[CentOS-docs] Link to Chinese translation in Wiki frontpage

2009-05-06 Thread Timothy Lee
Dear all,

Now that a reasonable amount of wiki articles (with the exception of 
HowTos) have been translated to Chinese, can I request that a link be 
placed in the FrontPage, like this:

This wiki in Spanish | Chinese.

Thanks!

Timothy Lee

Not sure how much work is involved with this, but if we could achieve a 
state where in the absence of a translated page, the wiki drops back to 
using the english page, retaining url's into translated urlspace[1] 
then anything over a few pages should be enough to list a language as 
having local content in the wiki.

I've heard there are plenty of people hanging around in the shadows 
wanting to help with different parts of the CentOS process... so who 
wants to step up and write the code to make this happen ?

Umm? We already have that :)

Try http://wiki.centos.org/zh/HowTos for example.

If I can get a Chinese representation of the text in the message, I can
put that in there, too - for example if you go to 

http://wiki.centos.org/de/HowTos 

you get the same message in German.

ok, my bad! I thought that wasent in place as yet, but... you loose 
language namespace. All the urls from that HowTo page are now only 
pointing to the English versions so you have effectively 'left' the /zh/

Yes, that is a problem. I still have no idea how to really get it
multilingual so that it chooses the correct namespace from the browser
settings - I didn't find any solutions last time I had it.

Hi Thiago and all,

I saw a little increase in email traffic in the pt-br mail list by I
think that this should be discussed also there, and I did not see any
message about it in the list. Think about community and not only one
person.
Some other points took my attention on your participation, sometime
ago I started receiving spam through an email that I only used for the
pt-br list, it thinks me believe that someone is getting users' email
and sending them ads email about a magazine (one with ads at
centos-br.org).
This site is also increasing being populated with more and more
partners ads (nothing against partners) but what is theirs involvement
($) with the centos-br.org website? I hope this is not getting more a
commercial than a community participation.

[CentOS-es] CentOS 5.3 tiene mejor desempeño d e 3D que Fedora 10/11 en la Acer Aspire One (!?)

2009-05-06 Thread Joel Barrios Dueñas
Comparto con ustedes un pequeño hallazgo incidental, mientras redactaba
un documento acerca del manejo de MTRR con Fedora 10 en la Acer Aspire
One A150.

El microprocesador de la Acer Aspire One A150 proporciona ocho registros
de tipo y rango de memoria (Memory Type and Range Register).
Lamentablemente el BIOS, aún actualizado, configura los ocho registros
utilizando todos los disponibles. Esto deja a X sin uno, y aunque de
cualquier forma funcionará, carecerá de un MTRR con una consecuente
lentitud de X y 3D. Las funciones están presentes en el núcleo 2.6.27,
pero nunca realizan la limpieza de los MTRR. La solución a este problema
es utilizar núcleo 2.6.28 o posterior y añadir enable_mtrr_cleanup a los
parámetros de arranque del núcleo.

Como mucha gente prefiere otros métodos a compilar el núcleo, hice un
guión para corregir manualmente los MTRR en Fedora 10, con lo cual hubo
una poca mejoría en el desempeño 3D. No se me había ocurrido aplicar el
mismo método a CentOS 5.3, sino hasta esta mañana.

En CentOS 5.3 actualizado y con compiz habilitado, glxgears reportaba un
promedio de 430 FPS. Luego de aplicar el guión y reiniciar X, glxgears
reportaba 525 FPS. En Fedora 10 actualizado y con compiz habilitado,
antes de el ajuste glxgears reportaba un promedio de 290 FPS, después
del ajuste glxgears reportó un promedio de 350 FPS. Si, con la Acer
Aspire One A150, todo indica que CentOS 5.3 tiene mejor desempeño para
3D que Fedora 10 (y 11).

Las diferencias: CentOS 5.3 utiliza xorg-x11-drv-i810-1.6.5 y
xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.1.1. Fedora utiliza xorg-x11-drv-i810-2.5.0 y
xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.5.3.

Lo anterior evidencia que hay un serio problema en las versiones
recientes del controlador de Intel, que por cierto en su más reciente
versión en Fedora 11 y Ubuntu 9.04 tuvo una regresión de desempeño
(promedio de 95 FPS con Fedora 11 Preview y valores similares en Ubuntu
9.04).

