CentOS 5 centosplus kernel + kmod-gfs
by James Fidell 20 Oct '07

20 Oct '07

On CentOS 5, the current centosplus kernel doesn't want to play with the kmod-gfs package (because kmod-gfs wants the stock kernel): # yum install kmod-gfs gives me: Transaction Check Error: package kernel-2.6.18-8.1.14.el5.centos.plus (which is newer than kernel-2.6.18-8.1.14.el5) is already installed Should it work, or is there a separate centosplus build that I've not found, or do I need to roll my own?

RE: [CentOS] DocX support in OpenOffice

It is not only a problem for Linux users. Office 2003/XP/2000 etc can not read these files either. I know many Windows only shops who are pretty annoyed with the upgrade churn Microsoft force on them. ~~~~~~ I concur. This change is a problem for both camps; Open Source users and older MS Office users. Very annoying. ~James

extras and vlc
by Jerry Geis 19 Oct '07

19 Oct '07

What are the chances that a package such as vlc from http://videolan.org/vlc would become included in extras? so a yum install vlc would work. Thanks, Jerry

mdadm exim mysql
by Johnn Tan 19 Oct '07

19 Oct '07

I installed a CentOS-5 core OS (using --nobase in my kickstart). For some reason, it included mysql-5.0.22. When I do "yum remove mysql", it says it will also remove exim and mdadm for dependencies. I don't care that exim will be removed, but I need mdadm as I'm doing software RAID. But why are these even related? When I do: rpm -q --requires mysql neither exim or mdadm is listed as being a requirement. johnn

disabling php-cli
by Mark Weaver 19 Oct '07

19 Oct '07

Hi All, Don't know if this has been covered already, but I'd like to know if there's a way to disable one of the features in php; php-cli. I've done some googling and searching through the archives but haven't found anything. The php manpage doesn't mentioned anything, nor have I seen anything on the php site in regards to this. (hoping it's not something as simple as removing the php-cli rpm, although that just might break a dependency... So, if someone knows how to do this or knows of some information they could point me to I'd appreciate it. thanks, -- Mark "Drunkenness is not an excuse for stupidity. If you're stupid when you're sober then that's one thing, but if you're sober when you're stupid, then you're just plain stupid!" ============================================== Powered by CentOS5 (RHEL5)

You could use zcat. But if you really want to use less to *automatically* unzip a .gz file, then you can create a less preprocessor: Use vi to create /usr/local/bin/lesspipe.sh and type in the following text: #!/bin/bash case "$1" in *.Z) uncompress -c $1 2>/dev/null ;; *.gz) gunzip -c $1 2>/dev/null ;; esac Make the lesspipe.sh file executable ('chmod +x /usr/local/bin/lesspipe.sh') and then create a LESSOPEN environment variable to make less use it: export LESSOPEN="|/usr/local/bin/lesspipe.sh %s" Test that this works, by cd'ing to /usr/doc/HOWTO, and if all is OK, add the export line to /etc//bashrc so that it takes permanent effect. Obviously, the lesspipe.sh script can be extended to do other things. All this is basically in the less man page, of course.
