similar to: Centos 8 hardware compatibility testing

I have set up a computer that's going to be hand-carried through several airports on the way to its final destination. This is the Lenovo laptop that I asked about earlier, where everything works well except for the touchpad that isn't recognized at all. (For the touchpad I'm just kind of hoping that a future kernel update will make it magically start working; for the time being the

I'm setting up a new Lenovo Ideapad 320 and everything shows up and works fine except for the touchpad. I did have to get into the bios and set Legacy for boot device and boot mode to get Centos 7 to finish installing. The default bios settings would load the Centos 7 Gnome Live image from a usb flash drive and work (except for the touchpad) but when I tried to install to the hard drive it

With Centos 7 and earlier I've been using the Live CD image to test new hardware (laptops etc) for compatibility. That way I can get a desktop up and try the sound and the networking and whatnot without affecting what is already installed on the machine, and then if everything looks good I can just run the installer right from the Live CD image. There's no Live CD image for Centos 8, so

I have a laptop that hangs up on shutdown saying that at-spi-bus-launcher is still running. Since I have no use for at-spi-bus-launcher anyway, I would like to get rid of it, but attempting to remove the at-spi2-core rpm wants to remove 99% of my desktop as well. The only way that I can see to get rid of it is to make /usr/libexec/at-spi-bus-launcher non-executable, but that's a pretty

The currently available fix for Firefox doesn't work with ESR, but there's a temporary fix that works. At least, it's working for me: Go to about:config and set xpinstall.signatures.required to false. The Firefox folks say that a fix for ESR will be coming at some point, but at least this gets things working again in the short term. It's not clear to me if the fixed ESR (when

I've added dia to my repo nux-dextop. BTW LibreOffice Draw can be used as well (with the added bonus that it can also do Visio files AFAIK). -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology!

Hi Frank, Thanks for your prompt reply. The server is in my office. Because I tried a few computers, so it shouldn?t be a problem of Internet connection of the clients. I tried to ping the server, and it can accept all data. Is there a good way to check it? It always worked well for centos 6.6 using the same server and the same internet connections (IP, cable etc). The problem came out while

I use KDE and they need to, quality is lacking, every time I boot up I get to discover where my icons will be located (and this has been going on through at least a couple of recvisions). Locking doesn't help, even making the file I thought contained the positions immutable didn't help. I'm going to have to look at Trinity. Leroy Tennison Network Information/Cyber Security

Hello John & Frank, We have tried both Centos8 and installing kernel-ml-5.8.6-2.el7.elrepo.x86_64.rpm but both options are too "bleeding" edge for our other middleware that still require the Centos 7 3.10.0-1127.18.2.el7.x86_64. Hence the request. Thanks On Fri, Sep 11, 2020 at 4:45 PM Frank Cox <theatre at sasktel.net> wrote: > On Thu, 10 Sep 2020 23:27:14 -0700 >
