similar to: lost CentOS repositories from yum

My apologies for posting an already solved problem, but dont know if its my ignorance that is not getting me to my desired results.....trying to mount an external usb hard drive(ntfs) in my system. In my CentOS box, I tried to install dkms, dkms-fuse, fuse and fuse-ntfs-3g as follows(including what happened) [root at Production mnt]# yum install dkms dkms-fuse fuse fuse-ntfs-3g Setting up

Have followed all instructions, googled and read Johnny's November post, went to Duke (not physically, web-spherically, although it's only 45 minutes away),... and still can't see how I have protectbase operational. Installed: [root at wlmlfs08 ~]# yum -C --disablerepo=rpmforge list|grep yum centos-yumconf.noarch 4-4.5 installed yum.noarch

Thanks for your help Sean, did all the steps you mentioned. One thing I don't understand, when partitions are created, why does Linux number it awkwardly? For example, I created 1 Primary partition of 10% disk, then created 1 Extended partition of 90% disk. Inside that extended partition, I created 3 logical partitions 33% each. It went numbering sdb1, sdb5, sdb6 and sdb7. Where's the hell

I did yum update kernel-smp and rebooted the machine, and blops.....the drive opened! Thanks for your help!

I've just installed v6.3 as a desktop (from Centos-6.3-i386-LiveCD.iso) and to get the hang of the Centos approach and then hope to move on to a server. I've been using linux *buntu for 5 years. Hope i don't sound like a nit but i've got a little confused with the repos. Hoping someone would be kind enough just to clarify. This installation is for stability whilst installing the

Here's the checklist I have so far: 1 - /home partition - separate drive 2 - Files copied to the second drive: /etc/X11/xorg.conf rpm for RPM forge /etc/yum - entire folder /etc/yum/repos.d - entire folder /etc/yum.conf /etc/yumex.conf /etc/yumex.profiles.conf 3 - Files installed via Yum(ex) - Hmmm, need to figure this one out. Any pointers? -- --- David Woyciesjes

I saw the link someone posted to SL (Scientific Linux) yumex rpm's. I grabbed the SRPMS, changed some references from SL to CentOS in the spec files and rebuilt the RPMS. I managed to get yumex up and running by manually configuring yumex.conf. What is the use of the yum-utils and the dozen or so utilities? Are there any docs? (Bearing in mind my hack may have damaged the SL installation)

Hi List, I have been getting the above errors for the last few months and extensive google foo has been less than conclusive - but indicates that the requesting flash player is somehow putting the wrong url content into the request. After I recently did a yum update on my wife's laptop she too started getting these errors. She has an old sony laptop running 5.8 and other than this error

greetings, each and every time i run yum or yumex, system time is advanced by 5 hours. this has gone on thru several updates, maybe even upgrades. centos = 6.6 current yum = 3.2.29 yumex = 3.0.5 for awhile, i did not mind resetting clock when i noticed it off. now, it is a pita because when i forget, emails and what ever else i am doing get wrong time stamps. i have searched for

I am trying to get off the plus kernel. Hasn't helped yet, and my MadWifi does not work with it. So I used YUMEX to remove all of the plus kernel cruft that I could see. I rebooted. ONly the standard kernel was listed in the boot menu (good sign). Start up Yumex, and it is showing that the plus kernel needs updating. Nothing on the regular kernel. Just yum update behaves the same.

The docs in http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/docs/ do not reflect yum of today ie the yum plugins. Where can updated yum docs be found? By browsing lists such as fedora-devel, centos one can see how the plugins have "stumbled in" but newbies/anyone wanting to pickup on the new features has nothing to read. Note there are yumex docs at the above location but my query relates to yum $

Can anyone tell me when the udisks, python-pexpect, and pyxdg packages in EPEL will be updated so I can install yumex under CentOS 7?

Hi: I have a mirror of dag repository (http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el4/en/i386/dag/) in my intranet which is used by other servers to install/update rpms. I installed on every remote server the rpmforge rpm, edit the /etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo to fit with my intranet mirror, but when I run yum, I get this error: #yum -c rpmforge.repo search nagios Warning, could not load sqlite, falling back to

Hi, there isn't any version of yumex in 5.1 extras directory. Perhaps it is time for version 2.0.3?

This is a new Centos 5.1 install on a HP nc2400 (that use to run XP). Completely clean install; blew away the XP partitions... After applying all the updates, and configuring for the rpmforge repo, I used yumex to install dkms and the dkms-ipw3945, ipw3945-firmware, and ipw3945d rpms. lsmod|grep ipw shows: ipw3945 180391 1 ieeee80211 33417 1 ipw3945 and dmesg)grep
