From greg at runlevelzero.net Sun Sep 5 19:50:12 2004 From: greg at runlevelzero.net (Greg Kurtzer) Date: Sun, 5 Sep 2004 19:50:12 -0700 Subject: [cAos] mirror.caosity.org change... Message-ID: <20040906025012.GA32410@runlevelzero.net> sorry for the massive cross-post, but I wanted to make sure that I get everyone that needs to know this. Mirror.caosity.org is having problems keeping up with all of the mirrors. Rsync is a memory hog when dealing with large repositories, and mirror just can't handle it. I am migrating mirror.caosity.org to a new host which should be able to handle the load better. Also, I will be limiting the IP's that can rsync directly to mirror. Only the public mirrors will be allowed to connect directly to mirror.caosity.org via rsync. Expect this migration to happen in the next several days, and please let me and the caos-mirror list know if there are any problems. Also, comments and concerns should be sent to caos-mirror at casosity.org. Thanks. Greg -- Greg M.

We need to change the instructions for becoming a mirror as it wont be possible to populate their mirror before telling us about it , we will need to request an access ip address first.

I updated the "notes for mirrors" page. I added a new line, about 5 paragraphs down from the top. I do not fully understand what you wrote, so I followed your wording as closely as I could. Please take a look, and let me know if my wording needs clarification.

While we did use Centos as a building starting point, we had to update centos to the 2.6 kernel so that the cAos-2 glibc worked properly. You may wish to update that say that started with Centos3 and used that as the core, but then continued development and ended up with a new core specific to cAos-2 (or something like that). This looks very cool. Thanks!

There has been no announcement at this time, because nothing has been released at this time, so you didn't miss anything. On the other hand, we have been discussing this in IRC for several weeks now. ;) The plan was that the current mirror is overloaded, and couldn't handle the load of another release. We have been migrating to a new server and a RRDNS mirror solution. With this, we have been updating the new mirror pool with the updates and new releases. What you will find there is the release of Centos-3.3 for i386 and x86_64 as well as the alpha cAos-2. Expect the announcements to come after the mirrors have caught up with the changes and community testing. If you would like to test Centos-3.3 please feel free to grab the ISO's or do a yum upgrade by pointing to an updated mirror and changing the $releasever to 3.3 in yum.conf. Please send bugs to centos-devel at caosity.org. Stay tuned for the release announcements. -- Greg M.

The yum upgrade can't work without header files, right?

After updating from 3.2 (kernel 15.0.4.EL) to 3.3 (kernel 20.EL.c0), the agpgart.o module would no longer load, meaning that startx would fail. The fix (for me, at least) was to use the agpgart.o module from kernel 15.0.4.EL, ignoring the "wrong kernel version" warning messages.
