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 20 Feb '06

20 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

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.

Nautilus / Desktop Icons
by Henk van Lingen 29 Jul '05

29 Jul '05

Hi, I've a nautilus problem with CentOS 4. It doesn't show the desktop items any more (also after dropping all gnome files/dirs from a users homedir) en the right mouse button menu also doesn't work. Googling around I've found various items about the problem but until now not a clear solution. Some people mention some 'browser mode in nautilus preferences'. But I can't get there. Even if I login with a KDE desktop I can't launch nautilus (nothing happens). Any ideas? I've SELinux enabled, I hope that's not related?

Extending LVM2 logical volumes [ was: Demonizing ... ]

If that is indeed true, why woud LVM be "measurably > better? While I am no LVM expert, it seems that ext2online does what you want. My CentOS4 box here has ext2online included; I have not had a chance to try it out, so I can't comment on how well it works. However, what I have read is that the LVM2 metadata format is more robust and removes many of the limitations of LVM1. In trying to check on this, I looked for specific information on how this was the case, but have not been able to at this point. The ext2/3 filesystem wasn't designed for resizing online, so it's quite nice one can do it at all; but it appears the LVM2 approach is to rely on the e2fsprogs to do the work, so, taking you question literally, no, there is no LVM2 tool to resize; you would do a two-step, resizing the logical volume then resizing the filesystem with e2fsprogs. But, having never had opportunity to do this, I have no direct experience with it. --- So, has anyone found an equivalent (even multiple commands that I could put in a script) for the e2fsadm utility to extend a logical volume? Anyone who has experience with ext2online? -- Collins Head teachers of the world unite: you have nothing to lose but the Start button.

DHCPd Config
by Joao Medeiros 07 Jul '05

07 Jul '05

I've read a number of articles, googled the web for a few months and now attempting at turning my CentOS box into a gateway for the third time. Configured my dhcpd.conf and other related files and all seems to be working, I can have my M$ desktop leasing an ip address and all. The problem is when I want to go out to the internet I keep on getting the Request Timed out error. I'm pretty sure I've followed the manuals to the letter. The hardware is working fine. Any clues or pointers would be very much appreciated. TIA, Joao

mythtv on centos4
by Tony 27 Jun '05

27 Jun '05

Has anyone had any success or failures with installing mythtv onto centos4? Even better, has anyone any prebuilt rpms to do this? Looks to me like centos+mythtv is quite an interesting prospect in the always-on single home server environment. -- Cheers, Tony

CentOS 4 in Virtual PC for Mac 7.0.1
by T'Krin 02 Jun '05

02 Jun '05

Hey all. Has anyone been able to successfully install CentOS 4 in Virtual PC on the Mac? I have tried numerous times in both gui and text install mode w/ and w/o package customization and minimum and everything install. The install dies just when packages are beginning to be installed or very shortly thereafter. I don't get a full screen of errors to share as they pass by the screen too far and end w/ a message saying the installation has died unexpectedly. Any ideas? Thanks, ~Dan
