similar to: Wine on Centos 5.2 - "X Development Files"

1. There are updates to CentOS-4Beta for the i386 and x86_64 arches. The following RPMS have been changed: a. createrepo-0.4.2-1.noarch.rpm - This is an update from the upstream maintainer. b. yum-2.1.13-1.c4.noarch.rpm - This is an update from the upstream maintainer. c. firefox-1.0-6.centos4.3.i386.rpm - The original build did not strip the library files of unnecessary symbols, causing

Hi there, not really sure if this is a bug, but more so rather a missing file... I installed a fresh 5.1 copy very minimal - no desktop, etc. Now it came up later that I would need a desktop on this install. So I was going to just groupinstall in the Gnome Desktop. # yum groupinstall "GNOME Desktop Environment" Now while processing the dependencies, it fails out with a dependency for

I just did a fresh minimal install of centos 7 on new hardware.

Hi there -- i am just looking for clarification on the yum "group install" option.... How can you tell what are valid groups? IE I found the below example on google: yum groupinstall "MySQL Database" I have heard references to doing things like: yum groupinstall "Development Tools" But to the point - is there a list of valid groups for install? ----------

Gentlemen, I have a question regarding yum groupinstall vs just using yum install. I have been reading tutorials online (for example how to run a Centos LAMP). Most of the tutorials have examples to install httpd, mysql, etc using yum install httpd.... The reason for this e-mail is that I noticed in yum grouplist that there is an option to install Web Server, MySQL database server, etc.

Is there an 'after the fact' way to find what yum groups are installed, including ones that were added with 'yum groupinstall' instead of the initial anaconda install? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com

Hi, Until last week, I could install a CentOS 7 based desktop using the following approach: 1. Install minimal system. 2. yum groupinstall "X Window System" 3. yum install gdm gnome-classic-session gnome-terminal liberation-fonts 4. Install applications as needed.

In reading "man yum" I did not see a way to find out what rpm's are installed with each group, or maybe I just did not

Hi, I've been playing with CentOS quite a bit lately (and I must say it's growing on me!! :) and I was now able to convince my boss that we could get a box and gradually start migrating our hosting from win2k3 to centos. So anyway, I've got a new box at the colo ready up and running - P4 3Ghz w/HT 2Ghz RAM 2x70Gb HDD, running Centos4.4 fully up-to-date. Now my two questions are;

hey guys, I just created a custom netboot cd, that launches and loads from a http source, but connects to a vnc listening viewer. All in all, not hard to do, but what is different with this one is that it skips the media check, has no prompts and allows you to start the install on a machine that has no keyboard/mouse/monitor. Was handy for me as when i have some boxes to load, I just
