Red Hat :: RHEL 6 64 Bit Building 32 Bit Programs
Nov 13, 2010
I currently have an academic license of red hat enterprise linux Desktop/Workstation and red hat enterprise linux server. For those who don't know this will get me updates but no official support (the desktop/workstation costs 30 dollars and the server costs 80 dollars). Anywho i am trying to get wine to work but after strugglign with many dependency issues i tried to build it manually but it keeps telling me to install the 32 bit development libraries. how to do this (i am currently using fedora 14 having identical issues) and i cant get either crossover games to work with 3d games nor can i get wine to play any 3D related games (does regular windows programs just fine)

I am trying to build an tk.8.4.19 with the rpmbuild command. In the spec file there is a make command that uses the supplied Makefile that builds tk and untars it to the build directory /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/tk_8.4.19/unix .
The issue is that /usr/bin/wish is compiled with the make command and renamed to wish8.4, , and when the rpm does build it does not contain the link /usr/bin/wish -> /usr/bin/wish8.4 and there are other custom rpms on our systems (built by other people) that call /usr/bin/wish.
I have tried adding the ldconfig ln -sf /usr/bin/wish8.4 /usr/bin/wish in the %install and %build directives, it is in the tar file. I have tested it by creating the tar with the link and creating a null file call wish but it never gets built into the rpm. Whenever I call out /usr/bin/wish in the %file directive the rpm wont build.
I believe it will install and create the link if I tell it to ignore or skip the prereq check. That requires options to the yum command but it creates a problem because I need to to work with yum -y install <tk> or yum -y upgrade <tk> through a unattended script.
Bottom line is that I need the file to exist in the rpm or after the install and yum needs to be aware that /usr/bin/wish link is there so it doesn't require an override option during install.

I have 50 identical workstations that are being dropped shipped from the vendor directly to the remote locations. I need to install a identical configuration, including installed packages, scripts and customize configuration onto each of this workstations. I cannot set up a kickstart server to install from remotely because of my organizations security policies. Not to mention that it would be painfully slow. I thought about DD-ing my "Master" build and sending it to the remote sites, but some of the admins are not very Linux savvy. I would really like to build a bootable DVD that would install the cloned Master build from my server to theirs. I was looking for something that would look like Anaconda to the person installing the image. If I could get them through this base install I think it would be easy to document how to change the workstation unique parameters or value. How to accomplished this? BTW, this will be a RHEL 5.3 server install.

When using RPM/YUM or any other package manager, is the old version of that program deleted and then follow by an installation of the latest update? example:
nautilus-2.16.2-7.el5 update to nautilus-2.91.6-3.el5
will nautilus-2.16.2-7.el5 be uninstalled and then follow by an installation of nautilus-2.91.6-3.el5?

is possible to edited the default RHEL CD to have it automatically install RHEL based off of a kickstart file that I will store locally on the CD. My plan would be to put a cd in a server and have the OS automatically being installed.

A client has sent me an RHEL 5.1 box for me to do some work on, but it's not registered with Red Hat. This is causing me problems, because it's a minimal installation, and I need some more dev software.My immediate reaction was to install various bits (emacs, and so on) from my Centos 5(.0) DVD.The base RHEL system only had one (disabled) repo entry,so I added a yum DVD repo entry in yum.conf.d.
This looked good to start with, but it doesn't work. Something in RHEL's pirut/yum/rpm/whatever is getting confused, and can't work out what is/isn't installed.
Question - how do you maintain an unregistered RHEL box? Has RH done something to make life difficult? Is my problem simply that I'm using a Centos 5.0 DVD, instead of Centos 5.1? Am I stuck with downloading lots of rpms from the net and doing everything manually? I really don't want to do that.

I have a database server running RHEL 5.1 32 bit that suffered some catastrophic failures about 6 months ago. We were able to patch it back together and keep it running, but now the manufacturing site it supports is going to shut down for two weeks and I would like to replace it permenantly. Does anyone have any guidance for that sort of thing? I'd like to have the new server up and running before hand, basically changing the hostname/ip and restoring the databases only on conversion day. I've done this in the past with HP UX - Red Hat conversions, but this is my first red hat to red hat move. Any advice or shortcuts?I forgot to add the other wrinkle. The new server will be running 64bit linux.

Environment:RHEL 5.2 and 5.4 AP x86_64, 2 drives (sda, sdb), installing without optional features like clustering and virtualization. I have tried this for a couple of days now and just can't get it to work. My goal is to take the RHEL 5.2 DVD and RHEL 5.4 DVD and install them on separate drives of the same machine. I want the grub menu to give me a choice. I prefer to understand the steps and choices offered me by the install dialog to do this rather than fiddle with grub.conf. If that is not possible, I will write up the bug.
So far, I just get the the error 13 when trying to start the grub added second OS. I have read elsewhere that "Anaconda frequently recognizes the other operating system and sets up grub so you can boot from either operating system". That would be nice. The install dialog lets me choose a drive to install to. I have figured out that I need to check "review and modify partitioning layout" to enter the advanced grub choices. Do I have it install a boot loader for the 1st OS? Trying to add the 1st OS during the second OS install creates a grub conf with no kernel line in the added boot stanza.

