Intel 4600 Graphics (Haswell) in CentOS 6.4
by Glenn Eychaner 05 Sep '13

05 Sep '13

Quick question that I haven't been able to find the answer to (and not for lack of trying, believe me): Is dual-monitor display for the new Intel HD Graphics 4600 (Haswell, e.g. Intel E3-1200v3 family processors) supported in CentOS 6.4? In particular, I'm looking at a SuperMicro X10SAE; SuperMicro has already replied that triple-display only works with a VGA-HDMI-DP combo (lame) and only in Windows (lame), but had no information as to dual-display (they reported to me that only tested single-head configurations [lame] before marking it as "supported" on their website). http://www.supermicro.com/support/resources/OS/C226.cfm I already found that the Intel opensource site only has releases for Fedora 19 and Ubuntu 13, and that X.org lists the latest release as 2011Q3 and the latest support as SandyBridge: http://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads http://www.x.org/wiki/IntelGraphicsDriver/ But the latest version of xorg-x11-drv-intel in ElRepo Extras was uploaded in March of this year, and I haven't found whether the upstream vendor backported or sideported something into the latest distribution. [Yes, I'm STILL working on the workstation configuration. We're considering putting off triple-head support to cut costs, because the dreamy NVS510 cards are expensive. It's like a morass of quicksand sometimes.] Gracias y saludos, -G. -- Glenn Eychaner (geychaner(a)lco.cl) Telescope Systems Programmer, Las Campanas Observatory

CentOS-6 on Toshiba Toughbook CF-31
by James B. Byrne 05 Sep '13

05 Sep '13

I am contemplating getting a couple of these for company use. However, I am also trying to wean our entire company away from MicroSoft (and from Apple for that matter). So, I would like to use one of these systems to try out CentOS as an alternative OS. Does anyone here have any experience with running CentOS-6 (RHEL6) on this computer? Is any of the hardware rendered inoperative or otherwise unusable? -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

possible bug, unusable system after hibernate
by Patrick 05 Sep '13

05 Sep '13

Hi I put my computer into hibernate last night. This morning I could not save thunderbird email drafts and I rebooted my system. It stopped before launching X and offered a root rescue shell. I am using a solid state drive and it's very possible that it just ended up with a failed sector. It's my understanding that these drives are fast but less robust then rotary based ones. This may be nothing but if you have just backed up your data maybe you could try to hibernate just in case it is a real issue and is reproducible. Thanks-Patrick

CentOS users in Warsaw
by Fabrizio Di Carlo 04 Sep '13

04 Sep '13

Hello to all, I'm currently working in Symantec Warsaw, but I'm coming from Italy, and I want to ask if there are some CentOS users in Warsaw, just for drinking some beers or talk about some topics (I'm studying for RHCSA).

exclude in a repo file
by Carl T. Miller 03 Sep '13

03 Sep '13

Hi All, I just discovered that the remi repo has updated versions of firefox. This is good news, but it leads me to a question. Is it possible to exclude all packages except one or two in a repo file? The man page for yum.conf didn't give me any hints. I tried unsuccessfully adding this line: exclude=!firefox*,!xulrunner* Is there a way to set up this repo so that when I run "yum upgrade" it will only check the firefox and xulrunner packages from the remi repo? c

touchpad problem?
by Ahmed 03 Sep '13

03 Sep '13

Hi there, i recently installed centos 6 64bit version on my HPProBook4530s Laptop. i then issued the command to update the kernel only. it updated the kernel to latest stable 2.6.32-358.14.1.el6.x86_64 kernel. After update what i got is that my touchpad is not working. i am 1000% certain that new kernel caused this problem. so, what i should do with the kernel to overcome this problem or any other suggestion? Warm Regards, Ahmed Dawood
