Hi all. I have a simple question: CentOS relies mostly on "yum" to keep systems up to date, although I understand that like on RHEL, "up2date" is also available. On my system I've run both KDE and GNOME as Graphical Desktops under X (though I presently run GNOME), and I've noticed that there is an applet called "CentOS Network Alert Icon" (from the

Dear Sirs. It seems to me a never ending story. We run a box with a TYAN Thunder 2500 Dual SMP mainboard, 2GB ECC Tyan certified memory, AMI Enterprise 1600 RAID adapter and additional Intel 1000/Pro server type (64 bit) GBit LAN NIC. With FreeBSD 4.8 this was stable, but to achive this state was really hard! It is a story similar to that what happend when we changed towards FreeBSD

Is it possible to install el3 packages on CentOS 4? I'm wondering because there are some packages on dag (for example ac3dec) that are built for el3 and not for el4. Is it better to rebuild the source rpm? Thanks. Sincerely Jose Alburquerque

Hi. I mostly use my system as a super-user and so I can mostly do everything without worrying too much about permissions. Not too long ago I created a "general" user account which is automatically logged in after a few seconds for others to have (limited) access to the system. Mostly everything works (ie. CD/DVD writing, sound, floppy access, etc.) But when it comes to printing, only

Hi. I hate to ask because I'm not sure if this is one of those questions that don't "deserve an answer" but here goes: My friend gave me a Kodak EZ-200 Webcam (USB) recently and I'm trying to configure it for use under CentOS 4.3. I did a little research on the web and found that the Kodak EZ200 is supported using gphoto2

Hi all. Can anyone help me with scheduling tasks? I'm running Centos4.2 (updated via yum starting from 4.0).

I read the crontab syntax man page (man 5 crontab) and I made an entry as a normal user (using crontab -e) that looks like the following: 30 0 9 1 1 /bin/ls -F /home/jose >

Hi. I'm fairly new with CentOS but have been using version 4.2 with great satisfaction (Thank you!). I've been using repos such as Dag and Dries successfully to keep my packages up to date. (I've seen many posts which allow me to believe that these repos won't change CentOS compatibility to RHEL4 or to migrate it another distro for that matter!) My question applies to the

Hello, I tried to install Yamaha cdrw at FreeBSD 5.1. At 4.8 stable all was Ok. Now I have in kernel configuration sym device. But cdrecord shows message "No such file or directory.

I've searched thru the archives here, and am not seem much related to 64 bit builds (at least according to subject lines), so apologizes if somebody already addressed this issue and I didn't see it. I am running Slamd64 on a Xeon 2.8 with EM64T. I am using kernel 2.6.12.2, which is configured for SMP. I cannot build zaptel 1.0.9, or CVS HEAD that I just downloaded today

Really quickly: Would anyone know how I might add a crontab entry via a script (bash)? I'm attempting to write one to schedule commands at certain times. Is this possible? Thanks. -Jose