I am having trouble building vim with gui from source on Fedora 13. I am using
Code:
./configure --enable-gui=auto --with-features=huge --prefix=$HOME/myvim
but I get
Quote:
checking for X... (cached) no
checking if X11 header files can be found... no
checking --enable-gui argument... no GUI support.
I have installed GTK and X11 dev packages. What's missing?

I'm building from source because the packaged Vim doesn't have all the features I want.

I have been meaning to do this for awhile. I have a relatively decent machine currently running FreeNAS, a BSD based NAS system. It works great as a NAS box, but now I want it to do more. I want it to act as a file server/NAS, also as a router for my home network, so obviously I will add a second ethernet port as well as wireless "N" capability. As a router, I want to have fine control over my home computers. And, I have a multiple camera security setup, using Motion, that I want to run on this machine 24/7. I know Motion doesn't take a huge amount of horsepower, since I am currently running it on an inexpensive laptop running Squeeze.
What I would like advice on is how some other people on this forum would accomplish this. FreeNAS works great for what it was designed for, as well as IPCop, but neither will do all that I want, so I plan to run Debian on it, most likely Squeeze, as it will soon be Stable.

I am returning to Ubuntu as my primary OS. For this, I am building a new system (I have a beast of a Windows desktop, but retiring that as an HTPC and building a new desktop). Will be moving some items from the Windows desktop like the speakers, keyboard/mouse, monitors, etc, that will not serve with the HTPC configuration. Basically, this is what I am building (amost identical to my current Windows machine, except it's a Core2Quad and has 12GB of RAM):
i7-860
P55 chipset motherboard
8GB of RAM
system/boot volume volume 2x64GB 2nd gen 64GB SSDs in RAID0 (have hardware garbage collection so will run find in RAID)
[code]....
Video Card: with 10.04, should I go with ATI or nVidia for a card? Am running triple monitors, and will be gaming using Cross-Games and Cedega. Which drivers between the two manufacturers is performing the best and would be best for gaming/multiple monitors.
RAID Card: The 2320 says it has native support in the 2.6.25 kernel. I get good speeds (500-600 MB/sec on both the SSDs and the RAID5) and no troubles with it on the Win Desktop. Should I have any issues with it under 10.04 or would there be a suggestion in the <$350 price range to replace it with? Or, would running the ICH10R off the motherboard work with the alternate CD?
SSD Setup: What partitions would be best to keep off the SSD volume and on the RAID5? I know /tmp, /home, /var, and /swap should be kept off the SSDs to reduce the excessive writes. Any other suggestions? With a 128GB system/boot volume, what would you do for partition sizes there?
Sound Card: Is the Omega supported under 10.04? Or another suggestion for good 7.1 surround sound?

I am going to buy new computer, will assemble it myself. I have searched extensively this forum and finally at least decided on PSU, Corsair VX450 which is available in India also. I want to do these 3 things on my new computer:
Browse internet.
Do Programming (C, Lisp, Emacs) on Arch/Debian Linux.
Play 1080p/720p HD/Blu-Ray videos with 6000kbps bitrate.
No games and no Windows
I already have Samsung SyncMaster 2243LNX monitor and a SONY DVD-ROM. Now I need to decide on other components like CPU, MOBO, Case, HDD. Searching forums make me convince on WD HDD and Gigabyte MOBO. Regarding CPU I am still confused on AMD vs Intel. I have understood that I don't need 4-Cores, 2 core will suffice my needs.

Do I undersatnd correct? If you build LAN with several Linux PCs and no DHCP server, you will need to configure every computer yourself. But if you add one more PC to this LAN which is DHCP server, all you need is to configure this DHCP server and write in config files of other computers to use DHCP, network will work without configuring other computers?

I am trying to figure out the best server configuration for the following:Low power (I want to plug the server in and forget about it)High redundancy of data (I don't want to loose my music and documents!)The ability to stream music + movies to laptop (maybe subsonic or Jinzora)VPN server with IPsec or OpenVPN NAS $800 budget 2TB with ability to add more drives :Unix Server with software RAID (maybe RAID6)
VPN setup on virtual OS via VirtualBox
NAS setup on virtual OS via VirtualBox
My Questions:What would be the best raid configuration if I wanted at least 2TB of data and the ability to add more disks when the space begins to add up?What would be the best OS to use for setting up a software RAID (is a FakeRAID a better solution)?Does it make more sense to separate the VPN and NAS with different OS's?My goal will be to access my data from any computer from anywhere but mostly just my Laptop from work.

I'm trying to build boost on a 64-bit CentOS 5.4 install. I have Python 2.6.4 built and installed at /opt/Python_2.6.4/, and I've appended the user-config.jam file with:
using python : 2.6 : /opt/Python_2.6.4/python : /opt/Python_2.6.4/Include : /opt/Python_2.6.4/Lib ;
The standard system Python is 2.4.1 but the tools I'm using require 2.6, so I've built this version and installed it independently of the system version 2.4.1 to avoid any conflicts.
As I'm sure you've already imagined, I get the error:
LONG_BIT definition appears wrong for platform (bad gcc/glibc config?)
I see that this is a long standing bug, but I have yet to find a fix. I've tried various CCFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, etc. to push for a 64-bit compile or a 32-bit compile (-m64 or -m32).
The offending file is pyport.h - is there a 64-bit friendly version that I don't know about?
