Hi all. I need to run X on a headless server, and I am having a hard time configuring null devices in xorg.conf. Here are the server's vital stats as per the getinfo.sh script on centos.org: http://pastebin.centos.org/33908 When I try to start X: [root at CentOS-55-32-minimal ~]# startx xauth: creating new authority file /root/.serverauth.11196 X Window System Version 7.1.1 Release Date:

Can grep show the matching lines and the next N lines after a match? For instance, I have a config file wit hthe following text: [Tag h1] foreground=#2e5a03 underline=double indent=0 weight=PANGO_WEIGHT_BOLD scale=2.25 I would ideally grep on "[Tag h1]" and have grep display the match and the next 5 lines so that I see all the content of the h1 section. Can this be done? Thanks! --

Hi David, I have a copy of Windows that I bought a year or two ago, but never really used it, as I preferred to use Linux. Got it just in case I needed the license, I guess now I can put it to use. Me paying for the Windows copy should include the fonts, right? It's working now, and showing the fonts. Thanks a lot :-D Now all that I have left is to get the characters to attach, and I

I have a Debian machine with four users that I plan on migrating to CentOS. As per Debian habits the UIDs start with 1000. Is it enough to reuse the Debian /etc/shadow and /etc/passwd files over? Or will I need to configure some other things? I had considered just creating four new users starting from UID 500 then chown -R -ing the user's home directories, but I find that invasive and

AMD is dropping support for the R300-R500 cards in their official drivers: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=amd_r500_legacy&num=1 As the current open source drivers do not support 3D, I'd like to know which Compiz effects use 3D and which use 2D.

All commands return a value, usually 0 if run properly. For instance, try: $ ls && echo "done" $ lsd && echo "done" The echo command is only executed if the ls command exited successfully. If one did not add the echo command with the && after a command, how can he determine if the command exited successfully? I have a particularly troubling script that

I've been going along not noticing things happening right under my nose. so imagine my surprise when I discovered last night that my Centos 5 box has installed multiple new kernels over the last few months, as updates come out, and IT IS NOT BOOTING THE NEWST ONE. grub.conf says to boot kernel 0, and 0 is the newest one. but the one it actually boots is 6 or 8 down the list (clearly I've

On a CentOS 5.5 laptop (Dell Inspiron, dual boot with a Debian-based distro) I have a cable plugged into eth0 which is on a LAN with no internet connection. Additionally, I connect wirelessly on wlan0 to the internet. Both connections have router on the 192.168.0.1 address. Although I need to stay connected to the wireless router, can I still access the address 192.168.0.1 on the wired

I have installed Postfix, Dovecot, and Squirrelmail on a CentOS 5.5 machine. In Squirrelmail a user can send mail, but he is not receiving replies. There is nothing relevant in the maillog other than the user's (successful) login attempts. I am at loss, I have been following tutorials such as the Perfect Server [1] series and other Google results, but I cannot get this thing to receive mail.

I just got off a Windows 7 terminal which has rotating tab completion, this means that in the case of completion ambiguity the shell completes one of the possibilities, and subsequent tabs complete to different possibilities. This in contrast to bash's behaviour of simply printing a list of possibilities. Googling I have found that bash can in fact have rotating completion by setting

I had successfully installed BrilliantPhoto with wine, so that I have the directory: file:/home/dotancohen/.wine/c/Program Files/Brilliant Labs/BrilliantPhoto but when I run the command wine /home/dotancohen/.wine/c/Program\ Files/Brilliant\ Labs/BrilliantPhoto/BrilliantPhoto.exe it justs sits there with no output until I ctrl-Z it. Silly me, I even tried to click the icon in Konqueror to start

There is a CentOS 5.2 machine that is sometimes found to be offline. It runs a few websites but nothing very high traffic. I happened to notice a few days ago that before it went down, one of the sites written in PHP was throwing errors that it could not connect to the MySQL backend. Two hours later, the whole server was down and wasn't even responding to SSH. It's not my box, but I may
