Last week, I installed CentOS 6 yet again. I took the default desktop: gnome. Whenever I open a directory, I get a new window. That gets rather annoying, especially when I have to drill down several levels. Is there around that behaviour? If it's in edit->preferences, I didn't find it. Eventually I expect to change desktops. Until then, any ideas? -- Michael hennebry at

fred.c: static void sfunc(int *p) { *p=1; } static int x; void fred(void) { ... sfunc(&x); ... } greg.c: static void sfunc(int *p) { *p=2; } static int x; void greg(void) { ... sfunc(&x); ... } Once the object files from fred.c and greg.c are linked, how does ELF distinguish the sfunc's and the x's? I've been trying to RTFM, but it hasn't helped? -- Michael

CentOS 6.4 died on me again. Didn't leave any traces that I could find. The screen just suddenly went black. Couldn't switch to another virtual terminal. Pushing the reset button worked. Didn't have to power off this time. -- Michael hennebry at web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "On Monday, I'm gonna have to tell my kindergarten class, whom I teach not to run with scissors, that my

Sommetimes, for no apparent reason, my mouse cursor will become four arrows and suddenly I cannot do anything with my desktop. I can move the cursor and that is it. Clicking has no effect. cnrtl-alt-F6 gave me another virtual console from which I could post this. Other rebooting, how do I fix this? I'm running xfce on 6.2. -- Michael hennebry at web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "On Monday,

Apparently I hadn't done any scanning since my move to centos. hp-scan works for root, but not for me as me. When I try to use xsane, it tells me no device found. When I try to use hp-scan as myself it tells me: error: Unable to locate device hpaio:/usb/Photosmart_C3100_series?serial=CN6ARC321S04KV using SANE backend hpaio:. Please check HPLIP installation. What do I change to make it let me

How do I set up a subversion repository so that svn can use an svnserve running locally? I own the repository. svnserve -d -r ... runs as me. svn mkdir -m 'make trunk' svn://localhost/redeye/trunk fails with svn: Authorization failed There is no request for credentials. Is anyone that can willing to share an example that works? I'm running CentOP 6.2 [hennebry at 67-61-185-5 reps]$

How, if at all, does one specify the size of a Java Popup? setSize on the contents Component does not get the job done regardless of when applied. I keep getting the same small square, serveral pixels on an edge. Is this documented somewhere? I've been trying to use docs.oracle.com, but nothing I've found answers the question. I truly hate the poke it and see what it does method of finding

" Message from syslogd at localhost at Aug 27 08:57:53 ... kernel:Disabling IRQ #17" is the message I got on all my terminal windows at the time indicated. What is it complaining about? What should I do about it? I got some information from dmesg. It mentions IRQ 17, but the only error is from before the most recent hibernation. Here are some excerpts, in order from dmesg: SELinux:

I clicked on a window to try to raise it and get a good look. Instead, my screen turned the baby blue mentioned in the subject and I could do nothing else. The mouse cursor was not even visible. It's possible an alternate terminal was available, but I didn't think of it at the time. Eventually I hit the reset button. My Daktech machine has a reset button separate from the power button. The

Often when I try "Save a copy" from a pdf viewer, I get a nyet, no such file as /tmp/s.../... . Making the indicated directory allows the save. What is the problem? Is it a gnome thing?

How do I get a flash plugin to work with firefox? I thought that I installed it correctly, but I have yet to see any flash videos through firefox. I keep being told that I need an additional plugin. When I folow directions, I'm told I already have it? At least once, I was told I needed to upgrade. In case it helps, here is the output of yum provides '*flash*' | grep -e lash -e dobe

CentOS 6.3, libreoffice-core-3.4.5.2-16.1.el6_3.x86_64, running kde I had a couple of documents up. From a terminal window, I ran soffice to look at a document I'd just received in an email*. Looked at it. Killed the soffice session... and the other docs closed, and libreoffice shut down. Anyone else seen something like this? mark * For extra measure, I know that I've put *.docx in

I'm on Fedora 6.3. After a reboot, some proprietary software didn't want to run. I found out that the startup script for said software manually sets DISPLAY to :0.0, which I know is not a good idea, and I can fix. However, this still doesn't explain why my default X DISPLAY is suddenly :3.0. -- Joakim Ziegler - Supervisor de postproducci?n - Terminal joakim at terminalmx.com

Everyone, I am working on a Centos 5.9 system. I have an need to be able to activate a piece of software from /etc/smrsh that is activated when sendmail delivers the e-mail to this piece of software. I would like this piece of software to take on the user and group identities that are different than 'mail' which is what happens now. I want to use a user and group that is not root), so

So, I have a CentOS 6 system, and I want to make several clones of it. I'm using Clonezilla to clone the drives; that's no problem. But the drive UUIDs are driving me up the wall. After cloning, the two drives have the same UUID, but I'd like each clone to have different UUIDs so there's no possibility of a conflict when I am running diagnostics with two drives installed, etc.
