CentOS 5 :: GDM Delay At Startup?
Mar 5, 2010
I'm having a problem with GDM very similar to the one described in the thread below, though they did not find a solution.
[URL]
Basically when I boot the machine I first see the terminal login, then after a moment I get what looks like some graphical corruption followed by GDM appearing.
I've already attempted reinstalling GNOME and X, then manually reinstalling GDM, but none have solved the problem. I'm currently in the process of enabling boot logging as described in the thread, so I'll post that soon.

I use to auto start Firefox and Thunderbird. I would like to add others but using a delay. For instance, Firefox starts with 10 seconds of delay, Thunderbird with 30 second an so on. I tried to make a script using "sleep" command, but I am not expert and nothing worked. So, do you know if already exist an application that does this if not, are you able to show me how to create the script?

After GRUB 2 comes up (I'm running Ubuntu 10.10) and I choose the OS to boot, there is about a 5 second delay where nothing appears to happen after I make the selection -- no disk activity. It happens consistently every time I boot. Again, this is after I choose the OS to boot, so it shouldn't have anything to do with the standard delay to allow me to choose the appropriate OS.Is there a good way to troubleshoot this and determine what is causing the delay?

Since my last server upgrade, last Thursday, cups is having a strange behavior: I have 3 text-only printers, and an application that prints to them. The application, to print 5 lines, it sends 5 jobs to the printer. Before the upgrade, all the jobs where printed sequentially, without any delay. After the upgrade, cups makes a small delay (5s or more) between every one...Its very annoying for the users...

I am using centos 5 for squid. I have enabled delay pools in it. The scenario is I have two clients machines have IP address 192.168.1.200 (The Manager) and 192.168.1.201 (Manager Assistant). The issue is I assign 512kbps to the Manager IP address and 128 to his assistant. When either of them download it start from 60 KB/Sec they finally get 11 KB/Sec which is wrong. If I disable the assistant delay pools settings then the Manager get 60KB/Sec continuously. By enabling both squid does not show any error.
Following is my line of code taken from squid.conf
Code:
acl our_512kbps src "/usr/local/squid/etc/our_512kbps"
acl our_128kbps src "/usr/local/squid/etc/our_128kbps"
http_access allow our_512kbps
http_access allow our_128kbps
http_access deny all
#Now Delay Pools
delay_pools 1
delay_class 1 1
delay_parameters 1 65536/65536 #512/8*1024=65536
delay_access 1 allow our_512kbps
delay_access 1 deny all
#Now delay class 2

I have install squid 2.6 in my cent os 5 system. The proxy server is working perfect using the following method.
Code:
[root@localhost squid-2.6.STATBLE22]# ./configure@--prefix=/usr/local/squid
I want to enable delay pools feature in it.For that purpose I do as following
Code:
[root@localhost squid-2.6.STATBLE22]# ./configure --enable-delay-pools && "configuration successful"
The question is should I configure it as I do it for squid
./configure --enable-delay-pools--prefix=/usr/local/squid
To enable delay pools may I need the correction in the steps which I have taken.
[root@localhost squid-2.6.STATBLE22]#make
[root@localhost squid-2.6.STATBLE22]# make install
In short to enable delay pools may I just use
# ./configure --enable-delay-pools
then
#make
#make install

We have a squid-proxy configured with 1 delay pool to limit the bandwith to 6M. I have to create a kind of exception for a specific
remote host for which we want to reserve 1M which is not included within the 6M. How should I do that? Here is our actual configuration of the delay pools
acl all_network src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
delay_pools 1
delay_class 1 1

I've run into this problem this week. The other night a power supply failed on a different system and appears to have surged the UPS which it and some other computers were plugged in to. One computer was fine, but the RAID server that is used for backups ended up with a bad disk and this "Disabling IRQ #169" message now shows up during boot, right after starting udev and setting the hostname. The system then sits there for 3-5 minutes before repeating a scroll of "/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: line 966: /bin/usleep: Input/output error"
I have booted with linux recovery from the CentOS DVD in order to replace the drive that was damaged. I rebuilt the raid array and all the data seems to be fine. There is another message though after "Red Hat nash version 5.1....." no raid disks and with names: "isw_bf jihdchhi_Hostname" failed to stat() /dev/mapper/isw_bf jihdchhi_Hostname
I was considering doing a complete reinstall of CentOS but if there is another solution I would much appreciate it, is it perhaps an issue with Grub not being able to find the updated array? As it is, it is impossible to boot the system except for using a live CD to do it.

I put one script in /etc/init.d/abc.sh. Now I want it to run at startup.
How can I do that with chkconfig?
chkconfig --add abc.sh
But I am not sure how it works.

This system has been centos 5.2, 5.3 and now after an update ( through yum ) to 5.4 i can't get to the startup screen. System was a barebones kit with ASUS P5Q-E motherboard, WD-500gb sata, Intel Processor
After the update I get:
BIOS Bug MCFG area at e0000000 is not E820-reserved
NOT Using MMCONFIG
I get to the part that says: press "i" for interactive startup ... starting "udev", then nothing. Just black screen. I followed other recommendations and loaded the lastest BIOS onto the motherboard, but the issue still persists. I'm also not able to boot any of the older kernels through the grub menu. Not sure where to go from here since I can't boot into anything.

