similar to: SOLVED: Re: KStars on CentOS 4.4?

Is there an RPM for this? I think it's in the kdeedu package on the FC6 DVD. My wife is an amateur astronomer and she uses this excellent program. If upstream isn't including it, can I get it and not break my CentOS 4.4 system? (Also, I'd like to migrate her and my daughter to CentOS). TIA, Lanny

Hello: The box is dual boot (Win XP & CentOS 5). A Dell Dimension 4300 Celeron. There was an intermittent problem with this last year and last Thanksgiving, I wiped the HD and installed Win XP and CentOS 5 clean. My daughter asked me to install KStars which is in the kdeedu RPM on the Fedora Core 6 Install DVD. I did that, without any problems, on my box and on my wife's box. On the

Hello, I am new to this list. ?I am trying to compile the current svn version of kdeedu on an amd64 linux machine ?which uses R and I get the following compiler output. ------------------------------------------- ?79%] Building CXX object cantor/src/backends/R/rserver/CMakeFiles/cantor_rserver.dir/rserver.o $SOURCES/kdeedu/cantor/src/backends/R/rserver/rserver.cpp: In member function

I have a simple automount configuration problem. I've done two similar, clean, Custom installations of CentOS 5.0, on two similar, but not identical boxes. On my box, automount is working perfectly. On my daughter's box, it's not working. If I put the FC6 DVD into the drive in my box, I can see the contents of the DVD, without any problem. If I cat /etc/mtab in my box, I see this line:

does this exist for CentOS 4 ? OK - next level of question then... taking a wild swing, I set up /etc/yum.repos/kde-redhat.repo and for S&G's, I ran the obligatory 'yum update' to see what would happen. It's an aggressive update to be sure. KDE 3.5.0 (and all the dependent stuff such as qt) but also samba and openoffice. Is anyone reporting happiness / contentment with

This is very OT. If list readers can point me in the right direction, to other mailing lists, or web sites for recommended databases, that will be much appreciated! My wife's doctor wants to move records, for approximately 6000 patients (over a 12 year period), from paper (18th century) to a database (20th century). The data entry will be a PITA, for his secretaries, regardless of what

This is a public thank you, to whoever wrote the Wiki's for adding 3rd party repositories, ProtectBase and Priorities. Clear, excellent, step by step instructions. I did this late last night and I missed the thing that Priorities is the recommended plugin, so I will change to that, from ProtectBase. :-) Lanny

I don't know the correct way to get this into the system, so I'm posting here. On this page: http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities a line begins: Some packages specify obsoletes in their metadata. This property of a packages that should be "This property of a package" not packages, singular. An incredibly minor error, on an extremely helpful Wiki page. Lanny
