Extending schema on Centos DS
by Chris Taylor 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

I am running CentOS DS server (version 8.1.0) in a mixed master setup. I am looking for the best way to extend the schema without breaking replication? I was successfully able to extend the schema on my two servers manually but replication broke after a restart of dirsrv. [03/Dec/2012:11:04:17 -0400] NSMMReplicationPlugin - agmt="cn=web-ldap02" (web-ldap02:389): Unable to acquire replica: there is no replicated area "dc=eastlink,dc=ca" on the consumer server. Replication is aborting. [03/Dec/2012:11:04:17 -0400] NSMMReplicationPlugin - agmt="cn=web-ldap02" (web-ldap02:389): Incremental update failed and requires administrator action [03/Dec/2012:11:04:17 -0400] NSMMReplicationPlugin - agmt="cn=web-ldap02-NetscapeRoot" (web-ldap02:389): Unable to acquire replica: there is no replicated area "o=netscaperoot" on the consumer server. Replication is aborting. What is the correct way to extend the schema on a MMR setup, I haven't been able to find much on the subject? Thanks, Chris

XFCE4 group missing on Centos 5.x?
by Keith Roberts 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

I had XFCE group installed and working on C5.8 32 bit. I have done a fresh installation using the C 5.5 DVD. I cannot seem to find the XFCE group now. Has this been removed from Centos 5.x ?

matplotlib pygtk version problem
by tacolijst list 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

Hello, Anybody a solution for the following problem: the matplotlib library for Python in Centos 6.3 crashes my application because of a deprecated PyGtk2 version. Can be easily reproduced: installation of python 2.6.6 with matplotlib Type in the python shell: from pylab import plot plot([0,1],[0,1]) Error: /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtk.py:621: DeprecationWarning: Use the new widget gtk.Tooltip self.tooltips = gtk.Tooltips() self.tooltips = gtk.Tooltips() Fatal Python error: GC object already tracked Aborted (core dumped) Looks like it has to do with the ridiculous old PyGtk version 2.16 which should be >2.2 for matplotlib any solutions?

CentOS 6.3 - KDE login screen configuration problems
by John Horne 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

Hello, We generally use CentOS for some servers, and so do not use a GUI interface. However, I have recently installed CentOS 6.3 onto a PC with KDE. I am familiar with KDE as I use it with Fedora for my work PC. The problem is that we would like to configure the login screen, so that it does not show the user list, that it does not allow the shutdown or reboot commands (from the login screen), and if possible to remove the 30 second confirmation timer that occurs when logout (via 'leave') is selected. I have gone into the 'System settings->Advanced->Login screen', and disabled both local and remote shutdowns and reboots. I have also disabled the showing of the user list, and disabled logout confirmations. However, none of this has had any effect. The login screen remains the same - showing the userlist and shutdown/reboot commands, and logging out still shows the 30 second confirmation timer. I have compared the /etc/kde/kdm/kdmrc file from the CentOS PC to my Fedora PC and they are similar. (I make the same changes to my work PC, and these take effect.) Anyone any ideas about this? Thanks, John. -- John Horne Tel: +44 (0)1752 587287 Plymouth University, UK Fax: +44 (0)1752 587001

Just create the file /etc/sysconfig/desktop and put in it: DESKTOP=KDM I believe it's DESKTOP - you can dbl check /etc/X11/prefdm Sent from my phoneMike Watson <mikew(a)crucis.net> wrote:The last reply to this subject said to modify /etc/sysconfig/desktop to change GDM to KDM.

I've not been able to find any method to enable KDE login in 6.3. The method mentioned in the earlier reply was for CentOS 5, not 6.

Possible repo polllution
by Tony Molloy 01 Dec '12

01 Dec '12

Hi, I've just been checking my local copy of the CentOS repos. I found 200+ i386/i686 packages in both the updates/5/RPMS and updates/6/Packages directories. I checked with my rsync site ( ftp.heanet.ie ) and the equivalent UK site ( ftp.mirrorservice.org ) and they both carried these packages also. Is this a case a repo pollution, it can't be necessary to have i386 packages in the x86_64 updates. Just checking before I delete these packages. Thanks. Tony

Eventually got it installed on my older Fujitso/Siemenns laptop. The DVD1 did see the card but refused to activate. Yes I have the time but not the know-how to rewrite "bad" software. Centos software not as user friendly as I expected. Will now move on. Now busy downloading Fedora 18 Beta. Yesterday got a Linux Mag with a DVD containing Mint 13 KDE, Bohdi 2, Pear 5. Saw on the mailing list that Debian wheezy Beta4 now available. Will download and test. Have plenty to keep me busy. Thankyou for your time to let me have a look see. Regards JohanS.

libreoffice
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 01 Dec '12

01 Dec '12

CentOS 6.3, libreoffice-core-3.4.5.2-16.1.el6_3.x86_64, running kde I had a couple of documents up. From a terminal window, I ran soffice to look at a document I'd just received in an email*. Looked at it. Killed the soffice session... and the other docs closed, and libreoffice shut down. Anyone else seen something like this? mark * For extra measure, I know that I've put *.docx in system-settings->file-associations->applications, yet if I try to open it with a click from t-bird, it tells me it has no clue how to open it. What have I missed...?
