Hi, I'm having a very weird problem with CentOS as a VirtualBox guest. Let me explain it step by step. tl;dr: I can install VirtualBox Guest Additions and configure a fullscreen 1280x1024 graphical resolution on a full install, but not on a reduced install with a lightweight window manager. Here's what I did. 1. Install vanilla CentOS 7 with KDE. 2. Boot to reduced 1024x768

As I said in a previous post, the EPEL OwnCloud client packages are lagging behind a bit, but so far, the only inconvenience are the nagging update notifications on startup.

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

This may be a very far-fetched idea, but here goes. I don't know much about Docker, just fiddled around with it a couple hours in a VM. Since I have

Hi, I just spent a couple of unnerving hours trying to make Dropbox work on CentOS 6.6. Is there a way that 1. Actually works? 2. Doesn't include jumping through burning loops?

Hi, Until last week, I could install a CentOS 7 based desktop using the following approach: 1. Install minimal system. 2. yum groupinstall "X Window System" 3. yum install gdm gnome-classic-session gnome-terminal liberation-fonts 4. Install applications as needed. This morning, the package group "X Window System" seems to have disappeared. This is embarrassing. What

I know this is weird, but I've had cases where the downloaded NVidia driver worked and the ELRepo driver didn't, and the other way around.

Hi, I'm currently fiddling with CentOS 8.0 on a sandbox server in order to get acquainted with its various quirks and idiosyncrasies. Here's the first curious detail I noticed. I used the CentOS installer in french (since I live in France), but I like my server systems to default to english. (If you've ever read one of these funny "frengrish" SELinux alerts, you'll

Hi, I've been regularly using the Yum Priorities plugin for the last decade or so. Apparently it has been obsoleted with CentOS 8. I've googled around for replacements, and there is some conflicting or otherwise misleading information about it. I'm aware the late Yum developer Seth Vidal had a bad opinion of priorities. This being said, I like the idea of third party repositories

Hi, I'm currently experimenting with Yum on a fresh CentOS 7 minimal install, and I'm getting some puzzling results. Here's what I did. 1. Install CentOS 7 from the Minimal CD. 2. Install 'deltarpm' and update all packages. 3. Install the "Core" package group: 'yum group install "Core"' 4. Install the "Base" package group: 'yum

Hi, I'm hosting a few web apps like OwnCloud, Wordpress and Dolibarr on CentOS 7 that require a handful of changes to php.ini. I have to define some custom values for post_max_size, upload_max_filesize, etc. I don't know if I'm supposed to edit /etc/php.ini directly or if changes should be put in a configuration file stub in /etc/php.d. For example, I followed the recommendations of

Hi, I wonder if there's an easy way to strip down an installation to the bare minimum, e. g. the packages you get when you select "minimum installation". In Slackware, the bone-headed package manager slackpkg has a few nice options, among which 'slackpkg clean-system', which removes all third-party packages in one single operation, or 'slackpkg remove

Hi everybody, I'm back to CentOS after a long period during which I've been using mainly Slackware. I still use Slackware for teaching and for my local clients (on servers and desktops), but right now, I'm planning to update my own documentation about CentOS, which is still based on version 5.x. First things first. For the moment I have a sandbox server in my office with a
