Gnumeric
by centos＠911networks.com 31 Mar '08

31 Mar '08

Hi, I am trying to install Gnumeric in CentOS 4 and I can't. It complains about quite a few dependencies failing. It suggested installing some postgresql librairies, openldap librairies... I did that, now I still get: dependencies failed: libmdb/libmdbsq/libsqlite/libxbase/libtds. Is there a yum repository that has them or a yum repository for gnumeric? I have tried Dag, he does not, he has libgda, but that has other requirements... -- Thanks

Install Guide for PostFix (with DoveCot, SquirrelMail, MailScanner, ClamAV) on CentOS-4
by Johnny Hughes 21 Feb '06

21 Feb '06

Ok, I have been working (for quite a while) on an install guide for PostFix (with DoveCot, SquirrelMail, MailScanner, ClamAV) on CentOS-4. A full install is part 1 (Postfix / Dovecot / Cyrus-Sasl), Part 3 (SquirrelMail) and Part 4 (MailScanner, Spam Assassin, ClamAV). I am still working on Part 2 (Postfix / Cyrus-Imap / Cyrus-Sasl). It will go with Part 3 and Part 4 (same as above) to get a full install that includes Cyrus-Imapd instead of dovecot ... should be done with this one in the next couple days. So to reiterate, Part 1,3,4 is a full postfix/dovecot install ... it is done and ready to go. Parts 2,3,4 is a full postfix/cyrus-imapd install ... this one is not quite done yet. Part 1 is here: http://www.hughesjr.com/content/view/40/2/Site_News Thanks Johnny Hughes

SD Card Reader not being recognized
by Dave Gutteridge 14 Aug '05

14 Aug '05

I have a USB card reader that handles various card media, like SD cards, Sony Memory Sticks, and two other formats that I can't even remember what they are. I pretty much exclusively use it for SD cards. With Fedora, when I plugged the card reader into the USB port, and then inserted an SD card, it would automatically come up on the desk top. However, this is not the case with CentOS. Nothing comes up. Naturally, I searched Google for information, hoping that maybe it was just a matter of downloading an RPM or something. But I did not come across any information that helped. Is there a setting that I need to activate in order for CentOS to recognize SD Cards and/or the USB card reader? Dave

How to query the package owning the file? (no packahe manger installed)
by Prasad Pillarisetti 04 Aug '05

04 Aug '05

Guys recently I had this question asked in a technical interview. How do I find out the package owning a particular file, when no package managers are installed? I am assuimg SRPMs are used to install the software? Is this actually possible? Install the Linux OS without a package manager? I know "rpm -qf filename" gives the package owning the file. But how to get the package name when I don't have any package manager? Maybe this was a question to rattle me? -- Prasad Pillarisetti "If everything is coming your way, then you are in the wrong lane"

RE: [CentOS] Japanese Language Support?
by kenkensmile＠netscape.net 03 Aug '05

03 Aug '05

Hi, Just install CentOS using Japanese, so you can use Japanese on Gnome. It means that when you are installing CentOS, you must choose Japanese language . When you get on your account, click language and choose Japanese as well before typing your user name and password. You just push Ctrl and space at the same time, so you can type Japanese on Firefox, Mozilla, Openoffice and so on. For example, if you want to type "さよなら", you need to type "SAYONARA" on your English keyboard. If you want to use Chinese characters for Japanese language, push space after typing Japanese, so you can choose Chinese characters. Hope that this helps you.

Gnome Logouts -- are very slow or they hang -- 2nd post
by BRUCE STANLEY 03 Aug '05

03 Aug '05

! I just installed Centos 4.1 (i386) on one of my test drives. When ever I try to logout of a Gnome session, it seems to hang but if I wait about 4-5 minutes it will usually logout, although I have had it hang a couple of times (never logs out). When I do an ALT-TAB-F1, and log in as 'root', I can see the following processes still hanging around after Gnome finally does logout: /usr/libexec/gam_server /usr/bin/ssh_agent -s For every log in session I try, there is a copy of the 'ssh_agent' still hanging around after Gnome finally logs out. Could this be what's causing the problem? KDE logins will also cause these two programs to hang aroud, but it will usually logout in a timely fashion. Any help would be appreciated.

Business software for Linux
by William Warren 02 Aug '05

02 Aug '05

I am hoping to find a inventory management program suitable for something like a bookstore or other 1-5 person smb. The software would need to be able to accept inputs from wireless handheld scanning devices for entry into the system. It must also work with their windows based PoS computer. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.

bash file direct execution
by dan1 02 Aug '05

02 Aug '05

Hi all. I have a little strange problem. I created a file called 'test.sh' in the root directory containing: #!/bin/sh echo test When I execute it with '/test.sh' there is no output. When I source it by executing it with '. /test.sh' the output comes ok. When I move it to '/root' and execute it with '/root/test.sh' then it works perfectly. When I move it to '/home' and execute it with '/home/test.sh' there is no output. Could someone tell me what I shoud do to make the script run without sourcing it with '.' ? This problem happens only on one CentOS 4 box I have, on the others it works perfectly. What am I doing wrong ? The permissions are 755 on the file itself, and I execute them logged as root. Thanks, Daniel
