Hi all, For those of you that have been using the ext4 technology preview on CentOS 5.5, how has it panned out? Does it perform as expected?

Package updates for 5.4?
by Mitch Patenaude 27 Jan '11

27 Jan '11

We're running a large cluster, and are leery of upgrading them all to 5.5, but would like to find the latest security patches. Is there a repo for this? I can't seem to find a 5.4 specific update repo with anything since last March. Is 5.4 EOL'd? Thanks, -- Mitch

How to disable screen locking system-wide?
by Bob Eastbrook 26 Jan '11

26 Jan '11

By default, CentOS v5 requires a user's password when the system wakes up from the screensaver. This can be disabled by each user, but how can I disable this system-wide? Many of my users forget to do this, which results in workstations being locked up. Bob

The problem occurred after I downloaded and compiled the package for enabling wireless on the laptop from the site ' www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php' which I got to know from the site 'wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless/Broadcom'
