similar to: Suggestion for "how to" section: easy way to install the JDK?

Hi People I have been following the instructions here http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/JavaOnCentOS but trying to modify them for jdk-6u7-linux-amd64.rpm but there doesn't see to be a compatible java-1.6.0-sun-compat-*.rpm. Does one exist ? If not can anyone point me to some documentation on how I can manually set up things so alternatives will work allowing multiple Java versions.

Hi all, in respect of the "recent" CentOS forum thread, (found here https://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?viewmode=flat&topic_id=28126&forum=38) I wrote a "Sun/Oracle Java Installation Manual for CentOS 5" - posted on my Wiki Profile page, http://wiki.centos.org/MilosBlazevic?action=show and would like update the Java Wiki page with this content. Of

Greetings. I am planning on getting my RHCE in the near future. I thinking I should wait until 6 comes out before proceeding. That being said, I don't want to wait past the end of this year. That being said, do you all have any information about how long it takes for their training platform to catch up to their release? Which is to say, if RHES 6 is released on day 1, at what point

Hello everyone! In a CentOS forum thread[1], I was asked by forum member "AlanJBartlett" if I would like to take on the care and feeding of the latter (section 3?) part of the "JavaOnCentOS" article. Initially, I would like to correct the Sun JDK 1.6 part, which instructs readers to download the wrong Sun JDK file (there are two, one .bin and one rpm.bin) for the actual

Hi, As a consequence of rolling out CR updates on Latitude E7470 (Skylake chipset), X would no longer start until I rolled back all of the xorg-\* packages. And to be more precise, looks like the culprit is xorg-x11-drv-intel: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1445583 as the CR package release version matches the one mentioned in Comment #2, in the regression context.

Hi all, I think that every wiki page should have a name(s) of the author/maintainer of that page like in: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/JavaOnCentOS The name that appears at the bottom is not adequate because it could be someone who has just corrected a typo. In fact, that entry can be eliminated once the contact info has been given on the page. The whole purpose of this is of course to make

Since 5.5 is now out from Red Hat and most likely our amazing CentOS team has already jumped on that, is there any word on Release 6? IIRC it's already a year out of date (base was supposed to be Fedora 10), so I have to wonder. I didn't see anything jump out at me on the Red Hat site, so - anyone? Thanks. mhr

Is anyone successfully using hplip under CentOS? When I try to print on my HP Officejet J4580 I always get the error ---------------------------------- Printer Filter "foomatic-rip-hplip" for printer "oj" not available: No such file or directory ---------------------------------- What I find puzzling is that I have googled for this, and it appears there has been the same

I have some software that says it requires JRE 8.1 or higher. If I go to http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre8-downloads-2133155.html and install jre-8u144-linux-x64.rpm I get jrel.8.0_144. Anyone know where I can get 8.1?

Hello everyone, The topic of whether or not LLVM allows for infinite loops has come up a lot recently (several times this week already). Regarding motivation, there are two important facts: 1. Some languages, such as Java, have well-defined infinite loops. See: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se7/html/jls-17.html#jls-17.4.9 and:

Hello David, In brief, I've solved this problem on my Dell Inspiron 1525 (with Broadcom 4312 wireless card), so I figured letting You know would be nice, 'cause it didn't seem like the issue is resolved. Visit this link: http://jomcode.com/fadhil/?p=59 and in addition check out the comment on the same page by Andre Kiepe to have the modules load on boot. Best Regards, Milos.

Hi Phillip, I've been looking into the Capture Tracking Improvements and I was wondering if there was any research/documentation that you know of that I could use as background reading? Many thanks, Scott

Hi, since I, just hours ago, followed http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/JavaOnCentOS (Sun's JDK) I thought I'd confirm and update the "A less simple approach" with information that's a bit newer than jdk 1.4. Registered WIKI account: MikaelFridh Furthermore, I'd like to ask you if anyone know what was meant by the comment on the wiki: > *This HowTo is not complete
