[CentOS-es] Problema al instalar JDK

Re: [CentOS] Re: Problem of sort utf8 file.
I already did that. The problem is not that the locale is not correct, but even if it's correct, the sort order is wrong. The result provided by pg is the same as the sort command. It shows that pg use OS's facility to sort string. Someone told me it's a bug of glibc. So I checked it and found that ubuntu use glibc 2.7 while centos5 use glibc 2.5. That maybe the problem. But updating glibc is too hard for me. Maybe I have to give up. On Tue, Sep 9, 2008 at 3:05 PM, Tom G.

[CentOS] LCD blanks out overnight
I inherited an ancient Dell Latitude C840 and recently installed CentOS 5.2 on it. It worked fine for the most part, but when I left it overnight and came back the next morning, the screen blacked out and wouldn't come back unless I did a hard reset. Even though I turned off all the power management settings and left it set like a desktop, the next morning after that it still blacked out.

[CentOS] CentOS 4 autofs 4.1.3
For those of you using CentOS 4, is anyone having trouble with autofs 4.1.3? I'm seeing (with 60second unmount timeout) what appears to be an apparent race condition where a script touches an automount directory at about (the same second according to logs) the same time the unmount is triggered, and the script then gets a read error. Sure, increasing the unmount timeout will reduce the occurrence rate, but if this really is a race, then it won't eliminate it. In looking at the CHANGELOG between autofs 4.1.3 and 5.0.1rc2, there have been tons of changes including some references to timing issues. However nothing is jumping out, and there are many changes. Is it conventional wisdom that the 4.1.3 autofs has 'issues' and folks routinely move up to autofs 5 on CentOS 4.x?

Re: [CentOS] Compromised
Yeah pull the network plug first. Then boot up with a knoppix CD to backup your data and/or image the disk, then reload. I'm sure you could do a full audit of the system but reloading is likely much quicker. A word to the wise on the account pcguest, if it was one you created, set the shell to something like /sbin/nologin. That can help to prevent unauthorized ssh access if you happen to leave a password blank. I'll leave the additional suggestions and heckles to others on the lists.

Perhaps there is an IRQ conflict, check the IRQs on the system, and try the NIC in a different PCI slot. Try disabling some on board features(parallel port, serial port etc if you don't need them) to free up IRQs. Pull out the other NICs and just try that 3rd NIC to try to verify that the NIC itself is OK or not. Many BIOSs print out the various PCI cards and their IRQs as part of the POST process, usually just before the boot loader kicks in, if yours does this make sure you see that 3rd NIC on there before linux boots up. nate ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Perhaps there is an IRQ conflict, check the IRQs on the system, and try the NIC in a different PCI slot. Try disabling some on board features(parallel port, serial port etc if you don't need them) to free up IRQs. IRQ's are fully sharable on PCI, all PCI devices can use a single hardware IRQ with no problems. Pull out the other NICs and just try that 3rd NIC to try to verify that the NIC itself is OK or not. I'd suggest trying the NIC in a different slot. Many BIOSs print out the various PCI cards and their IRQs as part of the POST process, usually just before the boot loader kicks in, if yours does this make sure you see that 3rd NIC on there before linux boots up. and in fact, that display often shows the bus.slot.func too, which is the same info shown on lspci ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
