Re: [CentOS] Intel SE7210TP1-E giving memory errors
Rob Kampen wrote: Hi List, I've been getting the following EDAC memory errors EDAC MC0: CE page 0xeb0dd, offset 0x0, grain 4096, syndrome 0x45, row 3, channel 0, label : i82875p CE and from this seeing that these errors have been corrected. Checking cat /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/csrow3/ch0_ce_count gives me a count of 4 thus I now know that csrow3 - ch0 is the problem My question is, how does this map to the on board labels DIMM 1A DIMM 1B DIMM 2A DIMM 2B Am I correct in assuming csrow 3 is DIMM 2B? Swapped the memory between DIMM 2A and DIMM 2B - still get fault in row 3, channel 0 - thus did not move with the RAM?? Next reboot I'll try swapping 1A and 1B Also I have just discovered that both the OS drives sda and sdb have huge number of errors shown on the SMART records - can this relate to the memory errors?? - I am just really surprised to have two drives show almost identical number of errors at the same time, yet no apparent data errors - Drives are ATA ST380013AS 74.53 GB Just for safety I swapped /dev/sda with a new slightly larger drive did the sfdisk foo and added it to the md raid drives. This brand new drive immediately shows high raw read error rate and hardware ECC recovered in the tens of millions - I think this is not a drive issue but related to the ECC mem errors??

[CentOS] How to preserve iptables when running the GUI tool ?
Hello I have set up NAT with iptables for an openvpn connection, so that the VPN server could give VPN clients access to the entire sub-net of the server. The probelm is if I start system-config-securitylevel to say disable the firewall, and then again to enable it, my iptable rules are gone ! I did run `service iptables save` before. Is there something I can do to prevent this ? Is there a gui interface to enable NAT over a VPN connection that cooperates with system-config-network ?

If EL6 is targeted at servers, why does upstream have not one but two desktop oriented SKU's? This 'EL is a server OS' meme is ludicrous, as EL6 is a fantastic desktop/workstation OS. My circa 2004 Dell Latitude D600 Dothan (Pentium-M) laptop? I wouldn't even bother to try. You know, I don't exactly agree with that. The D600 (and D610) are still relatively useful laptops that, with the right desktop environment, can perform quite well, especially with the 2.0GHz Pentium M and 2GB of RAM (which can be had). I would dare say that for most things a 2GHz Pentium M would perform nearly as well as a Core 2 Duo at the same clock with the same amount of RAM, and will outperform a P4 or Netburst Xeon at 3GHz. That is, in terms of single-threaded performance, that D600 with a 2GHz Pentium M will run comparably to a Dell Precision 650/670/690 with one single-core 3GHz Xeon, especially if the D600 has a 7200RPM drive and the good nVidia graphics. Heh, if you want rid of that D600 I know a non-profit that will be glad to have you donate it Intel's not putting PAE in that era of Pentium M is one of those odd things; my older Dell Latitude C-series with a 1.8Ghz P4 can run the PAE kernel just fine, but the much faster D610 with the 2GHz Pentium M can't?

[CentOS] LPR to windows lpd question
Hi All, I am trying to print from a CentOS 5.3 server to a windows LPD service. After enabling the LPD service on Windows and creating a LPR port to a particular printer when I execute the following command on CentOS server I do not come out. lpr -H winprint:515 -P printer1 file.txt The above command does not exit. Do I need to configure anything on the server to be able to use lpr as a client ? Ultimately I want to use the above command to print to various printers based on different parameters. On a different note when I execute the same command on Fedora 14 I get Unknown as the error. Thanks Tharun ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Maybe I'm wrong... well, if you had a system with a IA, PPC or a 586 processor, you would have understood how that logic works out. In reality though, it's not that Linux itself excludes it, it's that the upstream vendor has decided THEY weren't going to support it. In the past, CentOS has had some custom kernels that supported features/processors that the upstream vendor didn't but I think that's a lot of work for them to maintain on their own and their enthusiasm diminished over time.

They added it back in for the Core family. That's the odd thing; PAE has been there since the Pentium Pro, so the P3 had it. It seems that all x86 processors since the PPro, except for the 400MHz FSB Pentium M's, have PAE. Oddly, the 2.0GHz Dothan is documented as having PAE; it's only the 400MHz FSB (Banias) ones that are documented as having PAE disabled. The PAE feature apparently affects more than just the address space, at least according to the Pentium M Wikipedia article. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

We all already know none of you are going to back down. Just agree that you agree and be done with it. Regular CentOS 6.x is not PAE enabled. There is kernel-ml in ElRepo that has non-PAE kernel enabled. It is 2.6.39-4, so it is not supported by upstream, but it will run CentOS Desktop version nicely. I plan on releasing unofficial CentOS Desktop oriented LiveDVD with all the goodies like newest Firefox and ElRepo kernel modules for NIC's and wireless, and upgrade repository with missing or newer packages of Desktop applications in next week or two. I am sure I can produce unofficial LiveDVD with non-PAE kernel and so can others.

I gather you have gone into full speculation mode since the only way you could install it on a computer that doesn't support PAE is to create a new installer disc (ie anaconda) uses this kernel throughout. Then there's the issue of installing an OS that depends upon a specific resource who remains engaged in the process to update.
