vlc on centos 4.5
by Jerry Geis 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

Has anyone successfully gotten vlc to install on centos 4.X? I saw other posts on using rpms from places but I dont want to go there. I have downloaded from videolan ftp site the following: mpeg2dec libmad libfaad ffmpeg vlc I have configured and installed each package above. When I run vlc (to connect to a linksys wvc200 camera that outputs MP4 video) I get the message main decoder error: no suitable decoder module for fourcc `MP4S'. So I am assuming I dont have something correct yet with vlc. Just wondering if someone else has built vlc and would mind sharing how they did it. Jerry

Looking for a WebDav sync client
by Robert Moskowitz 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

I am looking for a webdav tool much like wget. And it has to maintain timestamps (Cadaver does not, or at least I have not figured out how). There is a whole big WebDav server now of all (almost all) of IEEE 802.11 presentations (not the draft docs) and webdav is the access method....

Managing recompiled packages?
by Niki Kovacs 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

Hi, I'm using Centos 5.0 on my desktop, and I'm very happy with it. One question bothers me. I rebuilt a handful of apps, for example K3B to enable MP3 audio, or libshout and mpd, to enable streaming audio. Now what happens if these get updated? I guess the new version will squash my personal version. Is there a way to prevent these packages from being updated? Or how should I handle these? Cheers, Niki Kovacs

Recommended REPO Setup for Desktop on Cos5
by John Thomas 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

CentOS is simply great. I use it as my main desktop. I use VMWare clients for any "special needs" software. I am struggling a bit with the plethora of repos and looking for some advice. Would you opine with detail on the best repo setup for a desktop CentOS 5? Comments: rpmforge provides fine rpms. kbsingh, google, adobe, kde-redhat, CentOS-Testing , CentOS-fastrack, epel, ATRPMs also provide fine RPMs. epel seems to have some stuff that I have not found on the others (like gnucash), but enabling epel worries me about conflicts with rpmforge et al. I recalling hearing about priorities and protectbase yum plugins. My thinking is someone has mastered these issues and I could copy their setup so I could do a "yum search whatever" a "yum provides whatever", "yum update", etc without having to enable/disable repos or includepkgs/exclude packages in the repo (i.e., "just work"). I realize one size won't fit all, but your recommendations/thoughts are appreciated. -- Sincerely, John Thomas

CentOS5:Printer Won't Work
by Robert Thompson 18 Jul '07

18 Jul '07

I have a HP OfficeJet K80xi "all-in-one" USB printer. When I send a file to the printer from a virtual console using the command : lp "anyfilename", the response is "request ID is HPOJK80-7 (1 file(s)". There is no printer action, no sound, nothing. The printers name is HPOJK80; the -7 is the job number. The command lpstat shows there are a total of 7 jobs in the queue. The command lpq response is "HPOJK80 is ready and printing", and lists the 7 file names. Nothing has ever printed since I switched to CentOS5. The hplip web site (http://hplip.sourceforge.net/) tells me to do "rpm -qa hplip" from a virtual console. The result is "hplip-1.6.7-4.1.e15" (driver model installed). The web site table shows any driver later than 0.9.5 should work. The hplip web site also states that there are 6 "dependencies": xsane, cups-devel, libjpeg-devel, pyqt, pyqt-devel, and net-snmp-devel. Using the find command (find / -name 'filename' -print) results in 2 hits for xane, 0 hits for the others except libjpeg-devel which gives the message "/proc/11268: No such file or directory". My conclusion is there are 5 missing files, probably cups-devel is the most important. Where can I find the missing files? How do I know where to put them? While I am not sure that "system-config-printer" was run correctly, I am going to concentrate on the missing dependencies. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Bob T.
