How can I determine what repositories are "active" on my system? Is there a way that I can enable and disable repositories? My preference would be to work from the command line.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to write a small script that will run as root, but launch a command with sudo as another user. I want that user to be whichever user is active user. That is, the user that is using GDM right now, or the one that is logged into the current console. (by current console, I don't mean the user running the script, but rather the user logged into the console currently displayed on the screen.)How can this be done?
Code:
ACTIVE_USER=`somecommand`
test `id -u pulse` -ge 1000 && sudo -u $ACTIVE_USER $*
What can I use for "somecommand"?

I've gone to Edit > Software Sources and unchecked everything in Other Software, rebooted and still they remain. I then went into /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and deleted the offending .list files, and they're still there. How do I get rid of them?
I have Fedora Linux 13 64bit system. I use System Monitor to check which process is taking how much memory and cpu. Normally I have dozens of Chrome and Firefox windows open. The Processes tab shows which process is taking how much cpu/ram resources but I unfortunately there is no option like right click and make the window active that matches the PID (the one process that I have currently highlighted). Usually there is a chrome process taking up 30 or 40 percent of CPU while dozens other chrome processes taking much less cpu. I must determine which chrome window ( or any application which has multiple instances running) is taking that much CPU time. So can some one help me to solve this problem?

I had only Arch on an HDD.sda2 was "/".Now it's with Windows XP and sda2 is not a root any more but a container partition wich has sda{5,6,7} in it. I configured the dual boot and it works. It finds Arch and boots it, but not completely. Stops after some time and says: unable to determine the file system type of /dev/sda2. FSTAB is configured, sda{5,6,7} are on their places. So I can't boot Arch. XP boots correctly. What do I do with this error?Also it says: try adding rootfstype=your_filesystem_type to kernel command line.

View 2 Replies View Relatedhow to setup an Active/Active Load Balanced and High Available (If one of the nodes is down the system still runs) MySQL cluster. I have found quite a few howto's but I have some things unclear in my mind. I found a few solutions like this one: [URL] or this: [URK] Those are using two or four MySQL nodes, two Load Balancers to avoid a single point of failure but only one MySQL cluster management server. What happens if the MySQL cluster management fails?
I have also found a "MySQL Master-Master Circular Replication" technique but from what I read, with this option there is a chance that conflicts will arise if node A and node B both insert an auto-incrementing key on the same table.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm in a bit of a unique situation here. I have a remote system running two instances of RHEL5.1 (dualbooting) and I need to install RHEL6 on the other partition from the active one. I understand that you can't upgrade 5.1 to 6.0 so I would need to do a fresh install. My basic question are, is there a way to install an OS from an existing OS to another partition? Can anaconda be run from an already installed system? Is it possible to manually install a system just from RPMs?
I've come across things like debootstrap for Debian and haven't found anything similar for Red Hat systems.

I am running Suse 11.1 64bit, with KDE, recently I received a pop up on my screen, "something about update problems", I used Yast 2 and selected online Update and it couldn't find updates for Nvidia and froze at that point. I dis-enabled that repository and refreshed all of the remaining Repositories individually and it seemed to work. I then went to the repositories listing and selected "Add" and selected "community" repositories and received the following: WARNING Unable to download list of repositories or no repositories defined. What is my problem? How do I acquire the list of community repositories? I can live with out the Nvidia repository for now but would eventually like to get it back.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAttach a Fedora/RHEL/CentOS system to an Active Directory DomainBelow is a step by step outline of how to configure a Linux Samba fileserver to use an Active Directory domain for authentication and authorization in place of flat files. Note that this configuration has been replicated using Fedora 10, RHEL 5.3 and CentOS 5 since they all more or less share the same code base.me of the example server in this document is erver1.domain.forest.org, substitute correctly where appropriate. At the very least following packages must also be installed:
sambasamba-commonsamba-clientkrb5-workstationopenldap-clientsIt would be prudent to understand the underlying concepts of how Kerberos and Samba work prior to deploying this type of server. I find that SE-Linux will interfere with Samba services, particularly with winbind. I usually set SE-Linux to be in a permissive mode. It is possible to update the SE-Linux policies but that is outside the scope of this document, i.e you're on your own. In some cases I turned SE-Linux off since it was causing winbind to stop responding.

the HDAPS system in IBM / Lenovo Thinkpad laptops is, in principle, supported by the hdaps kernel module. However, it is actually *useless* since it refuses to load on current models which report Lenovo as vendor ID instead of IBM The alternative is the tp_smapi module which, according to ThinkWiki, is strongly recommended anyway. It is not available in any CentOS repo, so I tried to compile it. However, I get the following error:
