I had a corrupted installation of OpenOffice.org 3.1. When I used "yum remove openoffice.org-core" the response was "package openoffice.org-core available but not installed", but then, when I used "yum install openoffice.org-core there was a long list of Transaction Check Errors. I then removed openoffice.org3.1-redhat-menus-noarch which was in the errors. Here's the

I downloaded the .rpm file from Google and am trying to install Picasa for Linux on CentOS 5. I get the below error. Is this because I'm using SELinux or because of something else? I found a small Picasa folder in /opt (24 items, 143.7 KB) but it seems to end there. Picasa is one of the programs my wife uses on Windows. TIA! [root at dell2400 lanny]# rpm -Uvh picasa-2.2.2820-5.i386.rpm

I am running SELinux in Permissive mode. GNOME and KDE are installed. Following the upgrade from CentOS 5.2 to 5.3 (32 bit) I am getting SELinux messages. Possibly of interest to someone here or upstream? (Since I'm using Permissive mode, this is not a problem for me). If these are known issues, please disregard. Messages follow: (1) SELinux is preventing nm-system-setti (system_dbusd_t)

I just finished updating my Desktop, from CentOS 5.2 to 5.3 (32 bit). There were a lot of error messages (from sbin/ldconfig ?) about 2 files, in usr/lib/lib ending in .so "is not an ELF file - It has the wrong magic bytes at the start." There were also a lot of messages I believe have to do with SELinux. I'd read the Release Notes and thought I was OK, since this box is dual boot

Yesterday, in the afternoon, I did "yum update" on my Desktop. Everything seemed AOK. After power down last night, when I powered on this morning, it began to boot the new Kernel and then seemed to die. Instead of getting the progress of the boot on the CRT, the screen was blank and nothing happening. I am now running off the previous Kernel on this box. Is there a fix for this, so I can
