I installed Centos on some machines that need long term support. I'm running up against some simple user convenience issues. How to play MP3? I've been really puzzled today that the addon rpm sites like livna, rpmforge, rpmfusion, epel, don't seem to have something like amarok-mp3 or xine-lib-mp3. What am I missing? It can be done in Ubuntu, Debian, and Fedora Linux. In the

When yum tries to acces yjl repository, http://yellowjacketlinux.fileburst.com/yum/yjl/el5/i386/yjl-misc/repodata/repomd.xml it gets back Not Found The requested URL /yum/yjl/el5/i386/yjl-misc/repodata/repomd.xml was not found on this server. Few days ago everything was OK. This repository is needed for the gnumeric install on CentoOS 5.1. Is there an alternate repo available for the

I believe this could be interesting to a number of people on the list, not just me.

Is there any 3rd party repository for which I can get the latest versions of Firefox and Thunderbird for CentOS 5.1 and install them using yum ?

Hello there, Using R 2.4.0 on Solaris (Unix): I am trying to control the X axis range on a simple time of day plot. I made a test program (below) that gets file time stamp information from the files in the directory where R starts. The goal of the test program is to plot the time of day of file creation on an x axis that spans a user-specified range (like 12:00:00 to 15:00:00). If I allow

Dear List: Somewhere in the R-Statistical Software website, I remember having read about using the opensource Bluefish editor with R. During a recent visit to the site, I could not find the link or reference. Also, when I searched the list archives (http://maths.newcastle.edu.au/~rking/R/about.html) for "bluefish", the search returned no result. Has anyone in the list used

Hi, I just read the "Embedding R in Gnumeric" idea at http://www.r-project.org/SoC08/ideas.html. On my side, I intend to add as many statistics related plot types to the current gnumeric charting engine as possible. We already have boxplots and partial support for histograms. My immediate plans are to finish the histogram code and add probability plots

One problem with Wine has been that there were few serious open source win32 applications out there to test Wine with (ok, maybe my opinions are from 1997 :-) In any case, we have some great open source Win32 applications to test with. AbiWord is one. I just tried installing AbiWord 0.9 under the latest Codeweavers preview. The install worked -- but generated about a billion warnings of the

Hi, Some of you may recall that I got the VP3 decoder working with the xine multimedia player some time ago and posted a patch for anyone else to try. I really messed up when I did that since I generated the patch against some random CVS snapshot of xine-lib. I did better this time and generated the patch against the latest release of xine-lib (1.0-beta4, released today). If you

I've just installed v6.3 as a desktop (from Centos-6.3-i386-LiveCD.iso) and to get the hang of the Centos approach and then hope to move on to a server. I've been using linux *buntu for 5 years. Hope i don't sound like a nit but i've got a little confused with the repos. Hoping someone would be kind enough just to clarify. This installation is for stability whilst installing the

Hi, Since a number of people are eager to try out the native VP3 decoder in xine, I have made a patch available, bz2-compressed: http://www.pcisys.net/~melanson/codecs/xine-vp3-decoder-patch.bz2 To work with this patch: 1) Get the latest xine-lib from CVS. Visit this page for more details: http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=9655 The module name is xine-lib, but you will also need

Hello, i'm working in software development company, and we have a custom made software in VFP 6, as we're thinking on replacing all our win9x boxes to linux (since we got rid of those hard-to-manage-and-prone-to-error nt boxes) since we mostly use this app for everything, we tried to run it in Linux using wine. i downloaded the latest wine release, the codeweavers release and a CVS one,

Hi guys, I've been noticing more and more that antiword has trouble with many word documents. It may look like it's converted a document but leaves out headings and bits of text. I've been looking into getting openoffice to do it in headless mode but still have a way to go before it's stable. I was wondering if anyone else had any luck on this front? One quick fix I have found

Hi, I am an active contributor to the xine multimedia player project: http://xine.sf.net I would like to add FLAC support to xine.

I am having trouble with the audio decoder portion. Ideally, I would like to take the
