Re: How to disable NMI watchdog?

2013-01-06 Thread Kernel Guardian
As Reindl wrote for virtualzation is better to use some bare-metal system.
Beside VMWare there are other virtualization solutions: KVM with
VirtualManager or Ovirt, Xen/Citrix, Openstack, VirtualBox, Choosing the
right solution depends on your needs. My opinion and experience says that
the use only one server in a production environment can be very risky
business. A few moths ago I was put in production environment one Ovirt 3.1
instalation over F17. (2 nodes for Virtualzation with 10+ virtual machines,
mixed Linux and Windows, with live migration )
For now, I am very pleased with Ovirt as a virtualization solution. Ovirt
can be installed on Centos 6.x also, with some hardware HCL problems,
depending on hardware you are using.
Also i was build up HA ISCSI storage over Centos/F17 over 1Gbps dedicated
network. So far I am satisfied with the performance of the system. ( I hope
that management will soon provide some money for 10Gbps network.:) )

   Do you have it overclocked?

 No

  Are you using the
  default video driver that comes with F17 or did you install the
 proprietary
  video driver issued by the video chip manufacturer?

 I am using the nvidia proprietary driver (I used kmod-nvidia and
 switched to akmod-nvidia recently because the 3.6.10 driver did not
 come but this did not change anything).
 I have read a thread that reports the same issue on gdm bug tracker
 and someone tried both nvidia and nouveau with no difference but I
 have not done it myself.

  Do you have another machine networked to this machine?  If you do you can
  open a terminal session on this machine using ssh.  You might find some
  clues in dmesg

 I will try that. I have just tested that I can connect by ssh and it works
 fine.
 Halas, I could not reproduce the freeze but I got only a small freeze
 (30 sec.) and dmesg during that freeze gave:

 I see also that after trying to open lots of sessions and close them,
 my 16 Gb memory is full and I had difficulties openning a new terminal
 because it said bash fork retry no child processes. I do not know if
 it is linked but I read somewhere that when X freezes, it may be due
 to memory leaks...

 I will come back later with more info if a new crash happen.

It helped a lot. I have exactly the same behavior.
After Nvidia binary become XRandR compatible, I encountered the same
problem (feature!!??). Before that RandR reports one monitor
with  3360x1050 monitor. (i have 2 22 1680x1050 monitor in TwinView)
Also, If application window size is about 75%-80% of monitor resolution
size it start maximized.  I start to wright simple Gnome app to find out
exact window size.

 Talks about the default state for GNOME 3 applications. So, the that
 'Documents' starts maximized. But it should remember the size you closed
 it.

 A random thing you run under GNOME 3 is not meant with GNOME 3
 application; just those things like Documents and so on.

 Sorry about my ignorance. GNOME application is only one with prefix
gnome-  in the name?
When I use XFCE previously listed applications work as expected. Maybe
they heaven't support for GNOME. I don't look in their source code yet.

 Suggest to read the release notes.

 The one bit about maximized has:
 | When maximized, certain applications will now hide their title bar.
 | This ensures more space is available for the application.

 Aside from that certain applications will start by default as maximized.
 By default = they remember their size.

 Where they(GNOME or GTK or someone else) are save those values? Or
application save those values?

GNOME 3 Apps maximized on startup?

2012-08-22 Thread Kernel Guardian
After one of the latest updates I discover some new behavior for some
applications (firefox, thunderbird, libreoffice (all of them),
google-chrome.  No matter how I start listed applications (from terminal,
menu ...) they always maximized. As I found in Gnome 3.4 release notes,
this is default options for all applications. But I found also that if I
logout user from desktop environment (gnome-shell and cinnamon) with active
applications in it, they are always restore previous window size after
login. I wonder where gnome 3 saves application window's position and size?
I have this situation on my 3 computers. Two of them have 2 monitors setup
with nvidia twinview. My other question is: does anyone else can confirm
similar behavior?.
And yes, F17 with latest update.

After last google chrome update I have problem to display any flash
contents in full screen mode. After investigation in chrome://plugins I
find 2 plugins under flash. One is from google installation directory
PaperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so and second one is in
flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so.
Verisions are:
libpepflashplayer.so - 11.3.31.109
libflashplayer.so - 11.2 r202

For now only solution I found is to disable PepperFlash from chrome and
leave flash-plugin enabled.

