Hi, I'd like to run CentOS 7 in a KVM guest (host is my Slackware64 14.1 workstation). The main purpose of this installation will be to build custom RPM packages. I've made a few tests, and everything works more or less as expected. I'd like to resolve a small problem that's nagging me though. When I install a GUI, I usually start by installing a minimal system, then I add some

Hi, I recently installed CentOS 7 + KDE 4.14 on my main workstation, and overall I'm very happy with it. Okular seems to have trouble with some PDF files. I'm using the Dolibarr application to generate invoices. I can view the resulting PDF file OK, but when I try to print it, I get a blank page. A few days ago I had a similar problem with a PDF file generated from a french

Hi, I have a CentOS 7 (GNOME) desktop installed as a VirtualBox guest on my Slackware64 14.1 workstation, to fiddle with it. Guest Additions are installed and configured OK, and 3D acceleration is working too. In its default configuration, the GNOME desktop under CentOS shows an "expos?" (I don't know how you call this), a list of all open windows, when you move the mouse cursor to

Hi, I'm currently using Thunderbird synced to OwnCloud on my main workstation running Slackware64 14.1. I just installed CentOS 7 on my Asus S300 laptop. It's running nicely, and I'm spending some time getting acquainted with it. I wonder if I should stick with Thunderbird or go with the default Evolution application, since this seems to be better integrated into the desktop, namely

Hi Niki, md127 apparently only uses 81.95GB per disk. Maybe one of the partitions has the wrong size. What's the output of lsblk?

Hi, I just installed a CentOS 7 + KDE desktop in my office's network. So far, I'm quite happy with the results, though I have some trouble getting the printer to work. All the other machines in my office (server, desktops, workstation) are running Slackware64 14.1 or 14.2, and they can all use the printer perfectly. I installed hplip-gui and ran it. The printer is a network printer, it

Hi, I just installed a fresh CentOS 6.6 desktop. It's a client's machine, it is physically installed on a testbench in my office. Usually, when I perform installations, I start with the base system on the testbench, and once networking is configured, I SSH into it and then do all the fine-tuning remotely. My configuration files, scripts and HOWTOs are all stored in a Github

Hi, Up until recently, I've been running Wine 1.6.2 on my workstation under Slackware64 14.1. I used it to emulate a handful of legacy apps that ran under Windows XP. They worked perfectly with that setup. After migrating the workstation from Slackware to CentOS 7, I installed the Wine packages, but none of my applications run. I only get an error message about "wrong EXE

Hi, Some time ago one of my public servers (running Slackware64 14.0) got attacked and was misused to send phishing emails. This misadventure made me more concerned about security, so I spent the last few weeks catching up on security, reading docs about SELinux and how to use it, etc. I have a public sandbox server running CentOS 7, and I'm currently experimenting quite a lot with Apache

Hi, In my office I have an HP Proliant server running CentOS 7. It's a minimal install without GUI. The machine has two network interface cards, and for now it's acting as gateway/firewall, and it's running ntpd, Dnsmasq and Rsnapshot. I'd like this machine to also be a KVM virtualization host, so I installed qemu-kvm and libvirt. The interface facing the LAN is enp3s0, so I

Hi, I'm planning to use CentOS 6.x on a handful of LAN servers. So far I've been using Slackware64 14.0 and 14.1 for the job. I wonder what's the orthodox/recommended way of configuring and iptables firewall with CentOS. I understand there's the system-config-securitylevel-tui NCurses interface which allows defining a basic set of rules. But what about the handful of more

Hi, I just replaced Slackware64 14.1 running on my office's HP Proliant Microserver with a fresh installation of CentOS 7. The server has 4 x 250 GB disks. Every disk is configured like this : * 200 MB /dev/sdX1 for /boot * 4 GB /dev/sdX2 for swap * 248 GB /dev/sdX3 for / There are supposed to be no spare devices. /boot and swap are all supposed to be assembled in RAID level 1 across

Hi, I'm currently experimenting with CentOS 7 in order to get a grasp of everything that's new. After having read the FAQ entry on network interface names, I decided to revert to the tradictional interface naming scheme by adding the relevant kernel options to the bootloader. This went well, I have now two interfaces names 'eth0' and 'eth1' as expected. In my office

Hi, I recently migrated my office's server from Slackware64 14.1 to CentOS 7. Right now I'm in the process of configuring the Squid web proxy.

Hi, Two weeks ago I migrated all our local school's servers and clients from Slackware 14.1 to CentOS 7. Everything went perfectly, and now I'm busy sanding down some edges. The previous installation sported pdftk and a frontend (can't remember the name) which allowed some basic operations on PDF files such as splitting and concatenation. The school's staff used this application
