Load html file into elinks from desktop
by Frank Cox 10 Nov '18

10 Nov '18

With a html file on my (Mate) desktop I would like to be able to right-click on it and select "open with" and have it load into elinks. But I haven't yet figured out the magic command line that I need for this to happen. gnome-terminal --command="elinks %s" That loads elinks but doesn't load the html file into it. gnome-terminal --command="cat %s | elinks" doesn't work either. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com

last failed login...
by Fred Smith 10 Nov '18

10 Nov '18

Hi all! I just (well, a few days ago) installed C7 on a new-to-me (used) laptop, and notice something I've not noticed before, either on my personal desktop, or other C7 machines I use: every time I log in, it gives me a message something like "last failed login <timestamp>", where the date and time it gives are RIGHT NOW, just at the time I'm logging in (which succeeds). Anybody know why that would be happening? BTW, using the Mate desktop, but did not change the DM, so I think it is still GDM. Thanks in advance!

Red Hat is Planning To Deprecate KDE on RHEL By 2024
by Frank Cox 10 Nov '18

10 Nov '18

https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/11/02/rhel_deprecates_kde/ That's still several years in the future, of course. I use Mate on all of my machines rather than Gnome or KDE and I'm sure many of you fine folks do the same. But it's interesting nonetheless. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com

Yum through a proxy
by Vic Chester 09 Nov '18

09 Nov '18

I have configured yum to use a proxy via the yum.conf file by adding: proxy=http://myproxy.com:8080/ What I noticed when running yum check-up date is that some requests are going through the proxy while the system seems to be trying to resolve the domains of other hosts in the repo and trying to establish direct connections to them instead of going through the proxy. Can anyone explain this behavior?

A newbie question about searching an installed packet
by Pierre Malard 08 Nov '18

08 Nov '18

Hi, I’m french and literally one. So I’m not really easy with Sheakespeare language. So, accept my apologies. As write in subject, I’m a newbie about CentOS an all RedHat declines. I wrote a Shell script for ours Debians (all sort of Debian like) which verify which packets are present before running. I thought I had found an equivalent with « yum list installed | grep <packet> » command but I have sometime alerts about a lock because an other instance of « yum » is running. I don’t understand why a simple « yum list » impose that! I suppose, like with « aptitude search », it is an understanding scorie. I’m sure there is an other way to do what I want to do: just verify if a packet is, or not, installed. Help?

Desktop files change?
by david allan finch 08 Nov '18

08 Nov '18

Hi, Does anyone know if they changed the way that desktop files for apps work? It seams that inside your start script you can no longer change your scripts directory. Does it now call some form of restricted shell? Anyone know where you can track these changes?

command in kickstart file to write disklabel?
by Valeri Galtsev 08 Nov '18

08 Nov '18

Dear All, At some point after release of CentOS 7 (though this thing might have started before, it is just when _I_ noticed it) I discovered that if I stick into machine drive without disk label, and then do kickstart installation, the command in kickstart file clearpart --initlabel does not work. Even worse: if I just use GUI installer the drive is not listed between available disks. If I switch in the same installer to some virtual console Ctrl + Alt + F2 I can see that the kernel installer run under definitely sees the drive: /dev/sda is present. It must be an issue beaten to death, but somehow my search ability fails on this particular one (I am not "googling" but "duckduckgo-ing", though this shouldn't matter the problem as usually must be myself). Can someone suggest something? I know it is trivial to just create disklabel before sticking drive in machine, but once I'm using kickstart, any need in separate manual steps feels really lame. Thanks a lot for all your help in advance!