Re: Power-off stupidity remains in Fedora 17

2012-06-15 Thread Kernel Guardian
Thank you for bugzilla link.
Maybe it would be good for Fedora (and other Linux distributions) to help
Mint developers in advancement Cinnamon as gnome-shell replacement in GNOME
3 environment.
Since it is impossible to influence the development of gnome-shell it would
be nice to have some replacement. Unfortunately that is waste of time and
resources. I assume that main goal for Linux generally is to have bigger
and bigger user base. Decent GNOME DE could be key point
for achieving  this goal. Many users haven't proper technical skills to
hack DE.
Waiting for GNOME developers to polish all GNOME environment and make it
usable for non-technical users is just waste of time. Linux distributions
have no time for that luxury.
At least that is my humble opinion.
Over the last several generations of students I made a big effort to spread
FOSS and Linux movement. Unfortunately after GNOME 3, many of them have a
problems, especially hardware issues, to run latest Fedora versions. Almost
half of them give up from Linux because hardware incompatibility or lack
of technical skills to make GUI usable and user friendly.

 Not all DEs have the same hardware requirements that Gnome 3 has.  If some
 of your students are having problems with Gnome because they can't afford
 to upgrade their hardware[1] suggest that they do some research, find an
 alternative DE that their current configuration can handle and migrate to
 it.  If any of them seem reluctant to change, the words extra credit
 should be all that's needed.  Think of it as a form of Pons Asinorim.
  Being a bit of a BOFH, my attitude is that those who can't afford to
 upgrade and won't put in the work to find a Linux desktop that works for
 them deserve what they get.

 I'm aware of hardware requirements of Gnome 3, but  Always in the life
from time to time exists one BUT ... In HCI course it would be nice to
present ALL existing DE's in Linux. Discuss about good and bad side in GUI
design, usability  etc. In other courses some applications doesn't work
same on other DE's. Well it is easier for me and associates to
restructuring course material.
I'm afraid that GNOME DE (gnome-shell) would be kicked out until  hmmm
 so-called  bugs, features  (politically more correct than
stupidity) settle down.
There is always bright side of the life ... maybe some students become
brave enough to contribute in some other DE.

[1]Just for the record, my mobo is maxed out at 1GB RAM, although the CPU
 could handle twice that.  I don't even want to think about how slow Gnome 3
 would be, which is just one of the reasons I'm using Xfce.  And, I'm not in
 the position to upgrade because of limited income (Social Security) and
 several debts to be paid off first.

Re: Power-off stupidity remains in Fedora 17

2012-06-14 Thread Kernel Guardian
I deeply reconsider should I involve myself in this thread. Finally “Alea
iacta est“. This will be completely OT but I could not resist.
Actually, this post is about attitude and professionalism in Fedora
community. Lately I saw in  to many threads negative attitude about
suggestions, complains, bugs ... etc posted from users in this list. I got
sick of it.
FOSS community become very hostile place, especially by developers. I doubt
that Richard Stallman or any other leader from FSF, GNU would like to FOSS
become such a place.
I'm aware of the fact that GNOME developers do not read this list. I'm
aware of the fact that many Fedora/Red Hat  maintainers do not read this
list. But we don't have any other place to express our observations about
Fedora distribution and included software.
Drop that spilled the cup is comments from Ankur aka FranciscoD about issue
in this thread.

First things first: I'm in the Unix/Linux world more than this young Indian
Tiger's age. Last 12 years main and almost only OS on my desktops, laptops,
servers (at home and work) is Fedora/CentOS/RHEL. They satisfy my need in
day-to-day work, research, entertainment ... etc. Using comps more than 8
hrs per day. So, I feel that I have rights to write comments about comments.

 I'll request you to please quit ranting. It isn't constructive in the

 least. This isn't the place for it: your personal blog is. It's F/LOSS.

