Flash player beta
by isdtor 13 Oct '16

13 Oct '16

Has anyone tried the new flash player beta for Linux? http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer.html I can't get it to work on CentOS 6.8, ff 45.3.0-1, all x86_64. ff's pluginreg.dat shows the plugin is [INVALID], which is often a sign of bitness-mismatch, but that's not the case here. $ tail -n 3 pluginreg.dat [INVALID] /usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so:$ 1474541270000:$ $ file /usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, stripped $ strings /usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so | grep FlashPlayer_23 FlashPlayer_23_0_0_179_FlashPlayer $ rpm -q firefox firefox-45.3.0-1.el6.centos.x86_64 $ I have it working on a different Linux system, not CentOS, with ff 48.0.1.

I have CentOS7 32-bit x86 AltArch in a VM. Following advice I found on Google, I tried stuff like "sudo yum install centos-release-scl" and "sudo yum install epel-release". They came back with... No package centos-release-scl available. No package epel-release available. What am I missing? -- Walter Dnes <waltdnes(a)waltdnes.org>

Virtualbox image
by Jerry Geis 11 Oct '16

11 Oct '16

How do you make a Virtualbox image of C7 so that when you EXPORT that image and someone imports it that the values in /etc/fstab will be OK. Example: UUID=13813d49-15b7-48ed-ab0d-da52aa3a9078 / xfs defaults 0 0 UUID=7f25297f-170c-4aee-ad4f-7ccc5867ed25 /home xfs defaults 0 0 /dev/mapper/centos-swap swap swap defaults 0 0 Then the exported, imported image boots its still referencing the first UUID there and it cannot find it so it does not boot. How can I change this so my image runs, and then when I export it and someone imports it that their image runs. ??? Thanks, Jerry

On the download page https://wiki.centos.org/Download it lists: DVD, Minimal, Everything, LiveGNOME, LiveKDE.

Proper setup for major package removals?
by waltdnes＠waltdnes.org 11 Oct '16

11 Oct '16

I've installed CentOS in a QEMU VM for some gcc-compiling work. I've used Gentoo for years, but am a newbie at CentOS. During install, I selected "development" options, which pulled in more than I really need. I don't want or need a heavy desktop environment chewing up part of the 4 gigs allocated to the VM, but I will occasionally need a GUI. What I'd like to do is remove GDM, Gnome DE, Java, Ruby, and a bunch of other stuff. Then install ICEWM. I want to remove GDM, but keep X, so that the machine comes up at the text command line. If/when I need a GUI, I'll type "startx", after setting up ~/.xinitrc. So far, I've made one change to yum.conf, by adding remove_leaf_only=1 I think that my next 2 steps should be to execute... init 3 yum groupremove gnome-desktop Then what? "yum search icewm" does not find anything, and I may still have GDM trying to log me in to a non-existant GNOME. What do I do next? By the way, at startup, I notice a message quickly flash by like... "intel_rapl: no valid rapl domains". What's it about? -- Walter Dnes <waltdnes(a)waltdnes.org>

mcrypt on PHP 5.4 and 5.5
by H 10 Oct '16

10 Oct '16

I have Centos 6.8 running on a VPS and upgraded PHP from 5.3 to 5.4 using scl. Unfortunately it seems mcrypt is not available, neither for 5.4 nor for 5.5. What have other users done about that? Unfortunately I have an application that requires mcrypt.
