This is an error you can't blame on your device. domain is not a file, but a bash variable. read takes stdin (which is what the OP's snippet is doing) and populates the named variable(s) (domain in this case). --keith --

Hi all, A year or two ago, I installed CentOS 7.0 (or 7.1) on an old MacBook Pro, and compiled the Broadcom drivers as documented here: https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless/Broadcom After not using it for a while, I recently resurrected it, and updated to 7.4. Unfortunately that page has not been updated in a while, so only documents compiling for 7.3. When I try the patch, it

I'm so out of it I hadn't even heard of MATE or Cinnamon. :) They seem more like DEs, what are folks using as straight window managers? I showed my son, who's only really used

I just purchased an MBP, and having relied on Xen for virtualization on my servers for a long time now, I''d like to try setting up Mac OS as a domU on the laptop so that I can run other VMs under Xen to have real *nix environments at all times for non-Mac OS development. I''ve been looking around online, but haven''t seen anything particularly recent about running Mac OS

Hi all, I'm doing a very informal and unscientific poll: which kernel do you use on your CentOS machines? Not which version of the CentOS kernel, but which repository. Here are some examples I can think of off the top of my head: ==CentOS stock ==build own from CentOS SRPMs ==kernel-ml (from ELRepo) ==kernel-lt (from ELRepo) ==OpenVZ kernel ==build own from kernel.org ==other? One reason

Hi all, Is there any way to get a CentOS 7 ISO with the centosplus kernel? I have some very old hardware I'd like to keep going if easy, but it has old NVidia network cards that need the forcedeth driver. Apparently this driver is now in the centosplus kernel, but if I use the default ISO I won't be able to get on the network to get the centosplus kernel. (Of course I can get the kernel

Is there a little setup display right on the box? Just asking because I have seen that on some boxes. Cheers, Boris.

Well, the worm has turned and I think I may actually get an Apple ;P. But I can''t decide which one. Pros and cons: 14" iBook: + modem (for when broadband kicks out, or on the road and there''s no WIFI) + screen is probably big enough (though I currently have a 15" Dell) + doesn''t get as hot as the MacBook + almost half the cost + less likely to get stolen -

There is software out there which will rebuild. It is advanced level, so I would concur with the others to take it to a professional data recovery service. Most importantly at this moment is to remove the hard drive, or at least shut down the server to minimize the read/write to the disk. The more writes done the less likely recovery will be possible. Also, know whether you just want to

Enable GPU switching on the pre-retina MacBook Pro (2008 - 2013), v5. The main obstacle on these machines is that the panel mode in VBIOS is bogus. Fortunately gmux can switch DDC independently from the display, thereby allowing the inactive GPU to probe the panel's EDID. In short, vga_switcheroo and apple-gmux are amended with hooks to switch DDC, DRM core is amended with a
