[CentOS] Upgrade to CentOS 6.5 -> issue with Broadcom Wifi
Hello there!
I was running CentOS 6.4 system on my Dell Latitude E6530 flawlessly,
until I upgraded to CentOS 6.5.
Now the wifi doesn't show up (it's a Broadcom Wifi BT4313, 14e4:4727), I
tried to follow the steps from
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless/Broadcom
but when attempting to compile the Broadcom driver module, the make
command fails in a way that is not described on this web page. Anyway,
the page deals w/ CentOS5 without being specific.
I tried w/ both hybrid-portsrc_x86_64-v5_100_82_112.tar.gz (the one
which *I think* was formerly installed) and the latest available:
hybrid-v35_64-nodebug-pcoem-6_30_223_141.tar.gz; same compilation
errors (see below).
I simply could not remember how I had the Broadcom Wifi chip working
since CentOS 6.x, but I clearly remember that I had to install
the driver (I presume from the sources since I've found them in my
setup archives, but not sure). I have the following RPM's installed:
b43-openfwwf-5.2-4.el6.noarch
b43-fwcutter-012-2.2.el6.x86_64
I wonder if the kernel update breaks it.. Does any one have experience
with this driver and CentOS 6.5?
Here is make's output:
# make
make[1]: warning: jobserver unavailable: using -j1. Add `+' to parent make
rule.

[CentOS] CentOS6 xinetd failure
One thing I have noticed on CentOS6 is that rsync via xinetd never works after a reboot. It always takes an additional, post-reboot service xinetd restart to get it going. That has been the same for all revisions up to and including 6.5, and I've seen it on more than just machine. While I don't see such a message on other problem machines, the latest reboot gave me a clue: Dec 9 23:28:36 host xinetd[21131]: bind failed (Address already in use (errno = 98)). service = rsync Dec 9 23:28:36 host xinetd[21131]: Service rsync failed to start and is deactivated. Is there any way to debug this? I suspect it needs to be debugged during reboot since the service starts up fine later. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

More data: it seems that I had formerly followed steps from http://elrepo.org/tiki/wl-kmod, as I could find kmod-wl-5_100_82_112-9.el6.el6.local.x86_64.rpm installed locally, and RPM assembly stuff in ~/rpmbuild/. No better idea why it doesn't work since CentOS 6.5, unfortunately!

In that case you should rebuild the RPM from the latest sources from Broadcom and src.rpm from ELrepo and you'll find the chip working again. Regards, -- *Milos Blazevic* Signature Cert.

Right.. And I also rebuilt the RPM from the latest sources available (v6_30_223_141) instead of v5_100_82_112 which was not building anyway.

service rsync
{
disable = no
flags = IPv6
socket_type = stream
wait= no
user= root
server = /usr/bin/rsync
server_args = --daemon
log_on_failure += USERID
}
All machines are, correctly, showing that xinetd is listening on 873. But
this must not be the case for at least a period of time during system
startup.

[CentOS] about C program of CPP macro problems
Hello, all:
I have a program problem, ( may it not have close releationship with
Debian), it described like this:
I want to using #define / #undef, and want to put them in a single macro,
some thing like:
#define DECALRE_TYPE(type) \
{ #undef __curr_type; #define _curr_type type; }
as we know, this can not passed with CPP, but I need this logical here.
Generally, the problem comes from
#define ser_field(type, var) \
ser_new_field(tra, #type, #var, offsetof(struct_type, var))
I do not want another additional parameter in this macro like
#define ser_field(type,var,struct_type), and I want a sentence declare
"current struct type"
and all later work of ser_field will defaultly use this type.
I am not sure whether I can express it clearly, any ideas will be greately
appreciated!
Thanks and B.R.

Thanks for any hint and suggestion. /proc/*/smaps is a starting point. It's fairly easy to write a little script that adds the values in the Swap: lines for each process and calculates swap usage per process.

That package is old and unsupported. Your wireless chipset is supported by the distro and you should use the kernel driver. As Tom C said, dmesg output above is telling you the problem.

Excellent, thanks! Now I know how to work around it. I've seen this happening before, on CentOS5, when cups would sometimes not start. Upstream knows this problem very well or they wouldn't have introduced portreserve(1). Pretty hilarious they can't fix the actual problem. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I think that you are out of luck.
The preprocessor will not macro-expand one line into more than one line.
Also, #s generated from macro-expansion do not count as preprocessor flags.
To get two lines from one, you need #include.
#include "dcltype"
Have one such file per type.
