My /etc/X11/xorg.conf does not have ModulePath in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, probably because it was produced by: [root@turn29 X11]# head -2 xorg.conf # nvidia-settings: X configuration file generated by nvidia-settings # nvidia-settings: version 325.15 (buildmeister@swio-display-x64-rhel04-03) Wed Jul 31 19:04:13 PDT 2013 and [root@turn29 log]# grep -i modulepath /var/log/Xorg.0.log [71.756] (==) ModulePath set to "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules" which means that nvidia-settings may not play nicely with ElRepos package. I manually added ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules" to Section "Files" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and now my X performance problems (sometimes long delays when moving windows; artifacts at old window positions) seem to be gone. thanks, Kay ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] hung nfs mount
Did you also check /var/log/messages on the nfs server side ? I had some NFS troubles with lockd some times ago and it was a firewall problem on the client: Try: - log on the NFS server and check in /var/log/messages which client is responsible for the problem (it could be an other one than your client). - on this client stop iptables (service iptables stop) and check if the problem still exist. In my configs, client iptables fully trust my NFS server.

This is a lab setup with on server holding home directories and about 10 other hosts and VMs mounting it as /home. There is heavy network testing on some of the servers but the NFS connection runs over a different interface/subnet.I think the issue is triggered by a user running NX/freenx sessions on multiple hosts and something gnome is trying to lock in the common home directory, but regardless it is a kernel hang to the point that I had to pull the plug to get the machine to shut down. And now one user (perhaps the only one with Gnome sessions on multiple hosts) has things hanging again - even an ssh login by this users hangs with this in the logs: Oct 16 09:24:25 dev-l-01 kernel: INFO: task bash:20785 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

Re: [CentOS] Overheating on laptop as compared to RHEL
Hello, I just thought I would mention my efforts in this issue of overheating. I looked searched for the appropriate drivers, and the latest from AMD Catalyst 13.1 has some issues installing on Centos6.4 because of some X issues. Actually, the driver actually issues a warning about not finding some version of version.h in linux kernel. If i do a force install, X server crashes with some error message "Failed to load /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so: undefined symbol: noXFree86DRIExtension" After a bit of search, from what i understood, there is compatibility problem somewhere in X and this driver. The joy is that i may have to downgrade to 6.3; i am not sure it will work even then, then i install cpufreq tools, and set the governor to "conservative". then i also pass acpi_osi=Linux in grub.conf. All this does not seem to help much, as the steady temperature from lm_sensors is acpitz-virtual-0 Adapter: Virtual device temp1: +59.0°C (crit = +90.0°C) temp2: +59.0°C (crit = +90.0°C) coretemp-isa- Adapter: ISA adapter Core 0: +55.0°C (high = +90.0°C, crit = +90.0°C) Core 1: +55.0°C (high = +90.0°C, crit = +90.0°C) Sigh. I tried looking around for tools to measure gpu temperature, but apart from proprietary driver, which i am unable to install, there seems to be nothing. I also tried pwmcontrol, but apparently there is no pwm controller on the laptop. Any other suggestions, most welcome.

[CentOS] New Install for 6to4 tunnel
Folks It appears that Comcast is using 6to4 tunnelling on all new installs in Washington and Oregon. I am trying to install Centos 6 (latest), and nothing I do seems to work. My method is as follows: The Comcast modem is directly connected to the box. Insert the NetInstall disk and bootstrap. Select the URL method of install, and enable both IPV4 and IPV6. I know that if I enable IPV4 only, it fails. Network manager never manages to initialize the network. --- As a sanity test, I took a functioning Windows 7 laptop, plugged it into the Comcast Modem, and the connection came up and worked. I had both an IPV4 address (globally routable, likely dynamic) and an IPV6 address. I know therefore that the modem, and cable all work. --- Is Linux installable on such a network? It installs elegantly and effortlessly in an IPV4 environment. It appears that there will be a growing number of 6to4 tunnel environments as the world slowly moves to an IPV6-only protocol. Advice please? David ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
