. It is not standard for the main system EIDE controller to reside on IRQ5. However, it is possible for secondary EIDE controllers, such as Promise or CMD to do so. Can you provide some info on the hardware? What computer manuafacturer or motherboard model is this? In Windows what devices are assigned to what interrupts? There is an option in RH kernels to tell it to boot the on-board or system EIDE controllers first. Possibly the system is defaulting to the wrong one for your hardware. I don't remember the languange that turns that off, but you might Google for kernel boot options and see if you can find it.

You will need to comment that out. If all your mail "up" the network and receiving "from" the network is via your mail hub then I think that smart_host is what you want (its what I use). You will also need to tell it the computers/domains that you relay for (or it will not accept mail from them). My sendmail is fairly old now (prior to the split with submit.mc) so things have changed a bit. Unfortunately, I don't have time now to look further now, but I'll happily send you my mc file privately if it will help. It deals with all email on my local lan and sends it to my isp, masquerading it.

I don't think you've gotten that far before your system dies. Also, some folks have problems installing Redhat on machines with 1394 adapters. Not all machines have this problem, but it has come up. If that might be an issue for you, then you might also try the nofirewire option. (Check the wording. That's from memory.)

It's a simple client which I want to send all mail to the mailhub, so it shouldn't listen on anything other than the loopback interface. I tried SMARTHOST, but that wouldn't deliver unqualified mail to the SMARTHOST, it delivered it locally, which isn't what I want. I have a sendmail.cf script myself which I've been using for years for this purpose. It was hand written before the days of m4 macros. I'm trying to bring it into the 21st century, but sendmail/m4 isn't helping. It's these pointlessly frustrating things about sendmail which have made me switch from sendmail to exim on the mail hub. Exim does what the documentation says it will, and the configuration directives do what you expect them to. -- Nigel Wade, System Administrator, Space Plasma Physics Group, University of Leicester, Leicester, LE1 7RH, UK E-mail : nmw at ion.le.ac.uk Phone : +44 (0)116 2523548, Fax : +44 (0)116 2523555 From fdgrant at powercom.net Thu Mar 18 16:52:25 2004 From: fdgrant at powercom.net (Fred Grant) Date: 18 Mar 2004 10:52:25 -0600 Subject: file types and programs Message-ID: <1079628745.3692.10.camel@localhost.localdomain> I'm still having a problem getting Adobe Acrobat to be included as a viewer of pdf files on rh9 GNOME.

The problem is on the client's automount config.

Darius, First, try to bottom post (put your comments AFTER what you're commenting on). It makes reading the messages easier. And try not to use HTML posting, use plain text. Can you give us a better idea as to exactly what your system looks like. We need things such as: Motherboard make and type CPU type and number (Xeon, Athlon, dual Xeons, etc). RAM size (512MB, whatever) Disk layout (80GB IDE as primary master, DVD as primary slave) External devices (USB, Firewire, etc.) This can help us sort out what's going on. If it is a SMP box (multi processor), you might also try adding the "noapic" option to the boot command line. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Mark Knecht > Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2004 17:57:12 -0800 > To: Getting started with Red Hat Linux > Subject: Re: RedHat Linux installation stops with no error at a very > earlystage. > > > On Wed, 2004-03-17 at 17:36, Di Ar wrote: > > > > > > > > > Hello Everyone! > > > > > > I am not getting far with installing RedHat Linux on my PC.

If you did the "ls -ld /usr/lib/mozilla*", you may have seen this at the end of one of the lines: /usr/lib/mozilla -> mozilla-1.4.2 If so, you don't need to change anything as putting the link in mozilla-1.4.2/plugins is the same thing as mozilla/plugins. Symbolic links are aliases, meaning that "/usr/lib/mozilla" is just another name for "/usr/lib/mozilla-1.4.2". Mozilla is run as "/usr/lib/mozilla/mozilla", so having "/usr/lib/mozilla" point at the current version makes it easy to upgrade versions, but still be able to go back to a previous version if the new one doesn't work. This is done by installing in a new /usr/lib/mozilla-(version)" directory and changing the symbolic link. If you don't like it, change the symbolic link back to the previous version. For example, here's what I have (cleaned up to fit the display): [root at prophead root]# ls -ld /usr/lib/mozilla* /usr/lib/mozilla -> mozilla-1.6 /usr/lib/mozilla-1.2.1 /usr/lib/mozilla-1.4 /usr/lib/mozilla-1.5 /usr/lib/mozilla-1.6 So, I have versions of Mozilla from 1.2.1 through 1.6, but the active one is 1.6. Symbolic links are special files. "rm" will delete them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - To understand recursion, you must first understand recursion. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From rstevens at vitalstream.com Thu Mar 18 20:03:50 2004 From: rstevens at vitalstream.com (Rick Stevens) Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2004 12:03:50 -0800 Subject: RH 9 automount resets and cron.daily In-Reply-To: <49F73BEED865D3119F8700902773C9F903D0E6F0@exchange09.rl.ac.uk> References: <49F73BEED865D3119F8700902773C9F903D0E6F0@exchange09.rl.ac.uk> Message-ID: <405A00A6.1050908@vitalstream.com> Chiu, PCM (Peter) wrote: > Thanks, Rick, > > The auto.master contains the switch --timeout=300. > > That means it should timeout every 5 minutes, after that, > the client will umount an idle nfs file system. > > But what I don't quite follow is that why the automount reset at > 04:02:00 every day? > > I have seen this on more than one systems that have unrelated NFS > file systems served with automout. > > Their system logs record the same automout reset at the same time?

"rm" will delete them. My system is presently using gcc-2.3.2 as shown: [root at redhat90 plugins]# ls /lib/libc-* /lib/libc-2.3.2.so I guess I am using the incorrect version and I need to point to "ns610" /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_03/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so so if I use the [root at redhat90 plugins]# rm /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_03/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so rm: remove regular file `/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_03/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so'?

