[CentOS-virt] What are these directories on virtio-win-0.1-81.iso?
Hi All I just downloaded virtio-win-0.1-81.iso from http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/WindowsGuestDrivers/Download_Drivers Looking through the ISO, I find two directories: WLH and WNET. What are they? Also, I find a WXP and and XP directory. Why two of them? Many thanks, -T ___ CentOS-virt mailing list CentOS-virt@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt

[CentOS] Amavisd-new delivers spam emails
I recently noticed that my email server now delivers spam to final recipients even though the spam score is more than the $sa_kill_level_deflt. A probable reason is that some amavisd update has introduced new configuration variables, which I have not defined in my configuration, and the default value of some such variable causes this unwanted behavior. I tried to go through documentation, but did not find the reason. Has anybody else had the same problem? # amavisd -V amavisd-new-2.8.0 (20120630) - Jussi ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] Buggy power [was: Re: Canon PIXMA mg5420 or HP Photo Smart 7520]
On 09/10/2014 08:46 AM Bonno Bloksma wrote: Hi, In need of a new printer, having done a bit or research, and considering either the Canon PIXMA mg5420 or the HP Photo Smart 7520. Besides the Linux support there is one other thing to consider. The HP Photosmart 7520 was designed never to be turned off. It comes with a smart power brick that does not seem to work smart. I have been in contact with HP support and they claim never to have heard of the problem, eventhough a simple google search will show lots of complaints, and even supplied me with a second printer and powerbrick to solve the problem, but the problem is still there. If you turn off the printer the powerbrick will turn itself off as well after 5 sec. It is supposed to turn itself on again if the printer asks for power, it doesn't. I need to pull the plug, reinsert is and switch on the printer within 5 sec. :-( Thanks for your knowledge and experience. FWIW. Bonno Bloksma In the comments about the Photo Smart 7520 on Amazon I read about people (or maybe it was just one guy) who claimed he needed to repeated plug and unplug the power cord to get it to work. What you describe is probably that problem. Another guy on Amazon said that his printer mysteriously turned itself off one day. Thanks for the info! And the great clarification. I certainly don't want to buy a printer that's going to throw problems at me all the time. Sometimes I feel like the public has been turned into a bunch of beta testers for some of this new technology. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

My experience, never again Canon. We got two new PIXMA MP620 donated to me and my daughter. Wireless, scan and print works (Fedora 20). Both died before exhausting the first cartridges. Message was , if i remember properly, some 2xxx number. In youtube you can find some suggestions for repair. Mostly with hammer. It was mostly used as a scanner. Nothing works any more.

My point is that the tutorial, which at least judging from my experience, won't work in 7, is detailed and helpful for both novice and the more experienced. In contrast, the upstream seems as if they basically paid someone to dress up read the man page, in 10 pages. furthermore, which wiki article are you referring to? the search yields many results like: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/CentOS5ConvertToRAID?highlight=%28raid%29 Again, apologies. Some mental shorthand on my part, as I was recently using that article in a work situation. I meant this one. http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Install_On_Partitionable_RAID1 Which I suppose you can call it cut and paste. Now, I did, for my own knowledge, see if I could get that to work on CentOS-7, but I couldn't. which might be not what you want, depending on what you want. I'm no fan of copy and paste tutorials if they are not used just for very specific use cases. and just using a centos 5 tutorial on centos 7 seems not to be the best way to start things. I don't know how much knowledge the OP has or doesn't have. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect instructions to include examples and commands, but we're now very much outside the scope of this thread. :) TL;DR I wasn't clear. My point, in one sentence is that I don't consider the RH documentation very good, and a tutorial for CentOS 7, written in the style of the tutorial to which I link, would be far more helpful. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

It was well set up by someone else and has worked very well. It also has a Xen kernel and several VMs, also all working well. The age of the OS and accumulated cruft in the application side, together with the absence of the person who did the original setup, have me thinking about a new clean install - first on a transitional box for continuity, then a new config on the current hardware with the same basic design but more up-to-date; we are now a long way from version 5.3. I had seen reference to a much improved raid installation procedure in version 7. I can now confirm that the process is indeed much simpler and so I have been able to get on with performance testing in various scenarios, which was what I wanted to do. My experience has been that of you want a tutorial on any topic the internet is flooded with the. But I didn't see one for this topic, so I thought a routine query on this list would get me a starting point. That didn't exactly happen. But there's lots of food for thought in the answers I got and I'll be able to take at least some of that forward. And if I'm motivated enough may I'LL make the tutorial!
