NoScript allow scripts globally reversible?
by Michael Hennebry 01 Nov '17

01 Nov '17

I'm running NoScript because otherwise Firefox freezes up a lot. Recently I've had difficulty accessing a site. I suspect the reason is that it uses redirection in a way that frustrates my efforts to give it permission. To test the notion, I'm considering temporarily allowing script globally. How hard is it to reverse? Will I need to redo previous permissions one at a time? -- Michael hennebry(a)web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "Sorry but your password must contain an uppercase letter, a number, a haiku, a gang sign, a heiroglyph, and the blood of a virgin." -- someeecards

Problems with kernel-3.10.0-693.5.2.el7.x86_64
by Gregory P. Ennis 01 Nov '17

Everyone, I have two desktop units with : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700 CPU @ 3.60GHz that do not allow the login screen to appear after the update of : kernel-3.10.0-693.5.2.el7.x86_64 and kernel-3.10.0-693.2.2.el7.x86_64 Both of these units worked properly with kernel.x86_64 3.10.0-514.26.2.el7 I am not sufficiently familiar with grub to know if the problem is related to grub or related to the kernel. I have been able to boot the machines by the use of kernel.x86_64 3.10.0-514.26.2.el7. When using kernel-3.10.0-693 the login screen is blank and the login prompt is missing, however each machine is accessible via the terminal interface, or remotely with ssh. Does anyone have any ideas ? Greg

Maria 10 breaks unixodbc mysql connector
by John Harragin 01 Nov '17

I recently installed mariadb-server 10.1 by adding the following repository: baseurl = http://yum.mariadb.org/10.1/centos7-amd64 ...all was well until we had a power failure and upon rebooting unixodbc was segfaulting. Once I did a yum undo, the mysql odbc driver was functional. I traced it to the following: [root@ec-ast yum.repos.d]# ldd /usr/lib64/libmyodbc5w.so | grep -iE "my|maria" libmysqlclient.so.18 => /usr/lib64/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.18 (0x00007f3dfb34c000) You have new mail in /var/spool/mail/root [root@ec-ast yum.repos.d]# repoquery -l MariaDB-server MariaDB-client MariaDB-commo MariaDB-shared galera boost-program-options jemalloc rsync lsof | grep lib64 | grep libmysqlclient /usr/lib64/libmysqlclient.so /usr/lib64/libmysqlclient.so.18 /usr/lib64/libmysqlclient.so.18.0.0 /usr/lib64/libmysqlclient_r.so /usr/lib64/libmysqlclient_r.so.18 /usr/lib64/libmysqlclient_r.so.18.0.0 ...notice the change in the path (/usr/lib64/mysql/). I could reinstall mariadb-server, add a symlink and it would probably work, but I thought it would be better to post and hopefully the maintainer of whichever package (unixodbc, maria, mysql-connector...) should be addressed, could be alerted to this issue in the event that it could (or should) be fixed on a package level.