Is there a way to know this ? The dependency tree says that only xemacs requires canna, but I don't think it truly does. Just shut down canna if you don't want it running. You could probably just "rpm -e --nodeps" Canna and deal with the consequences (which won't be much unless you use xemacs to enter Japanese data). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Blech!

Hi Rick, What about the libc-2.3.2 version that I'm using [root at redhat90 plugins]# ls /lib/libc-* /lib/libc-2.3.2.so I'm not using libc-3.2? (if there is such a thing?) or am I missing something with the conventions? Does this not matter? Is there a difference between "ns610-gcc32" and "ns610"? /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_03/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so Thanks...

You're fine. > or am I missing something with the conventions? Does this not matter? You're missing something. Read on. > Is there a difference between "ns610-gcc32" and "ns610"? Yes, there is, but it's not the glibc version you need to worry about, it's the gcc compiler. If you do "gcc -v" and see "gcc version 3.2.2" in the last line, then use the "ns610-gcc32" version. If it comes back with "gcc version 2.96", then use the "ns610" version. Red Hat switched from the 2.96-series of C compilers to the 3.2-series with Red Hat 7.3 (I think). There are a number of differences in external linkages, variable placement, stack usage and other things between them, hence the two different modules--one compliant with the old 2.96 stuff and one compliant with the current 3.2 stuff. Unless you're running a partially upgraded Red Hat 7.2 or eariler system, use the ns610-gcc32 version. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Grabel's Law: 2 is not equal to 3--not even for large values of 2. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From egamez at bonheur.com.ph Fri Mar 19 00:36:05 2004 From: egamez at bonheur.com.ph (Toto Gamez) Date: Fri, 19 Mar 2004 08:36:05 +0800 Subject: Internet browsing References: <20040318220520.B6F22739D3@hormel.redhat.com> Message-ID: <00e201c40d4a$29dbace0$0b65a8c0@netctr.bonheur.com.ph> Hi, I had setup RH72 as my internet server using ip forwarding attached to internet via dsl using rpppoe and its working fine except that it disconnected easily. my problem I have win2kpro connected to lan and browse the internet tru its RH72 as its gateway, win2kpro's dns is also setup it can ping any internet ip's in command prompt but cant browse the internet using ie6, when i tried to put internet ip on ie6 the page was displayed correctly but when I tried to click a link page cannot be displayed. what must be the problem on my win2k pro all other win client with the same setup can browse the internet without hassle. any thoughs thanks and more power Toto -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The problem is that the server - (usually lightning speed) will go into freeze or just take a break for a few seconds. A couple of times, I've had to power off to clear it, but other times, after 5 to 30 seconds it will take off again. The easiest way to test it has been to tar cz a group of large directories while running top in another window. I notice that several times, I get about 500 -600 MB gets created, then suddenly the tar job will pause (on a 1 or 3 MB file), top will show processor speed dropped from 50% down to 0%, and the keyboard will even hang, nothing seems to happen. Just as suddenly, the tar job will usually (eventually) take off again, the terminal window shows the keys I had typed during the "hung" time, and top will again show tar sucking 40-60% processor. Last night while I tested it, I observed this at least 10 times in as many minutes... No errors present in /var/log/messages.

That's the way it works. PATH is not "persistent". It lasts only for that shell and any subshells. When you exit the shell and/or log out, the next time you log in or bring up a shell, your PATH is set by a combination of /etc/profile, /etc/bashrc, ~/.profile, ~/.bash_profile, and ~/.bashrc.

While we were moving we also upgraded it a newer version of mailman which brought about many different changes. On that note, there is a "List-Id" header which is placed on all of the mailing lists hosted by Red Hat Inc. Example for redhat-install-list: List-Id: Getting started with Red Hat Linux There is also a "X-BeenThere" header which is placed on all of the mailing lists hosted by Red Hat Inc. Example for redhat-install-list: X-BeenThere: redhat-install-list at redhat.com Finally there is a "X-Loop" header which is on most of the mailing lists hosted by Red Hat Inc. Example for redhat-install-list: X-Loop: redhat-install-list All of these can be used for filtering on. You probably will need to create a custom field to do this.

One observation about getting Java into your path. The way I've typically seen Java installed on Unix systems is to put a particular version directly under usr, then create a symlink "java" to it. The RPM installer will place the version *under* /usr/java, so from within /usr you can do this: mv java/j2sdk1.4.2_03 . rmdir java ln -s java/j2sdk1.4.2_03 java Then just put /usr/java/bin in your path. The reason for doing this is so that all your Java code is now version independent; you can install a new version, change the symlink, and carry on. -- Guy Rouillier From rstevens at vitalstream.com Sat Mar 20 00:35:09 2004 From: rstevens at vitalstream.com (Rick Stevens) Date: Fri, 19 Mar 2004 16:35:09 -0800 Subject: Java Virtual Machine In-Reply-To: <20040319181804.00007bd5@ma1033> References: <1079725754.2127.98.camel@redhat90> <405B686B.9070606@vitalstream.com> <20040319181804.00007bd5@ma1033> Message-ID: <405B91BD.5040807@vitalstream.com> Guy Rouillier wrote: > On Fri, 19 Mar 2004 13:38:51 -0800 > Rick Stevens wrote: > >>Paths are set up in several places.

The convention, as I have seen it practiced in RedHat, is that distribution stuff goes into /usr, and stuff you've added by building and installing from a tarball goes into /usr/local. If you get into lots of partitioning, that's why I make /usr/local a separate partition.

That's a rather obscure location. And since it is external to the RedHat installation, I'd put it in /usr/local/bin. That is normally in everybody's PATH, so nothing special needs to be done with that. I don't understand what the "Link Folder (Home) or ..." is about. If you want a shortcut to that, I'd put it in the toolbar at the bottom, or you could add a menu item for it. I don't think I'd let the installation program do any of that, because it probably doesn't know how, and might well do something undesireable.

