New laptop recomendation
by Tony Molloy 24 Dec '16

24 Dec '16

Hi, I'm recently retired from my university job. I am looking for a laptop to run CentOS 6/7. My university was a traditional Dell site so I've used Latitude laptops for years, currently E6500/E6510. Anybody got any experience of running CentOS on the newer Dell Latitudes E5000 or E7000. These are not certified according to Redhats' Hardware Guide. Alternatively Precision Workstations would do. These can be supplied with Ubuntu installed so they run Linux. Thanks, Tony -- Linux nogs.tonyshome.ie 2.6.32-642.11.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Nov 18 19:25:05 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Alternative to cPanel
by FrancisM 24 Dec '16

24 Dec '16

Dear All, Im looking for alternative for cPanel and somehow I read that the 'cwp control web panel' (http://centos-webpanel.com) and Sentora ( http://www.sentora.ga) is the good alternative for cPanel. Is there someone using this application and what can you tell about or recommend. Thank you all.

firefox-45.6.0-1.el7.centos.x86_64 crashing... unusable
by ken 21 Dec '16

21 Dec '16

Last night installed the latest, firefox-45.6.0-1.el7.centos.x86_64. Fired it up this morning and within the first hour it's crashed three times. That comes to it being usable for about five minutes before it crashes. Anyone else getting this?

OT: Blank mails from this list
by Sorin Srbu 21 Dec '16

21 Dec '16

Hi all, I apologise for this off-topic question, but wanted to hear from a third-party as well. Recently, like the last week or so, I've started getting blank emails from this list. Blank as in no message text is visible in the email. If I do a ctrl-A however, something does get marked. Evidently there is a message, just not visible. This particular list is the only one I've noticed this problem with. I use Outlook 2013 32b on Win7 x64. Our work mail server at work is Exchange. Has anybody else seen this, or is just me? -- BW, Sorin ----------------------------------------------------------- # Sorin Srbu, Sysadmin # Uppsala University # Dept of Medicinal Chemistry # Div of Org Pharm Chem # Box 574 # SE-75123 Uppsala # Sweden # # Phone: +46 (0)18-4714482 # Visit: BMC, Husargatan 3, D5:512b # Web: http://www.orgfarm.uu.se ----------------------------------------------------------- # O< ASCII ribbon campaign - Against html E-mail # http://tinyurl.com/ascii-ribbon-campaign # # This message was not sent from an iProduct! # # Please consider the environment before printing this email. # Join the campaign at http://thinkBeforePrinting.org # # MotD follows: A ship in the harbor is safe, but that is not what ships were built for.
