I am running CentOS 6.5 in a VZ container and today when I wanted to run yum update command I receive the following error messages: rpmdb: unable to join the environment error: db3 error(11) from dbenv->open: Resource temporarily unavailable error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Resource temporarily unavailable (11) error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm CRITICAL:yum.main: Googling the message I find several-year old posts where it seems that the database has been corrupted (or similar.)

Hey cool, thanks, using the kernel-ml actually works and gives me a usable ethx device! Ok, proves the concept, but is using a kernel-ml recommended for a production centos6 system? Or should I rather get a different USB 3.0 NIC that actually works with centos6 ? Which one? (Has to be a Gigabit USB NIC) Kind regards Michael ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Is it actually the drive making the click sound? If so, it sounds like a bad drive. You can throw the drive at the WD drive tester and see what it reports--it won't necessarily find every physical problem, but it usually finds the most egregious ones.

I just checked the device ID pair [0df6:0072] against the current
CentOS-6 kernel but it returned nothing. However, I did find the
driver in ELRepo's kernel-ml:
alias usb:v0DF6p0072d*dc*dsc*dp*ic*isc*ip*in* ax88179_178a
It shows that the driver that supports your device is ax88179_178a . I
suggest you try installing kernel-ml [1] and see if your NIC works. If
that works well, you'd want to ask ELRepo if backporting the driver
for EL-6 is possible.

[CentOS] USB 3.0 NIC / Sitecom NL-031
Hi, I have a Sitecom NL-031 USB 3.0 NIC which I'd like to use under
centos 6.5, but unfortunately I see no support. Or, I am doing something
wrong.
According to LKDDb (Linux Kernel Driver DataBase), the correct driver is
"CONFIG_USB_NET_AX8817X: ASIX AX88xxx Based USB 2.0 Ethernet Adapters"
but obviously, I've grabbed a non matching "iProduct", because mine is
obviously 0x0072 (see lsusb below) and the driver lists 0x0056.
From the LKDDb:
vendor: 0df6 ("Sitecom Europe B.V."), product: 0056 ("LN-031 10/100/1000
Ethernet Adapter")
vendor: 0df6 ("Sitecom Europe B.V."), product: 0056 ("LN-031 10/100/1000
Ethernet Adapter")
When i modprobe for the NIC, I get something very unspectacular ...
root@mybox:/root [0] >modprobe asix
/var/log/messages:
Apr 5 20:02:23 mybox kernel: usbcore: registered new interface driver asix
dmesg:
usbcore: registered new interface driver asix
BTW, I got this passed on by ESXi to a CentOS VM.
Do you see any chance to get this running?
Thanks in advance
Michael