It is for fixed _data_, not executables. Hats off to you, by the way, for looking up the FHS. So /usr/share/ would be appropriate for putting things like TypingMaster's word lists and the like. > and Game Data/Scores are to be stored in /var "... variable data files": > FHS's /var/games/ > & equivalent to Red Hat's /usr/games/ > or /usr/local/share/ > or Create in Red Hat a /var/games/ (to conform with FHS) I'm unclear what you are saying there.

This uses the initio drivers. I have got the systems to "see" the array but the one plugged into channel 1 sees only the first 6 drives and the one plugged into channel 2 sees only the last 6 drives. I need both systems to see all the drives. I get devices 1-15 when looking at the configuration tool at boot time, but with Linux system 1 the first six drives show up with 1-6 as the first drives listed and nothing for the second set, and with linux system 2 I get drives 7-13 showing up as 1-6 and nothing showing up as 7-13.

Do I have to use a > SCSI switch? (I hope not, those darn things are > expensive). I've done similar stuff but not with the Compaq device. It sounds more like a LUNning issue with the Compaq than an issue with Linux. It was with the thing I used. The storage controller, by default, presented the drives as LUNs under a single SCSI ID and split them up between the external SCSI ports. When I reconfigured it to treat the drives as individual SCSI IDs rather than LUNs and told it to make all drives available to all SCSI ports, it worked peachy. I can't recall who the maker of the device was. If it's important, I can dig it up (the unit is in storage right now as the client that used it went belly-up). If the Compaq devices is configured to present all drives to all SCSI ports, it should work. As it stands, it looks like you've got it set to split the drives beween the two SCSI ports. Since I'm not familiar with the specifics of the Compaq, I can't help beyond that other than what I said above. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Is that a buffer overflow or are you just happy to see me? - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From kgoodwin at datamarktech.com Mon Mar 22 19:25:55 2004 From: kgoodwin at datamarktech.com (Kenneth Goodwin) Date: Mon, 22 Mar 2004 14:25:55 -0500 Subject: Compaq Proliant Storage System U2 and Kouwell adapters In-Reply-To: Message-ID: from the sound of it,I believe he just needs to short cable between the two halves.

For sharing under this arrangement, there would have to be a second set of connectors Or you could do the following (modify scsi id's accordingly): Server1 Controller scsi id set to 0 cable controller to Primary IN port connector one Daisy chain using short scsi cable from Daisy chain out to daisy chain In (connector two to connector three) (This couples the two backplanes together giving you access to all drives in the array) Drives are scsci 1 through scsi 13 Server2 controller scsi id set to 15 cable controller to connector four Now both controllers will see all drives and each other. however - BOTH SERVERS CAN NOT Generally read/write to the same slices/filesystems on the disks. Otherwise you will get corrupt filesystems. Even in a READ/write server 1, read only server 2 config there are issues becuase of the server based caching. > -----Original Message----- > From: redhat-install-list-bounces at redhat.com > [mailto:redhat-install-list-bounces at redhat.com]On Behalf Of > Rick Stevens > Sent: Monday, March 22, 2004 1:49 PM > To: Getting started with Red Hat Linux > Subject: Re: Compaq Proliant Storage System U2 and Kouwell adapters > > > Michael Ault wrote: > > I am trying to configure a shared storage system using > > the Compaq Proliant Storage System U2 with Kouwell > > Scsi cards to two RedHat 3.0 AS systems.

Unfortunately it only has two. I have looked at the backplane and there are no shorting pins, no connectors to enable the sharing. The disks will be used through Oracle cluster services and ASM which allows sharing because Oracle manages the locking latching and IO using CRS and ASM services. Looks like I may need a 2X4 scsi switch to allow sharing 2 scsi arrays (one on each channel) with 4 systems. Believe me, I have investigated the obvious and the not so obvious before I posted...

USB to serial port operatons are pretty transparent. You use the usb-serial module and the ports are numbered /dev/ttyUSB0 through /dev/ttyUSB15 (by default). They work fine. I use it to talk to all kinds of stuff by running a USB-serial adaptor and minicom. > 2)Are there any issues w/ RH9 and/or FC-1 and XFree86 on WUXGA displays? > Is this really a function of XFree86 and/or graphics drivers? Depends on the graphics card on the laptop. I generally try to stay with ATI video cards, not nVidia. ATI has a better reputation as to putting their API into open source. There's an open source nVidia driver, but it often doesn't work real well with their newer chipsets. My current Fujitsu C220 laptop has an ATI chipset running at 1400x1050. Works fine, lasts a long time under FC1, kernel 2.4.22-1.2174.nptl. > 3)Anyone have any experience running RH9 / FC-1 as a base OS, and using > VMWare to host a WinXP pro OS as well? Does VMWare run happily on the > RH9 / FC-1 host OS? I dual-boot WinXP Pro and FC1 on my Fujitsu C220 Lifebook via grub. VMWare works well with RH9. There have been some issues with FC1, but they're getting worked out. As to the laptops, I used to have a Sony Vaio that ran RH9 flawlessly. My Fujitsu runs RH9 and FC1 with no problem, except that the Broadcom 802.11g wireless isn't natively suppored under either RH9 or FC1. Not to worry...I use ndiswrapper and the WinXP drivers and it works peachy. I've used various Red Hat versions on a lot of laptops. You might want to have a peek at http://www.linux-on-laptops.com for more details on what's available and any caveats you should be aware of. The most important are the video hardware, any built-in ethernet stuff and the audio. That's where you'll find the most incompatiblity issues. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Never put off 'til tommorrow what you can forget altogether! - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From mknecht at controlnet.com Mon Mar 22 14:43:13 2004 From: mknecht at controlnet.com (Mark Knecht) Date: Mon, 22 Mar 2004 06:43:13 -0800 Subject: Time to agree on time... Message-ID: <405EFB81.30904@controlnet.com> Hi, Usually I hear people complaining about how Windows messes up their clock times, but this time I get to bring up Fedora. (Or more likely my lack of knowledge, but let's stay quiet about that...) ;-) I shoehorned a copy of Fedora Core 1 onto a system this morning that was already running Gentoo. Gentoo runs with ntpd and the time has always been spot on. When I installed FC1 this morning I didn't know the ntp server name so I just set the time zone to LA and the time to 10AM. No problem. Fedora came up with the right time. However, when I went back to Gentoo the time was wrong and now shows 4 hours later than the real time. I have not booted back into Fedora yet as I don't have my email on that said, but I'd like to get this set up correctly so that time works in both environments. Currently in Gentoo /etc/rc.conf has a CLOCK="UTC" setting. I don't know where the equivalent setting would be on Fedora, but looking around it's not in rc.conf as that doesn't exist. Also, is UTC the defacto right way to do this, or is there a better, more standard way. I've never seen a good page on making this choice.

I don't have FC1 installed yet, but RH 9, and most previous, have that info in /etc/sysconfig/clock. Mine reads UTC=true ARC=false > Also, is UTC the defacto right way to do this, or is there a better, > more standard way. I've never seen a good page on making this choice. I prefer UTC=true because the hardware clock never has to be shifted for DST. But Windoze won't deal with that properly.

Rick, I got an eMachines M6805 with an AMD64 chip and ATI Radeon 9600 Mobility chip in it. The only way I could get native 1280x800 was by installing 4.4.0 from XFree86.org, as 4.3 does not support the 9600 Mobility Do you have any experience with that version? While I have the native resolution (and a simultaneous CRT with independent resolution and refresh rate), I have issues with it (e.g., Gnome will only put the panel on the top of the laptop LCD; I can force it on the bottom by turning off Xinerama, but that corrupts %gconf.xml, and turning Xinerama back on yields no panel at all.) This is using the binary from XFree86.org, which is for glib 2.2, while I have glib 2.3.

The only way I could get native 1280x800 was by installing 4.4.0 from XFree86.org, as 4.3 does not support the 9600 Mobility Do you have any experience with that version? While I have the native resolution (and a simultaneous CRT with independent resolution and refresh rate), I have issues with it (e.g., Gnome will only put the panel on the top of the laptop LCD; I can force it on the bottom by turning off Xinerama, but that corrupts %gconf.xml, and turning Xinerama back on yields no panel at all.) This is using the binary from XFree86.org, which is for glib 2.2, while I have glib 2.3.

While I'm an old (literally) command-line hack from DOS, Windows and OS/2, I'm still a relative newbie to Linux (about 4 years.) So I do fall back on the GUI, especially to update the myriad rc files scattered about. -- Guy Rouillier From nofri at luk.or.id Tue Mar 23 04:10:03 2004 From: nofri at luk.or.id (Nofriyadi Nurdam) Date: Tue, 23 Mar 2004 04:10:03 GMT Subject: RH9: i'm looking directory that containts apache, php, mysql In-Reply-To: <405A00A6.1050908@vitalstream.com> References: <49F73BEED865D3119F8700902773C9F903D0E6F0@exchange09.rl.ac.uk> <405A00A6.1050908@vitalstream.com> Message-ID: <20040323041003.21051.qmail@senayan.indosite.com> Hi alls I've installed RedHat 9 with the package : apache, php & mysql.

Check your /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and verify that you have "UseLogin yes" set. If you don't, then the login program is never invoked by sshd when a user logs in and consequently, their home environment isn't set up (the automounter won't mount their home directory). If you enable this, note that "X11Forwarding" will be disabled (login doesn't know how to handle the xauth cookies). Take a careful read of "man sshd_config" for further details. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - "Microsoft is a cross between The Borg and the Ferengi. - - Unfortunately they use Borg to do their marketing and Ferengi to - - do their programming." -- Simon Slavin - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From gnichols at tpg.com.au Wed Mar 24 03:15:01 2004 From: gnichols at tpg.com.au (Graeme Nichols) Date: 24 Mar 2004 14:15:01 +1100 Subject: RED HAT With Updates In-Reply-To: <20040209181653.GB27177@bobcat.cumbytel.com> References: <20040209181653.GB27177@bobcat.cumbytel.com> Message-ID: <1080098104.1442.41.camel@localhost.localdomain> On Tue, 2004-02-10 at 05:16, Bob McClure Jr wrote: > On Mon, Feb 09, 2004 at 11:36:30AM -0600, Anitha Nalluri wrote: > > > > Hai, > > > > I want to have a RED HAT Install CD with all the updates with it. > > I do not want to run the up2date after install.

Bob, Is this the 3 CDs with the whole, updated, installable, distribution on it or just the updates? If it is the full updated distribution it is a cheap way to get the CDs when one has only a dial-up Internet connection. -- Kind regards, Graeme Nichols ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A candidate is a person who gets money from the rich and votes from the poor to protect them from each other. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - IMPORTANT. - - The contents of this email and any attachments, which may be con- - - fidential, are sent for the personal attention of the addressee/s - - only.

Just download and install the Java runtime stuff (JRE, Java Runtime Environment). You can find both instructions and links to the Java download sites at http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/linux.html#Java Personally, I use the Sun download, but the others work fine. BTW, you don't need Java for VNC to work. If you VNC to a remote machine and run Mozilla on that remote system to view a site that requires Java, THEN you need to install JRE on the remote machine. VNC itself has no such requirement. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - "Do you suffer from long-term memory loss?"

Bob, Is this the 3 CDs with the whole, updated, installable, distribution on it or just the updates? If it is the full updated distribution it is a cheap way to get the CDs when one has only a dial-up Internet connection. -- Kind regards, Graeme Nichols ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A candidate is a person who gets money from the rich and votes from the poor to protect them from each other. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - IMPORTANT. - - The contents of this email and any attachments, which may be con- - - fidential, are sent for the personal attention of the addressee/s - - only.

Do "netstat -rn" and verify that you have a line that has "0.0.0.0" in the first column. The default route is normally contained in the /etc/sysconfig/network file as the "GATEWAY=" equate. Here's an example: NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=prophead.corp.publichost.com GATEWAY=192.168.0.1 If you don't have a default route, you can add one using this command: route add -default gw ip-addr-of-your-gateway For example, to set up the default route as if it were in the network file: route add -default gw 192.168.0.1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - UNIX is actually quite user friendly.

If you right-click on the icon in the upper left corner of the window (the "v"), you'll see "Move to workspace N". Select one and it'll go there. There's also "Put on all workspaces".

However, the feature I was looking for accomplishes the same thing via a drag-and-drop operation instead of a right click operation. It's not a big deal.

One of Red Hat's policies for years when it comes to updates has been to maintain binary compatibility when releasing updates. This is why you see them back-port patches instead of upgrading to a new version of a package even when one is available. This policy is of even more importance with regards to the RHEL line of products. However Red Hat has, for the most part, dropped this policy when it comes to Fedora. :-P If a new errata release did break compatibility Red Hat would be forced to release updates for every package that compiled/linked against the new release. Plus Red Hat also would have to spend the time validating all of those new packages. This is something they really try to avoid. It costs money and it takes longer to get updates released. How long it takes to get updates released can be very important when the update concerns security related issues.

I really don't know what to try next. I'd hate to give up and start trying other distro's, but I'm sort of stuck. A friend mentioned something about trying VGA or something. I'm not sure how to do that. Even if I never get x working under red hat linux, at least I've learned a little something about ssh, NFS, and firewalls along the way.... :) Jason _________________________________________________________________ Get tax tips, tools and access to IRS forms ? all in one place at MSN Money! http://moneycentral.msn.com/tax/home.asp From jimhayward at earthlink.net Fri Mar 26 06:36:00 2004 From: jimhayward at earthlink.net (Jim Hayward) Date: Thu, 25 Mar 2004 22:36:00 -0800 Subject: "x" won't start after red hat linux 9 installation (attn Jim Hayward) In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <1080282960.4799.75.camel@garfield.linux.localdomain> On Thu, 2004-03-25 at 19:11, Jay D wrote: > ------------------------ > XFree86 Version 4.3.0 (Red Hat Linux release: 4.3.0-2) First thing you need to do is update your system with the available XFree86 errata packages.

I am including the following trouble shooting info and the clarification for the subnet mask (after consulting the NA) is that it is actually 255.255.0.0 for our hostel. I regret the mistake of giving the wrong data. The college server is based on rhl 9. I can ping only my system with ip 172.31.65.21 (local) and not even the systems connected through my switch ( on the same floor) . Please take a look at the following. And by the way ping is not disabled as it working on other systems.

For starters reinstalling RH9 will only put you where you are now. Configuring RH9 is what you need to do. RH9 is not winodws. Without going into the weeds, look at the simple solutions first without making any assumptions. If you have a Linsys Broadband DSL or Ethernet Hub/Switch that you can access via a web browser typically by opening the browser to 192.168.0.1 and logging into the administrative tools area. [ check you appropriate owners manual ] Under the first tab called Home, if Linksys, click the left hand side button called LAN. In here you setup your systems to be exposed to the network through the router by port number. If your router has a internal IP address of 192.168.0.1 then that IP is your gateway, all the other systems would be 192.169.0.xxx with a netmask that is the same, doesn't matter what, as long as they are the same, I'd use 255.255.255.0 . So lets recap ... your router is 192.168.0.1 from inside your LAN and it is whatever your IP address is from outside the LAN. Your first RHL system should be IP 192.168.0.100 - netmask 255.255.255.0 - gateway 192.168.0.1 and don't worry about the broadcast. Use "netconfig" at the command line as root to set the IP of your RHL system. Then go into your router, 192.168.0.1 username / password and in the section where you define the systems exposed to the network, add your first system, 192.168.0.100 and if you wish to run this system as a web server you would then expose port 80 and either schedule a time it is exposed or make it exposed at all times. In a setup like this, the RHL system is not the system that holds the IP address, rather your router is the IP address that exposes just ports on your other systems. Even if you only have one system, the router is still the holder of the IP. [ check you appropriate manual for router configuration information, typically your router must be setup first ] If your not using a router or switch of any type, but rather just connecting your RHL system directly to your RJ connection at the wall, then configure it as the IP, netmask and the gateway of the switch/hub/router that controls the LAN. Typically those switches have "ping" disabled to protect other systems on the LAN from denial of service attacks like "ping floods". Instead of using "ping" to find other systems, use "traceroute" like this: [you at yoursystem]$ traceroute yahoo.com . There are many more details but this should help hopefully.

First, why are you using such an ancient version of Linux. 7.2 was end- of-lifed long ago and is no longer supported by Red Hat (fedora legacy does support it, but I don't know for how long). Second, it appears that either your initrd image is corrupted or the driver in it is corrupted as insmod is dying when trying to load it to bring up your root partition. We've installed 7.3, 8.0, 9 and FC1 on x330s, x342s and x345s with no problems. 7.3 and 8.0 are also end-of-lifed but supported by fedora legacy. 9 will be end-of-lifed April 30, 2004 (little over a month from now...geeze!). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from a - - rigged demo. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From rstevens at vitalstream.com Thu Mar 25 18:19:02 2004 From: rstevens at vitalstream.com (Rick Stevens) Date: Thu, 25 Mar 2004 10:19:02 -0800 Subject: Gnome - drag from desktop to desktop?

