[CentOS] SATA DVD Burner / AHCI / CentOS 4.7 (kernel: 2.6.9-78.0.22.EL)

OK, it seems that the kernel I have (stock CentOS 4.7: 2.6.9-78.0.22.EL i686) seems to gronk the nVideo SATA controller in AHCI mode. It is NOT able to deal with the SATA DVD Burner I have. It is a "Sony Optiarc DVD Burner with LightScribe Black SATA Model AD-7241S-0B LightScribe Support". Is th

[CentOS] named 'wedging' on CentOS 4.7

For some unfathomable reason, named 'wedges' -- becomes unresponsive and needs to be killed (with -9!) and restarted. I am using an intermittent (it is not a dedicated phone line -- I also use it for voice calls), dialup connection to the internet and I am using forwarding (from /etc/named.conf):

[CentOS] Cleaning up some problems

Over the past year or so, I've collected several errors that some I have found the solution for, others, like the one below are quite befuddling. I get this one every week when /etc/cron.weekly runs. What the heck is the "S" or what it is looking for? Also, I've checked with cpan, and accord
