Incendiary writing designed to create fear and angst. Notwithstanding the FSB aspect of the source: If your own people habitually lie to you about such things in the name of National Security - which seems to have replaced the belief in God in the minds of many; presumably as it serves the same purpose - then where else can you go but to the opposition? The truth will out. It sometime comes through the sewers but it will out. Equation Group are almost certainly creatures of the beltway bandit crowd and if not actually staffed by the U.S.A. government then certainly under contract to them. Probably some combination of the two is the actual case. Given the provenance of the exposé it certainly is not a Russian operation.

C5 : Firefox 38 bug
by Always Learning 13 Jun '15

13 Jun '15

I displayed, as a web page, a list of search results created in PHP, from MySQL. Firefox prevents me looking at the web page's source coding. Right-click, view source, produces this display:- "Document Expired "This document is no longer available. "The requested document is not available in Firefox's cache. " As a security precaution, Firefox does not automatically re-request sensitive documents. " Click Try Again to re-request the document from the website." CTRL-U produces the same message. The headers are:- <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Quick Message - Search Facility</TITLE> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Style-Type" CONTENT="text/css"> <META NAME="lang" CONTENT="en"> <META NAME="dir" CONTENT="ltr"> <LINK HREF="/u00/u00.css" REL="stylesheet" TYPE="text/css"> <LINK HREF="/u00/z00extra.css" REL="stylesheet" TYPE="text/css"> <LINK HREF="/u00/u00tulpen0.png" REL="icon" TYPE="image/png"> <style> .d {float:left; color:#00a86b; width:120px;} </style> </HEAD> Removing the DocType makes no difference.

centos 7 will not install :(
by JD 13 Jun '15

13 Jun '15

Please ... any info on how to proceed??? After I made sure it had the correct sha256sum, and after I burned it to DVD, and and dd'd the DVD back to a temp file and again checked the sha256sum of the temp file, all was OK. Same sha256sum. So, I rebooted the machine and it booted up from the DVD. I got a message that it was not using VNC, Then after that immediately an error came out saying something about xbi...something not working. Machine did not proceed any further. I rebooted agian and agian, same error. The machine is a Dell Latitude E6500, Dual Core 2.8GHz, 8GB RAM, 1TB HD. Any info on this? On my phone, I have an image of the screen when the error is belched out. I have to yet be able to extract it out of the phone. Since I have no OS to run on my machine, I am using the live Knoppix, which has no sense to mount the storage of the android phone; so the I am unable to attach it, nor a way to upload it to a free upload site.

If that says 6.4, and yum update doesn't update to the latest > CentOS 6.6, something *is* broken on your system. 6.4 is from 2013... OK, so I am indeed at 6.6 : # cat /etc/centos-release CentOS release 6.6 (Final) But I would still like to get up to 7, but as I indicated in another post, I cannot use the 7's iso because it crashes immediately during boot. Problem with bringing up X. As I also stated in another post, centos 6.4 had no problems with my old graphics card. So, why is centos 7 crapping out? hello, I haven't followed the complete conversation, sorry. The only reason I can think of is that your system is 32bit?

How to preserve the login session's running apps without hibernation
by jd1008 13 Jun '15

13 Jun '15

When I was running mate on another computer, I would log off or shutdown, and power up and login again and mate would restore all the gui apps in all the workspaces. Gnome does not do that. Also, I do not have a way to upgrade to Centos 7 because 1. graphic installation fails (as I have posted here before). 2. I do not want to do text install because it will clobber my existing partitioning scheme and does not provide for modifying the automatic partitioning scheme.

Many troubles in CentOS 6 since the last update of GLibc-2.12-1.149.el6
by Bernard Lheureux 12 Jun '15

12 Jun '15

Hi all, I would like to know if these troubles affect also other people, for example, I can no longer connect to Sipe (Lync) network by Pidgin since the Glibc has been updated and now I've just discovered that it was no longer possible to take screenshots with gnome-screenshot, I always receive an error message telling: "Unable to save the screenshot to disk: Value for PNG text chunk Software cannot be converted to ISO-8859-1 encoding." -- (°- Bernard Lheureux Gestionnaire des MailingLists ML, TechML, LinuxML //\ http://www.bbsoft4.org/Mailinglists.htm ** MailTo:root@bbsoft4.org v_/_ http://www.bbsoft4.org/ <<<<<< * >>>>>> http://www.portalinux.org/
