CentOS7 sometimes don't detect NIC after reboot
by Miroslav Geisselreiter 20 Nov '19

20 Nov '19

I have brand new PC with this components: CPU Intel® Pentium G5400, LGA1151 motherboard ASUS PRIME B360M-C 16 GB RAM HDD 2x ADATA SSD 256GB XPG GAMMIX S11, PCIe Gen3x4 M.2 2280 (RAID1) NIC Intel X550-T1 Ethernet Converged Network Adapter I installed CentOS 7 and two NICs were detected: eno1 (on motherboard) enp1s0 (Intel X550-T1) When I restart the machine sometimes enp1s0 is missing. It is not detected during boot. It looks like NIC card is not installed / not present. After next reboot everything is fine and I do not see any problems with NIC card. How can I avoid this problem with missing NIC? Can you help me, please? Miroslav Geisselreiter

Mirroring two screens for all users?
by James Pearson 20 Nov '19

20 Nov '19

We would like to have one workstation (CentOS7 with Gnome3) set up that has mirrored/cloned screens for all users that may login The workstation is using an Nvidia (proprietary) driver for the graphics card. We have set up xorg to use cloned screens, but gdm/Gnome3 appears to ignore these setting and only use what is set in ~/.config/monitors.xml We've set up /var/lib/gdm/.config/monitors.xml with mirrored/cloned settings for the login screen, but when a user logs in, the display switches to spanning both screens Is there any way we can force all user logins to use cloned displays on this one workstation (but not affect any settings they may use on other workstations - all users has NFS mounted home directories) ? Thanks James Pearson

Virtualizing on CentOS 8
by Jerry Geis 19 Nov '19

19 Nov '19

I am trying to get going with CentOS 8. In the past I would run qemu-system-x86_64 -hda myfile.img get a console and off we go. I dont with to use virt-manager and the gui and all - I just wish to have a similar command line to boot up and run my img. Is there something like that I'm not finding ? I have found virsh - but I dont see how to make it run with an image file from the command line. Perhaps I'm missing something. Thanks, Jerry

Re: [CentOS] Firefox 68 jnlp files
by Clark, Patti 18 Nov '19

18 Nov '19

icedtea-web package included with the distros is the plugin that handles javaws for firefox for both RHEL/CentOS 6 and 7 and openjdk. I have yet to find an app that cannot use openjdk instead of oracle java. It may be a little less streamlined, but it's functional. Ignore/cancel any pop ups that talk about updating java. If I missed this answer, I apologize as I receive the digests.

If it is the same on CentOS6, then you might be able to set up a suitable .desktop file (e.g. in /usr/share/applications/ or similar) to do what you want ... No idea if this is of any help James Pearson

40_custom be the default option
by Jerry Geis 18 Nov '19

18 Nov '19

Hi All - I have my 40_custom file setup. What is a good way to make that the default boot option ? I'd rather not count menu option lines and change GRUB_DEFAULT to that - as I am doing this remote. Thanks Jerry

I'm not looking for a 'per-script' solution. Logging when a job starts is performed by crond, so logging when it ends should also be done by crond. Despite the article I mentioned being from 2011, it seems that Debian 10 still supports the logging of when cron jobs end. Looking into this further it seems that Debian uses anacron, and then applies a patch which provides the '-L' option. I have raised this with the cronie project on github to try and see why this feature has not been implemented. (It may well be that there are good reasons for it having not happened.) A very quick look at the cronie code seems to indicate it may be possible to implement.
