Centos 8 Mate?
by Frank Cox 28 Oct '19

28 Oct '19

Without wanting to sound too pushy, I'm wondering if there is any update on the status of Mate now that Centos 8 has been released? I would love to jump on C8 and start playing with it, but the lack of Mate is kind of a showstopper for me at the moment. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com

I think you need to give a lot more explanation on what is going on because I (at least) have no idea how you are using a non-shipped text editor . Usually if a tool is not giving similar results... I usually start by setting up a new account and unset all SHELL variables in said account. I then see if the problem occurs. If it doesn't, I make changes one by one from the other shells variables to see if it does. [Well I probably do the Wise Old Owl from the tootsy pop commercial.. once I hit three I start moving files until I get it.. sometimes it turns out that it is some weird config setting I didn't know in a file I didn't think would affect things.] I am going to expect that TERM=DUMB might be the problem.. but not sure. > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS(a)centos.org > https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos -- Stephen J Smoogen.

HW update. Fedora 30 to Centos?
by Dave Pawson 26 Oct '19

26 Oct '19

Due hardware update. Many years on Fedora, would like to swap out to AMD motherboard( x570) and graphics (RX480) I'm led to believe that Fedora Linux is too 'new' for Centos. Question for those with experience of both, what will I miss on Centos wrt Fedora? Not all that bothered about being 'up to the minute', and after 20+ Fedora installs it does get to be a drag... Has anyone here any 'real' drawbacks please? I'm not a power user, not a games player, just fancy a change to AMD hardware regards -- Dave Pawson XSLT XSL-FO FAQ. Docbook FAQ.

CentOS 8 and DELL 7540 Intel AX200 WIFI
by David Summers 26 Oct '19

26 Oct '19

Hello all, I recently bought a brand new Dell Precision 7540 laptop. Before buying I checked the specifications from the RedHat hardware list and they said that it was "fully RedHat 8 Certified" and listed all the hardware that was "certified" to work with that laptop. https://access.redhat.com/ecosystem/hardware/3979771 I have had good results the last few years with Dell and CentOS, all the equipment has worked fine. However, this time, I got the laptop, installed CentOS 8, and the built-in ethernet port works fine but the Intel AX200 Wifi is not recognized and doesn't show up, so I can't use WiFi, but everything else seems to be working fine. I verified that it *does* work under Windows 10, so the hardware is there and works fine, it just is not recognized and configured under CentOS 8. I called Dell Tech Support and they said "since you didn't buy RedHat 8 from us then we can't help you". Is this just a temporary problem that an update will soon solve or is this something that needs to be brought to the attention of RedHat? Should I file a bug report with bugzilla.redhat.com or is there something I'm not doing or need to do correctly to get it to work? Or is there some package I'm missing that will enable it? I was a bit flabergasted because I've gone for so many years without having to do anything special, it all "Just Works (TM)" on my previous computers. For technical details, here is what I get when I run "lspci -nn": 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation Device [8086:3e20] (rev 0d) 00:01.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v5/E3-1500 v5/6th Gen Core Processor PCIe Controller (x16) [8086:1901] (rev 0d) 00:04.0 Signal processing controller [1180]: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v5/E3-1500 v5/6th Gen Core Processor Thermal Subsystem [8086:1903] (rev 0d) 00:08.0 System peripheral [0880]: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v5/v6 / E3-1500 v5 / 6th/7th Gen Core Processor Gaussian Mixture Model [8086:1911] 00:12.0 Signal processing controller [1180]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH Thermal Controller [8086:a379] (rev 10) 00:14.0 USB controller [0c03]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH USB 3.1 xHCI Host Controller [8086:a36d] (rev 10) 00:14.2 RAM memory [0500]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH Shared SRAM [8086:a36f] (rev 10) 00:15.0 Serial bus controller [0c80]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH Serial IO I2C Controller #0 [8086:a368] (rev 10) 00:15.1 Serial bus controller [0c80]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH Serial IO I2C Controller #1 [8086:a369] (rev 10) 00:17.0 SATA controller [0106]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake Mobile PCH SATA AHCI Controller [8086:a353] (rev 10) 00:1b.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH PCI Express Root Port #17 [8086:a340] (rev f0) 00:1b.4 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH PCI Express Root Port #21 [8086:a32c] (rev f0) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH PCI Express Root Port #1 [8086:a338] (rev f0) 00:1c.5 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH PCI Express Root Port #6 [8086:a33d] (rev f0) 00:1c.6 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH PCI Express Root Port #7 [8086:a33e] (rev f0) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge [0601]: Intel Corporation Device [8086:a30e] (rev 10) 00:1f.3 Audio device [0403]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH cAVS [8086:a348] (rev 10) 00:1f.4 SMBus [0c05]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH SMBus Controller [8086:a323] (rev 10) 00:1f.5 Serial bus controller [0c80]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake PCH SPI Controller [8086:a324] (rev 10) 00:1f.6 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection (7) I219-LM [8086:15bb] (rev 10) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation Device [10de:1f36] (rev a1) 01:00.1 Audio device [0403]: NVIDIA Corporation TU106 High Definition Audio Controller [10de:10f9] (rev a1) 01:00.2 USB controller [0c03]: NVIDIA Corporation TU106 USB 3.1 Host Controller [10de:1ada] (rev a1) 01:00.3 Serial bus controller [0c80]: NVIDIA Corporation TU106 USB Type-C Port Policy Controller [10de:1adb] (rev a1) 02:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller [0108]: Samsung Electronics Co Ltd NVMe SSD Controller SM981/PM981 [144d:a808] 03:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller [0108]: Samsung Electronics Co Ltd NVMe SSD Controller SM981/PM981 [144d:a808] 04:00.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation JHL7540 Thunderbolt 3 Bridge [Titan Ridge 4C 2018] [8086:15ea] (rev 06) 05:00.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation JHL7540 Thunderbolt 3 Bridge [Titan Ridge 4C 2018] [8086:15ea] (rev 06) 05:01.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation JHL7540 Thunderbolt 3 Bridge [Titan Ridge 4C 2018] [8086:15ea] (rev 06) 05:02.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation JHL7540 Thunderbolt 3 Bridge [Titan Ridge 4C 2018] [8086:15ea] (rev 06) 05:04.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation JHL7540 Thunderbolt 3 Bridge [Titan Ridge 4C 2018] [8086:15ea] (rev 06) 06:00.0 System peripheral [0880]: Intel Corporation JHL7540 Thunderbolt 3 NHI [Titan Ridge 4C 2018] [8086:15eb] (rev 06) 3a:00.0 USB controller [0c03]: Intel Corporation JHL7540 Thunderbolt 3 USB Controller [Titan Ridge 4C 2018] [8086:15ec] (rev 06) 6f:00.0 Unassigned class [ff00]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

ls permissions format changed in CentOS 8
by Kenneth Porter 26 Oct '19

26 Oct '19

When I use "ls -al" on a directory, for files with only owner read/write permission, the displayed attributes are "-rw-", not "-rw-------". That means the file names don't line up with other files in the directory, which makes the listing harder to read. What changed where and how do I fix that?

Have "system"/Hunspell dictionaries stopped working in CentOS 7 Firefox?
by Toralf Lund 25 Oct '19

25 Oct '19

Until quite recently, multiple spell-checker languages were available in Firefox on my CentOS 7 system. (They could be selected from "Languages" under the right-click menu in text boxes.) After a recent system upgrade, there is only "English (United States)". I don't think I had installed any extra Firefox dictionaries as such, but the "global" spell-checking support is set up to support a few extra languages via hunspell-<lang> software packages. I believe Firefox used to be able to pick these up - probably through a link from /usr/lib64/firefox to /usr/share/myspell that the CentOS firefox package provides. Did I get that right? Has the mechanism stopped working? Is there any way to re-enable the system dictionaries? Note that I get all the expected dictionaries in Thunderbird, which appears to rely on a similar hack. My Firefox is "firefox-68.1.0-2.el7.centos.x86_64". Thanks. - Toralf

smart card auth
by Stephen Berg (Code 7309) 25 Oct '19

25 Oct '19

I updated my work desktop to kernel-3.10.0-1062.4.1.el7.x86_64 yesterday as I was leaving. This morning booted into that new kernel I was unable to login using my common access card. Rebooted in the previous kernel (3.10.0-1062.1.2.el7.x86_64) and smart card login works fine. Anyone else seeing any similar problems? I haven't had time to dig deeply into the logs yet but I did a bunch of pcscd restarts overnight, about once per hour according to monit. -- Stephen Berg, IT Specialist, Ocean Sciences Division, Code 7309 Naval Research Laboratory W: (228) 688-5738 <- (Preferred contact) DSN: (312) 823-5738 C: (228) 365-01

UEFI and PXE
by isdtor 25 Oct '19

25 Oct '19

We have a working PXE setup. I've tried to adapt it to UEFI as per RHEL6 manual, but the client won't boot. Strangely, tcpdump shows that the client tries to download all files via tftp from the dhcp server rather than the tftp server (they are different). next-server is pointing to the tftp server. Any clues?
