CentOS 7.2.1511 upgrade to 7.3, many failed dependencies
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 27 Dec '16

27 Dec '16

Hi, folks, I know there was some talk on the list about this, but a) I'm at work, and that thread is pop-3 on my system at home, and b) what attention I paid didn't suggest *this*: Transaction Summary ================================================================================ Install 3 Packages (+10 Dependent packages) Upgrade 537 Packages Skipped (dependency problems) 278 Packages Total download size: 700 M Is this ok [y/d/N]: n One-third of the entire upgrade failed for dependencies or conflicts? I've just checked, and CR is not enabled, either. Was there a resolution for this? mark

Also, many free software developers are actually paid for their software development work. Maybe not as much as one might be paid for commercial software. Great example is postfix (free open source software), architectured, written and developed under the hood of IBM (thank you, great guys!) by brilliant person Vietse Venema Wietse Venema (I don't know where to hide in shame) Valeri (thank you, Vietse!!). > > Valeri > >> >> both are 'given' "in a world with out fences". >> >> >> -- >> >> The important thing is not to stop questioning. >> - Albert Einstein >> >> >> CentOS GNU/Linux 6.8 >> KDE 4.3.4 >> >> peace out. >> >> tc,hago. >> >> g >> . >> >> =+= >> Tired of having your microsoft os hacked? >> Change to Linux os, used by microsoft hackers. >> =+= >> If Bill Gates got a dime for every time Windows crashes... >> ...oh, wait.

apcupsd-3.14.14
by TE Dukes 25 Dec '16

25 Dec '16

Hello, Looking for a apcupsd 3.14.14 rpm. Been getting communication lost errors. I read there was a problem with the 3.14.12 version regarding a usb connection which I'm using, but has been corrected in 3.14.14. I found a Fedora 25 Rawhide src version, but the link must be bad. Was hoping I could rebuild it for Cento 6. Looks like apcupsd no longer producing the rpms. I could build one from the source but would prefer to use an rpm. TIA

New laptop recomendation
by Tony Molloy 24 Dec '16

24 Dec '16

Hi, I'm recently retired from my university job. I am looking for a laptop to run CentOS 6/7. My university was a traditional Dell site so I've used Latitude laptops for years, currently E6500/E6510. Anybody got any experience of running CentOS on the newer Dell Latitudes E5000 or E7000. These are not certified according to Redhats' Hardware Guide. Alternatively Precision Workstations would do. These can be supplied with Ubuntu installed so they run Linux. Thanks, Tony -- Linux nogs.tonyshome.ie 2.6.32-642.11.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Nov 18 19:25:05 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Alternative to cPanel
by FrancisM 24 Dec '16

24 Dec '16

Dear All, Im looking for alternative for cPanel and somehow I read that the 'cwp control web panel' (http://centos-webpanel.com) and Sentora ( http://www.sentora.ga) is the good alternative for cPanel. Is there someone using this application and what can you tell about or recommend. Thank you all.
