8.2.2004 Latest yum update renders machine unbootable
...raded grub2 it still wouldn't boot, but I was able to do a reinstall of grub2 (81, the older version) to get it to boot with the old grub2, the new shim-x64, and the new kernel, and then I was able to successfully update grub2 with dnf on a command line.? So I have the following installed: [lowen at localhost ~]$ rpm -q shim-x64 shim-x64-15-13.el8.x86_64 [lowen at localhost ~]$ rpm -qa | grep ^grub2 grub2-common-2.02-87.el8_2.noarch grub2-tools-2.02-87.el8_2.x86_64 grub2-efi-x64-2.02-87.el8_2.x86_64 grub2-tools-extra-2.02-87.el8_2.x86_64 grub2-pc-2.02-87.el8_2.x86_64 grub2-tools-efi-2.02-87...

[CentOS-announce] Release for CentOS Linux 7 (1503 ) on x86_64

The versioning of the ISO's is 7.1503 (in one way of reading the actual name; you could read it as 7 spin 1503 or whatnot), but my /etc/centos-release says: [lowen at dhcp-pool114 ~]$ cat /etc/centos-release CentOS Linux release 7.1.1503 (Core) [lowen at dhcp-pool114 ~]$ > BTW.

Openshot 2.x (beta) on C7??
...built it from source using the system libraries you were not guaranteed support or that it would even work. You run the installer script, and it just works on pretty much any modern Linux. All files, libraries, etc for all dependencies are loaded into the appropriate /opt tree (example: > [lowen at localhost ~]$ ls -d /opt/M* > /opt/Mixbus-2.5_14392 /opt/Mixbus-3.1.66.uninstall.sh > /opt/Mixbus-2.5_14392.uninstall.sh /opt/Mixbus-3.2.22 > /opt/Mixbus-3.1.66 /opt/Mixbus-3.2.22.uninstall.sh > [lowen at localhost ~]$ du -h --max-depth=1 /opt/Mixbus-3.2.22 > 104M /opt/Mixbus-...

New C7 kernel ABI and kmods
All, This is just a heads-up that the new C7 update kernel breaks ABI compatibility, at least as far as using the ELrepo nVidia drivers is concerned. I have posted more details to the ELrepo list; but since many folks use the Elrepo kmods I thought a heads-up would be appropriate. If you use the ELrepo nvidia kmod you will either need to hold off on the kernel update or uninstall the nvidia

libgme drive-by exploit.
An interesting exploit: https://scarybeastsecurity.blogspot.com/2016/12/redux-compromising-linux-using-snes.html While this is tailored to Fedora 25 (with Chrome) and Ubuntu 16.04, in checking my CentOS 7 system I find that it is not vulnerable simply because it doesn't have the libgme used by gstreamer-plugins-bad to make it work. However, gstreamer-plugins-bad-free is indeed installed,

Checksums for git repo content?
Hi all, Since the vault for 7.3.1611 has been cleared out last sunday (20170207) - why is that? - I'm using git to download a "SRPM", or more accurately, its contents. However, using git has one major drawback: It is missing checksums for the files. Are there any plans to provide checksums for the files in git so I can be sure that what I download is actually not tampered with?

Openshot 2.x (beta) on C7??
I'm interested in trying out the new OpenShot beta (2.06) on CentOS 7. Openshot requires Python3. so I look at available packages where I find a bunchof python3 packages as well as python34 packages. I'm assuming that python34 is version 3.4 of python, while python3 is some other 3.x version. Can anyone here explain to me what are the differences, any compatibility across these

where did SCL go?
I believe it's because I'm using the 32 bit flavor of centos. Of course I found a doc stating that right after I sent the email.
