If that says 6.4, and yum update doesn't update to the latest CentOS 6.6, something *is* broken on your system. 6.4 is from 2013... -- john r pierce, recycling bits in santa cruz

Problem with bringing up X. As I also stated in another post, centos 6.4 had no problems with my old graphics card. So, why is centos 7 crapping out?
