I downloaded the .rpm file from Google and am trying to install Picasa for Linux on CentOS 5. I get the below error. Is this because I'm using SELinux or because of something else? I found a small Picasa folder in /opt (24 items, 143.7 KB) but it seems to end there. Picasa is one of the programs my wife uses on Windows. TIA! [root at dell2400 lanny]# rpm -Uvh picasa-2.2.2820-5.i386.rpm

...via cups on the mac and also, how do I get a start menu or somewhere to run my applications without having to run them from a command line? If this works, I will not be able to have my teachers run apps from a cli. There will need to be a shortcut or something on their DOCK or desktop. Thanks!! Lannie

I am updating my daughters CentOS 5.2 box. When pup was Resolving Dependencies, I got an error for mplayer: "Missing dependency. libizo.so.1 is needed by package mplayer". Questions: (a) Where do I get that file? (b) How do I install it? TIA! Lanny

This morning, I did "yum update" on my wife's box. It did not update the kernel. I ran the command again, and there is a response that no updates are available. Her box is a Compaq Evo D300v Celeron. During the past couple of days, when I did "yum update", on my daughters box and mine (Dell Dimensions), the kernel was updated and in the GRUB menus now, there are two (2)

I had installed Picasa,apparently properly, but am unable to launch the application. In the GNOME Desktop menu, Applications > Graphics > Picasa > Picasa it does not launch. Reinstalled it and the same issue. Reinstalling: picasa i386 2.7.3736-15 google It is installed in /opt/picasa Box is CentOS 5.5 (32 bit) fully updated. How can I get this app to

Is there an RPM for this? I think it's in the kdeedu package on the FC6 DVD. My wife is an amateur astronomer and she uses this excellent program. If upstream isn't including it, can I get it and not break my CentOS 4.4 system? (Also, I'd like to migrate her and my daughter to CentOS). TIA, Lanny

This is very OT. If list readers can point me in the right direction, to other mailing lists, or web sites for recommended databases, that will be much appreciated! My wife's doctor wants to move records, for approximately 6000 patients (over a 12 year period), from paper (18th century) to a database (20th century). The data entry will be a PITA, for his secretaries, regardless of what

I have been using a free DNS service for the past seven (7) years. This morning, at 4 A.M., , I changed the "A" record for one of my web sites, to point to an IP address on a different server, so I could test. After watching the TTL count down from 3600 to zero, with the "dig" command, it then reset to 3600, but still resolved to the original IP address. :-) I set the

The web site for CentOS is not responding. I can ping it OK, but the web site is not responding to http requests from my browser. If the webmaster should happen to read this...

We rarely use M$ Windows, but I let my daughter surf pbskids.org while using Windows and a Trojan Horse modified or deleted the user32.dll file. I found the instructions on the Microsoft Support web site, and it would be very easy for me to expand a new copy of user32.dll if I could get the MS WinXP CD to work. It boots OK, I press a key so it will search hardware and it then has hard drive

Desktop is CentOS 5.4 (32 bit). I have Google Earth version 4.2.205.5730 (13NOV2007 build date) installed. I have checkinstall (spelling?) installed, but am not sure if that was installed before or after Google Earth was installed. I have the Google Repository installed, but apparently Google Earth cannot be updated via yum and probably it was not installed via yum. Question: What is the best

Hello: The box is dual boot (Win XP & CentOS 5). A Dell Dimension 4300 Celeron. There was an intermittent problem with this last year and last Thanksgiving, I wiped the HD and installed Win XP and CentOS 5 clean. My daughter asked me to install KStars which is in the kdeedu RPM on the Fedora Core 6 Install DVD. I did that, without any problems, on my box and on my wife's box. On the

Dropbox has an RPM for Fedora Core 9 (x86). I am running CentOS 5.4 on my Desktop, which I believe is based on Fedora Core 6. Are the libraries Fedora Core 9 uses substantially different than those CentOS 5.4 uses? If Dropbox had an SRPM available, I would Download that and Rebuild, but I'm sure it is Proprietary and they won't release an SRPM to me. TIA! Lanny

There are updates available, for the below multimedia packages (CentOS 5.5, 32 bit), but I'm getting missing dependency errors from yum update for these. ---> Package directfb.i386 0:1.2.10-1.el5.rf set to be updated ---> Package ffmpeg.i386 0:0.6.1-1.el5.rf set to be updated ---> Package ffmpeg-libpostproc.i386 0:0.6.1-1.el5.rf set to be updated ---> Package

I have a 2.9 MB MP3 file. Would like to use about the first 10%, to embed sound on a web page. The Packages I have in Applications > Sound & Video don't seem to be able to edit the file like that. Is there a Package I can get from a Yum Repository that will do that? Using CentOS 5.5 (32 bit). TIA!

Probably this is due to operator error, The Recycle Bin in GNOME disappeared, for this CentOS 5.5 (32 bit) Desktop PC. The box is fully updated. Is there a command I can use, or another procedure, to get the Recycle Bin in GNOME working again? The .trash folder is there. Incredibly rare that I use the KDE Desktop, but it is also installed on this box and the Trash folder (like the Recycle Bin

Hi, There is no AD server. Just a few freebsd/ubuntu servers. The PDC server has security = user and the other member servers have security = domain There are no windows servers in this small network. Only windows and ubuntu clients. The ubuntu clients can see all the samba servers. Only windows clients can't Regards, +=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ Lanny Baron
