...al. This should give me some idea of when wifi stopped working. When the wifi stopped working, the pings stopped, in the update window the cleanup after the install was taking place and had stopped at cleanup of wpa-supplicant. Don't know what significance of that is. Tony -- Linux nogs.tonyshome.ie 2.6.32-573.22.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Mar 23 03:35:39 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

...Anybody got any experience of running CentOS on the newer Dell Latitudes E5000 or E7000. These are not certified according to Redhats' Hardware Guide. Alternatively Precision Workstations would do. These can be supplied with Ubuntu installed so they run Linux.

Hello everyone, I had a CentOS 6.5 CD for a clean install, and I did a desktop install. Then I did a yum update to bring it up to 6.7. So far, so good. I run a bunch of scientific programs that use C++ compilers and libraries. But, the programs were failing becaause in /usr/lib, the libraries simply weren't there. The directory was fairly sparsely populated with about 10 directories of

With CentOS 7.2 a laptop wireless card is recognized in dmesg, but nonfunctional. Toggling the hardware wifi switch causes the Bluetooth icon to appear and disappear. The network configuration window shows the Wireless tab greyed out. Rebooting with the bluetooth enabled does not help. It appears the appropriate driver is iwlwifi, which is what works in Fedora and appears to be available and

Hi John, Thank you, elrepo sounds good to know about -- http://elrepo.org/tiki/About says is an extra repository for hardware support. Still not clear how to troubleshoot the problem so I know what to install from elrepo. I know that a spec file is involved in creating an RPM file; do you mean that you make your own kernel RPM?