 If you don't like it, do something to change it: fork gnome3 if you

 want? Here, all you need to do is install an extension. It really isn't

 too much to ask :)

  First of all you are claim that you are Fedora Ambassador. You CAN'T
wrote something like this. In good faith, I'll request you to please quit
from Fedora Ambassadors. It is destructive for Fedora to have
representative who writes these comments. This isn't place for it: your
personal blog is. Anyhow, you declare your blog as geek's blog. From my
point of view Fedora is not geeky distribution, leastwise I don't
experience it as that. Hope it wouldn't never become. About FOSS, I
strongly recommend to you to read and learn more about FOSS, free software
movement and similar subjects. If you don't like comments/complains from
Fedora users do something to change it: fork it/spin it if you want. It
really isn't to much to ask :)

 How difficult is pressing the alt button?


 I don't understand what the cribbing is all about really:


 1. press alt button

 2. install the extension

 3. if you use a terminal: poweroff works there

 4. use a different DE

 5. use windows/mac


 Any of the above solutions will work. To avoid pressing one alt button I

 see folks typing emails discussing how difficult it is to press the alt

 button? Doesn't that require pressing more keys? So, since it isn't

 efficiency you're after, what is it?


It is all about use cases. I don't understand what is cribbing is all about
really: (my use case scenario)
1. power off by default
2. press alt button if you like to suspend/hibernate/logout
2.1 allow user to customize behaviour of button
3. install extension: users must write extensions because main
functionality is not accomplished.
4. if you use terminal: type exit or CTRL-D; go to 1.
5. use a different DE: yes we have freedom of choice. My is to use GNOME
(gnome-shell) with usable interface. I will ask you to read more about HCI.
6. use windows/mac (meaning OSX I assume) : you are Fedora Ambassador, this
is totally inappropriate. Or maybe you got donation/payment from them?

Аny of the above solutions will work. I saw many frustrated programmers
typing emails discussing how is difficult to adapt software to user use
cases or wishes.

Neither am I kidding, nor am I a masochist. I just don't like random

 folks venting on mailing lists. If you haven't learnt yet, venting does

 nothing. It doesn't bring any changes. All it does is waste infra.


 Like N number of people have already written: Install the extension, no

 more alt required. From F18, you'll have your poweroff back. In the

 meantime, if alt is too much, and installing an extension one time is

 too much, use something else. Move to another DE.


Well, we can't discuss about this issue here? If you haven't learnt yet,
there is something as Freedom of speech. Comments as this lead us in any of
*isms (fascism, communism). Hmmm, I will reformulate myself: all are equal,
but some are more equal than others. Current status of GNOME DE satisfy
your needs. I just don't like random folks persuading others on mailing
list that GNOME is good or must install extension for basic functionality.
Must install an extension every time with new version of GNOME, if author
rewrite it because compatibility problems. If I rethink, it would be better
to learn C, C++, Python, JavaScript, GNOME 3 architecture (there is

what version of Fedora you use? (nfs server / nfs client)
can you attach /etc/exports and /etc/syconfig/nfs files?
can you attach /etc/sysconfig/iptables?
All of these files are from nfs server side.

 I'll admit that I don't know much about this, but it might help to know how
 that partition's formatted.  It might make a difference in how it gets
 mounted.

nfs stands from network file system. Although you can export almost
any file system over nfs.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_File_System_%28protocol%29
it is impossible to format any disk partition as any type of nfs.

 My thought was that you probably couldn't mount it as ntfs4 if it were
 formatted as ntfs3.  Again, just trying to eliminate an unlikely
 possibility.

Re: Kernel 3.3.0-4 bluetooth

Roger,
I had similar problem with Asus u30jc and bluetooth. I must use custom

For some reason, unknown to me, pm-suspend can't power off all

Asus design). During entry in sleeping mode pm can't turning off this
device. Maybe, in your case, pm can't detach your mouse from

maybe you would find some useful infos from my script. I find
debugging pm sleep and hibernate mode to difficult because it is very

 Hello,

 Machine: Lenovo Thinkpad x220 plus MS Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000
 (both about 3 months old)
 uname -srov: Linux 3.3.0-4.fc16.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Mar 20 18:05:40 UTC
 2012 GNU/Linux
 Desktop: Gnome 3

 Problem: When I suspend (by closing the lid) the suspend LED starts
 blinking as usual but never stops.
               Power switch is the only option.  If I do not use the
 Bluetooth Mouse there is no problem and
               machine suspends normally.  Note: X200 Bluetooth radio
 is still on just the mouse is off.
               With kernel 3.2.9-2 (just choosing it from the initial
 grub menu) this problem does not occur.

