I second this. I find it rather ironic that one would try to initiate discussion of an open source operating system and environment in a proprietary walled off world. This seems rather antithetical to the whole intent of centos. - Richard ------------ Original Message ------------ > Date: Monday, October 09, 2017 12:14:55 +0100 > From: Nux! <nux at li.nux.ro> > > I

I personally dislike Facebook, but even so, I think a basic requirement for any web site striving to share knowledge is to be publicly accessible to all which at the moment it is not. Search engines won't be able to crawl it, people without an account won't be able to access it. Can this be changed? Thanks -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology!

Hi everyone. I have a pleasure to announce that official CentOS group on Facebook will reach 15.000 members in next 6-9 days, somewhere just before April 1st :) Average rate of new members, mostly total newbies, is around 140-180 members per week.

So, there is no switch there to make the group public? It requires login now, that's what I was moaning about basically. -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology!

I did some more research, and it looks like the problem is NOT related to missing fonts. I installed a vanilla CentOS 7 desktop, activated EPEL, installed cdlabelgen, downloaded Gtkcdlabel,

Hi, I just setup a CentOS 6 desktop with the nux-dextop repository activated. When installing GIMP (yum install gimp), I get a gimp package as well as a gimp28 package. I understand this is the Nux-Dextop GIMP 2.8 package. Unfortunately this doesn't work so well with my system. It's not localized (menus appear in english, though the system is in French), the main GTK theme (Murrina

I spent a few hours fiddling with various driver versions and configurations. In the end, I simply ripped out the %&#@$ Quadro card and replaced it with a GeForce 8300, which works perfectly with the kmod-nvidia-340xx driver.

Hi, My workstation is currently running Slackware Linux 14.1 64-bit, and I'm considering replacing that by CentOS 7, which I've already installed on my laptop. The PC has an NVidia GeForce GT 520 video card with two 19'' monitors attached to it. I'm using the proprietary 'nvidia' driver. I vaguely remember having read somewhere that RHEL/CentOS 7 with GNOME 3 had

Hi, I just spent two rainy days writing and fine-tuning a post-installation script for CentOS 7 and KDE. https://github.com/kikinovak/centos-7-desktop-kde I've just tested it on three different machines here, and it works quite nicely. Feel free to give it a spin and make some suggestions. Cheers, Niki -- Microlinux - Solutions informatiques durables 7, place de l'?glise - 30730

Hi, I wonder where - and eventually how - GNOME 3 stores its user preferences. I'd like to create a custom user profile, with slightly different settings than the default ones: * don't show home folder on ~/Desktop * don't show Trash * use custom default wallpaper * stretch wallpaper instead of zooming * use different default icon theme * etc. Until now I've done this

Hi, I have CentOS 7 with KDE installed on my workstation. Sometimes - like just now - the system refuses to shutdown correctly. The problem appeared since I installed the OpenVAS vulnerability scanner (the one from EPEL), so I don't know if this is linked. When I try to shutdown the system, I see shutdown messages, and then it stops short on the following message: [ OK ] Stopped logout off

Everyone, I just purchased a new wfi card?that is identified as using lspci as : Broadcom Limited BCM4360 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 03) I have not been able to get it to work Centos 7.4 machine. Some of the centos user posts had indicated the nux repsitory had a Centos 7 kmod- wl, but it is not present when I tried to search or or install it at this time. Has anyone had any

Nice, thanks for sharing. You could probably just drop your CA cert in the filesystem and run a couple of commands to get it imported, rather than having to import the CA in the browsers individually. You could probably deliver it via yum/rpm or better yet, ansible or even some shell script. -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology! Nux! www.nux.ro ----- Original Message -----
