Gimp on Centos 5 has somehow lost its ability to load a pdf file on three (i386) different computers. I'm pretty sure that this used to work. When I try to load a PDF file I get the initial box titled "Load Postscript" with rendering and antialiasing options, but when I hit OK I get an error message: Opening "filename" failed: Plug-In could not open image."

Googling for this finds me a ton of stuff that doesn't actually do what I'm looking for. I want a simple hit counter cgi script of some kind that will increment a counter on every page load but I want to access the counter from a different page. In other words, I don't want to have a visible hit counter on the webpage itself. I want to have a different webpage that will show me the

I have a Samsung M800 phone that I had (wrongly) assumed would show up as a USB drive on Linux so I can transfer files to it and so on. Instead, it appears to present itself as a modem. Is there any way to make it appear as a usb drive?

I set up a Centos 5 machine a couple of weeks ago and everything was working perfectly. It survived a few reboots and whatnot with no problem. I moved it to another location on Saturday afternoon and, again, it booted up and worked fine. It was rebooted this morning and now the graphical login screen doesn't appear. Everything appears to load normally but once the text login screen

While rebooting my computer after installing the new kernel a few minutes ago, I got to wondering about how the initial bootup screen (after grub, before rhgb) is constructed. The "Loading kernel blah blah blah" lines start at the top of the screen and proceed to scroll down as one would expect. But "kernel alive" shows up at the bottom of the screen and then more write-up is

I have a weird NFS problem here. I am trying to set up a machine with Centos 5 on it. First time I've tried Centos, but it looks like it's going to be the real thing for some machines that I look after that are intended to be long-term "just works" application servers. I plan to start reading and participating in this mailing list now, so Hello to everyone! My name is Frank

I have never done anything with a card reader before so I have no idea what I'm doing here. I have a laptop with a card reader in it and when I put the card in I see this in /var/log/messages: Feb 5 13:28:58 localhost pcscd: winscard.c:304:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found This comes up many times in the log. I suspect that this means that I'm missing some package that I

The Print Notifier icon appears in on my Gnome panel when I print something. After the job is completed, the icon grays out, but it's still present. With my Fedora setup, the icon appears when the job is active or pending, then it goes away completely until the next time I print something. How can I make Centos 5.3 do the same thing? -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~

I'm a bit confused about how to compile somethingon Centos 5 that's looking for gtk +-2. ./configure errors out with this message: checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.4.0... no *** Could not run GTK+ test program, checking why... *** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the *** exact error that occured. This usually means GTK+ is incorrectly installed.

I've been getting a lot of questions over the past day or two about whether/when Firefox 3.5 will be coming to Centos. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com

I manage some remote multi-user computers where it would be very handy to be able to "edit" the users' panel bars remotely, adding, removing and arranging applications and icons as needed. It's easy to put an icon on a user's desktop -- just write a .desktop file and put it into the user's Desktop directory. Can I do the same thing with the users' panel bars

I want to set up a multiple "mode" computer with four separate Centos installations on it. The objective here is to have a "spare computer" that I can boot up into any of four "modes" depending on what I'm swapping it in for a the moment. For example, I want to be able to boot it up as a webserver, or as a fileserver, or as a LTSP-enabled application server.

I was attempting to rebuild the Centos 5.4 freetype rpm freetype-2.2.1-21.el5_3.src.rpm and got the following error. What do I need to do to solve it?

I currently have my Acer Aspire One netbook set up with Fedora 11. I would like to change it over to Centos 5.4 if I can. I downloaded the Centos 5.4 i386 livecd image and made a bootable USB flash drive out of it. Unfortunately, when I boot off of that flash drive, Grub (I guess) immediately turns the screen entirely white. If I hit a key I can faintly see the outline of "Press tab to

I found a command-line program that did this once before, used it for a while and then forgot about it until right now and I'll be damned if I can find it again. A command line IP calculator that takes an address range and give it back in cidr format. I found an online one that does this here: http://www.ipaddresslocation.org/subnet-mask-calculator.php But I would prefer to have the

I have been trying to get a EVDO modem to work with Centos 5 and earlier this evening I used system-config-network to add it to the system. Now when I try to run system-config-network again it crashes with the following error. Can anyone tell me how I can fix this?

This computer is my main desktop machine --- an Intel i7-940 CPU and DX58S0 motherboard with a Radeon X1950 Pro video card. It's currently running Fedora 11 and working just fine. However, I have been slowly moving all of my "computer stuff" off of Fedora and onto Centos, and this (and my Acer Aspire One laptop) are the only Fedora installations that I now have left. Does anyone

To this point, whenever I've plugged a storage device (flash drive, mp3 player) into a USB plug, it's magically mounted and I get an icon on my desktop. I've just got a card reader and it doesn't automount. I can mount it manually with "mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/temp" and that works fine. I would prefer to have it automount and give me the desktop icon. Unfortunately, I
