time stray on the latest centos release: 2.6.9-11.EL
by Blair Lowe 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

Hi, The clock on my laptop seems to be straying dramatically from the real time even if I turn off ntpd. Could it be the clock applet itself? After I run rdate with ntpd off, it starts to stray right away. This started in the last two weeks after doing many updates. Has anyone else seen this, or even fixed it? Thanks in advance, Blair.

wireshark for EL2.1AS
by John Newbigin 31 Jul '06

31 Jul '06

Last week, a new package appeared in the updated for EL2.1AS. wireshark-0.99.2-AS21.1.src.rpm I can't find any kind of announcement from RedHat and as far as I can tell, it has never been part of EL2.1 before. Can anyone confirm what it's status it, and if it should be part of CentOS-2. Thanks John. -- John Newbigin Computer Systems Officer Faculty of Information and Communication Technologies Swinburne University of Technology Melbourne, Australia http://www.ict.swin.edu.au/staff/jnewbigin

php updates to 5.1.4 for x86 and x86_64
by Jim Perrin 24 Jul '06

24 Jul '06

Php has been updated once again in the dev.centos.org testing repository. The current version there is now php 5.1.4, and has a couple new features including sqlite support, some bug fixes and the like. Please take some time to test it out and report any issues to http://bugs.centos.org If it works well, report that too as it will help us get a more recent php5 package into centosplus. -- During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.

So nothing on that is going to change. Secondly, Feel free to evaluate what SMEserver are doing w.r.t installer and submit patches for the ServerCD. Also, moving this conversation to the CentOS Developers mailing list, if anyone is interested in following this - subscribe there.
