Personally i dont like YUM, I prefer apt-get, the package you dont wanna
update is openldap, espesially the server, you could easyly configre 
apt, to

ignore those packages


you can define it in /etc/yum.conf; add an exclude line, such as:

exclude=*firefox*,*thunderbird*,*scribus*,*eclipse*,*zope*,*plone*,*blender*

yum will "start" little slower, but it works


There is allso a script included to make your own apt repository


for yum this is createrepo; simply copy packages to any 
directory and run


createrepo /this/dir/

then you have to add new repo in /etc/yum.repos.d/, but it 
should be very similar (except path of course) to others; if 
you don's use pgp to sign your packages, the line


pgpcheck=0

will help, because for default yum doesn't install packages 
which it can't verify

1) i dont see /usr/src/redhat/BUILD and the other 4 directories..
namely RPMS, SOURCES, SPECS, SRPMS
so basically how do i install /src.rpm files


install package rpm-build and they will appear

but create a new user account, and build packages as that 
user; it's much more safe

specs and i386 packages are in rpmforge; d4x is... 
"compilable", but amule have wxgtk dependency, so use binary

Re: [CentOS] Desktop panels disappeared

What command should I use to restore my desktop panels they disappeared
after I increased the screen resolution


it's depend on desktop you are using; in Gnome, this will be:

gnome-panel &

run this as "panelless" user, not root; there are at least 
three ways to acces terminal without panel; first is 
ctrl+alt+F1, second is desktop icon, third is 
nautilus-open-terminal package

Re: [CentOS] yum upgrade perl question

Użytkownik Rogelio Bastardo napisał:

I'm looking to install n2rrd, which requires Perl 5.8.x
(http://n2rrd.diglinks.com/cgi-bin/trac.cgi)

I see that lots of Perl stuff is installed. Do I just need to yum
upgrade perl-libwww-perl-5.78.5 to the latest?


if that n2rrd is pack of Perl scripts, that requires only Perl 
and some modules, compile n2rrd and other dependences to, say, 
/usr/local/prorgams/n2rrd and run it; I do it for many 
programs, from zope to glade3 and they work perfectly


why that? if you use CentOS version without Perl 5.8 in 
updates repo, then you shouldn't upgrade Perl as RPM; Perl is 
very strategic program in system, on which depends tons of 
software

[CentOS] [5.0] little bug confirmation request

2007-08-07 Thread Lukasz


can someone do this:

1. download this archive 
http://plone.googlecode.com/files/Plone-2.5.3-final.tar.gz


2. open it using midnight commander

3. copy its content to any directory

4. check 
ATReferenceBrowserWidget\skins\ATReferenceBrowserWidget 
subdirectory


5. there should be files referencebrowser_startupDirectory.py, 
referencebrowser_queryCatalog.py, 
referencebrowser_insertHistory.py, 
referencebrowser_filterBreadCrumbs.py


6. there are? on one CentoS 5.0 machine everything is fine; on 
other (with the same updates) those files have shorted names, 
(referencebrowser_queryCat, referencebrowser_filterBr, and 
so); I checked it twice


7. what and why is happening?

I have almost identical instalations, on ext3 partitions; I 
don't know what information should I attach, bacause I never 
seen something like that


thanks for any info

Lukasz

Thanks everyone. This is mc issue, tar extracts it correctly. 
After that, mc shows file names. It's still possible that 
something is wrong with encoding, but since tar works, this 
isn't very bad.


With some time, I'll try to find why mc is not working.

you can use any 2.6.x kernel version, but then you have to run 
it yourself


I suggest to use kernel source RPM package from Fedora 6 or 7 
and try to rebuild it; even if you will have to modify spec 
file, it's less work and more safe and you have huge number of 
patches; and you will have RPM packages, so you can build and 
test kernel on other machine with no risk

I am using CentOS 5 64bit, i can install successfully on the below hardware.

CTRL button, it shows where the pointer is.. What should i do to enable and
work with Mouse.


is it USB or PS2 mouse?

this looks like gnome issue, sunce mouse is visible while rhgb 
running, but mouse can be configured directly in file 
/etc/X11/xorg.conf; can you send us context of this file?


also, you can disable rhgb; check the file /boot/grub/menu.lst 
and (after backup to /root/important/ or other safe from users 
directory) and delete every "rhgb" you find

Re: [CentOS] Safe method to remove old kernels

2007-10-12 Thread Lukasz


Michael Kratz pisze:

Be very very careful... don't remove the kernel you're running.


after removing actually running kernel, the system will operate 
properly, because kernel and modules are in RAM; so unless you try to 
load a kernel module, or reboot, you are safe


I sometimes make mistakes and remove kernel before installing a new one, 
and it works as good as removing it after installing new

Re: [CentOS] umount'ing a /media/disk... as a user

2007-10-15 Thread Lukasz


Charles E Campbell Jr pisze:
Currently, whenever I attempt to umount /media/disk (or -1, etc), I 
either have to be user or have to have given the account sudo 
privileges.  Since these "disks" are usually just flash-memory sticks, 
I'd really rather have the permission to umount them be given to users.  
The /etc/mtab shows the /media filesystems, /etc/fstab does not.


You may add those devices to fstab, much like partitions:

/dev/sda1 /mnt/pendrive vfat noauto,users,rw,umask= 0 0
/dev/sda2 /mnt/pendrive2 vfat noauto,users,rw,umask= 0 0

the key is that "users" param, to allow normal users mount and umount 
filesystem; I very often use static mount points and edit fstab instead 
of using HAL for this, but HAL itself respects fstab configuration too


all parameters are listed in mount docs, but since those are removable 
media, security isn't very important

Last time I compiled a KDE app from source (knights I believe) I

a) in Red Hat Qt sources are in /usr/lib/qt-3.3 directory, but generally 
in distributions there is /usr/lib/qt path; all you need is symlink and 
forget of configure path options:


ln -s /usr/lib/qt-3.3 /usr/lib/qt
