Hi ,all : Today I run the "yum update" command on my laptop, which is CentOS 5.4 i386. Then the screen displays the following message : root at kuku ~ > yum update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * addons: mirror.centos.net.cn * base: mirror.centos.net.cn * epel: mirrors.sohu.com * extras: mirror.centos.net.cn * rpmforge:

I got the DKMS-system working and now have the Nvidia-drivers v173.08 installed (using rpmforge as suggested previously). Unfortunately this particular driver version gives me screen artifacts so as to make the screen more or less unreadable. Nvidia's proprietary drivers are now up to v180.44 and this version is fine with my test system. I really like the DKMS-system, as it enables me

I installed Centos on some machines that need long term support. I'm running up against some simple user convenience issues. How to play MP3? I've been really puzzled today that the addon rpm sites like livna, rpmforge, rpmfusion, epel, don't seem to have something like amarok-mp3 or xine-lib-mp3. What am I missing? It can be done in Ubuntu, Debian, and Fedora Linux. In the

I have a CentOS 5.3 Desktop and use Evolution to read mailing lists . When i move from one read letter to another(either deleting or clicking next the Message pane flickers. How can i stop this because it is hard on my eyes when i have a few emails to read? Jeff

Hi all, I'm looking for a cloning solution for our Windows/Linux/*nix computer park and ran into Clonezilla. Apparantely the DRBL and other documentation mentions CentOS as a suitable base for it. Does anybody on this list use this solution and can say something about it in the running-Clonezilla-with-CentOS-context, be it recommendations, gotchas', warnings or whatever? Thanks. -- BW,

What should have been a routine upgrade to ZFS 0.6.4.1-1.el6.x86_64 somehow failed, and now I've lost access to a 2T raidz2 array. I've tried removing all zfs and related packages (spl*), then starting fresh. For reasons that have have nothing to do with this problem (I don't think), I'm still booted to kernel 2.6.32-431.29.2.el6.x86_64, and there are no other kernels installed.

Hi, I have a wireless network but no wired network. I need to access the net for the necessary installation of the wireless drivers in CentOS 5.1. Could anyone let me know how i can go about it!!

Note, first of all I haven't actually updated, I'm just running "yum update" to see what conflicts, if any, I get so I can be prepared when the final 7.7 release happens. I've traditionally used the nvidia packages from elrepo, but recently enabled rpmfusion (back when I started using 7.x, I disabled rpmfusion because it took them a looooong time to get a EL7 repository up).

Hi all, I've been thinking about creating a local repo for our to-be CentOS-park (we're currently in the process of migrating from RHEL3 to CentOS5). As we need to control all updates being applied (think WUS, Windows Update Server) because of special software being run on servers and clients, we must check first that our molecular modeling software doesn't bite the grass should eg

Hi all, I'm looking for a web photo gallery for my personal web server at home. Till now I've done the galleries manually from Adobe Photoshop Elements, but I feel that is a dead end, kinda', besides the fact that the galleries created are rather static. I'd like an easier way to do this, eg uploading images in folders directly to the gallery and it will take care of what needs to

Hi all, I'd like to deploy a solution with dual-booting systems where CentOS 5.3 is already installed and WinXP will be installed to a separate disk. I found http://apcmag.com/how_to_dual_boot_linux_and_windows_xp_linux_installed_first.htm?page=1 and it seems straight forward enough, although the description is for Ubuntu. The problem as I see it, is that the how-to differs from how

Tonight, I tried to roll out fuse on my CentOS 4 production system. (in order to use GlusterFS) I have two identical servers, and one took, the other didn't. How simple could this be? # yum install yum-plugin-priorities # yum install rpmforge-release # yum install fuse dkms-fuse both of these seem to work. Yet I run [root at kepler drivers]# modprobe fuse FATAL: Module fuse not

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bonjour, I have two monitors and an nvidia graphic card. I uses the nvidia proprietary driver from rpmfusion and have configured the system to use the twinview option. I need to load an icc profile for each screen (they are not exactly the same) and this seems to be impossible under this configuration.... Am I right? So I changed my config:
