Hi, It looks like the upgrade to CentOS 7.6 has been unusually disruptive with the GNOME desktop version bump and a series of moving targets under the hood. The result is some wreckage at my client's desktop installations, which I've been busy to repair since yesterday. First things first. I have a custom configuration of GDM, which consists mainly of two things. 1. Display my

Mr. Pearson, Thanks for that, I do not have a RH support account. I will put in the scripting to ensure the directory is there. I can confirm that after putting it in there manually everything seems to work correctly. That said, I guess I'm interested in the "design" choice and if there isn't a more appropriate place to stick this type of config under the new

Hello, It seems that with CentOS 7.6 and Gnome 3.28, a clean install of a Workstation package profile does not build the /etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/ directory tree. I have several desktops in operation which we kickstart built with an older 7.3/4/5 version of CentOS as the base install media. These all have a dconf directory for gdm, and I assume a dconf profile directory for gdm as well (though I

Hi Just stumbled into a problem with my recent new build C7 work station. Fully updated, gnome desktop, all was working well until I had a play with Tweak Tool, I wanted to try some other themes for window layouts as the default seems to not show check boxes correctly in all situations. I haven't yet determined what is causing this but suspected another theme may work better, as not being

I take an internal snapshot (VM is 'shutdown' when taking it) of a qcow2 image like this: $ qemu-img snapshot -c sn1 [my_image].qcow2 I see that snapshot when asking for: $ qemu-img info [my_image].qcow but do NOT see it with: $ virsh domblklist [my_domain] is that how it is meant to be?

In the TODO file there's a discussion of perhaps writing a new 'virt-customize' tool. I think it's probably better (or at any rate, easier) to just add this functionality into virt-sysprep. That is what this small series of patches aims to achieve. Note these are not very well tested at the moment. The first patch adds a generic and useful '--firstboot' flag. The

under Centos 6, dconf -o ./outfile it will copy and combine all the .conf files to outfile. under Centos 7, is there any similar command will do the same things ? thanks, philip.

hi Martin, thanks again for the feedback. maybe you have noted that I am not yet all too familiar with those tools. this is now sort of working for me. But I sense that you seem this method to be less then ideal. Reading through the virsh manual it looks like ... $ virsh snapshot-create [domain] --disk-only --live ... might be doing a similar thing. Maybe more elegant (pure virsh) and on a

We have several dozen production Linux servers and I would like to have better control over what files are changed, by whom, when they were changed, etc. Because these are all production servers that are in use 24x7, we do not have the luxury of simply doing a clean build, taking md5sums of each file, and then doing fresh installations. I need a system that can take in-place snapshots of each

Maybe my imagination is overactive, but I seem to remember reading some- thing in the vein of a HOWTO/tutorial on adding a Win32 API call to Wine. It discussed the SPEC file, header files, etc. I've searched the winehq website and the source tree, but I can't seem to find this. Anyone know what I'm thinking of? Thanks! --

on 6 the command: gconftool-2 -t bool --list-type bool --set /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/screensaver/start_screensaver false would stop the screen saver. What is it on 7. The above seems to do nothing. Also The gnome-panel process was running in 6 - it does not seem to be run in 7. How do I hide/remove the top and bottom panel? The "hide" in gconftool-2 for top and bottom done seem

This is a known issue - see: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3599341 You will need some sort of Redhat support account to see the above page - but the 'Resolution' given is: "Create the

After we upgraded our CentOS 7.0 desktops to CentOS 7.1, a critical error in the graphical login screen has appeared on all 7.1 machines: We have 100+ users defined in /etc/passwd, and a list of names is presented on the initial login screen. However, it's impossible to scroll up or down in this user list to select the desired user. The middle mouse button seems to be disabled, so
