i'm sure there's a simple answer to this -- i already understand that newer kernels than the ones shipped with the official release aren't officially supported but there is the elrepo kernel repository here: http://elrepo.org/linux/kernel/el7/x86_64/RPMS/ with a mixture of long-term (lt) and mainline (ml) kernels. i assume that the mainline kernels pretty closely track the latest

I have chromium installed on CentOS 7 and it works fine, I now need to install it on a CentOS 6 workstation. However, it is not available in EPEL as it is for C 7. From what I understand, this is because it is already available in a supplementary channel from RHEL for C 6. Is this the recommended method for installing it on C 6?

Latest chromium-el6 at http://people.centos.org/hughesjr/chromium/6/x86_64/RPMS/ is chromium-28.0.1500.95-213514.x86_64.rpm but latest chromium stable is 29.0.1547.xx wondering if there are any problems building version 29?

Hi, I recently discovered Markdown, and I'm currently using it to write some documentation for CentOS 7. https://github.com/kikinovak/formation-linux For the time being, I'm using my good old Vim editor for writing it. I turned off syntax highlighting, since this produces random results with Markdown. Pages are correctly displayed on Github, but in order to see them, I have to push

does anyone here have pointers or access to courseware that could be used to teach centos (5.4, i believe)? publicly-available, free C/W would, of course, be ideal, but if you have some decent training manuals that you're willing to license on a per-manual basis, i'm still willing to chat. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.

Too much temptation to resist, I don't know which one of us is older but I have a feeling it's a "horse race". Like you, I still have a land line, WiFi is too slow and "WiFi security" seems to be an oxymoronic phrase. Why people text (or IM for that matter) anything other than a one-liner is beyond me. Now for the real issue, what happens when Network Manager

HI all, I set up a PXE server by following the following howto ( http://www.tecmint.com/install-pxe-network-boot-server-in-centos-7/ ) is working but I noticed him running I need the CD in one repository http or nfs. because it is necessary to have everything in ISO image? it is possible to boot an ISO by the network as I do with the CD or DVD? Regards.

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
