similar to: updating base kernel when plus kernel installed

I am trying to get off the plus kernel. Hasn't helped yet, and my MadWifi does not work with it. So I used YUMEX to remove all of the plus kernel cruft that I could see. I rebooted. ONly the standard kernel was listed in the boot menu (good sign). Start up Yumex, and it is showing that the plus kernel needs updating. Nothing on the regular kernel. Just yum update behaves the same.

A little progress on Centos 6(.3), but.... Where is yumex? I have grown to depend on it...

Kudzu is not recognizing my Atheros card. Actually I was having this problem with the plus kernel and I fell back to 2.6.9-34.0.2 Running on ethernet until I can figure out what to update.

You would think installing via yum would handle dependencies, but perhaps fonts are not managed like dependencies..... Anyway, I installed tightvnc to test out its IPv6 support. Installed ok (after I erased regular vnc). But when I tried to start it, I got 5 warnings about: Font directory '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc' not found - ignoring (then the same message for Speedo, Type1,

I spent quite a bit of time setting up what I wanted to update and install via yumex. I left my system for a few minutes to attend to another computer. A helpful family member logged me off without checking. So can I recapture what I had queued? I cannot find anything that looks like a yumex queue file. yum.log does not have any updates from today.... :(

I have 2.8.0 from the base repro. I am running yumex with the Plus, DAG, kbsingh, and jpackage repros. None of which offer a newer version of Gnome. I am talking about a 'deficiency' I am having with gnome, and one responder that does not have these problems is on 2.14.2

I have already 6 Centos machines here and it is getting strange having to pull down updates to each system. Seems like I should set up one system to pull updates and then all other systems to point to it. How? Plus then I would want to add to this repository. Say that a number of my systems use tomcat which is only available via rpm. I would like to be able to add it to my repository, and

could someone please point me in the right direction for creating a local repository for centos updates. Scenario: I have one centos server connected to the internet, it provides ntpd, httpd, and other services to both internal and external clients (only httpd is serving external clients). the clients are connected to the first centos server and it functions as a NAT router for internet

Here's the checklist I have so far: 1 - /home partition - separate drive 2 - Files copied to the second drive: /etc/X11/xorg.conf rpm for RPM forge /etc/yum - entire folder /etc/yum/repos.d - entire folder /etc/yum.conf /etc/yumex.conf /etc/yumex.profiles.conf 3 - Files installed via Yum(ex) - Hmmm, need to figure this one out. Any pointers? -- --- David Woyciesjes

Well I just tried up2date -u Testing package set / solving RPM inter-dependencies... Downloading headers to solve dependencies... ####################################### Downloading headers to solve dependencies... There was a package dependency problem. The message was: Unresolvable chain of dependencies: libibverbs 1.0.3-1 requires kernel-ib libmthca 1.0.2-1

Can anyone tell me when the udisks, python-pexpect, and pyxdg packages in EPEL will be updated so I can install yumex under CentOS 7? Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package yumex.noarch 0:3.0.15-1.el7 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: udisks for package: yumex-3.0.15-1.el7.noarch --> Processing

When, after starting the install, you get a list of places for the distribution, listing things like: CDrom, NFS, FTP, HTTP, Local hard drive What is expected on the HTTP url? The ISO images? Help please, as the system I am installing on, boots off of CDrom, but then the CDrom seems to be so old (Toshiba NW24XCD), that there is no Linux driver for it in the base install. And I cannot

This is a new Centos 5.1 install on a HP nc2400 (that use to run XP). Completely clean install; blew away the XP partitions... After applying all the updates, and configuring for the rpmforge repo, I used yumex to install dkms and the dkms-ipw3945, ipw3945-firmware, and ipw3945d rpms. lsmod|grep ipw shows: ipw3945 180391 1 ieeee80211 33417 1 ipw3945 and dmesg)grep

yum grouplist is almost ok for learning what groups are available.Though it does not distinguish between base/manditory and added in the installed list. But yum list is not really helpful. I would like to see something of what rpms are within what group. then what rpms are not in any group. And which groups and stand-a-lone rpms are base. maybe it can be teased out of comp.xml...

Well, I just did my 2nd install. (Now doing the updates via yumex and stepping into the updates instead of risking doing it all at once.) I selected every bind related package, and then ran the BIND configuration GUI in System>Adminstration>Server Settings. Things seem to work. So I uninstalled and reinstalled on my new DNS server and it looks like I can proceed on the install.

In case anybody is interested, I found a version of Yumex that will work with CentOS 4.2. It is from another RHEL clone, Scientific Linux. This is the URL. ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/42/i386/SL/RPMS/yumex-0.42-9.0.SL.noarch.rpm Cheers....Paul

I have avi files in xVid format from my Camera, and I want to create a Video CD that can be viewed on any CD player. I have searched through the various repos (including rpmforage and kbsingh) and did not find anything that would burn. I have a number of programs that have no trouble displaying these files. Including xzine, Avidemux, and VideoLAN-Client). I unfortunately have to make these

Hi, i am happy user of Centos 5.1 . i have installed Zimbra , Zenoss and webmin for testing purposes. Everything was going fine until yesterday when ever i want to go to yumex Gui it does not open, same with add and remove software when i click it , it does not open. also when i go to "services" gui same is happening. Yesterday i updated the system and rebooted still the problem

I performed the update yesterday that included installing kernel 2.6.9-42.0.2.EL and replacing ethereal with wireshark. First, the trivial... Wireshark would not run from the KDE menu without editing the menu to change the command from "wireshark" to "kdesu wireshark" because dumpcap is at usr/sbin/dumpcap instead of /usr/bin/dumpcap . Making the change causes wireshark to
