Why are all repos < 5.6 listed?
Greetings all.
I just enabled all repos on my system, to enable me to find
a particular package. This is the first time I have noticed
all the Centos repos < 5.6 being listed.
Is this a new feature, to include all repos pre 5.6 now?
Here's the output of the aforementioned yum command - sorry
it's a little bit long:
[root at karsites ~]# yum --enablerepo '*' --disablerepo

(Global/Any) setting for "show hidden files?" - SOLVED

Never mind - apparently if you right-click in the file list and select
"show hidden files", it sticks system-wide.

Can't print a pdf?
I just had a strange occurrence. I was printing out some PDFs and I
pulled one down off the web (my wireless bill) and tried to print page
1. My browser properly fired up AR9, but nothing printed. I tried
agian, still nothing. I saved the file, opened it with the Document
Viewer and it can't print the file either. I tried opening it with
GIMP, and it gets this error:

Workaround for (EL6.4) rdesktop-1.6.0-10 Woe
rdesktop has been spewing error messages since the update to CentOS 6.4.
Aside from the continuous stream of errors in the terminal window from
which it was launched, there are a number of usability issues in the
remote session. The pointer does not change shape when moving over
various window components such as column separators, window borders,
etc. The background doesn't refresh within

Gnome 2.x window placement
When starting a program from the commandline in C5, is there any way to
specify where on the screen the resulting window will be put?
I have a nuisance of a problem: Running rdesktop with the -D option
(which hides window decorations, making the rdesktop window appear
borderless), one cannot (as far as I can figure out) drag the window:
there are no borders to grab, and alt-drag doesn't work

Understanding iptables
In following up on the rsh "problem" I was having earlier, I decided
to try out the suggestion Felipe sent about using
system-config-securitylevel-tui to open up ports 513 and 514, but that
doesn't seem to do the job, either.

Can't print PDFs or PSs in CentOS 5.0
For some reason, when I try to print any graphic PDF (or a PS file made
from said graphic), it kills my Minolta 1100 laser printer, and I have
to cancel the job, disable the printer and turn the printer off and on
as many times as it takes to clear its buffer of the trash.
I'm running CentOS 5.0 and have tried Adobe Acrobat Reader 7.0 for
Linux; I have also tried printing the pdf to a file

Missing data diagnostics and apology
Greetings again,
Seems I've touched a nerve with my previous post and after a few kind folks alerted me to a better distribution method I chose to put the code here:

Any tips, criticisms, or additions are welcomed. Thanks for your patience.

Firewall for virtual machines
I realize I'm not getting a lot of questions answered here lately, and
I'm going to presume that this is for legitimate reasons (i.e., people
don't know or are too busy to think about it), not because they seem
stupid (if they do, please tell me, on the list or privately).
I run Windows as a VMWare guest on top of my CentOS host, and I
generally have not used a firewall on the guest.

USB printer goes into disconnected state when low-power mode enabled
I've mentioned this before, here, but with a laser printer connected via
the lp0 port.
I have a new laser printer, a Brother HL2140, that normally works just
fine when installed using the CUPS interface per OpenPrinting's
instructions (with one minor modification I had to add because the base
driver without the CUPS installation did not work.

Trouble (?) reformatting flash drive to include former U3 partition
Semi-OT?
I just got a new SanDisk 8GB flash drive, and, as usual, it came with
the U3 software (for Windoze) on a "CD" partition and considerably
less than 8GB on the disk partition. I put it into my WinXP portable
and told U3 to delete itself, but I still can't get at the old U3 part
of the drive. I've tried WinXP's format command, disk management and
CentOS's fdisk,

Hardware serial number access from (a) command(s)
Over the weekend, I had to make a technical support call on one of my
DVD burners, and at one point the recorded message mentioned I should
have my serial number handy. I thought there was a way to read that
from at least one piece of software on the system, but I couldn't
remember one and man -k on a number of subjects was unrevealing.
Can someone enlighten me (us)?
Thanks.

Video on (video-capable digital) still camera not accessible
I'm looking for any intelligent commentary on this - it may be a
little off topic, but I'm wondering if anyone knows about this. This
isn't short, so bear with me.
Yesterday, I tried to download a video off of one of my digital still
cameras that also takes videos (Canon Powershot SX10 iS) on my CentOS
x86_64 5.3 system. When I plugged the camera into a USB port and
turned it on, it
