Scrabble??
by Beartooth 12 Nov '13

12 Nov '13

Does anyone know a way to run a Scrabble program on CentOS? (I realize the obvious existence of Wine and of virtual machines; but my experience with both has been thoroughly unsatisfactory. So I'd much rather get a linux-native app.) There seem to be two proprietary Scrabble programs, one in which you play against the computer, and one in which you play against a remote friend. The latter is what I'm being asked for by Her Who Must Be Obeyed. (I don't play Scrabble.) -- Beartooth Staffwright, Neo-Redneck Not Quite Clueless Power User Remember I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is.

virtualbox, lvextend, etc.
by Wes James 12 Nov '13

12 Nov '13

I'm using virtualbox with one of the tests I have for centos 6.4. I realized after creating the disk, the default was too small. I added more disk space with: VBoxManage modifyhd /Users/user/VirtualBox\ VMs/centos\ 6.x/centos\ 6.x.vdi --resize 25000 I then used this site to help me resize the lvm: http://community.spiceworks.com/how_to/show/2768-extending-lvm-partition-wi… but when I do: df -h I still see only the original 8gig disk (8gig total - 4gig data/4gig swap)). When I look at pvscan in lvm, it says 23.92GiB is the size of the volume. Why doesn't df see it correctly? Thanks, -wes

qemu-kvm-rhev
by Sander Grendelman 11 Nov '13

11 Nov '13

I recently ran into some problems using certain oVirt (3.3) features on CentOS 6.4 hosts. The solution was to use the qemu-kvm-rhev version from the EL6 RHEV repository: http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/6Server/en/RHEV/SRPMS/qem… It seems that this tree is not carried/built by CentOS. Are there any plans on the CentOS for carrying these packages? Some background information: - http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2013-November/017652.html - http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2013-November/017722.html Best regards, Sander

XML to text
by Steve Campbell 11 Nov '13

11 Nov '13

Is there anything offered in Centos that might convert an XML file to a plain text file? My hopes are that it is flexible enough to make the following type of line: <title>Guide</title> into something like: title: Guide along with all the other fields. It'd be nice if it could handle multiple lines inside a single tag line as well. thanks steve campbell

Certain fonts missing from xlsfonts in Centos 6.4
by Çağrı Gürleyük 11 Nov '13

11 Nov '13

I have a certain software on CentOS 6.4 that gave the following error: X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist) Major opcode of failed request: 45 (X_OpenFont) Serial number of failed request: 15 Current serial number in output stream: 30 Running strace shows that the error happens just about here: writev(4, [{"-\2\21\0\4\0\240\0027\0\240\2-adobe-helvetica-bol"..., ... I thought some fonts were missing from my system, so I went on to insall all xorg-x11-fonts-* packages on my system. The Adobe fonts should be included in the xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi package. I thought the fonts may not be in the fonts path, so I ran xset q. The fonts seemed to be in the X font path. Keyboard Control: auto repeat: on key click percent: 0 LED mask: 00000000 XKB indicators: 00: Caps Lock: off 01: Num Lock: off 02: Scroll Lock: off 03: Shift Lock: off 04: Group 2: off 05: Mouse Keys: off auto repeat delay: 65535 repeat rate: 0 auto repeating keys: 00feffffdffffbbf fadfffffffdfe5ef ffffffffffffffff ffffffffffffffff bell percent: 50 bell pitch: 400 bell duration: 100 Pointer Control: acceleration: 2/1 threshold: 4 Screen Saver: prefer blanking: yes allow exposures: yes timeout: 0 cycle: 0 Colors: default colormap: 0x50 BlackPixel: 0 WhitePixel: 16777215 Font Path: /usr/NX/share/fonts/TTF,/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/share/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/share/X11/fonts/100dpi/,/usr/share/X11/fonts/TTF/,/usr/NX/share/fonts/base,/usr/NX/share/fonts/base,/usr/NX/share/fonts/base Bug Mode: compatibility mode is disabled DPMS (Energy Star): Standby: 0 Suspend: 0 Off: 0 DPMS is Disabled Despite all these, the font requried (any font from the Adobe family) seems not to be reported with xlsfonts, and the application error persists. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
