OT: Dropbox - Fedora Core 9 RPM will work on CentOS 5.4?
Dropbox has an RPM for Fedora Core 9 (x86). I am running CentOS 5.4 on
my Desktop, which I believe is based on Fedora Core 6. Are the
libraries Fedora Core 9 uses substantially different than those CentOS
5.4 uses? If Dropbox had an SRPM available, I would Download that and
Rebuild, but I'm sure it is Proprietary and they won't release an SRPM
to me. TIA!

OT: Google Earth - How to uninstall, before installing newest version?
Desktop is CentOS 5.4 (32 bit). I have Google Earth version
4.2.205.5730 (13NOV2007 build date) installed. I have checkinstall
(spelling?) installed, but am not sure if that was installed before or
after Google Earth was installed. I have the Google Repository
installed, but apparently Google Earth cannot be updated via yum and
probably it was not installed via yum.

good small registrar?
Greetings,
What are some registrars that members of this list have had good experience
with? I was stepping through the godaddy checkout process, and being
opted-in to a dozen different upsell features just left a bad impression.
But I have no clue who else to go with.

OT: Package to truncate .mp3 file
I have a 2.9 MB MP3 file. Would like to use about the first 10%, to
embed sound on a web page. The Packages I have in Applications > Sound

Package I can get from a Yum Repository that will do that? Using

Local root vulnerability in udev
I just saw this thread in the OLM forum. Possibly of interest, since
they say it includes CentOS 5, if the update hasn't been released yet.
Always good to keep boxes updated, for security and stability
reasons.

OT: Photo Editor to reduce 272 photos to VGA at once
I returned from Bogot? and have a Folder with 272 photos that total
419.9 MB. I would like to email them to several people who were there
for the concerts I attended. I have Picasa, gThumb (not really an
Editor but I believe it can reduce the quality of photos) and The GIMP
installed. Is there a way I can have a photo editor reduce all of them
to VGA size, without doing that 272 times? The people

PDF Reader/Editor for CentOS 5.7 (32 bit)?
I had, in the past, a .pdf reader that also permitted me to fill in
some information, when I received a .pdf file.
I have KPDF installed, but that seems to only have Reader capability.
Trying to install xpdf, with yum, I get this dependency error from rpmforge:

sFTP (client) RPM for CentOS 5.3 (32 bit) and/or putty-tools
I installed gFTP but apparently it does not handle the sFTP protocol.
I also installed the FireFTP Add On for the Firefox browser, but when
I tried to connect to the server, it says that I need putty-tools. I
have the rpmforge and epel repositories configured but yum did not
find putty-tools. Is there an RPM for a client program for gFTP or
putty-tools? If so, in which repository? TIA!

Recycle Bin disappeared (GNOME, CentOS 5.5, 32 bit)
Probably this is due to operator error, The Recycle Bin in GNOME

Is there a command I can use, or another procedure, to get the Recycle

GNOME + Firefox - Mouse froze - what key combination to revive?
Earlier, I was using GNOME and Firefox and the Mouse died. I had to
kill the power, to get the box going again, because it doesn't have a
reset switch; which is *not* an elegant way to get going. What key
combination would get me going or to a shell? CentOS 5, fully updated,
32 bit. TIA!
