Sorry for top post, my android BlueMail will not let me insert at the bottom. I have found that tracker-extract seems to trigger a segfault. I note this is not updated in CR, but comes from base. Removal of tracker seems too harsh as it has dependant modules like brasero, evince, grilo, nautilus and totem. Maybe there is an obscure relationship in tracker that need attention. Stumpped. ?Sent

Hi, Our desktop clients are running CentOS 7 with the Xfce desktop from EPEL. The CR repository is enabled. A few days ago I launched an update, which brought in close to 1 GB of packages. I had some weird problems on two clients. One is an old Dell Optiplex 330 with a legacy video card.

The recommended method for undo an update is https://access.redhat.com/solutions/64069, but it's not supported if glibc, kernel, or selinux are changed. I'd give it a try if the system is not critical. Make backups first. Some other people's experience on downgrading a point release: https://access.redhat.com/discussions/2933711 If you couldn't read that article, just search

Hi, I just upgraded one of my CentOS 7 + GNOME desktops from the CR repo. After the upgrade, it seems like all of the icon themes are broken. Missing icons everywhere. Any idea what's going on here ?

Hi, I had the same kind of problem after upgrade with xfce, weird screen artefacts etc I just uninstalled compton and installed it again. Fixed it.

Just wondering, what exactly is supported/suggested: I need a comprehensive desktop search functionality. Not only searching for file names but also for content and meta data. The environment is EL6.8 / Gnome2. I have noticed that "beagle" is not part of the distro anymore. Any suggestions for such requirement? Thanks! LF

Hi, I often have to deal with relatively obsolete hardware in schools, public libraries, small town halls, etc. I still have a handful of CentOS 5.x installations around for these, but I wonder what CentOS 6.x desktop specs are, e. g. the minimum requirements (in terms of CPU and RAM) to reasonably run it. Will a battered first-generation P-IV with 512 MB RAM be sufficient? How much RAM does

Somehow my .config ended up with zero bytes. The only things I can think of happening is looking at it in WineTools, and perhaps failing to install a program. Any ideas? The last time it had something in it was yesterday when I looked at it in WineTools, then this morning it had nothing in it. But I don't remember if it was before or after trying to install something. I just thought that

my first round of trying to compile samba 4.2 from source in an lxc container. Host OS is ubuntu 14.04 lts, and lxc template was the ubuntu template. This is a privileged container. good news, is the container seems to function well. Bad news is missing dependancies. So, in tracking down depenancies, here's what I installed in to the container apt-get install python apt-get install
