Hi, I'm the founder and still very active developer of Puppy Linux, and a variant named Quirky. Puppy is a cut-down distro, typically 100MB live-CD. We have always used the Adobe Flash player, though I have stayed with the Flash 9 player (9.0.48.0) due to its smaller size. Puppy also has ffmpeg, xine-lib and gxine. Recently I have been experimenting with Swfdec and Swfdec-mozilla. I started

Just a quick correction and apologies, the actual issue is that http will not work, https will so I dont think this is a bug as such I think this is by design likely for security. Looking at the man page for qemu-kvm it states http will work with examples given however only https works, my best guess from looking at the spec file from the srpm is that it has only been enabled in the centos

Is there a recommended/preferred version of Linux for using with R? Is there one version of Linux that R-users prefer, and/or that works "better" with R? I am working with "large" datasets, and hope to take advantage of as much RAM as reasonable (8-32gb?).

Hi Daniel, I have noticed that it will fail exactly as you said if <cdrom> is first in the boot order, if <hd> is first in the boot order the XML validates and it starts as usual. first in log except below is with cdrom set to first in boot order, second is with hd set first. 2018-08-09 11:39:28.625+0000: starting up libvirt version: 3.9.0, package: 14.el7_5.6 (CentOS BuildSystem

Hi; I'm new to the CentOS list and I only have experience with CentOS 4.3/4.4 on desktops. I just installed CentOS 4.4 on a very old Dell Inspiron 3500 laptop. I choose the desktop option and then deleted the kde and gnome packages because I have only 192mb RAM and 4gb disk (total). I'd like suggestions on how to maximize the effective usage of the laptop with CentOS 4.4...as a

AFAIK jessie supports i586, so if Pentium is old enough for you you're good to go for likely at least two more years. After that I guess I'd be using old unsupported Debians for the ancient ones. I don't have this old hw on the

I have a really nice, old Libretto 110. Only 64Mb memory. I want to put Linux on it and have a network monitoring system and a traveling NAS. But all of the NASs have seemed to have grown beyond their original 64Mb size (FreeNAS now needs 128Mb). Only thing I have found is: http://www.linux-watch.com/news/NS8289526009.html Talking about Unbutu 6.0 and the 'Server' install that can

Hi! and a warm hello to the CentOS team. I have a work for which I need some solution from you. Actually we have some thin clients where we want to put a light weight Linux distro for users. As of now I have tested with Fedora and Ubuntu distros but the issue I am finding is they are not able to fit in my requirement of flash based hard disk consumption (~500 MB). although a distro named TinyME

I want to have a column in my model that needs to store variable information in a structured manner.

Hi All, I am trying to install extlinux on a fresh system. Here are my steps : ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ A) Create an ext2 partition.

I checked the Linux irc channel which I guess is now abandoned. If anyone

Hi, I have just joined the list. I am the original creator of Puppy Linux, now letting other guys take the reins, and I am working on a fork of Puppy called Quirky Linux, where I try various experimental ideas. Up until now, in Puppy and all offshoots, we have used syslinux 4.05 or older. Over the last few days I have been testing 6.03 (using the binary DEBs from Ubuntu 14.10 Utopic Unicorn),
