Is there any easy way to edit the gnome menu under CentOS 4? The same versions of gnome under different distros allow easy (to different degrees) of menu editing.

Greetings, I'm using centos3 to study for rhce, centos came highly recommended in Michael Jang's rhce study guide. I've been having trouble isntalling via nfs, an early exercise in the book, and googling around leads me to think it might be an anaconda bug. I tried following the anaconda link on the "upgrading from 3.1" page but it's actually a duplicate of the

Any big heads up folks can offer as I set off to try building me a 2.6.9 kernel from a kernel.org tarball? -- Robert Thomas ("beau") Hayes Link Open your heart, pray for peace, preach healing (c)2004ISR http://www.semanticrestructuring.com/

I'm a fairly experienced RH and Fedora user and admin looking to try CentOS for the first time. I have lots of experience with Dell servers and I'd like to stick with them. Although I'm sure it's not always strictly enforced, Dell claims that it won't provide warranty hardware support on servers installed with an un-Dell-supported OS (basically, anything other Windows, RH, and

I've just got bunch of RHEL4 erratas (looks like U2 is out). Looking at the kernel errata (kernel-2.6.9-22.EL), one of the things in list of new features is "Intel dual core support". What does this exactly means? Does it mean if I have dual core pentium processor and use older kernel that it will use only one core, and I need newer kernel to use both cores? Or is it only

Greetings everyone, I've got a problem with my fileserver running CentOS 3.1. The kernel seems to crash about once a day (inevitably when I'm not present), forcing me to reboot. This behavior started after I applied the new kernel patch (2.4.21-15.0.3.EL.c0). I've left it on 2.4.21-15.0.2 for a little bit to see if it will crash tonight/tomorrow. As this may be a hardware

Hey folks, okay, here's the situation - I have a Centos 4.2 system with cups printing installed printing via postcript (with appropriate PPD file) to a HP LaserJet 1320N printer (via jetdirect socket 9100). Everything seems to work right - except for an unusual 'font'??? problem. Many letters seem to be just slightly garbled. At first I thought this was a mechanical problem at

X server, that is (as opposed to my ex-spouse...) Anyway, I was loving life with my rebuilt 2.4.21-9.0.1.EL.c0custom041130a kernel, and then ran "yum update", which gave me a grub line for 2.4.21-20.0.1EL, but the 21-20 not only won't work with the old X settings, I can't get it to set up X at all. I tried running "yum update" from a console on this kernel, but yum

Howdy, Was wondering if anyone on the list has successfully created a kickstart cd. I get the thing burnt, looks good, I can browse all the files, but when I actually boot from it I can't get it to admit the ks.cfg exists. I *have* been successful with kickstart over http; just can't seem to make it happen from the cd. Pointers appreciated, I've been mostly looking at the

Hi H. Peter Anvin, I wanted to thank you for sharing information about PXE, I have used this a lot and I wanted to share something that may be important for you and your readers. I have many different Dell model, they all worked well with PXE booting however not for E5510. I noticed that using "LocalBoot -1 or 0" doesn't work well. What I did use for Latitude E5510 (Bios A06)

I keep a local copy of the yum repository using rsync every night. Commands like "yum update" still work, but lately I've been getting the following error: # yum grouplist Setting up Group Process Setting up repositories Error: Caching enabled and local cache: //var/cache/yum/base/ yumgroups.xml does not match checksum My nightly rsync cron job doesn't update

I work for a small company, and we're running CentOS on our servers. We are looking to possibly move our most critical servers to RHEL. We currently use apt to deploy software upgrades to our servers. I have a question about RHEL subscriptions that they don't seem to be able to answer for me. If you have an RHEL subscription, do you have access to manually download the RPMs? We
