[CentOS-es] Saludos Listeros. Una pregunta sobre MRepo.
Estoy utilizando mrepo para actualizar mi repositorio local, pero no me crea los xml de los grupos de paquetes, como puedo crearlos. Según la documentación explica que es necesario descargar manualmente los ficheros comps.xml y ponerlos en un directorio que no tengo muy claro, y creo que incluso es necesario cambiarle el nombre, pero he probado de varias maneras y no doy con el resultado esperado. Alguien sabe como hacerlo? Gracias de antemano. -- Yoinier Hernández Nieves. Administrador de Redes.

[CentOS] How to install and update a src rpm?
Hello, is there please a way to install and later update a src rpm - instead of locating and downloading that package manually? I've run: yum install rpm-build mock yum-utils successfully. But when I try to run yumdownloader --source httpd, I get the error listed at the bottom of my mail. Do I maybe need to add a file to /etc/yum.repos.d/ ? I'd like to have httd source somewhere in a good defined place (will it be $HOME/src or /usr/src ?) because I'm trying to develop an Apache module. I'm using CentOS 5.5.

[CentOS] graphics driver
I did installation of CentOS5.5 in text mode and made changes at the following places in the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf : section device identifier : vesa driver:vesa section screen device:vesa Also in the file /etc/inittab I changed id:3:initdefault to id:5:initdefault so that I can boot linux in graphical mode. I had to make the changes in xorg.conf because the visibility of the graphics was so poor that it was impossible to work. The installation was done on Dell Inspiron N5010 with the chipset: Intel(R) HM57 Express chipset LPC interface controller 3B0B which is a part of Mobile intel 5 series The video controller is: Intel (R) HD Graphics Although graphics is there but the resolution and refresh rate are limited to 1024*768 and 0Hz, so I need to find the video driver. I had given i810 in xorg.conf but that didn't work. Which driver is recommended? ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

One aimed for people, like me, who are computer literate, but have never trained as a sysadmin, and who don't know much about RAID... thanks again! Fred If that doesn't work, I would try assemble with a --force option, which might be a little more dangerous than the hot add, but probably not much. I can say that when I have a drive fall out of an array I am always able to add it back with the first command (-a). As I mentioned, I do have bitmaps on all my arrays, but you can't change that until you rebuild the raidset. I believe these comands will take care of everything. You shouldn't have to do any diddling of the superblocks at a low level, and if the problem is that bad, you might be best to backup and recreate the whole array or engage the services of someone who knows how to muck with the data structures on the disk. I've never had to use anything other than mdadm to manage my raid arrays and I've never lost data with linux software raid in the 10 or more years that I've been using it. I've found it to be quite robust. Backing up is just a precaution that is a good idea for anyone to take if they care about their data. If these problems reoccur on a regular basis, you could have a bad drive, a power supply problem or a cabling problem. Assuming your drives are attached to SATA, SCSI or SAS controller, you can use smartctl to check the drives and see if they are getting errors or other faults. smartctl will not work with USB or firefire attached drives.
