printer frustrations
by mark 26 Nov '19

26 Nov '19

I've got an old HP LaserJet 1018. It's a winprinter. After I bought a new router (to go inside the Verison one), I plugged it directly into my box (ok, via a hub). I run CentOS 6. Before we went on the trip, I could print, I upgraded my system, and this is the first time I'm trying to print... and no joy. I've tried sending the firmware to it via lp -o raw ... -h :9100, and maybe? it worked, but no printing. I've upgraded to the latest foo2jzs driver and .ppd, and nothing. Any ideas? CUPS since to think it can talk to it.... Yes, the system can see the printer.... mark

Hi, I was using yum for years on CentOS servers, and since a few years ago dnf on Fedora desktops. My question is: Is the same yum4 on CentOS 8 that dnf? What should I use? Thanks in advance -- -- Sergio Belkin LPIC-2 Certified - http://www.lpi.org

25 Nov '19

Ok, folks, last call for content for the FOSDEM CentOS Dojo, January 31 in Brussels. https://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/Brussels2020 Note that as of right now, I'm going to have to cancel one of the two rooms for the event, because we don't have enough content. So please submit your proposals about the interesting things you're doing on CentOS, so that we can put together another awesome event.

Re: [CentOS] IBM x3500 M3 and CentOS 7.*
by Mark (Netbook) 24 Nov '19

24 Nov '19

Hello, Please can anyone help with the problem below when trying to install CentOS 7.6 on an IBM x3500 M3 from DVD or USB. CentOS 7.5 installs perfectly with no errors. CentOS 7.6 tries to boot, an error is output briefly and the workstation powers down. CentOS 7.7 displays the error briefly then continues the install with no further errors. I also tried RHEL 7.6 which installs perfectly with no errors. Any ideas? Regards, Mark Woolfson MW Consultancy Ltd Leeds LS18 4LY United Kingdom Tel: +44 113 259 1204 Mob: +44 786 065 2778

Installing Maven with OpenJDK 11, without pulling OpenJDK 1.8
by Mathieu Baudier 23 Nov '19

23 Nov '19

Hello, I am trying to create a container image which will build Java software with Maven and Java 11 (rather focussing on CentOS 8 here). When installing 'maven' with yum, 'java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel' is installed as a dependency. If one then installs 'java-11-openjdk-devel', and use the update-alternatives command for java and javac, everything works fine and Maven uses Java 11 for the build. But I would like to avoid shipping OpenJDK 1.8 with the image, since it would uselessly double its size. An approach would be to install Maven manually, but it feels better to use the provided package. Looking at the spec file, I understand that the 'maven' package requires 'java-devel' without explicitly specifying a version. Is there some way (configuration, yum option, alternative, etc.) to make OpenJDK 11 satisfying this dependency? Could the new modules / app stream approach of CentOS 8 help here? This is of course a more general RPM / yum question, but I suspect that the Java use case is a recurring one, as many of us are currently upgrading from 1.8 to 11. Thanks in advance for hints, or telling me that there is no way to achieve this, Mathieu

Time tracking software
by H 23 Nov '19

23 Nov '19

I am looking for suggestions for open-source time tracking software to run on CentOS. If the data can be stored in my own central database, that is a plus, as is the potential availability of some client that can run on Android. Thank you.