 I removed the mouse from the Bluetooth configuration and re-paired it to
 no avail.
 Any suggestions about what I might check next would be appreciated.
 Actually, if nothing else, just how to make 3.2.9-2 the default kernel
 until this situation passes would be nice.

 thanks,
 Roger Wells

Re: Moodle on Fedora 16

2012-01-20 Thread Kernel Guardian
Regarding comments on Fedora:
even most of people use cutting edge thing I will only express BIG
disagreement. (with all politeness even usually use )
I'm using Fedora for my production systems for a long long time ago.
Without any problems. From F8 if i remember well.
cutting edge could be only rawhide. Last few releases from 14
especially there is a lack of ... seriousness about Quality
Assurance if I may say.
About longer life cycle ... it is easier to upgrade installation nor
install latest php on RHEL-based distributions. this is only my point
of view.
I can not remember when one of my production system lived longer than two years.
Nevertheless ...
Regarding moodle on Fedora: (I hope that Daniel will read this :) )
there is a several modifications that have to do to make it operate properly
- default moodle package make 2 dirs under /var/www/moodle: web and
data. data dir have httpd_sys_content_t context. This context prevent
writing under data dir. moodle use this dir intensively for writing.
- first: change context to httpd_sys_rrw_content_t on data dir and,
and for better security change owner and group to apache.
- second: change httpd_can_network_connect_db to on, depending on
cache model in moodle httpd_can_network_memcache to on, and
httpd_can_sendmail to on for sending emails directly from moodle.
After these changes moodle works as a charm on Fedora. My first
production moodle setup was on F12. Latest on F15.

netfs or nfs?
netfs is client rc script to mount fstabs network fs mounts (nfs, smb, )
nfs is rc script for nfs server.

I'm not sure if F13 have nfsv4.
try to set mountd_nfs_v3=yes in /etc/sysconfig/nfs file.

what is return rpcinfo -p (nfs_server) from client comp?
what is the status of selinux on server and client?

# service iptables stop

Re: Reading an OpenServer hard drive with Fedora

SCO OpenServer version?
If i remember well, i was read and successfully recovering data from
OpenServer 3 and 5.0.4 disks with SuSe 8 or 9 ( have on some CD's in
the basement).[my first Open Server 3 installation media was have 78
floppies.]
Reading disk content would depend on file system in use on those disks.
Any Linux with 2.4 kernel can read SCO disk, maybe on some must
recompile kernel to include support for different type of disk
partitioning schemes and file systems.
I forgot a lot of things, last time when administering SCO's is almost
12 years ago.

SCO Unixware is different story.

Anyhow, SCO use regular partitions, and slices are under them.

 Bill:

 I'm having a somewhat vague recollection that much much older versions
 of Linux (from circa '95 when I was using Slackware 2.1 with the very up
 to date 1.5.9 kernel) had some flavor of support for SCO partitions. I
 have some memory of having read some docs or notes online somewhere
 about it. I don't think I've ever tried mounting a HD partition from
 one of them on linux, though.

 If it would be any help, I probably still have the CD with that ancient
 Slackware, and also a (now) really ancient Red Hat 4.1 CD.  ISO images
 could be created in need.

anaconda: --rootPath obsolete. Any workaround?

2011-10-05 Thread Kernel Guardian
For a long time I use diskless installations of Fedora/RHEL/CentOS
with readonly root. Recently, with changes in anaconda, --rootPath is
no longer supported.
I have to many different types of installations and initial
configuration. Until now i was using kickstart files for every type of
installation.
Installation dozens of installations and copying on NFS server is
worst case scenario. During copying i do not find useful way to keep
SELinux contexts.
So far i was run anaconda from command line with --rootPath option,
and any installation was have proper contexts.
Disabling selinux on clients is almost unacceptable, but it is only solution.
I'm open for any constructive suggestion.
Anyhow i have more then 100 diskless clients in my environment. They
choose on PXE boot which type and version of installed OS like to run.
On net i couldn't find any solution.
Is there any way I could preserve contexts when copying files?
Or anaconda have undocumented option, which would be the best solution?

