Hey Y'all, I've been trying for months to get samba to share my printer with my wife's Win XP machine. I've RTFM, and spent hours on google to no avail. I can't see the printer from Windows so I can't mount it up. Nothing appears in the logs. The file shares work just fine. It looks like I've got Samba 3.6.9 on this machine: [mlapier at mushroom samba]$ rpm -qa

Hey Y'all, I though I would resurrect a long dead mail chain. I'm looking for a good replacement for Rhythmbox. I need a pod catcher to catch podcasts and download them to my HD where I can then move them onto my mp3 player that I take to work every day. I don't need a new mp3 player so don't suggest VLC. It is not able to download podcasts. I'm in the process of

Hey All, Is it safe to allow the 193 series kernel update now? Last time I tried that my system refused to boot. I had to roll back to the 4.18.0-147 kernel to get my machine to reboot. Since that happened I've been watching this mail list for acknowledgement that the problem has been corrected while refusing the kernel update. I may have missed the announcement that the issue was

Hey all, When I log on my sound level is set at about 35%. I have to use the sound preferences to turn the sound level up every time I log in. Other users on this same system do not have this issue. When they log in their volume is set at 100%. This leads me to believe that there must be something in my local settings that is turning down my sound volume settings. Does anyone have a clue

Hey Y'all, Recently my sound has been misbehaving. The issue exists when I play sound using Rhythmbox, Totem Movie Player, or even Youtube video in Firefox or Chrome. The sound stutters and drops out. Sounds very rough. On Youtube the sound will eventually just die and can not be restarted until the browser is shut down and restarted. I've had issues related to Repo Forge

Hey Y'all, I'm looking at ZCad: http://sourceforge.net/projects/zcad/?source=directory It looks like the kind of 3D CAD package that I've been looking for. It says that it works on Linux but it's zipped with 7-Zip which doesn't seem to be available for CentOS. Does anyone know if ZCAD or 7-Zip is packaged for CentOS X86-64 somewhere out there? -- _ ?v? /(_)\ ^

Hey Y'all, After upgrade to 6.6 my gui will not start. The problem is probably related to the dusty old video card I've got in this crusty old machine. 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G73 [GeForce 7600 GS] (rev a2) I've got the proprietary drivers installed. Normally when I update my kernel the video module is rebuilt automagically. That probably doesn't

Hey Y'all, I have the Stanford University Folding At Home project running on three of my machines. I had them all set up so that I could control them all from my main machine, 192.168.15.101, but some time ago something changed so that I can no longer connect to the FAH clients on the other two machines. I figured it wasn't really important so I would look into it later. Well time has

Hey Y'all, Seems my Skype installation has stopped working. I have skype-4.3.0.37-2.el6.i686.rpm from the Nux repo.

Hey Y'all, I'm trying to mount a USB drive with an NTFS file system on it. I need the drive in a win-7 virtual box instance.

Hi, all. I'm trying to install the EPEL repo on a fully up to date CentOS 6.4. I'm using wget to download from my usual source but after I install it via `sudo rpm -ivh epel-xxxxx` it's not actually there in `/etc/yum.repos.d`. Trying to install it again, Yum just tells me it's already installed. I've no idea where it is installed if it is (which I don't think it is)

Hey Y'all, I just set up a new old machine on my network. I did a net install of CentOS 6.7 on it replacing an outdated copy of Win XP. Of course I'm now in the throws of configuring the machine to be a useful member of society.

Hey Y'all, What replaced Gstreamer and Mplayer in CentOS 8. RPM finder finds both for CentOS 6 and 7 but not 8. There must be a replacement for them but I don't know what. I appear to be having codec issues but, not knowing what's supposed to handle the jobs that the two programs used to do, I don't know where to look for a commercial set of codecs compatible with the

Hey Y'all, I've been Googeling and experimenting for two days trying to find a way to deal with the Intel 845-G video chipset in this Dell Dimension 2400. First, it doesn't have a DVD drive so I have to install from a CD. When I try to boot into the Live CD I get a video error something like, Undefined video mode number: 317. It hangs at the splash screen. I was able to make a

Hey Y'all, I have a yum update failure that remains consistent and repeatable. This is what happens every time I try to update the java package.
