Re: [CentOS] UC One-time reboot into alternate kernel?

See sections > 4.3.1 and 4.3.2 in the manual: You should keep in mind that this may not save you from pressing the reset button if the system hangs at boot (as far as I understand). However, you are right that this is a mechanism to boot a fallback kernel if booting fails. best regards --- Michael Schumacher

Using a "compose key" on Centos6
by Fred Smith 15 Dec '14

15 Dec '14

Hi all! I ran into a description of how to set up a compose key for F21 and decided to see if it would work on C6. Well, the right configuration dialog exists, and I can choose a key to use, but after completion, the compose key doesn't seem to work. It works like a charm on Centos-7, though. If I select Right Win as the compose key, typing <compose>ae results in "�" as I expect. but doing the same thing on Centos-6 gives me an unadorned "ae", not the ligature, but the individual characters. i.e., it doesn't do anything helpful. Since the keyboard setup dialog includes the options to define a compose key I'm going to assume it's supposed to work, and th at I'm just overlooking something. Anybody got any good suggestions? thanks! -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Under no circumstances will I ever purchase anything offered to me as the result of an unsolicited e-mail message.

[OT} Odd tmux behaviour on exit
by James B. Byrne 15 Dec '14

15 Dec '14

CentOS-6.6 tmux-1.6 (epel) Twice now I have experienced the situation where upon exiting from a tmux initiated session on a remote host instead of returning to the originating session I see this in the session terminal display: <pre> ················································································ ·································<infinite>····································· . . . <infinite lines of dots> . . . ·································<infinite>····································· ················································································ <pre> If I resize the terminal window then the dots expand to fill the available display. The scroll-back is not affected. I am unable to regain control of that terminal session from within the session itself. Looking at the processes runnin on that host from a direct ssh session shows this: <pre> # ps -ef | grep ssh root 1502 1 0 Dec12 ? 00:00:06 /usr/sbin/sshd root 10798 1502 0 10:00 ? 00:00:09 sshd: root@pts/0 root 13015 10810 0 10:12 pts/1 00:00:08 ssh inet07 -t -Y tmux || /bin/bash root 13017 1502 0 10:12 ? 00:00:08 sshd: root@pts/2 root 15622 1502 0 10:45 ? 00:00:00 sshd: root root 16033 1502 1 10:47 ? 00:00:00 sshd: root@pts/3 root 16099 16038 3 10:48 pts/3 00:00:00 grep ssh [root@inet07 ~]# ps -ef | grep 10810 root 10810 10809 0 10:00 pts/1 00:00:00 -bash root 13015 10810 0 10:12 pts/1 00:00:08 ssh inet07 -t -Y tmux || /bin/bash root 16113 16038 0 10:48 pts/3 00:00:00 grep 10810 [root@inet07 ~]# ps -ef | grep 10809 root 10809 1 0 10:00 ? 00:00:03 tmux root 10810 10809 0 10:00 pts/1 00:00:00 -bash root 16115 16038 3 10:48 pts/3 00:00:00 grep 10809 </pre> pts/3 is the diect ssh connection. pts/1 appears to be the tmux session instigated from the ssh login pts/2. I am guessing that the problem is somewhere in the shutdown of pts/1. If I kill 13015 (pts/1) from the direct ssh connection then I return control of the tmux session back to the terminal and I remain logged on to the remote host. If I then exit the remote host I return to the original host as expected. Tmux is called from the original session using a function named sshtn as defined below: # declare -f sshta () { ssh "$*" -t -Y 'tmux a || tmux || /bin/bash' } sshtn () { ssh "$*" -t -Y 'tmux || /bin/bash' } Anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this; and is there any way of preventing it? In this instance I had opened an X-Window application (gvim) in the remote tmux instance and had subsequently shut that down prior to exiting. Nonetheless, I am wondering if that has anything to do with the situation. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

Pre-packaged Python 2.7 for 32-bit CentOS 6?
by Alfred von Campe 15 Dec '14

15 Dec '14

Either this doesn’t exist or my Google-foo is failing me this morning. I keep coming across the Software Collections Repository (http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/SCL) but that is for 64-bit only. Before I attempt to create Python-2.7 RPMs for 32-bit CentOS 6 to install into /usr/local or /opt/python-2.7, I wonder if someone else has done this so I don’t have to re-invent the wheel. Thanks, Alfred

If you are using GRUB 0.97 (legacy GRUB), then this capability is provided by the "default saved" and "fallback" commands.

need guidance on getting started...again
by Clayton Kirkwood 15 Dec '14

15 Dec '14

Hello, It's been about 15 years since I've enjoyed working in the Unix space, and I am trying to reintegrate myself. A few things have changed in the intervening years. I've installed the first Centos6 iso without too much difficulty, but I am rusty on commands and such. It appears the install doesn't install mans so would somebody suggest a way to find and install them. It appears that there are several install package implementations. Which is the best to use? Any other helpful guidance would be greatly appreciated. I'm going with Centos 6 because I only have a 32 bit machine, otherwise I'd be up on 7, I would think. Thanks, Clayton You can tell the caliber of a man by his gun--c. kirkwood
