youtube-dl doesn't work for me after a recent update. I do not use it often, so do not know whether the update matters. It gives the error message: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/youtube-dl", line 6, in <module> from pkg_resources import load_entry_point ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources' I've tried reinstalling

For some reason, I no longer seem to get images from www.imdb.com , i.e. Internet Movie DataBase. The effect is really weird. I get from Firefox, Konqueror and Chromium. I'm running Centos 7. It's been happening for a few months now, so I really cannot tell what changed that mioght have caused it. How do I debug and fix this? Chromium still asks me for passwords a lot. I expect that is a

I'm running centos 7. Firefox spends so much time in th D state that I am trying konqueror. Displaying mathematics on wikipedia, e.g. Remez algorithm seems to be a no go. Wikipedia seems to use tex, so I installed texlive and texlive-* . Firefox hadn't needed it and it did not seem to help konqueror. My guess is that there is a bit somewhere that I need to flip, but I have no idea where it

I've got a Brother HL-L2360D series printer connected to Centos 7. CUPS lists it as Generic PCL6/PCL Printer - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.9 . When I tell it to print a pdf file, it prints at most the first page. After powering the thing off and turning it on again, it printed page 3 of pages 3-6 . On trying it again, the thing claimed it was receiving data and printed page 3 of pages 3-6 again.

How do I download pictures from a dumb phone? I have a Samsung phone I bought at a Walmart. According the the front, it worships Verizon. Beyond that, I'm not at all sure what kind. If I use a real USB connector to connect it to my PC, CentOS sees it as a character special device. What, if anything, I can do with that device, I do not know. I've not found any settings related to USB. In

All too often, my ssh session will freeze. I'm fairly certain the problem is at my end. None of the tilde commands work. In particular, ~# and ~. are nonfunctional. I can write to ssh's terminal window from another terminal window. If I kill the ssh process, I can ssh in again. The next time it happens, I will try another ssh session without killing the first one. dmesg did not show me

I'm running CentOS 6. The audio goes in and out a lot. With vlc, I can sometimes get the audio back by turning the audio track off and on again. I have similar issues with a/v embedded in html.

Has anyone gotten lapack to work on centos 7? If so, how? Most recently, I installed lapace-devel and let yum bring in what it wanted.

I've been trying to move from Centos 7 to fedora. My monitor is 1440x900, but fedora only believes it's 640x480. Grrrr. xrandr has not helped. I've been trying to write X configuration files to tell fedora 1440x900, but no joy. Is there a way to get X to tell me its current beliefs, very preferably in configuration file format? According to the log file on Centos, everything was

I've been struggling to get Firefox to render text in a sans-serif font. So far, I've only been able to do that by setting the default font as sans-serif. DejaVu Sans Mono and DajaVu Sans are the only other listed fonts that I'm reasonalbly sure are sans-serif. Helvetica and Arial are not there. sans-serif does work on Konqueror. Does anyone know how to affect the font-family on

I have an HP Photosmart C3180 All-in-one. As I haven't had any need for color lately, when I last replaced ink, I only replaced the black cartridge. It didn't work, even when printing grayscale-only images, even when telling print-set-up grayscale-only. Is there a way to tell my printer to use only the black ink cartridge. My test image is a handmade postscript file that only use setgray

I'll try it. My expectation is that it will work just fine *once it starts*. That is my experience with downloading using a browser. In the case of wget, the

My video problems mentioned in a previous thread are gone, though I do not know why. Now my problem is that whenever I have a browser open and an internet connection, my Centos 7 slows to a crawl. Chromium seems to be the least bad. Sometimes it slows to the point that I cannot even move the mouse. Even switching between virtual terminals takes a while sometimes. When I get there, top generally
