[clue] cmdb's? (seeking advice)

Not really a hardware thing that I have in mind.  More a question of
looking for a way to find a searchable list of system changes that you can
say refine, so when something breaks.  You can, for example, bring up a
list of system changes that occurred within, oh say, the last week.   I
gather most of the CMDBs are pay-per software.  Idoit, and onecmdb for
example, are FOSS, but so far, problematic at best.   Some of the options
I've looked at run in windows, few to none run on linux.  At least not
well.  Looking at itop, not convinced on that one either.  Looks like I'd
have to get a webserver going to have that running, but I don't see many
ways around that.  Everything I look at either runs on apache on tomcat.
Most have some sort of mysql backend.