Re: Developers responsibillity to Fedora Users

2011-09-27 Thread Kernel Guardian
After nearly 25 years of life with Unices, almost 20 years with Linux,
nowadays I'm pretty confused about future of Linux.
Allow me to elaborate a bit.
I'm convinced that the Kernel will survive and be better in the long
term future. RedHat and IBM as biggest contributors within it and
Linus as maintainer (leader, mogul ... ) give me faith in the future
of Linux. GNU fits well on the top of kernel. That is a rock solid
base for every Linux distribution.
Last 7 years all of my desktops, laptops, servers are locked down on
RHEL and derivatives and Fedora. I saw many changes, bad and good
ones. But last one, with fairly unfinished, not even close to, so
called Beta release, Gnome 3 DE is the worst what is happened.
On the other hand, I like the new look, many promising features, ...etc.
So, what is bad?
The bad thing is attitude of Gnome (developers, promoters, project
leaders) toward end users. They decide to abandon Gnome 2 and put
distribution maintainers in awkward position. Maintainers must use
(buggy, unfinished, untested) Gnome 3 if they want to use Gnome DE in
their distribution. Breaking compatibility at API level with previous
version put application developers in unenviable position. This is
almost unacceptable! ( because of that I understand Ubuntu leaders )
From that point of view I wonder on whose payroll are these gentlemen?
This is not good way to promote OpenSource way of life, I'm presume.
I will agree with opinions that DE need some changes, fresh ideas.
Frankly, I don't see anything new that does not exists in other OS/DE
combination. It is good to have DE for mobile devices, tablets 
etc. But that could be a related project with main Gnome, isn't it? I
use laptop only when I'm out of office. Desktop with 2 monitors is my
main workplace. ( someone would say he is old-fashioned guy ). No
one can convince me that all Gnome developers use only laptops. I
would like to see their workplaces.
I was shocked when I read the response of one of the Gnome developers
in a discussion about maximise/minimise buttons. I paraphrase the
answer: we where not able to model use cases for them, because each
user uses them in different ways ? (I'd rather not comment this)

At the end, using of Free Software is liberty/freedom of choice. There
are many opportunities: KDE, XFCE, LXDE  They have been created as
response from people who thought differently. This is a waste of
energy, time, resources, even money. As an old elephant, I could
recall the story about end of XFree86 project.

This is not the way how we can attract more young people who will
use/make/change OpenSource software.
Regardless of all these current events about Gnome, I will continue to
teach my students about importance of OpenSource, FSF, and freedom of
choice.

P.S. I like to excuse myself about my English in front of linguistic purists :)

What you mean with behind Windows XP?

 sdc2 Does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.

 There is only two hard drives and a DVDrom in this computer,  I can't
 understand the sdc2 unless fedora see's this
 drive , slave hard drive as sdc2 instead of sdb2 , partition 2 is where
 the / partition is for Fedora.
 WindowsXP is on Master drive.

Master/Slave? Disk is PATA drive or SATA drive?

 Hard Drive is recognized by BIOS as a Slave sdb.

 I guess the Device map is different and causing problems, How do I fix
 this to get boot sector on /dev/sda

 Can the command  grub-install --recheck /dev/sda fix the problem.

It would be nice if you could send fdisk -l output and grub.conf.
grub counts disks and partition from 0.
(hd0,0) first disk first partion
(hd1,0) second disk first partition  etc

Linux kernel enumerate disks as:
sda - whole disk
sda1 -first disk first partition
sdb - whole disk
sdb1 - second disk first partition

Re: configuring bridge with wlan0 on libvirt (KVM) (RHEL6)

2011-08-26 Thread Kernel Guardian
Put into ifcfg-wlan0 :

# bridged interface for wlan0
BRIDGE=br1

ifcfg-br1 :
DEVICE=br1
TYPE=Bridge
ONBOOT=yes
...

the rest of config is standard.

after restart network service or whole system, you can use br1 as
interface in KVM guest
