Alternitives to Firefox...
OK, I recently ugraded to the current ESR release of Firefox for CentOS 6. And I am having problems with the user interface (basically it has become hard [for me] to use). What alternitives are there? (Chrome and Chromium are not possible with CentOS, and Chrome and Chromium are actually worse). -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 Deepwoods Software -- Custom Software

pdfmerge and ghostscript-8.70-6.el5_7.6.x86_64
Everyone, It looks like pdfmerge is broken after the recent upgrade of gs to ghostscript-8.70-6.el5_7.6.x86_64. Has anyone else had this problem. I have just started trying to debug it. If any of you already have solutions please let me know. Thanks, Greg Ennis

New monitor weirdnesses (CentOS 5.11)
I just got a new monitor for my desktop system (the old one died after *many* years of service). The new monitor is a high res 16:9 monitor, but the VESA video driver insists on using 1024x768 (which was the resolution of the *old* monitor). It does seem to detect higher, 16:9 resolutions but it is not using them. I *think* I need to set some low-level video mode thing, but it has been a

Failed to get to installer for CentOS 7 VM under CentOS 6...
I just tried to create a CentOS 7 VM on a CentOS 6 host, but it crashes to the dracut prompt. I am using the PXEBoot installer. I *think* it is unhappy with the (virtual) graphics controller, but I am not sure.

Is there some way to append to a pdf after its device has been closed?
Hello all, My question has to do with writing to pdf/ps files. Currently, my R program requires 100+ pdf devices to be open, which is over the limit of 64 devices that can be open at the same time, causing R to throw an exception. My problem could be solved if I could append to a pdf file after its initial device has been closed, but so far I haven't been able to figure out a way to do that.

upgrading 32-bit installation to 64-bit
Hi! I've got a 32-bit Centos installed on an AMD Phenom II X2 processor and I'm interested ni making it 64 bit instead. But I'd sure like to avoid having to go back thru the whole installation again... in part because I've got sotware RAID set up and I'm assuming that I can't do a fresh install into it without having to re-configure the whole thing. So, is it possible

CentOS with Kernel 2.6.32 built-in
I have a Asus laptop, from the new generation, and my network driver is present in the kernel since version 2.6.32(Jmicron). Is there any CentOS with this kernel? I tried to compile myself, but I failed. Is a bit harder than I thought. Is there any testing version of CentOS or some backports?

How can I batch print html pages
I thought this was easy, but it turns out to be not so obvious. My problem: I have a database with hour registration. I need to print out about hundreds of pages and have them signed by employees. Of course I want to do this automatically. Up to now I have a collection of html pages (got them using wget). So the final thing I want is to print them all out in one go. How to do that? I search

"Untrusted application launcher (desktop launchers)"
I am having this problem on Ubuntu 18.04 -- I manage a batch of desktop machines with some convience desktop launchers, which gnome3 insists are "untrusted". With some general websearching reveals that this is a *GNome3* so-called "security" issue (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/commit/1630f5348).

Hi all, I'm trying to rebuild a pretty old server. For this, I need a copy of the CentOS 4.3 i386 DVD ISO, ideally. The torrent on the CentOS vault is not working... Does anyone have a copy of: CentOS-4.3-i386-binDVD.iso (md5sum: ca5ccf17951f4b4ef0460c7847e0f2ac) Kicking around? I'd be much obliged if I could get a copy. :) -- Digimer E-Mail: digimer at

What's The Odds?
What's the odds of retaining the data in a software raid-1 array when falling back to CentOS 5.8 x86_64 from CentOS 6.3 x86_64? The array is made up of 2 - 1.5 TB hard disks. The original array was defined under CentOS 5.3 x86_64, then CentOS 6.1 x86_64 was installed and over time upgraded to CentOS 6.3. I need to back-level to test some software not certified for CentOS/RHEL 6.

PDF too large, PNG bad quality
I wish to save a scatter plot comprising approx. 2 million points in order to include it in a LaTeX document. Using 'pdf(...)' produces a file of size about 20 MB, which is useless. Using 'cairo_pdf(...)' produces a smaller file, around 3 MB. This is still too large. Not only that the document will be too large, but also PDF viewers choke on this. Moreover, Cairo has problems

whats the package that allows copy and paste between windows
What is the package that allows copy and paste between windows? I think I need to yum reinstall it. after the 5.6 update I get the copy button when I right click - (for example in thunderbird) put when I then goto a console window and try to right click and paste the paste is grey-ed or ghosted. Is there a package that controls the clip board or something? Thanks Jerry
