Re: [CentOS-docs] Broadcom's BCM4311-, BCM4312-, BCM4321-, and BCM4322-based hardware install manual

Sorry, for not testing sooner. I took some time this morning and could update my driver using the latest kernel update! Here are my comments: 1. There is a typo in: mkdir -P /usr/local/src/hybrid-wl mkdir takes the -p option (lower case) 2. I could not perform: modprobe wl.ko but: insmod wl.ko works 3. I did not need to define all the aliases, neither remove all b43 stuff (I'm on a CentOS x86_64) Since I prefer not to diverge too much from the base system, I left it like that. 4. Interestingly I tried to define TYPEDEF_BOOL via the command line (which would avoid the modification of the files): make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/ M=$BUILD_DIR MODFLAGS=-DTYPEDEF_BOOL It builds without error, and the module can be inserted, but then it is not working (wlan networks are not found) More generally my question would be: if we would automate this procedure in a RPM (including the download from Broadcom website), would it count as redistribution?? Please find below for reference the script and patch I used for my testing.

The excerpt from the 'modprobe' manual states: /*insmod* is a trivial program to insert a module into the kernel: if the filename is a hyphen, the module is taken from standard input.

TIA Rob This (LSB 3.2 -- last in the 3 series) is not really bleeding edge [LSB 4 just got its first refresh in the 4 series, 4 having been out about a year], but the LSB intentionally lags to get a superset of distributions observed practice in Linux, rather than pushing development The printer driver folks are pushing (Apple 'bought' cups a couple years back and are pushing) new versions -- consider this: Date: Thu, 17 Dec 2009 15:10:42 From: Till Kamppeter till.kamppe...@elided To: lsb-disc...@lists.linux-foundation.org, Subject: lsb-di] Uplift to OPVP 1.0 in LSB 4.1? Hi, at OpenPrinting we are currently approving OpenPrinting Vector (OPVP) as official standard, and so the question came up on which version of OPVP are we in the printing requirements of the LSB and whether we can uplift to 1.0 if needed/possible. In Ghostscript OPVP 1.0 was introduced with the 8.63 release in the beginning of August 2008. Do all the enterprise distros under consideration of the LSB already ship Ghostscript 8.63? If so, I suggest that we uplift to OPVP 1.0. and frankly this will cause pain as ISV's and enterprise distributions are really not set up to 'chase' development [not economically justifiable, as it explodes the 'support matrix']. Both Linux Standards Base, and Open Printing are housed at the Linux Foundation presently, but it is not a good fit as they have conflicting mandates as to pushing A grand total of ZERO applications have certified to 3.2 http://ldn.linuxfoundation.org/lsb/certified/applications?filter0=**ALL**filter1=3721 and the same number to 4.0. That said there is exactly ONE under 3.1 I count 17 distributions certified under LSB 3.1, one under 3.2, and five to 4.0 ... NOT including RHEL for the last two items. While there has been much talk talk from the LF representatives about 'privately engaging' CentOS' upstream, and my sporadic efforts to drag the issues into the feeder Fedora space attention, frankly there is nothing much to show for it so far. One has to ask if the LSB is even relevant. I would note that with minimal changes, CentOS 5 can be made to pass (with minimal exemptions) the LSB 4 test suite in trials, and that CentOS 4.2 is used in day to day testing at the LSB's test boxes, the disinterest in certifying to the LSB at CentOS' upstream is similarly not publicly obvious. Really and truly, until large entity, commercial purchasing agents of enterprise Linux distributions start to insert a clause like: The provided software from the Provider shall at all times during the life of this contract conform to the then current Linux Standards Base then-current standard, and be noted as so certified at the the Linux Standards Base website. There shall be a 'recertification window' of six months following each LSB release and each 'point update' or 'refresh' of the same. The failure to maintain such certifications shall constitue a tender of a 'non-confoming' performance and goods under this contract, and if permitted to remain uncured for thirty days after notice from Purchaser to Provider, shall give rise to remedies to the Purchaser hereunder. The LSB 'carrot' of interoperability is unappealing to a Distribution, as all it does is make an offering 'less sticky' and permit easier transitions away and substitutions. As the Enterprise Linux market share leader in many segments, CentOS' upstream has an incentive to ignore 'chasing' the LSB certifications. The tried and true method to solve this is to back build from other's later released sources (hopefully already packaged -- I see Oracle's EL in there and those sources should build on CentOS); failing that, solving the Fedora/RawHide chain _may_ be possible, but as Fedora seeks to be very fast moving, they unavoidably avoid providing huge dependency chains. Perhaps I should start a sub-project to try to carve away the GUI 'Fedora fluff' in packaging from the TUI server 'meat and potatos' with some sub-packaging breaks and alternatives. ;) -- Russ herrold herrold at owlriver dot com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Already did that (btw, Sun doesn't give you a tarball, they give you a self-extracting .bin). if you put /usr/java/jdk-whatever/bin first in the path, you'll be using the Sun java. if you take it out of the path, you will be using the default distribution openjdk.

lets assume that at profile time, the sun java is -not- in the path, and
the usual /usr/bni stuff is.
in pseudocode as I'm a little too fried/tired to work out the real code
and I haven't been coding sh/bash scripts in a few months so it all
blurs together...
put this as /usr/local/bin/jset or something
export PATH,BASEPATH
if not exists $BASEPATH then BASEPATH=$PATH
switch $1:
case openjdk:
PATH=$BASEPATH
break;
case sun:
PATH=/path/to/sun/jdk/bin:$BASEPATH
break;
case somethign else:
PATH=/path/to/something/else:$BASEPATH
break;
default:
echo Usage: $0 {sun|openjdk|somethingelse}
break
endswitch;
this is the old school brute force method, doesn't rely on any external
magic other than a sane initial PATH

[CentOS] kvm-shell
Hi, I don't know if that already exists somewhere ... I've written it for me and wanted to share it with you. It's minimal kvm shell for end users - it allows them to start/stop/reboot their own kvm guests. http://www.michael-kress.de/2009/12/kvm-shell/ kvm-shell should run on all platforms. Have fun.
