Has anyone else encountered a loop and failure to shutdown on CentOS4? This has occurred twice in the past month, but unfortunately I failed to write down the looping messages. The only relevant problems I found via Google reference raid controllers, and I have POI (plain ol' IDE). Doh! Obviously I wuill need to record the errors. My environment is run-level 5 with GDM, but I use IceWm

Has anyone else noticed that firefox is less stable after the recent security update?

As a parallel question to my thread about CentOS for commercial use, here's a question I've been wondering about. How many of you who have RHEL licenses and paid support licenses have ever needed actually to request support? And if you did was the support any bit more timely or accurate than community support for CentOS or other distros? -- Collins When I saw the Iraqi people

while in firefox if i use arrow keys in text fields, it acts very oddly. starting at the beginning of the line it works fine for a few characters and then jumps to the end of the line. backarrow jumps backwards from the end of line to within a few chars of the beginning. anyone else seeing this?

Please excuse my ignorance, since I have not used any RedHat (enterprise or otherwise) until Fedora FC3 (a few weeks) and now CentOS4 (permanently). I keep finding references to Un (I believe it's up to U5 now) in references to bugfixes, etc for RHEL. I presume (?) these are dot releases after the initial release? Is there anything equivalent for CentOS, or is this RedHat only behavior? TIA,

I'm a home user of CentOS (a desktop and a laptop) because I like the quality of the product and I love the cost. I'm a great believer in FOSS. That being said, I know that some of you use CentOS for production servers and (perhaps?) desktops as well. I've read at leat one comment like "I have 20 CentOS servers." My employer is a firm believer in RHEL - license costs are

CentOS is a really great product, and the package supporters do a bang up job, but the one deficiency I've found is the fact that one can never rely on being able to get updates at any particular time. Whether it's CentOS proper or the Dag additions, something is broke most every time I want to apply updates. I know this is whin[ge]ing, and I certainly don't have a solution to offer.

I''ve just started using CentOS as an alternative OS for some servers for a project. At the time 3.4 was the release of choice. I''m curious how long the CentOS project will release fixes and patched rpms for 3.4 before it would be necessary to migrate these machines to 4.x. I rather know in advance so I can plan accordingly and slowly migrate these over time. I do realize that 4.x

Listers, I encountered a problem with samba (2.2.7a) when I was setting CUPS (1.1.14) up.

Hi I've recently upgraded to 3.0.2 from 2.2.8 on Redhat 9. We have 2 Linux servers and a number of windows XP machines. The primary domain controller has a printer which is shared and to which all the computers have access. Since upgrading, the other Linux server cannot print to shared printers on the primary linux controller or on windows machines and cannot install new shared printers from

I've just put up CentOS4 on my HP ze4630us laptop, and the installation produced only two problems of note, both related to X operations. 1. The installer refused to allow 1024x768 resoultion for the screen. After install, manually setting the resolution in xorg.conf was no problem. 2. Erratic touchpad operation. This unit has a synaptic touchpad. I've also noted similar problems on my

Just idle curiosity. I've always been fond of the simple hddtemp utility. I tried 'yum install hddtemp' (I have dag in my repos), but it was not found. Google found it on '/pub/dag/dries/packages...'. So I downloaded it, installed (Centos4), and it works just fine. Just wondering why it's not in the dag el4 repo? -- Collins When I saw the Iraqi people voting

Just curious. I've noticed with the 1.0.3 release (and almost every recent dot release) Firefox becomes unstable until you preserve your bookmarks and blow away the .mozilla/firefox directory. Has anyone heard whether the mozilla developers ever intend to fix this behavior? -- Collins When I saw the Iraqi people voting three weeks ago, 8 million of them, it was the start of

Just a minor irritation. 1. When I shutdown from the GDM menu, most of the time the screen goes black and none of the "stopping..." messages are visible until just about the time the mounted filesystems are shutdown, about three lines before acpi poweroff. 2. Always when I shutdown from my desktop manager (IceWm in my case), I get all the messages immediately. Once in a blue moon, this