Ok, i'm sure this is really basic and it's probably been posted before but I have searched and can't find anything.
Long time linux user, first time with centOS
I am building a basic firewall system with ssh acces only, I only occasionally need gui/gnome access so I have sent my init level to init 3 in /etc/inittab.
My problem is during startup the screen wants to run the gui startup and for some reason the driver isn't quite right so it flashes the screen every time it starts a process and says [OK] because of this I miss 90% of the startup information.
I have already disabled the splash screen in /boot/grub/grub.conf and that did disable the grub splash screen but how can I disable the "centOS" spash stuff? I only want txt at startup, I don't want the system to do anything graphical until I type startx.

I used my boot disk in rescue mode to solve this, but I would really like to know how to do this the easy way.
Question: when I am booting up and getting all those "OK" green remarks, how do I cancel a daemon that freezes instead of giving me an ok or failed? I have tried <Ctrl><C> with no joy. I have tried dropping to interactive mode ("I") and bypassing the bad daemon, but interactive mode freezes when I go to start GDM, so no joy there either.

I am trying to get the KDE Media screen saver working in GNOME. Is there a way to use kde's screensaver program in gnome on startup, instead of gnome's screen saver program? Basically, I am trying to disable gnome's screensaver, and load kde's program in its place at gnome startup.

I have an annoying problem with a 2 nodes cluster that I don't understand.
One of my server is totally shutdown.
When I start cman after a reboot on the other server, it hangs on "Starting fencing...". The process which is actually hanging is : /sbin/fence_tool -w -t 300 -m 45 join
When I start this program manually, I get this output :
# /sbin/fence_tool -w -t 300 -m 45 join
Waiting for all 2 nodes to be members
Waiting for all 2 nodes to be members
Waiting for all 2 nodes to be members
Waiting for all 2 nodes to be members
(and so on...)
What I don't understand is why the fence_tool program wait for the 2nd node to join the cluster and don't fence the other node.
Here is my cluster.conf :
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<cluster name="ctpsrv-bdd" config_version="7">
<fence_daemon clean_start="0" post_fail_delay="0" post_join_delay="20"/>
<cman expected_votes="1" two_node="1"/>
[Code]....
Would it be a good idea to edit the cman startup script and remove the "-w" option of command fence_tool join, so the command do not hang up ?

I would like to use emerald on oracle linux 5. I prefer this forum so I migrated to here! In fact, I already managed to import some themes in emerald, and to apply them, but after a reboot there was an error message (I don't remember it but I can retry to boot if you want), and my new emerald theme was not loaded, instead I had the default one, and when I launched emerald I wasn't able to import a new theme, there was no theme in the emerald window. so I tried to import one with the file manager by clicking on the "import" button, but in my home folder (/home/olivier) I had ... nothing : no file, no directory, yet there are still on the disk, I verified.
this seems an error of rights, but I don't know what to do. I must also specify that I have not already put "fusion-icon" in the list of the applications to launch at the startup, so I have to launch it after the boot (and it's what I did after the boot I spoke about above. I don't remember if I launched fusion-icon as "root" or "olivier"...

I use CentOS 5.5 and I've trouble in run shell script after system reboot. That script runs jboss server and it looks that way:
#!/bin/sh
rm -R -f /opt/billing/jboss-6.0.0.M1/server/default/tmp/
rm -R -f /opt/billing/jboss-6.0.0.M1/server/default/work/
/opt/billing/jboss-6.0.0.M1/bin/run.sh -c default -b 0.0.0.0 -C /opt/billing/jboss-6.0.0.M1/server/default/lib/ > /dev/null &
I've created user account for jboss.
privileges of above script are okay. I've tried so far:
- add command to /etc/rc.local
- add script to /etc/rc3.d/ and create symbolic link to it in /etc/init.d/
- add run script by @reboot annotation in crontab (crond automatically starts with OS)
and jboss still sleeps after reboot. I've noticed that commands which remove directories seem to work when I've added them explictly to /etc/rc.local. But next command which runs jboss hasn't been executed.

Centos 5.6 - I'm trying to lock the screen immediately after successful gnome user login. My steps...
System > Preferences > More Preferences > Sessions > Startup Programs tab > Add
I've tried the following...
gnome-screensaver-command --lock
/usr/bin/gnome-screensaver-command --lock
Neither of these seem to work from the Sessions gui. Although from terminal I can run gnome-screensaver-command --lock with no problems.

I'm trying to execute script (java,php) on startup....before this we set it in /etc/inittab and it works find, but lately i found that the php script not startup as usual after we do yum update( although java script still run normally). code...
Another thing i want to ask is, if i have more scripts to run at startup, what should i do becoz there is limited terminal that i can use.
Someone told me that i can:
1)-put the script in /etc/init.d such that i can add it with chkconfig and run as service (not sure how to do this in details also)
2)-add a script in /etc/rc.local (not sure how?write what script)