Hi All,

#which sshd
/usr/sbin/sshd

The sshd daemon it's on  (see nr.1)

So connection to   Y it's OK, but from Y to another computer don't. Even 
back to X don't work

Any advice?

Thank you!

Sounds like you don't have the openssh client package installed.

Hi George,

i guess it could be the iptables ( blocking outbound traffic)

try iptables -F(flush) and then try ssh to  other machine 

If the above doesnt work try looking at your selinux

We've got a 110 TB xfs system in production based on a logical volume
striped over 9 boxes of SATA disk, works like a charm with great
throughput as we stripe over 3 controllers :-)

Only whoopsie in 18+ months was when we recently added 3 more disk
boxes and I grew the filesystem. First attempt xfs_grow only added a
fraction of the available space. Second attempt gave a kernel panic.
Reboot and everything was fine with all space available.

Lesson learned: don't use xfs_grow unless you're in the general
vicinity of the server ;-)

To shorten the fsck discussion with XFS (quoting the man page):

fsck.xfs(8)

NAME
~   fsck.xfs - do nothing, successfully

SYNOPSIS
~   fsck.xfs [ filesys ... ]

DESCRIPTION
~   fsck.xfs  is  called by the generic Linux fsck(8) program at
startup to
~   check and repair an XFS filesystem.  XFS is a journaling
filesystem and
~   performs  recovery  at  mount(8)  time if necessary, so fsck.xfs
simply
~   exits with a zero exit status.

~   If you wish to check the consistency of an XFS filesystem, or
repair  a
~   damaged  or corrupt XFS filesystem, see xfs_check(8) and
xfs_repair(8).

FILES
~   /etc/fstab.

SEE ALSO
~   fsck(8), fstab(5), xfs(5), xfs_check(8), xfs_repair(8).

[CentOS] Strange problem with filesystem changes reverting on reboot

2009-05-06 Thread Bart Schaefer
Our sysadmin was doing midnight work on moving some hardware to new
power outlets.  We'd recently done a CentOS 5.3 install on one of
those machines and then yum install with the centosplus kernel and
some rpmforge packages.  It had been up and running fine for at least
two weeks in that configuration.  He sent this message:

On reboot the root file system seems to have reverted to the previous
startup -- no CentOS plus, no Dag repository info in /etc/yum.repos.d,
no xfs, and therefore no /var/lib/mysql.  This is at least the second
time we've experienced this phenomenon ... suffice to say I am really
really suspicious about ext3 now.

The previous time this occurred was quite some time ago, probably soon
after the CentOS 5.1 release -- we'd written it off as pilot error of
some kind.  The root is not an LVM, but it is on a software RAID -- my
suspicion leans more toward a RAID issue than ext3.

Does any of this sound familiar to anyone?

That mostly is there because not all mirrors carry the DVDs. There are
more doing that now, when that page was written, there were much less
mirrors doing that, especially as Apache  2.2.x could not deliver files
larger than 2 GB.

Yep, it does.

I run some cluster and its gLite middleware on Scientific Linux 3.x
(flavour of RHEL 3). Its / has been put to software RAID1, the same
thing you described has happened several times. After reboot (not
necessarily the first one) just about everything in file system reverted
to the previous state. Just like after the fresh install, *poof*

Currently I'm using Scientific Linux 4.7 on LVM in the mix with software
RIAD1. So far so good.

I didn't have time to experiment with software RIAD1 after stuff
disappeared. It had to be installed fast and put into operation, so I
just abandoned software RAID, and have no clue what was the reason and
how the issue could be solved.

Will be glaв if someone could shed the lite on this.

Cheers,
Alexei Altuhov.

The only way I can even imagine that happening would be on a RAID1 where 
  the mirrors were not in sync when you made the changes so they only 
happened on one drive.  There are reasonably common circumstances to 
cause this, so you should always check with 'cat /proc/mdstat' to be 
sure both mirrors are active.  Then, the more unlikely part is that when 
you rebooted, the previously active mirror was not recognized and the 
previously idle mirror became active instead.  Again, 'cat /proc/mdstat' 
would have shown the problem - and if that was it, unless the drives had 
started to sync the wrong direction, the quick fix would have been to 
simply remove the drive with the old contents, forcing the other one to 
be used.   One possibility here would be that the partition type on the 
drive that didn't join the raid at reboot was not set to 'FD' for 
autodetect.   And the one that had the old contents might have had some 
error that caused it to be kicked out of the set earlier - the system 
does seem to be very sensitive about that where if there is only one 
drive it will do many more retries.