If so, there are several routes you can take. First, check to see if you have an /etc/nsswitch.conf file. 1. If /etc/nsswitch.conf does NOT exist or if it contains this line: passwd: compat then you should make sure the last line of the /etc/passwd file contains a single "+". That tells the system that, if the user isn't found in /etc/passwd, try the NIS system. 2. If /etc/nsswitch.conf contains a line: passwd: files nis (there may be stuff inside "[]" which you can ignore for this bit) then you should be fine as it stands. The system first checks /etc/passwd, then NIS if the user isn't found. I HIGHLY recommend you go and get the O'Reilly "sloth" book, "Managing NFS and NIS" by Hal Stern if you're going to be playing with NIS a lot. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Whoever said "Money can't buy friends" obviously never brought - - donuts to the office. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From awfar at glis.net Fri Mar 26 19:36:44 2004 From: awfar at glis.net (Me) Date: Fri, 26 Mar 2004 14:36:44 -0500 Subject: Remove Windows permanently; Can installer run from ntldr/boot.ini?

First, why are you using such an ancient version of Linux. 7.2 was end- of-lifed long ago and is no longer supported by Red Hat (fedora legacy does support it, but I don't know for how long). Second, it appears that either your initrd image is corrupted or the driver in it is corrupted as insmod is dying when trying to load it to bring up your root partition. We've installed 7.3, 8.0, 9 and FC1 on x330s, x342s and x345s with no problems. 7.3 and 8.0 are also end-of-lifed but supported by fedora legacy. 9 will be end-of-lifed April 30, 2004 (little over a month from now...geeze!). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from a - - rigged demo. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Redhat-install-list mailing list Redhat-install-list at redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-install-list To Unsubscribe Go To ABOVE URL or send a message to: redhat-install-list-request at redhat.com Subject: unsubscribe -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

You must have boot media that will boot the installer's Linux kernel and start anaconda. Once you've established that, you can set up a kickstart file (on floppy, FTP server, whatever) that will control the rest of the install (partitioning, etc.) See http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/custom-guide/ch-kickstart2.html for details on how to do that. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - C program run.

You might check IBM's site to see if they have a driver disk for 7.2 for the 345's controller. If so, you may be able to solve the problem by using IBM's driver and installing vi "install dd". > -----Original Message----- > From: redhat-install-list-bounces at redhat.com > [mailto:redhat-install-list-bounces at redhat.com]On Behalf Of Rick Stevens > Sent: Thursday, March 25, 2004 4:07 PM > To: Getting started with Red Hat Linux > Subject: Re: RH7.2 & X345 install > > > Stamper, Steve wrote: > > I'm trying to install RH7.2 on an IBM x345 > > > > The base install goes fine (special disk driver required) however after > > the initial reboot the system hangs with: > > > > ERROR: /bin/insmod exited abnormally! > > ... > > pivotroot: pivot_root(/sysroot,/sysroot/initrd) failed:2 > > Freeing unused kernel memory: 220k freed > > Kernel panic: No init found.

(assuming your hardware supports this). the only other way that i can think of is (as Rick says) a kickstart install, for which you will need a CD or floppy as a boot medium, although you can customise this to automatically install from the network.

ATI's web page says their driver works for 9700, but NOT the mobility 9700. Their web page says to ask the laptop manufacturer for a driver. Clearly this isn't happening, (questions included in above emails re: wireless chip set). Unless you actually know for sure that the ATI driver DOES work for the mobility 9700??

I have a dual Opteron Tyan S2881 motherboard, 4GB of ram and 4*200 GB SATA HD's connected to the integrated Silicon Image SIL3114 controller. The disks are recognized in the bios, the raid array has been configured in the bios: The bios is:" American Megatrends Inc. 080008 - 12/24/2003" I have registered myself in the rhn. The Hardware list for the server (Sandbox) shows on the last line: " unknown device 1095 3114 PCI CMD Technology Inc unknown " I presume this represents the sil3114 controller, the number matches in any case. Sandbox is a development server and Red Hat v3 has been bought under a development licence. Oracle software and database has been installed, the db is supposed to store it's files on the sata disks. Right now the db files are stored on the 120 GB ide disk but we plan to add much more data, we need to add storage as soon as possible. My question is: Is this controller supported by RedHAt Enterpsie AS on x86_64 Opteron platform ? If yes, What do I need to do to get Red Hat to identify the controller correctly. Do I need to add parameter at the grub boot prompt. Do I have to load a module to be able to recognize the SIL3114 controller. Rebuild a kernel. If No: I have downloaded from Silicon image a 3114_amd_linux driver bundle. This bundle does NOT contain a RED HAT Enterprise Edition driver. It does contain a driver for UnitedLinux 1.0 . - Can I use this UnitedLinux driver. ? - Tyan has a beta driver for the SIL 3114 for the ES platform. Can this driver be used for the AS platform as well ? - does it make any sense to flash the bios with a more recent version (if any) Furthermore, this is a general support issue, I have downloaded the iso images on March 12th, and apparently activated the two week support at that time. It expired on March 26th. I have started my RedHat AS Installation on March 27th. Can we please set the start date for this support at March 27th. I DO NEED all support I can get.

Well, you won't get X, I don't think. The mach driver probably won't load at all and X will fail with "unable to find screen" or some such message. You can either a) boot into single user mode, or b) wait for X to poop out. Once you're in in a command prompt, run redhat-config-xfree86 to reconfigure X for your new card. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - It is better to have loved and lost.

I don't know. Did you check the Red Hat hardware list to see if it was? It may be supported in 32-bit mode. I didn't even know AS3 was available for the Opteron--at least not in 64-bit native mode. > If yes, What do I need to do to get Red Hat to identify the controller > correctly.

WARNING: Red Hat probably won't support your system. AS/ES/WS are only supported if they have Red Hat kernels and modules. Adding a third-party driver may mean that they won't support you fully. > - Tyan has a beta driver for the SIL 3114 for the ES platform. Can this > driver be used for the AS platform as well ?

