similar to: 6.1 .iso size?

I picked up some data from the nearest hospital to take to the specialist at the next one, with whom I had an appt.; it came on a CD, which is marked "DICOM Volume with GE Centricity Viewer." When I put the CD into a drive, Fedora 11 auto-mounts it, and fails to find the autorun.exe, which is right there in plain sight. (F11 knows it exists, and asks whether to run it, and then

Recently, I put CentOS 6.4 on one of the four PCs I keep behind a KVM switch. I like it a whole lot in most ways, but Fedora has spoiled me : I install almost every browser I can, and generally keep half a dozen or more open, mostly with several tens of tabs open. Iow, I use browsers as I used to use books, back in the Carboniferous when I had a desk in the stacks. Are there ways a

Why do I keep getting this, and what do I do?? The error message is Greek to me. :-{ [root at Hbsk ~]# yum update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit, security Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile epel/metalink | 13 kB 00:00 * c6-media: * epel: mirror.vcu.edu * remi: rpms.famillecollet.com

With invaluable help here, I've just gotten 6.0 onto a PC. I went through the listings in PackageKit, removing things I know I'll never use; ran yum update; installed Opera; went to the epel, rpmfusion, and one whose name slips my mind (It's a new name.); enabled them all; and tried to get a lot of my regular apps : [....] Setting up Install Process No package dillo

I tried doing scp between two machines on my LAN. It whizzed along at great speed for a long time, mostly displaying messages over and over saying either something about permission (denied, I presume), or else about too many levels of symlinks. What I use it for is GPS/map software -- legacy proprietary stuff from Garmin and Maptech, to which I have added a lot of personal data collected

With snarls and curses and gnashing of teeth, I still keep one laptop and one dual-bootable PC hard drive with XPProSP2 installed. (Everything else is Fedora 10.) I do so purely for one class of apps, proprietary map software. Wine can now install and run at least one, and the most important, of the four suites of such apps that I have. (That one is Garmin MapSource, including Topo US

I've been being told, over and over, by K3B, Brasero, and Isomaster, on two machines, with three different downloads of 6.0, that the file is too large for the medium. Nautilus and the browser that die each download all say it's 4.4 GB; I've tried with two +R and an RW DVD, all of which are labelled 4.7 GB Two of the files are 32-bit, and one is 64 What is going wrong?? --

Last time I tried, a few years back, Wine was not yet up to handling Garmin's proprietary topo map software. It would install, and sometimes even work, so long as I didn't try to connect a GPS to it. (The ones I have are all also Garmins -- old ones wanting a serial port.) I made a huge effort, for most of a year, with a lot of help from high-powered Alpha Plus Technoids on several

Does anyone know a way to run a Scrabble program on CentOS? (I realize the obvious existence of Wine and of virtual machines; but my experience with both has been thoroughly unsatisfactory. So I'd much rather get a linux-native app.) There seem to be two proprietary Scrabble programs, one in which you play against the computer, and one in which you play against a remote friend.

Very Dumb Question here -- basically, am I in trouble? Or in other words, I have to ask myself a Falstaffian question: "Which .wine, Bezonian?" Let me expound. On several lists for different parts of the problem, according to their interest and my best judgment, I've been pursuing the topic of GPS/topo map settings, under Crossover Office Pro 5.0.1 (CXO) using Fedora Core 4, trying

I'm running Fedora14 on all machines, including my wife's -- and I'm the nearest (distant) thing there is to tech support. She's far more likely to outlive me than I her; so I want to install something requiring a lot less maintenance on her machine, so that she'll have it and be used to it, years ahead of need. I'm thinking CentOS 6, whenever it's ready, is

For years, I could install, and sometimes run, legacy private map software under Wine. But in order to connect it with my GPSs, I had to keep a separate hard drive with XP, and do that there. Then came a brief time when I could also actually make my Garmin GPSs talk with the software under Wine. I transferred all my data to it, and gleefully wiped XP off my machine. Then the connecting

Let me set up a Very Dumb Question (VDQ). My apologies in advance for repeating much of this to those who have been of such vast help getting me this far. (Followup to: is set as gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.general) I have a testbed machine which currently has /dev/hda1 - 6, according to qtparted, with sizes 102 MB, 14 GB, 13 GB, 13 GB, 12 GB, and 14 MB respectively (rounded to nearest whole MB or

I have Garmin's topo map software for the USA, 2008 version, and also a very old MapSource MetroGuide (ca. 1998) installed under wine. All is well -- except the biggest thing. Neither program can detect the etrex vista nor the rino 120, using Garmin's cables. The topo couldn't before I added the road maps,so that's not the trouble. Both, on the other (<shudder>

I have tried installing various GPS/topo map software suites on four Fedora machines under wine. On three of them, the install claims to succeed; the suite fails even to launch; I try to uninstall it; the uninstall either admits failure, or pretends to succeed while leaving the software still there and clickable (but, of course, not launchable). On one, I then ran a Fedora search (beagle, I

On an old server (Dell PowerEdge SC1420, now without RAID) I have CentOS 6.4 installed, up, and running -- but it keeps failing to connect for some reason .... NetworkManager applet 0.8.1 runs blue rings around in the panel for a while, then reports itself disconnected. It also offers a pseudo-choice, if I right-click, between Wired Connection and eth0; in fact,

I put a CentOS 7 live CD into a PC several years old, and ran it without trouble for several days. Then I told it to install itself to the hard drive. That took kind of a while (perhaps because the machine is behind a KVM switch with three others?), but eventually told me it had finished. I rebooted. Given my druthers, I would now run Yumex, deleting as many as I could of all the things I

I read wine-users, as I read every list I can, through the Gmane interface, running Pan against news.gmane.org -- and recently hit a new gremlin. Supposing it something wrong with my connection or my Pan settings, I asked there.

My wife's PC, running CentOS 6, suddenly quit connecting to the Net. Autodidact that I am, I fumbled with all the hard- and software I could find or dared try, but did no good. So we lugged it down to our favorite shop. While there, she bought a laptop, and asked them to install CentOS and copy all her files from the PC (including two books she's written and is trying to market).

Very Dumb Question : I have tried about four times now, using an old pentium2 with two hard drives (20 GB and 30 GB) to install both CentOS 4.4 and Fedora Core 6 in such a way as to enable dual-boot between them. I've tried it by installing 4.4 first, and then FC6. I've tried it by installing FC6 first, and then 4.4. I've tried it with and without giving the installer permission to