 Hmmm. xfs will not do that, the normal behaviour is not check the file
 system on every nth reboot. I normally have turned that off with ext3,
 too - if the system goes down unexpectedly, then I normally do one.
 
 BTW: ext3 handles Out of power corruptions better than xfs does.

While the fsck.xfs essentially is nothing more than a /bin/true, do note that 
if you EVER need to run xfs_check or xfs_repair, you need mre than a fair

Re: [CentOS] Strange problem with filesystem changes reverting on reboot

2009-05-06 Thread jacob
I've had similar issues with certain brands of hardware raid
controllers. It was like the mirror didn't sync and it picked a random
drive on boot to be the master. So changes happened they just didn't
happen to both drives and on reboot the other drive without the changes
might/would become master and everything would seem to have vanished.

I fixed it by disabling the hardware raid and going with a pure software
RAID 1.

 Let me look into that.

 From the os directory something like this should produce jigdo 
files/templates for all associated iso files.

for arch in i386 x86_64
do
 rsync -a --delete --delete-excluded \

After the files/templates are created they can be moved to a

[CentOS] Ghostscript in 5.3

2009-05-06 Thread MHR
Ever since I updated to 5.3, I have been unable to convert any ps
files to pdfs using the ps2pdf command.  I usually get errors like
this:

[...@mhrichter forms]$ ps2pdf doe81008
ERROR: /undefinedfilename in (doe81008)
Operand stack:

Execution stack:
   %interp_exit   .runexec2   --nostringval--   --nostringval--
--nostringval--   2   %stopped_push   --nostringval--
--nostringval--   --nostringval--   false   1   %stopped_push
Dictionary stack:
   --dict:1120/1686(ro)(G)--   --dict:0/20(G)--   --dict:102/200(L)--
Current allocation mode is local
Last OS error: 2
ESP Ghostscript 815.02: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

I can print the ps file just fine, but I wanted to save it in pdf
format instead of ps format, and that's not working.

I can use my VM WinXP machine and Adobe Photoshop Elements to do this,
but I prefer not having to fire up the VM for this.

Anyone else seeing problems like this?

Thanks.

Re: [CentOS] Adding an 'official' CentOS image to the Amazon EC2 (Electronic Compute Cloud)

 I think it would further the reputation and popularity of CentOS if it
 were represented in an official way.
 
 In case people aren't aware, when you create an AWS (Amazon Web
 Services) account there's a management console that shows a list of
 available images.  Of this list, some are published by Amazon, others
 are uploaded anonymously, or you can upload your own.

I haven't heard of it before. It looks interesting.
Is it basically a xen, or is it it's own environment?

I run CentOS inside a xen at linode - they have a 5.0 image and I 
believe a 4.x image. They only have i386, I don't know if a home brewed 
x86_64 image would work but it doesn't really matter for me since I'm 
only using my instance as a web server (fully updated to 5.3, and 
customized with EPEL and my own php build).

Anyway, I suspect xen (or similar) virtual machines are soon to be the 
standard way non-managed web serving accounts with shell access is done.

My previous host - the people were good, I requested some perl / tcl 
modules and they were installed, but then when they upgraded the OS my 
site broke and I had to request them again. Then they changed server 
operating systems (a good move - they were running a bleeding edge 
distro and they moved to debian stable) the uid/gid of apache changed 
and they didn't use the old uid/gid breaking apache write permission and 
I could not run chown myself so I had to file a ticket, etc. - with xen 
virtual machines, I never have to file a request ticket as I have root 
so it is better both for me and the hosting company and it is 
inexpensive enough that it undoubtedly will soon be the standard way 
anything more than basic web hosting and less than managed web hosting 
is done.

To get to my point, I think it would thus be beneficial for CentOS to 
produce an official virtual machine image for servers that providers can 
use and/or users can upload and use on providers that don't offer a 
CentOS image.

It should be a small image with basically just the server install, once 
running in xen users can yum install whatever they need to their hearts 
content.

I don't know who created the image linode uses, it was missing some 
stuff a server should have (IE screen and alpine, though alpine I 
believe is EPEL and not rhel/centos) but was missing very little and was 
a very complete basic server.

Linode now do CentOS 5.2, both i386 and x86_64, according to this:
