sound oddity on C6
by Fred Smith 31 Dec '14

31 Dec '14

I just encountered an oddity... it may have been this way for millennia :) but somehow I've never noticed it before... say I'm using X (which is pretty normal these days) and I have VLC playing a "radio" station. I do CTRL-ALT-Fx to switch to a text console THAT HAS NO ONE LOGGED IN on it, and voila: no sound! as soon as I log in, the audio returns. what gives here? -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex(a)fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ----------------------------- "For the word of God is living and active.

Documentation for upstart
by Robert Nichols 31 Dec '14

31 Dec '14

Is there any documentation for the upstart-0.6.5 used in CentOS 6? All I can find online is for much newer versions. -- Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address. Do NOT delete it.

There is no man page for qemu.conf, so all I can go by is the comments in the file. There are NAT routers in front of all of this. Bill Gee

The idea of incremental feature enhancement that you introduced is at once orthogonal to my original point and yet forms an ironic counterpoint that highlights the problem. The issue of data integrity is a separate matter entirely. I raised the issues of needless incompatibility and the avoidable costs of retraining and re-implementation of existing, satisfactory, solutions. You reply with a comment extolling incremental featurism. I am all in favour of incrementalism in software development. The problem being that RedHat does not do that. Instead RedHat freezes the product two years before release and then sets about creating a new, equivalent, but significantly different, replacement that you are forced to accept every seven years. In fact, the freeze, release, support and deprecate schedule that RedHat embraces as a corporate policy bears more than a passing similarity to the 'waterfall' process you, evidently prematurely, consigned to the grave. If RedHat actually adopted incremental rollout of new features to their distribution I would be most happy because, incremental rollouts are NOT SUPPOSED TO BREAK ANYTHING ALREADY IN PRODUCTION. And that condition is most certainly not met in every case of RHELx+1 I have dealt with. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

I understand that that's a "RHEL thing" but does anyone here have any insight to what this will mean. Will applications have to rebuilt? Or what other implications are there? Thanks, Dave

can't enable selinux CentOS 6.5
by Tim Dunphy 30 Dec '14

30 Dec '14

Hey guys, For some reason I can't seem to enable SELinux on this one host. Here's my SELinux config file: [root@beta-new:~] #cat /etc/sysconfig/selinux # This file controls the state of SELinux on the system. # SELINUX= can take one of these three values: # enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced. # permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing. # disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded. SELINUX=enforcing # SELINUXTYPE= can take one of these two values: # targeted - Targeted processes are protected, # mls - Multi Level Security protection. SELINUXTYPE=targeted And when I check if it's enabled this is what I get: [root@beta-new:~] #getenforce Disabled But when I go to set SELinux to enabled, even with the config file set as you see it above, I get this result: [root@beta-new:~] #setenforce 1 setenforce: SELinux is disabled And nothing I can do enables it on this host. So how, can I solve this problem? I would definitely appreciate any advice you may have. Thanks Tim -- GPG me!! gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys F186197B

where to get python-dbus?
by ken 30 Dec '14

30 Dec '14

When trying to use some third-party software (from HP written in python), it says "python-dbus not installed". Yet, there's $ rpm -q dbus-python dbus-python-0.70-9.el5_4 Are there really two such distinct libraries...? or is this a coding error? (Obviously I'm no python coder.) $ cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5.11 (Final) tnx

Develop ineo 25e printer and CUPS
by Mihamina Rakotomandimby 30 Dec '14

30 Dec '14

Hi all, I have a Develop ineo 25e printer, and want to set it up with CUPS. I connect to http://localhost:631/ and add the printer, with uploading the PPD available here: http://www.develop.eu/en/products/office-products/colour/ineo-25/downloads.… (English, Linux, version 1.1 dated 2012) The printer is network connected, and the connection is socket://192.168.129.100 job-sheets=none, none media=iso_a4_210x297mm sides=one-sided I tried several combinations, with or without the PPD, socket:// or ipp://,... no way: The test page prints OK, but any other page is a kind of source code I could not define. Would you know what option could save me? Thanks.