This list is not the support forum for AS. This is a volunteer list. While Red Hat supplies the servers to run the list, they rarely contribute to the list directly. Changing the start date of your support is something you must do through Red Hat directly. We have no control over that.

Message-ID: <1080582438.2998.42.camel@marksmusic.myvnc.com> Hi, I got a new laptop for the studio this weekend. It came with an 80GB drive set as one NTFS partition. My old standby SC7 installs just fine and does it's normal start-up stuff to get into Win XP, but it just hangs when you try and enter the partitioning part of the program. Normally I'd size the NTFS partition down and then go through a Linux install, but I guess not this time. I've always liked keeping SC7 on the system since it does allow me to resize all partition types after the OS's are installed, but if it isn't going to work then I'm left looking for a new solution, so why no Linux? I could blow everything away on the machine, install Linux, and then install Windows, but these machines come with funny 'restore' versions of Windows XP so I'm not sure it won't blow partitions away when I try to install it. I know of none, but does anyone think there is a reasonable Linux based solution to resizing NTFS partitions without having to reinstall Windows?

That's odd.

No. There is no linux utility that will resize an NTFS partition. NTFS is supported via a kernel module just like NFS or any other filesystem, but the "write" versions of the module can hose NTFS to a point that not even Winblows can recover it. SC7.01 resized my NTFS just fine. Partition Commander 8 should also do a bang-up job. You may need to simply reinstall SC7.01 to get it to work or boot off the floppies or CD rather than the hard disk to get it to work (NTFS can do some weird things). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - You possess a mind not merely twisted, but actually sprained. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From markknecht at comcast.net Mon Mar 29 19:28:11 2004 From: markknecht at comcast.net (Mark Knecht) Date: Mon, 29 Mar 2004 11:28:11 -0800 Subject: System Commander 7 not working - any pure Linux alternatives?

Thus, I could blow the whole machine away, do a Linux install first, keeping partition 1 for XP, then install XP and just live with the primary partition I suppose. No reason I can't make a FAT32 partition using Linux and share that between Linux and XP I suppose. It's nice that Linux is so flexible... > > SC7.01 resized my NTFS just fine.

No, you will not damage your card. > Well, you won't get X, I don't think. Actually it will. The Mach64 chipsets use the "ati" driver. The "ati" driver is just a wrapper that auto detects the ATI video card you are running and then loads the correct driver. In this case it just automatically loads the "radeon" driver for his new card. Most of the time the auto detection works correctly. But if for some reason it doesn't you can specify which driver to load in your XF86Config. i.e "radeon", "r128", etc...

At the very least it'll kill off grub or lilo. Your best bet is to install XP first and reserve space for the Linux shared partitions.. Then install Linux and let grub do your OS loading for you. grub will see XP and put it in the boot menu. >>SC7.01 resized my NTFS just fine. Partition Commander 8 should also do >>a bang-up job.

(Stating the obvious...) ;-) You know, you can always fire up SC or PC from CD or floppy, so just using grub and keeping the others locked in a drawer (you know, "In case of emergency, open drawer) would simplify things a tad. Unless, of course, you're the kind of chap that wears a belt AND suspenders...just in case. >>I've never called V-Com so I don't know how responsive they'll be. Good >>luck with them. > > > Thanks.

I started the resize, but SC7 complained about the disk being cross linked and asked me to fun chkdsk /f, so that's running from Windows now. 42% done in 30 or so minutes. Strange that it would be cross linked, but I suppose it's possible. Any, in another hour or so I may have a solution...

I had this exact same problem on SC7.05 on an old dual Pentium MMX 233. I called V-Com, and on the phone, they maneuvered me through some hidden menus, had me change a setting, and the problem went away. My cryptic notes say "on setup screen, use alt-F9 - special setup options". I guess I thought what to do from there must be self-evident, because I didn't scribble down anything more. I called V-Com recently. I had purchased Partition Magic because SC7 is getting a little dated and didn't feel confident using it on XP NTFS, but really didn't like PM. The V-Com guy said that SC8 will be out "within 3 months" - that was two months ago. SC is one of my standby's so I'll be upgrading when it comes out, to get ReiserFS resizability. I also have a laptop without a floppy (eMachines M6805 AMD64), but it has a built-in 6-format memory card reader. I bought a Compact Flash card and put the Linux boot files on it, but unfortunately the system will not boot from the memory cards. Keeping my fingers crossed for a BIOS upgrade.

Very interesting. This pulls up a special screen with the following settings: Trace active? No Extra information? No Skip boot change in memory? No Clear items? No Skip auto extended EBIOS id? No Display data? No Alternate disk error handling? No OSW options: Auto Unused Int 13 EBIOS use Auto Auto-AST for MSDOS or PCDOS Yes and then in green text: Partition data validated I wouldn't have known any of that was there, and now I wouldn't say that any one of those is obvious to me, but maybe you can look against your settings if you still have that machine. > > I called V-Com recently.

The V-Com guy said that SC8 will be out "within 3 months" - that was two months ago. SC is one of my standby's so I'll be upgrading when it comes out, to get ReiserFS resizability. That will be a great reason to buy it. The one feature I wish they'd add is letting us install it when the first OS is Linux. It always seems you must have at least one M$ OS on the system first. > > I also have a laptop without a floppy (eMachines M6805 AMD64), but it has a built-in 6-format memory card reader. I bought a Compact Flash card and put the Linux boot files on it, but unfortunately the system will not boot from the memory cards. Keeping my fingers crossed for a BIOS upgrade. Resisting buying an external floppy - you can always make bootable CDs. Maybe that would work. Somehow store the data that the program makes for the floppy and then write that to a CD.

To bad. :-( But always making sure your system is up2date before trying to diagnose a problem can avoid a lot of gray hairs. ;-) You are trying to startx locally and not remotely correct?

