What is dkms and kmdl? dkms and kmdl are two different methods of providing kernel modules on your system. dkms does this dynamically on the end user's system, e.g. it ships code and your compiler builds it for any kernel you boot. kmdls are prebuilt kernel modules that are shipped in binary form. Ideally both yield the same results on your system. Both have pros and cons, and we'll hopefully get the pros together soon. > Should i use one or the other in this case? Yes, not both, they target the same kernel module, so they will both conflict in one way or another. Just try out one method and if that works stick to it. > Thanks. > Dave. > > - Original Message - > From: "Fabian Arrotin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: > Sent: Friday, August 17, 2007 7:50 AM > Subject: Re: [CentOS] using fuse on centos 5 with xp > > > >On Fri, 17 Aug 2007 07:37:13 -0400 > >"Dave" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > >> > >>Error: Missing Dependency: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-8.el5 is needed by > >>package fuse-kmdl-2.6.18-8.el5 > >>#uname -a > >>Linux wserv.example.net 2.6.18-8.1.8.el5.centos.plus #1 SMP Mon Jul > >>16 08:49:50 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux > >> > >It seems you're mixing third-party repositories ... normally RPMForge > >will provide dkms while atrpms will provide kmdl ... which repositories > >are you using ? > > > > ___ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS@centos.org > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net pgpUChhacfH8L.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

You can fix by explicitly asking yum to install a amtching kmdl the first time and then use the yum-plugin-kmdl to automate this for further kernel updates: yum install fuse-kmdl-`uname -r` yum-plugin-kmdl > #uname -a > Linux wserv.example.net 2.6.18-8.1.8.el5.centos.plus #1 SMP Mon Jul 16 > 08:49:50 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Also note that as others have written you accidentially got the ATrpms' version of fuse, you wanted to get Dag's version. I think both will work the same for you and Dag and I will be putting our heads together to melt our methods into one getting the best of both worlds. :) But for now you need to decide for one setup and stick to it. If you want to use the dkms solution use an exclude directive in ATrpms' repo definition to not see any "fuse*" packages. That will ensure that all fuse stuff comes from Dag. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net pgpq0aTija0Po.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
