Hi listees! Just installed C6 (more or less) permanently on my eeepc. I've enabled rpmfusion non-free, rpmfusion free, elrepo, and epel, prior to this point I've been running fedora on it (f10 thru f14) and have always found VLC at rpmfusion. (but finally RHEL/Centos have become modern enough to support the eeepc's funky hardware, so I'm switching back--tired of the version

I just got a Canon Canoscan LiDE 210 scanner, which the SANE project pages say works "completely" with Sane. but what isn't obvious without a lot of digging is that the version of Sane in EL5 isn't new enough. it works fine with what's on my eeepc (Fedora 17) but not Centos 5.9. I've been messing around with building sane from source, but have not been fully

Hi all! This seems to me as if it should be a trivial thing to do, but so far I've wasted a lot of time on it and gotten nowhere: I want to feed audio from a source (ipod, other player) into the audio input on my C7 box via either the phone jack or an external USB sound "card" I have, then I want to play it via the speakers connected to the system. I can find no way to do it with

gang, I feel dumb having to ask this... I've got a Centos 5.5 installation (it's not new, I've been using it for over a year on this machine) and all of a sudden just a few minutes ago everything on the gnome desktop disappeared. no icons, right-click doesn't bring up a context menu. the panels are still there, though, thank goodness. tried logging off and back on but that

On 6.5, I've got openswan installed, but yum update is wanting to install libreswan. If libreswan is intended to replace openswan, wouldn't the appropriate yum transactions have been created to remove opnswan first? I'm stumped. Advice appreciated.

I've used Brothers printer driver installer tool to install drivers on C7 for a DCP7650DN. Cups thinks printing is working fine, but nothing ever arrives at the printer: the printer remains asleep. Looking at some of the setup instructions for the brother driver, it looks as if it wants a symbolic link of /etc/init.d/cups to /etc/init.d/lpd. neither of those exists in a systemd system, so

I have a full disk image file (courtesy of ddrescue), and need to mount one of its partitions. I suppose I should have just extracted the single partition when I was using ddrescue, but right now I have the whole disk instead, and no disk space left to re-do the extraction (in fact I won't be able to use the system where I did it for several weeks, so I'd love to be able to mount just the

Hi all! I ran into a description of how to set up a compose key for F21 and decided to see if it would work on C6. Well, the right configuration dialog exists, and I can choose a key to use, but after completion, the compose key doesn't seem to work. It works like a charm on Centos-7, though. If I select Right Win as the compose key, typing <compose>ae results in "?" as I

I'm running C7, fully up to date. I'm also running the MATE desktop (from epel) though the original installation was Gnome. a couple weeks ago my USB headset worked as both earphones and mic. today when I plug it in I get nothing. right-clicking on the speaker icon in the upper panel I can choose "sound preferences" (as an aside, how can I figure out what program that actually

I have a VPN connection using the openconnect vpn, and it is managed by network manager. Works fine. It has been on my system since the original Centos 7.x release. Now that I have Centos 7.3, while it still works fine, I find that I can no longer add a new connection using openconnect. I also find that I am not allowed to edit the existing openconnect vpn definition. attempting to create a new