No. There is no linux utility that will resize an NTFS partition. NTFS is supported via a kernel module just like NFS or any other filesystem, but the "write" versions of the module can hose NTFS to a point that not even Winblows can recover it. SC7.01 resized my NTFS just fine. Partition Commander 8 should also do a bang-up job. You may need to simply reinstall SC7.01 to get it to work or boot off the floppies or CD rather than the hard disk to get it to work (NTFS can do some weird things). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - You possess a mind not merely twisted, but actually sprained. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From ajai at bway.net Tue Mar 30 15:24:38 2004 From: ajai at bway.net (Ajai Khattri) Date: Tue, 30 Mar 2004 10:24:38 -0500 (EST) Subject: mysql and php In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: On Tue, 30 Mar 2004, Shatam Bhattacharya wrote: > specifically I would like ask u'll how to make html process php > scripts ?

Reinstall, but at the partitioning screen, do NOT let the system use "ext3" filesystems. Click on the dropdown box and select "ext2" filesystems instead. You should then be able to complete your install. Once that's done, you can convert to ext3 filesystems. See http://www.rhil.net/docs/ext2-to-ext3.html for instructions on how to do that. It's not hard to do. There is a glitch between the installer kernel and the ext3 filesystem on some hardware platforms. This started back in the RH7.2 days and has persisted through FC1 and it only exhibits itself with the installer kernel. The production kernel appears to be fine. There is hope that FC2 (with the 2.6 kernel) will finally kill this off. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - BASIC is the Computer Science version of `Scientific Creationism' - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From ca0230 at mnnit.ac.in Tue Mar 30 21:56:09 2004 From: ca0230 at mnnit.ac.in (Shatam Bhattacharya) Date: Wed, 31 Mar 2004 03:26:09 +0530 (IST) Subject: mysql and php In-Reply-To: Message-ID: Hi, >On Tue, 30 Mar 2004, Ajai Khattri wrote: > You have more reading to do: you will need to configure your web server > software (whatever that is - Apache?

Well, your system saw it initially and called it /dev/st0 but it seems to have gone away now. Whenever I see this kind of thing, I immediately have to suspect SCSI bus termination issues. Make sure the drive is at the end of the cable and that it either has its termination resistors installed and enabled OR that it's not at the end of the cable and the cable has a terminator on it. Remember, on SCSI buses, the last device at each end of the cable must be terminated.

Milen, Just checked out my RH9 system, which is set up similar to yours (same SCSI board but an older model HP external DAT drive). When I run the "mt -f /dev/st0 status" command, I ger the following response: SCSI 2 tape drive: File number =0, block number=0, partition=0. Tape block size 0 bytes. Density code 0x13 (DDS (61000 bpi)). Soft error count since last status=0 General status bits on (41010000): BOT ONLINE IM_REP_EN I also get info on the device if I run "cat /dev/scsi/scsi" This will give you an idea of what the correct response will be. I'll second Rick's idea that you just might have a termination problem. I'd also doublecheck the setup of the 2940 (hit the "CRTL-A" key combination when the Adaptec SCSI BIOS screen comes up during POST of the machine). Make sure your termination is set correctly for the external channel on the card (it should be ON if you have no other devices connected to the external channel except for the HP tape drive) and make sure you have the termination turned ON in the tape drive or (and this is how my old SureTape 5000 works) an external termination device attached to the second SCSI connector on the back of the drive.

I would like to double check the physical memory supported - we are getting 8 x 2GB PC3200 or PC2700 memory on this server. I have found something a bit obscure on the RH web page: http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/as/ in that it said: ** 64GB is the maximum memory size for X86 systems. Maximum memory sizes vary with other architectures. Can anyone confirm a. the maximum memory size for Opterons supported, and b. the maximum usable physical memory per process on user applications Thanks a lot.

"man nfs" will give you the available options. As far as where you specify them at mount time, that's in /etc/fstab. > If I don't manually set how I want it to mount, I don't know how to tell > how it did mount. "mount" alone should show you which non-default options were actually used. Those not displayed use the defaults shown in "man nfs": [root at smtp-01-001 bin]# mount -l -t nfs netapp2:/VIRTMAIL on /virtmail type nfs (rw,tcp,hard,noac,rsize=8192,wsize=8192, nfsvers=3,addr=10.24.1.4) The stuff not displayed use the defaults. The corresponding line in /etc/fstab (wrapped for easier reading) is: netapp2:/VIRTMAIL /virtmail nfs \ rw,tcp,hard,noac,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,nfsvers=3 Ok? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Better to understand a little than to misunderstand a lot. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From rstevens at vitalstream.com Wed Mar 31 19:52:32 2004 From: rstevens at vitalstream.com (Rick Stevens) Date: Wed, 31 Mar 2004 11:52:32 -0800 Subject: physical memory support under RHEL for Opteron In-Reply-To: <49F73BEED865D3119F8700902773C9F903D0E9DF@exchange09.rl.ac.uk> References: <49F73BEED865D3119F8700902773C9F903D0E9DF@exchange09.rl.ac.uk> Message-ID: <406B2180.8070107@vitalstream.com> Chiu, PCM (Peter) wrote: > > Hi, > > I am just about to order an dual Opteron 248 server to run under RHEL AS. > > I would like to double check the physical memory supported - we are getting > 8 x 2GB PC3200 or PC2700 memory on this server. > > I have found something a bit obscure on the RH web page: > ___http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/as/_ > > in that it said: > > **** 64GB is the maximum memory size for X86 systems.

As such, it is limited to the same 64GB limit as any 32-bit OS. The per-process limit is 2^32 bytes (4GB). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens at vitalstream.com - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Denial.

How can I tell which version of nfs is being used. The default according to the nfs man page is version 2. I didn't specifically say use nfsvers2 or 3, so it should have used 2. Then why are my nfs v3 nfs counters going up when I transfer data?

BUT, how can I tell. None of the commands you gave me are telling me anything, and I never specified in the fstab file which version of nfs to use. :confused:
