pacmd command to switch outputs for an application?
by jason welsh 18 Dec '16

18 Dec '16

just wondering if anyone has figured out how to make pacmd switch the output of a certain application (lets say chrome browser) from one output (speakers) to another (usb headset). I can easily do this with the pavucontrol program, but I cant figure out how to make pacmd do it.. any ideas? Jason

greetings. on laptop with new install of centos 6.8 and current update, wireshark will not start via kde kickoff application launcher. it will start from start from a terminal. "locate wireshark|grep bin/" show 2 paths for wireshark; /usr/bin/wireshark /usr/sbin/wireshark opening kde menu editor show simple command 'wireshark'. changing to; /usr/bin/wireshark failed. changed to; /usr/sbin/wireshark failed. do not know about Denmark, but something is rotten here with install. with previous system install, wireshark worked from kde menu w/o any problem. to verify install ran yum to delete, then reinstalled, same problem. question, what might be causing this and how to cure. as always, any and all help, comments, suggestions greatly appreciated. tia.

7.3 and USB headphones
by Fred Smith 17 Dec '16

17 Dec '16

Hi all! I wish to give huge thankyous to KB and all the others who worked to get 7.3 out the door. Many thanks! I have some good things and some bad. A good thing is that unlike previous versions, when I plug in my USB headphones they are automatically recognized and I get sound without having to change anything! (which is a huge win from before when I had to mess with settings, sometimes for a few minutes, to get headphone sound and microphone audio.) The not so good thing is that I don't have any working volume control for that sound. Nothing I have found will change the sound volume in the headphones except the little dongle-thing that is inline in the headphone cord. sometimes when messing with it strange things happen on the screen that I don't understand, so I prefer to just leave it alone. (one thing I don't know is if the microphone is enabled, too, when it is plugged in... I'll probably find out tomorrow when I have an online class.) Anyone have any ideas how to get control over this? thanks! -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex(a)fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ---------------------------- Do you not know? Have you not heard?

CentOS 7, ATI video, ex-X
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 16 Dec '16

16 Dec '16

A user running gnome came in this morning, clicked on the application menu... and it was much shorter than he expected. He could get to firefox, and googled about refreshing that... and found something that told him to reboot. And that's it: I cannot get X up, at all. I just get the "oh, no, something failed, please log out and try again". Fully updated CentOS 7, [AMD/ATI] Oland [Radeon HD 8570 / R7 240/340 OEM], and, like most of us, he uses two monitors. . I've tried removing the xorg.conf, and renaming /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-fglrx.conf, which was there (I didn't put it there when I built the box a few months ago.) I don't see anything even vaguely useful in the Xorg logs... and, for that reason, not sure why I'm on Xorg.3.log, other than it may have been created by startx. I've tried that, both as root, and as myself, get that "oh, no" screen, and when I hit enter to log out, I get a live but black screen, completely unresponsive. I don't see any errors in dmesg or messages, and I've tried reinstalling xorg-x11-drv-ati, which gives me xorg-x11-drv-ati-7.6.1-3.20160215gitd41fccc.el7.x86_64. Does anyone have any ideas on this? I can't even get a single screen working, though it's mirrored, of course, in text mode. mark

Re: [CentOS] Panic on boot with 7.3 kernels when decrypting hard drive
by Christopher St. Louis 16 Dec '16

16 Dec '16

>> You need to capture the actual panic, or else it's just guessing. >> Boot without the rhgb quiet kernel args. >> >> Also check it's not just something silly like running out os space >> on /boot causing incomplete/corrupt initramfs. >> >> jh Thanks for the advice. Df reports that /boot has 80% free space right now; I would assume that's enough but I don't know. I need to remove a few of the old kernels I've got taking up space. There are a few initramfs-*kdump.img files that have appeared that I assume might be helpful in tracking down the problems? I changed the boot arguments (and also added the args to automatically reboot following a panic, which fixes one of my problems), and I'm definitely getting kernel panics. Both 4.4.39-1 and 4.9.0-1 end up with pretty much the same issue: "Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt." I know the details of the panic can/should be kept in a log somewhere, but that's where my limited experience fails me--I see references to Xorg.0.log and boot.log online, but those seem to only keep the details of the most recent boot. I used the not-so-high-tech method of taking a photo of my laptop's screen output before it restarted, and it seems like the panic details for both kernels started with a "BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008" and followed shortly by an "Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP." Beyond that, the behavior seems to be somewhat inconsistent--the first time I booted the 4.9 kernel without the quiet rhgb args it seemed to hang on something related to ipv6 setup without actually getting into a panic, but I foolishly didn't capture any of the other details. The pre-7.3 4.4.36-1 kernel that had been working just fine now seems to fail in a panic every other boot, and I'm currently working from within the latest 3.10.0-514 kernel that came with 7.3, which had previously failed to boot in a panic as well. This is somewhat embarassing because I was feeling pretty confident that I had pretty much gotten the hang of regular Linux use, but now it feels like I somehow caused some major problems when I updated to 7.3 (though I didn't do anything beyond "yum update.") If I were back on Windows, this would be the part where I backup my files and start from a fresh install, since that was usually the least painless way to fix major system problems. Is there a possibility that this is fixable, or would that be a good strategy to employ here? Or does this suggest something more serious, like a hardware issue? My apologies for dragging beginner's issues here into a mailing list for an enterprise OS; CentOS just works so nicely, decently responsive with low resource usage and was (up until now) completely stable on my aging X301. Thanks again.

libgme drive-by exploit.
by Lamar Owen 16 Dec '16

16 Dec '16

An interesting exploit: https://scarybeastsecurity.blogspot.com/2016/12/redux-compromising-linux-us… While this is tailored to Fedora 25 (with Chrome) and Ubuntu 16.04, in checking my CentOS 7 system I find that it is not vulnerable simply because it doesn't have the libgme used by gstreamer-plugins-bad to make it work. However, gstreamer-plugins-bad-free is indeed installed, and is listed as an installation from anaconda, so it is on the media. I didn't specifically select it in the package set I installed. I didn't look to see if any third-party packages have it.... lessee.... nope, didn't find the 'Game Music Emu' (gstreamer-plugins-bad-extras contains this in Fedora 25) anywhere, but I reserve the right to be wrong. Now, even though C7 is not vulnerable by default, following Chris Evans' narrative on how he dug this out and made it reliably exploitable is a very good read, especially if you want to see what kind of trampoline can actually be employed by those who really are out to get us.

Looking for DirectFB 1.4.11 RPMs for 32-bit CentOS 6
by Alfred von Campe 16 Dec '16

16 Dec '16

Our current build process requires the directfb-1.4.11-3.el6.i686.rpm and directfb-devel-1.4.11-3.el6.i686.rpm packages, but they appear to be no longer available from the EPEL repo, and I can’t find them anywhere else either. If you have a local copy, or can point me to some other repo or web site that has these 2 RPMs, I would really appreciate it. Thanks, Alfred

Problem with yum on CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511 (Core) with 3.10.0-327.36.3.el7.x86_64 kernel
by Gregory P. Ennis 15 Dec '16

15 Dec '16

Everyone, I am at a loss on this problem would appreciate some guidance as to where to start to fix it. I noticed that my home gateway server was not being updated with the new kernel and other software, and when I ran yum it aborted with the following notices. I tried a yum clean all, but this did not fix the problem. I thought the problem may be related to one of the repos, but I have other machines in the same network that update properly. I disabled all repos except the BASE to try to simply the problem and still the same problem. Any help would be appreciated.

spec file frustration (rant)
by Alice Wonder 15 Dec '16

15 Dec '16

I'm getting spec files from centos git which is really convenient when the related source is easy to find. But some things - e.g. from a spec file # How to create the source tarball: # # git clone git://git.fedorahosted.org/git/python-rhsm.git/ # cd client/python-rhsm # tito build --tag python-rhsm-$VERSION-$RELEASE --tgz Never used tito before, so I install it and try, and rather than giving me the source package I need - it gives me a python traceback complaining that I haven't configured some things properly. Seems a lot of the software distribution world is getting overly complex with an expectation that the end user who needs to exercise his FLOSS rights has to use git or nodejs or for php composer or whatever just to get what use to be available with no more complexity than choosing tar.gz or tar.bz2 or .zip if the dev was Windows. Whatever happened to KISS and why can't source tarballs be distributed as source tarballs? Back when I was a Fedora packager - the packaging guidelines would reject a package of the Source tarball wasn't a URL and if the timestamp on the tarball in the src.rpm didn't match upstream even if the checksum was identical. Guess those days are gone. /rant

virt-manager problem
by Alessandro Baggi 15 Dec '16

15 Dec '16

Hi list, this morning I've update my centos to 1611. Running virt-manager, and trying to open virt-viewer by clicking on "Open", I get this error: Errore nell'avvio dell'installazione: 'nome-mv' This bug is reported on rh bugzilla (for Fedora 24) and closed 2016-07-02 11:24:51 EDT This problem is locale related. To solve this problem (for other user) I've removed this file: /usr/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/virt-manager.mo. and restarting virt-manager all works fine. Hope that helps for other user with same problem. Best regards. Alessandro.

A *very* strange C 7 question
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 14 Dec '16

14 Dec '16

Ok, I've got a user, I just built him a C 7 machine. The new one has an ATI card; the old had an NVidia card. I got it to use the radeon driver, so it looks ok (he has a very wide screen). However... he has a program that renders a molecule (which you see as many connected lines, in various colors). However... it used to display it against a black background, and suddenly, it's a transparent background, showing what's under that window. Anyone got any ideas about that? mark

libreoffice 5 slow after 7.3 update
by Alexandru Chiscan 14 Dec '16

14 Dec '16

Hello all, After the update to 7.3 libreoffice (5.0.6.2-3.el7.x86_64) became unusable slow. For an excel file with 250 rows even a simple scroll takes a few seconds, during that time the Xorg server is 100% working and the GPU utilization is at about 77% (from NVIDIA server settings). I have tried disabling the hardware acceleration (options->view) and OpenCL (options) but the problem and the high usage for Xorg and GPU persisted. I have seen the the same bug (probably) was present in Fedora 23 (libreoffice version 5.0.5.2-1.fc23.x86_64 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1308700) Does anyone had the same problem and if yes what was the fix? Does RedHat 7.3 has the same problem? I have searched the bugzilla database and found only the Fedora bug.

Problem with attachments in thunderbird-45.5.1
by Toralf Lund 14 Dec '16

14 Dec '16

Hi, Has anyone else had problems opening attachments in Mozilla Thunderbird under CentOS 6 lately? I find that when I open the application and select a message with attachments and double-click on one of them, everything works as expected. But, if I try to open another (and another etc.), the helper application isn't started. In other words, I can only view one attachment per session - if I want more, I have to restart Thunderbird. This probably started happening after upgrading to a new version that was released a few days ago. - Toralf

Panic on boot with 7.3 kernels when decrypting hard drive
by Christopher St. Louis 14 Dec '16

14 Dec '16

I was excited to update my system to CentOS 7.3/1611 yesterday when the release announcement came through, but since then I've been running into some serious kernel issues. I've been successfully running 7.2 on a Thinkpad X301 for about 6 months now, with an encrypted disk that unlocks with a password at boot time. I think that's LUKS on LVM? I didn't tinker with the default encryption options so it's nothing too exotic: unencrypted /boot on sda1, encrypted system/home on sda2. I've used both the standard 3.10 kernels and 4.4 kernels from the kernel-lt package from ELrepo with no problems so far. When performing the update to 7.3 yesterday, the packages kernel-lt-4.4.38-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64 and kernel-3.10.0-514.2.2.el7.x86_64 were installed. With both of those, my system comes to a complete, frozen halt on boot, after I've entered my disk decryption key and before I see a login screen. The little progress spinner freezes, and the caps lock light on my keyboard starts blinking, which I've been told indicates a kernel panic. Any manner of key combinations, even the "magic SysRq" combinations do nothing to recover the system--the only way out is to cut the power. I was able to fall back to the still-installed 4.4.36-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64 kernel with no problems. On a whim, I tried installing the latest mainline kernel from ELrepo as well (kernel-ml-4.9.0-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64) and encountered a similar hard lock, minus the blinkenlight in the caps lock key. Has anyone else had a similar issue? Is there anything in what I've described that sounds obvious to what the solution is? It really just seems like the problems are with kernels that have come through following the 7.3 release. I'm still somewhat new at getting into the inner workings of Linux, but is there a log that might shed some light on what went wrong? Thanks in advance, --C

Disable gnome-initial-setup
by Gordon Messmer 13 Dec '16

13 Dec '16

Prior to 7.3, I could disable the post-first-boot GNOME initial setup window by turning off the "initial-setup-graphical" systemd service. That service no longer exists, so I no longer know how to disable the setup window. I know that I can remove the "gnome-initial-setup" package, but I expect that at some point, it'll be brought in by dependencies or group membership, so I'd like to find a way to turn it off regardless of that package's presence. Does anyone know how, in the new version?

disk selection with ks file in 7.3
by Joseph L. Casale 13 Dec '16

13 Dec '16

My existing ks files leave the disk selection unset in 7.3. Checking the manual, I do not see changes in that area so performing a manual installation and comparing the resulting config to mine yields little difference. Taking the anaconda generated disk config section and deploying a new ks with this halts at disk selection unset still? Anyone seeing this? jlc

by Alice Wonder 13 Dec '16

13 Dec '16

Looking at http://vault.centos.org/ and not seeing them. I need to rebuild krb5 At git.centos.org I can get the spec file, patches, etc. but the source are not there. In particular it looks like I need krb5-1.14.1-pdfs.tar which isn't at the MIT upstream that I can see and nss_wrapper-0.0-20140204195100.git3d58327.tar.xz which from the date *might* be in the 7.2 src.rpm - but since vault doesn't have source RPMs for 7.3 is there another place that either has them or the tarballs that aren't in the git?

by geo.inbox.ignored 13 Dec '16

read 'announce' of new release for firefox-45.5.0, then for firefox-45.5.0, decided, wrongly, to upgrade. my bad. nothing but problems. on opening what moz devs considered as 'latest and greatest', found that it was more crapola from moz devs. first run was to login with my isp, only to find page would not fully load and a message bar saying; Firefox prevented this page from automatically reloading [Allow] clicking [Allow] button only cycled with same. 10 more clicks, decided that was enough. now, i would like to roll back to earlier 40.x, but no can do because of deleting 40.x to make room for new release. now have /var on it's own partition and have room for updating. 3 questions; 1- anyone else having problems with 45.5.1? 2- where might i find earlier releases of 40.x? 3- if i install 40.x in path /var/lib/yum/plugins/local/, will i be able to roll back. hoping for positive replies to #2 & 3#. replies/suggestions greatly appreciated. tia. -- 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?

Today's Topics: 1. Release for CentOS Linux 7 (1611) on x86_64 (Karanbir Singh) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Mon, 12 Dec 2016 17:42:53 +0000 From: Karanbir Singh <kbsingh(a)centos.org> To: CentOS Announcements List <centos-announce(a)centos.org> Subject: [CentOS-announce] Release for CentOS Linux 7 (1611) on x86_64 Message-ID: <57a573d2-7a27-9472-79d9-1733117c8603(a)centos.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am pleased to announce the general availability of CentOS Linux 7 (1611) for 64 bit x86 compatible machines. Effectively immediately, this is the current release for CentOS Linux 7 and is tagged as 1611, derived from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 As always, read through the Release Notes at : http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS7 - these notes contain important information about the release and details about some of the content inside the release from the CentOS QA team. These notes are updated constantly to include issues and incorporate feedback from the users. - ---------- Updates, Sources, and DebugInfos Updates released since we froze the iso and install media content are posted in the updates repo along with the release. This will include content from late November 2016 and December 2016, therefore anyone running a new install is highly encouraged to run a 'yum update' operation immediate on install completion. You can apply all updates, including the content released today, on your existing CentOS Linux 7/x86_64 machine by just running 'yum update'. As with all CentOS Linux 7 components, this release was built from sources hosted at git.centos.org. In addition, SRPMs that are a byproduct of the build (and also considered critical in the code and buildsys process) are being published to match every binary RPM we release. Sources will be available from vault.centos.org in their own dedicated directories to match the corresponding binary RPMs. Since there is far less traffic to the CentOS source RPMs compared with the binary RPMs, we are not putting this content on the main mirror network. If users wish to mirror this content they can do so using the reposync command available in the yum-utils package. All CentOS source RPMs are signed with the same key used to sign their binary counterparts. Developers and end users looking at inspecting and contributing patches to the CentOS Linux distro will find the code hosted at git.centos.org far simpler to work against. Details on how to best consume those are documented along with a quick start at : http://wiki.centos.org/Sources Debuginfo packages are also being signed and pushed. Yum configs shipped in the new release file will have all the context required for debuginfo to be available on every CentOS Linux install. This release supersedes all previously released content for CentOS Linux 7, and therefore we highly encourage all users to upgrade their machines. Information on different upgrade strategies and how to handle stale content is included in the Release Notes. - ---------- Download In order to conserve donor bandwidth, and to make it possible to get the mirror content sync'd out as soon as possible, we recommend using torrents to get your initial installer images: Details on the images are available on the mirrors at http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/isos/x86_64/0_README.txt - that file clearly highlights the difference in the images, and when one might be more suitable than the others.

The day's focus is on sharing technical knowledge and success stories. It's also a great place to meet and talk about upcoming technologies and learn how others are using them on CentOS Linux. Our next Dojo coming up is in Brussels, on the 3rd Feb 2017. Details are being posted at https://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/Brussels2017 If you would like to help organise a Dojo in your area, do drop by the centos-promo list at http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-pro mo - ---------- Getting Help The CentOS ecosystem is sustained by community driven help and guidance. The best place to start for new users is at http://wiki.centos.org/GettingHelp - ---------- Contributors This release was made possible due to the hard work of many people, foremost on that list are the Red Hat Engineers for producing a great distribution and the CentOS QA team, without them CentOS Linux would look very different. We are also looking for people to get involved with the QA process in CentOS, if you would like to join this please introduce yourself on the centos-devel list (http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-devel ). - ---------- Thanks I would also like to thank our donors and sponsors for their continued support for the project. And to everyone who contributed with ideas, code, test feedback, and promoting CentOS Linux into the ecosystem.

Network Manager - force activation of multiple connections
by Gary Stainburn 13 Dec '16

13 Dec '16

For each of my sites I have set up a server to act as AirPrint server. This requires the LAN connection that the servers have always had, plus a WIFI connection to give it a presence on the WIFI (The WIFI and LAN are on separate VLANS) I have finally dragged myself into the 21st century and used NetworkManager for the connection, using nmtui to do the work. The problem I have is that on most of these servers, thw WIFI connection doesn't always activate on bootup and I have to go into nmtui -> activate -> WIFI etc. to get it working again. Is there a way to force NetworkManager to always activate all interfaces on bootup?

openldap: replica consumers and ppolicy overlay values
by John Jasen 13 Dec '16

13 Dec '16

I'm trying to setup OpenLDAP on CentOS7, in a provider/consumer relationship. In general, provider/consumer is working quite well, except when it comes to password policy. Specifically, I want PwdFailureTime to be written to the provider from one of the front end consumers when appropriate. I'm lead to believe this requires: a) ppolicy_foward_updates TRUE (done) b) an appropriate syncrepl configuration for the consumer (I believe done) c) updateref $LDAP-provider-URI (done) d) an appropriate chain overlay on the provider (I think done) e) appropriate ACLs on the provider to allow the consumer bind-user access to manage PwdFailureTime (I believe done) I've attempted all of the above, but the consumer (when run in debugging mode), does not seem to be trying any updates upon authentication failure. It gives no indication of modifying locally, or of trying to contact the provider at all over this. Any idea whats going wrong?

Updated to CentOS 7.3. Works well. Needed to restorecon on /home.
by Yan Li 12 Dec '16

12 Dec '16

Hi, Sharing my experience upgrading my CentOS 7.2 to 7.3 this morning. I had to use kernel-ml 4.8 for its support of Skylake on my Dell Precision 7510 laptop. This morning 4.9 came out but I don't felt like trying it, because of the possibility of breaking my ZFS and nVIDIA stuff. So I decided to give the 7.3 in CR repo for a try. The upgrading was smooth. The only problem was that I had to reinstall nVIDIA proprietary drive because my nouveau blacklist was gone. I also had to run restorecon on /home because all labels were wrong. That broke Chrome and many other programs that need to access files in user home. I have no idea what's the cause yet. 3.10.0-514.2.2.el7.x86_64's support for Skylake is great. I see no difference between it and the previous 4.8 kernel I used. Then I was surprised when another CentOS also got all the 7.3 packages. That's when I realized that 7.3 was officially released this morning! -- Yan Li

Server turns off unexpectedly
by Gary Stainburn 12 Dec '16

12 Dec '16

A few weeks back I built a new Centos 7 server from a 4 year old workstation PC, and a brand new HDD. This PC had no prior problems other than it ran Windows 7. Thew new HDD is because I'm planning to also use it as a Bacula storage device. For the moment is purely an AirPrint server, using CUPS and Avahi so is ide 99.9% of the time. My priblem is that twice now it has turned itself off, the last time being at 7:40am today. There is nothing I can find in the logs prior to it going off, just the normal start-up entries when it's turned back on. Can anyone suggest why i may be happening, or how I can diagnose it. The server is in a UPS protected cabinet in locked room

Just wondering, what exactly is supported/suggested: I need a comprehensive desktop search functionality. Not only searching for file names but also for content and meta data. The environment is EL6.8 / Gnome2. I have noticed that "beagle" is not part of the distro anymore. Any suggestions for such requirement? Thanks! LF

trouble installing centos 6.8
by Emma M Birath 09 Dec '16

09 Dec '16

Dear all, I'm having trouble installing Centos 6.8, in a VM using VirtualBox, and hoping that someone on this distribution can help. I'm running VirtualBox Version 5.1.4 r110228 (Qt5.5.1). I downloaded .iso files for Centos 6.8: - CentOS-6.8-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso - CentOS-6.8-x86_64-bin-DVD2.iso I proceeded to set up a new VM, selecting Linux / RedHat 64 bit. I selected the DVD1 iso file above as "IDE Primary Master" and the DVD2 as "IDE Secondary Master". I then clicked "Start", expecting to be able to install the operating system. Instead of gives me a bunch of output I don't understand, and then it just hangs. I've attached a screen-shot. I tried to re-download the iso files, from a different mirror. Same issue. Any ideas? Thank you Emma

Unusual System State
by Chris Olson 07 Dec '16

07 Dec '16

Our smallest network of systems has only four computers connected via Gigabit Ethernet. The oldest and most stable platform is an eight year old Dell E520 running CentOS 6.8. We often try out applications on this Dell/CentOS machine before moving them to other systems on our other networks. Last night, one of our users decided to create a single, 228GB home directory tar archive on an empty, 500GB, external, USB, Ext4 disk drive. This was obviously a poor decision. The extent of the results were not obvious until this morning. All disk activity had stopped and the system appeared to be hibernation. A push on the power button usually brings the system back to life, but in this case, the unlock screen was presented for only three seconds and then the hibernation mode was resumed. Repeated attempts to log on were all thwarted due to this behavior. ssh from other systems wasalso not possible. Holding the power button in order to initiate power down did not work either. The result was the same as a one second press of front panel power button bringing up the unlock screen for only a short time. We eventually removed the power cord for five minutes and then restarted the machine. The system is running normally once again. The corrupted file system on the USB disk has been restored by re-partitioning and building a new Ext4 file system on it. The user no longer gets to use external disks. Examination of log files and the dmesg output did not yield any useful information regarding the unusual state of the system when unlock logon was not possible. Is there somewhere else we should look for evidence of what actually happened and the unusual state of the system. Thanks.

One didn't have coolkey as a security device, but when I tried to add it, it responded with "cannot add module".

Yes, at this time, I'm looking at issues with firefox. So - has anyone else had this problem? mark ################# Not yet had the issue(s) but I do have some questions: 1) is this with the same physical PIV that you have been using "Up until a few weeks ago", that is did you (or the affected person) get a new PIV recently? 1a) does firefox have the certificate authorities loaded which cover the card in question (make sure to trace back to the root CA, there have been changes)? 2) have you tried just `yum downgrade firefox` and see if it works? 2a) I would be tempted to do something on the order of `rpm -qa --last |head -50` and then for each package seen there do an rpm -q --verify (syntax unsure) on them to be sure all the packages got installed correctly. 3) same as (2) but with recent nss|coolkey|pcscd updates? 4) interrupted updates? i.e., `yum complete-transaction` (sp???) `yum reinstall firefox nss coolkey pcscd` Even when this disclaimer is not here: I am not a contracting officer.

ASL enters EPEL7: Hardware accelerated multiphysics simulation platform
by Zeev Pekar 07 Dec '16

07 Dec '16

Dear CentOS community, Due to efforts of Fedora maintainers ASL ( http://asl.org.il/ ) entered EPEL7 ( libASL ) today and now can be easily installed and deployed: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/rpms/libASL/ All the best, Zeev About ASL --------- Advanced Simulation Library (ASL) is a free and open source hardware accelerated multiphysics simulation platform (and an extensible general purpose tool for solving Partial Differential Equations). Its computational engine is written in OpenCL and utilizes matrix-free solution techniques which enable extraordinarily high performance, memory efficiency and deployability on a variety of massively parallel architectures, ranging from inexpensive FPGAs, DSPs and GPUs up to heterogeneous clusters and supercomputers. The engine is hidden entirely behind simple C++ classes, so that no OpenCL knowledge is required from application programmers. Mesh-free, immersed boundary approach allows one to move from CAD directly to simulation drastically reducing pre-processing efforts and amount of potential errors. ASL can be used to model various coupled physical and chemical phenomena and employed in a multitude of fields: computational fluid dynamics, virtual sensing, industrial process data validation and reconciliation, image-guided surgery, computer-aided engineering, design space exploration, crystallography, etc..

Kernel Panic at Boot
by Ken Smith 07 Dec '16

07 Dec '16

Hi All, This is a Centos 6.4 system used as a home server and Myth backend machine. It has just suffered a motherboard failure and I have got a identical replacement. This machine normally runs in run level 3. It has a NVidia graphics card and the NVidia driver installed but I found it crashed the machine as soon as I started X on there. So I never bothered with X and left it in RL3. So as part of the re-commissioning of this machine I decided to remove the NVidia driver and go back to Nouveau. I shouldn't have bothered. Even starting in RL1 it kernel panics at bootup toward the end of the boot process. If I boot it in level 3 all the daemons start and it runs a little bit of script I have in rc.local to enable ACL's and then panics. The panic is something like panic occurred, switching back to text console. general protection fault: 0000 [#2] SMP last sysfs file: /sys/devices/virtual/block/dm-5/dm/name CPU 1 Modules linked in: "........list of modules......." Pid: 147, comm: plymouthd Tainted: G D ------------------- 2.6.32-358.6.2.el6.x86_64 #1 Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd P43-ES3G/P43-ES3G There's a list of CPU registers and a call trace after that. I have a photo of the screen if that information is useful Any idea how I can trace this. Many thanks Ken -- Ken Smith K-Net Technology 020 8651 5722

centos 7 and qemu-system-arm for PI3
by Jerry Geis 06 Dec '16

06 Dec '16

I downloaded the file CentOS-Userland-7-armv7hl-Minimal-1603-RaspberryPi3.img I have qemu-system-arm installed on CentOS 7.2 I am trying to get this to run on my machine. I get this when I run: ./boot_arm_img.sh ../Downloads/CentOS-Userland-7-armv7hl-Minimal-1603-RaspberryPi3.img [root@devgeis development.systems]# No machine specified, and there is no default. Use -machine help to list supported machines! What "-machine XXXXX" value would I use for PI3? doing the -machine help gives a LONG list and I am not sure which machine to specify. This is the 32 bit image. I'd like to find a 64 bit image and use that also. Anyone doing this? Thanks, Jerry

CentOS ISO Build process
by Olivier BONHOMME 05 Dec '16

05 Dec '16

Hello the list, For a personal use, I would be intersted in creating my own custom CentOS ISO. For that, I would love to use the build process used for the the official ISOs generation. Is the documentation about this release process and the relative tools and configuration files are available and public for CentOS 7 ? If yes, where is it possible to find them ? I found data on seven.centos.org and livecd-tools but I'm not sure if it is the real used process. Thanks for your answers Regards, Olivier Bonhomme

Huge write amplification with thin provisioned logical volumes

Hi, I've noticed huge write amplification problem with thinly provisioned logical volumes and I wondered if anyone can explain why it happens and if and how can be fixed. The behavior is the same on Centos 6.8 and Centos 7.2. I have a NVME card (Intel DC P3600 -2 TB) on which I create a thinly provisioned logical volume: pvcreate /dev/nvme0n1 vgcreate vgg /dev/nvme0n1 lvcreate -l100%FREE -T vgg/thinpool lvcreate -V40000M -T vgg/thinpool -n brick1 mkfs.xfs /dev/vgg/brick1 If I run a write test ( dd if=/dev/zero of=./zero.img bs=4k count=100000 oflag=dsync ) I see in iotop that the actual disk write is 30 times the amount of data that I'm actually writing to disk).

CentOS6: devhelp search misses most of GTK+ 2 API functions
by wwp 05 Dec '16

05 Dec '16

Hello there, a long-standing issue I have here and that I'm decided to get rid of now: in the devhelp, most of the GTK+ functions are not found by the search tab: it will find gtk_icon fonctions but no gtk_widget or gtk_color_button, gtk_label etc. Also, it will find GtkVbox item but no gtk_vbox_new, GtkWidget but no gtk_widget function, for instance. The docs are there (gtk-doc, gtk2-devel-docs), since I can find all those API elements by browsing the GTK+ 2 Reference Manual from the Contents tab. Is this really how it should be? Regards, -- wwp

CentOS 7, PS-2 moose
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 02 Dec '16

02 Dec '16

I just built a workstation, CentOS 7, fully updated. My user requires his three-button mouse, telling me that imaging software is written for three-button mice (so *please* don't tell me to tell him to get a new mouse). Anyway, no cursor. In both /var/log/messages and journalctl, I see "unable to enable mouse". What I read in messages and manpages is that PS-2 is default standard... anyone have any ideas? I need to resolve this asap... so I can get onto making sure his research imaging software running on CentOS 7. mark

I'm still there ... test builds on private server (drivers, mesa, fixes)
by Andreas Benzler 02 Dec '16

02 Dec '16

Hello Guys, I'm still allive, but humbled by real lifetime. My personal test stuff moved out to a new server, with more harddrive space. http://www.centos.cms4all.org/ Repo http://centos.cms4all.org/repo/7/ My HP Notebook got some bios problem. I got a new machine with updated processor. That's why I upgrade my repo. Drivers: xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.99.917-20.20161118.el7.centos.src.rpm (More stable on intel p520 against the old HP with intel 5500 installation - got video glitches before). nouveau 1.0.13 ati 7.8 amdgpu 1.20 libva-intel-driver 1.73 libva 1.73 libdrm2.4.74 Mesa: mesa 13.0.2 + llvm 3.8 Kernel: Vanilla kernel-4.8.11 - feel very difficult with it, because of harddrives..hm I will see. Wine: wine-1.8.5 (still need to update requirements) wine-stage 1.9.23 (compiled with my drivers and mesa repo) - gallium 9 + staging + steam - update requirements - Tested: World of Warcraft, Gildwars 2, Tera - HD 6870 , HD 6970 with gallium. intel p520 performce slower, but works. winetricks Other: gimp 2.8.18 (table release) Media: Makemkv 1.10.2 That's it for no. PS: My packages are not signed as always - private work state.

CentOS 6: environment variables and cronjobs ...
by Walter H. 02 Dec '16

02 Dec '16

Hello, in /etc/cron.d/test I've this: 50 15 * * * root ( date ; echo "---" ; env ; echo "---" ; set ) >>/tmp/test.txt and I thought I would be shown environment variables which are defined in e.g. /etc/profiles.d/proxy.sh or /etc/profiles.d/proxy.csh but this isn't like this ... where do I have to define e.g. export http_proxy="http://proxy.local:3128/" in order to have it in cron jobs? Thanks, Walter

I am trying to find how to update CentOS 7 using the DVD. In the past, C6, just insert the DVD, select "install or update" from the boot menu, continue, and later select update and continue... done... reboot. I dont see that on the C7 boot disk. How is that accomplished? Thanks, Jerry

CentOS 6, firefox, PIV cards
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 01 Dec '16

01 Dec '16

Hi, folks, Up until a few weeks ago, it worked as it has been for years: firefox, security device is libcoolkey, and pcscd. Today, I go to use it (I have done updates sine I last used it), and try preferences->advanced->certificates, and it hangs. My most recent try was for over 20 min. If you move something over the window, then move it away, it's a blank window. Pull out the card, and *some* of the time, it pops up the window showing no certs, having never asked for a PIN. The rest of the time, firefox crashes, hard. I know the pcscd part works - I used it via a script this morning from the command line, as does pkcs15-tool from the command line. Anyone got any clues? Maybe I should downgrade (if I can) firefox? mark

Recent updates for CentOS7?
by Robbert Eggermont 01 Dec '16

01 Dec '16

Hi, I noticed there have not been any new updates for CentOS 7 for four weeks now (at least not under http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/updates/x86_64/) For Centos 6 updates have been released more recently (i.e. the Firefox-45.5.0 update). I was not able to find any information about this "pause". Is this planned, and when will new updates be released?

Why the Internet is so insecure
by Alice Wonder 30 Nov '16

30 Nov '16

https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/2119 Major flaw in how the specification for window.opener() works resulting in a major phishing vulnerability that is cake to pull off. The right solution isn't considered because it would break compatibility with the few number sites that depend upon the broken specification even though it would be simple for those sites to implement a secure method. So instead the entire web is left with an extremely poor default and a crappy solution that won't be implemented by a large number of sites. And that's why the Internet will remain a playground for con artists for years to come. I've lost faith in the W3C. It's useless, time for a fork and a new standards body. Seriously. BTW - the fix that W3C does endorse, the rel="noopener" attribute, if that's the best the W3C is willing to do, Red Hat better make sure it makes it into the ESR version of FireFox they ship or it will be vulnerable for some time. The broken fix the W3C endorses isn't even set to make it into standard FireFox until FireFox 52. Which is odd because it is a serious security vulnerability. I'm worried it won't make it into ESR FireFox for some time. ESR often lags on features.

Outliner plugin for editor
by H 27 Nov '16

27 Nov '16

I am currently running not only Geany (on CentOS and on Windows) but also Gedit on CentOS, much of the use is as markdown-editors being a recent convert to this language. I would, however, also like to be able to essentially use it as an outliner - remember the old DOS outliners that were great for creating document outlines? It would have been perfect had I been able to fold and unfold sections of whatever markdown document I am working on in Geany or Gedit but sadly that does not seem possible... Nor have I been able to find a plugin for Gedit or Geany that would add that functionality. I do not want to have to use LibreOffice or something similar, it's too heavy and cumbersome. Hoping that someone can steer me to a solution!Thank you.

Off-Topic: Travel Router and Firewall
by H 26 Nov '16

26 Nov '16

This is off-topic and the only connection with CentOS is that the laptop will be running CentOS... I am looking for a travel router/firewall for a number of reasons: - Protect against outside attacks when outside the office/home not relying on whatever protection the laptop/tablet/phone offers. - Allow for fast transfer for data between devices without being limited by the bandwidth of the hotel etc., even without being connected to the internet. - Allow for multiple devices even when the hotel etc. only allows one device to be registered. The ideal device should: - Be small, ideally be able to be charged via a USB port. - Use open-source software that the user can update. - Allow the user to log on the device and set up the connection with the hotel etc. which often requires a userid and password to be entered on a browser page. - Allow using either a RJ-45 wired or wireless connection to the outside net. - Have at least two RJ-45 ports to connect a laptop avoiding WiFi. - Allow for VPN tunneling. If anyone has suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated!

linux-3.10.0-514.el7.tar.xz - process of creation
by Staazul 25 Nov '16

25 Nov '16

I try to create own patch for kernel, and I look in process of generation binary rpm file. As I can see, for creation binary package, rpmbuild doesn't uses any set of patches and doesn't uses file of original (vanilla) version of kernel. Instead it, I see some xz archive of compressed tree of kernel probably with all changes (linux-3.10.0-514.el7.tar.xz). How and where I can find process of creation of this archive and to see separately all set of patches? I want to remove some changes and add own. Many thanks to all, who have such info and can give link on process or link on documentations of process of creation of this archive. best regards, Andrei upwork.link

Pacemaker bugs?
by Andreas Haumer 25 Nov '16

25 Nov '16

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi! I think I stumbled on at least two bugs in the CentOS 7.2 pacemaker package, though I'm not quite sure if or where to report it. I'm using the following package to set up a 2-node active/passive cluster: [root@clnode1 ~]# rpm -q pacemaker pacemaker-1.1.13-10.el7_2.4.x86_64 The installation is up-to-date on both nodes as of the current PIT. I have currently the following cluster resources running: [root@clnode2 ~]# pcs status Cluster name: rucluster1 Last updated: Fri Nov 25 11:26:51 2016 Last change: Fri Nov 25 10:51:32 2016 by root via cibadmin on clnode1 Stack: corosync Current DC: clnode2 (version 1.1.13-10.el7_2.4-44eb2dd) - partition with quorum 2 nodes and 12 resources configured Online: [ clnode1 clnode2 ] Full list of resources: p_ip_cluster (ocf::heartbeat:IPaddr2): Started clnode2 Master/Slave Set: ms_drbd_r0 [p_drbd_r0] Masters: [ clnode2 ] Slaves: [ clnode1 ] p_fs_drbd1 (ocf::heartbeat:Filesystem): Started clnode2 p_apache (ocf::heartbeat:apache): Started clnode2 p_dhcpd (ocf::heartbeat:dhcpd): Started clnode2 p_named (ocf::heartbeat:named): Started clnode2 p_slapd (ocf::heartbeat:slapd): Started clnode2 p_postgres (ocf::heartbeat:pgsql): Started clnode2 p_nmb (systemd:nmb): Started clnode2 p_smb (systemd:smb): Started clnode2 p_winbind (systemd:winbind): Started clnode2 PCSD Status: clnode1: Online clnode2: Online Daemon Status: corosync: active/enabled pacemaker: active/enabled pcsd: active/enabled The first bug is rather serious, though a workaround exists! The cluster works fine, but as soon as I add a cluster resource of class "service", the cluster manager software runs havoc on node failover. In that situation, the lrmd process hangs in an infinite loop (neither strace nor ltrace show any outout so it seems to be an internal loop without any system or library call) and almost any call to the cluster manager software (crmsh or pcs) runs into a timeout. It's quite hard to recover the whole cluster from this situation. When I replace the resource class "service" with resource class "systemd", everything seems to work just fine. I found a rather old, already closed bug for Fedora which looks similar: <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1117151> Another bug seems to be rather minor: I see following assertions in the corosync logs: Nov 25 11:13:56 [3206] clnode1 crmd: error: crm_abort: pcmkRegisterNode: Triggered assert at xml.c:594 : node->type == XML_ELEMENT_NODE They seem to be related with the drbd resource, but do not cause any functional problem it seems. For this particular problem I found the following patch: <https://github.com/ClusterLabs/pacemaker/commit/68c7506aa84c69e5f425ef5f302…> Are these already known bugs? (I searched the CentOS bugzilla site but couldn't find any ticket describing these bugs) Any advise on if or where I should report it?

Headless Centos 7 "File and Print Server" install - configure WIFI
by Gary Stainburn 24 Nov '16

24 Nov '16

Google has done it's usual job and returned lots of results but not led me to a solution. I've just build a Centos 7 "File and Print Server" config, i.e. no screen/keyboard/mouse and no GUI installed. The LAN connection has worked out of the box and I can SSH into the server without issue. However, I cannot find out how to configure the WIFI connection which I need in order to provide Air Print services. I'm using a USB dongle which the kernel has recognised and provides me with a device. I can use that device to scan for available WIFI networks. What I can't do is configure a connection so that the server can connect to the the WIFI network. Can anyone help with a link to suitable instructions?

Hi, I just setup CentOS 7 on three boxes to fiddle with it. 1. amandine.sandbox.lan is a headless LAN server 2. bernadette.sandbox.lan is a client desktop 3. raymonde.sandbox.lan is another client desktop I've setup Dnsmasq on amandine.sandbox.lan. Here's the very basic configuration: # /etc/dnsmasq.conf domain-needed bogus-priv interface=enp3s1 dhcp-range=192.168.3.100,192.168.3.200,24h local=/sandbox.lan/ domain=sandbox.lan expand-hosts no-resolv # DNS server=192.168.2.1 # Postes fixes dhcp-host=00:1E:C9:43:A7:BF,bernadette,192.168.3.2 dhcp-host=00:1D:09:15:4A:D8,raymonde,192.168.3.3 With this setup as such, I can resolve bernadette from raymonde, and I can also resolve raymonde from bernadette. But when I try to resolve either bernadette or raymonde from the server, I get an unknown hostname. The only way to solve this is to add two corresponding lines to /etc/hosts: # /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.3.1 amandine.sandbox.lan amandine 192.168.3.2 bernadette.sandbox.lan bernadette 192.168.3.3 raymonde.sandbox.lan raymonde This strikes me as a benign redundancy, which makes me wonder if I'm doing something unorthodox here. Any suggestions? Niki -- Microlinux - Solutions informatiques durables 7, place de l'église - 30730 Montpezat Web : http://www.microlinux.fr Mail : info(a)microlinux.fr Tél. : 04 66 63 10 32

C6: latest util-linux-ng dependency on kernel?
by tony＠softins.co.uk 23 Nov '16

23 Nov '16

I am just applying the latest C6 updates to a couple of KVM Linodes. It appears that the latest update of util-linux-ng has added a new dependency on the kernel package. On these VMs, the kernel package is not normally installed, and the VM runs a host-supplied kernel. But now, a "yum update" wants to install for dependencies kernel, kernel-firmware and grubby, none of which should be necessary in this environment. I have allowed it on one Linode and rebooted it. All seems ok and it is still running the host-supplied kernel, but it still grates that an unused kernel should have been required to be installed. Is this an error in util-linux-ng, or a real new requirement?

> Alternatively Precision Workstations would do. If that's the route you go, on outlet.dell.com you can filter for just those by choosing Outlet for Work (if you watch the banners at the top you can often squeeze an additional 20%-30% off the already discounted - from the 'build your own' - prices... enough to pay for 3 or 4 year Pro Support Plus coverage, which provides next-day repair service... the 'plus' includes even accidental damage). Be aware though, their Thunderbolt 3 ports might not yet be supported by even C7 unless you're willing to compile new kernels yourself with the proper options enabled (sorry - not sure exactly which options are required). A query about Thunderbolt 3 support in C6 at centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=57927 asked back in May has yet to attract a response. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S5

Centos 7 and Kably lake: black screen
by Louis Lagendijk 19 Nov '16

19 Nov '16

I got a new laptop as my old one died: an HP Probook 470 G4. I installed Centos 7 1511. The laptop has a Kaby Lake i5 CPU and an 01:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 134e (rev a2). Fedora recognizes it as a GM108M/930MX. This may give some hints, but it is not that the standard kernel does not support it, this output comes from the 4.8.7 mainline kernel which should support this configuration? GM108 support was added in kernel 4.7, Kaby lake support was added in 4.5... When I boot nothing shows up after the UEFI Grub menu: the system runs but nothing is shown on the display, except for a non-blinking cursor in the upper left of the screen. I tried a number of things: - Installed the latest ml-kernel from Elrepo (4.8.7-1) - I also tried the following on the kernel commandline: nomodeset i915.nomodeset=0 nouveau.modeset=0 Nothing changes the fact that there is no display. I had to install Centos 7 using vnc as even a text install did not work Does anybody have some idea what the cause could be and what to try next? /Louis

kde-runtime fails to install on Custom ISO due to dependency error
by Maheshwari, Shagun 19 Nov '16

19 Nov '16

Hi, I have built successfully all the dependent packages of kde-runtime. Following is the list of RPMs cloned and built from GIT:- kde-runtime-4.10.5-8.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm kde-runtime-drkonqi-4.10.5-8.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm kde-runtime-libs-4.10.5-8.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm kde-baseapps-4.10.5-4.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm kde-baseapps-libs-4.10.5-4.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm However, when we copy these RPMS to our ISO, anaconda installer fails to install due to dependency error: package: kde-baseapps-4.10.5-4.el7.centos.x86_64 unresolved deps: kde-runtime >= 0:4.14.8 On GIT kde-runtime has 4.10.5 latest version. How is it possible, to get this error, how come package is not satisfying minimum dependency ? If i do yumdownloader for all these above RPMs, then i get following RPMs without "centos" name:- kde-runtime-4.10.5-8.el7.x86_64.rpm kde-runtime-drkonqi-4.10.5-8.el7.x86_64.rpm kde-runtime-libs-4.10.5-8.el7.x86_64.rpm kde-baseapps-4.10.5-4.el7.x86_64.rpm kde-baseapps-libs-4.10.5-4.el7.x86_64.rpm If i copy paste above RPMS to my custom ISO, then anaconda successfully installs these packages, without any errors.

Modern FireFox on CentOS 7
by Alice Wonder 18 Nov '16

18 Nov '16

No idea who this will be useful for, but starting with FireFox 49 I have been running a modern FireFox with CentOS 7. I needed to in order to play with the new Service Worker based Push API but it has other things FireFox 45 ESR doesn't have - such as working html5 details/summary tags - which I make us when a page needs a Table of Contents, for example.

So I don't apply that patch, X11 Linux in the UA string is enough information on its own. Hope this is helpful to someone, but of course remember that when CentOS is using an older version, you won't benefit from security patch updates to CentOS. Have to watch Fedora to know when its time to download another src.rpm that includes the fixes. So only use this over CentOS FireFox if you really need it.

CentOS 7 + KDE - default keyboard layout?
by Nicolas Kovacs 18 Nov '16

18 Nov '16

Hi, I'm currently fiddling with CentOS 7 and KDE 4.14, and I must say, I'm pleasantly surprised. This is one of the cleanest implementations of KDE I've ever seen, and with some tweaking (a lot, in fact) this can be turned into a highly functional desktop with all the bling and bells and whistles. But right now, I have some minor problems to solve. First things first. My system is installed in French, with a swiss french keyboard (fr_CH-latin1) as default. This works OK in console mode, but when KDE launches the first time, the default keyboard is US, and there's a french (fr-latin1) alternative configured. In my humble opinion, this looks like a minor bug, because the default keyboard should be the same as the one defined in the installer. Now I know this can be changed easily, but I'm planning to use this in a few production environments like our local school. Which would mean I have to log into every single account to switch the keyboard layout manually. Now I wonder if this can't be done by the way of a profile in /etc/skel. I've already created a custom user profile for my users, to be put in /etc/skel. I have a little script that puts all these in the right place: https://github.com/kikinovak/centos/tree/master/el7/kde If I create a few custom keyboard layouts in KDE (say french, swiss french and german), are these stored somewhere locally in ~/.kde/share? I searched around a bit, but couldn't find the place. Any suggestions?

Kindly answer. Regards, Shagun

Authconfig package fails verification using RPM
by Maheshwari, Shagun 18 Nov '16

18 Nov '16

Hi, I tried executing the rpm -V command on the packages of the CentOS 7.2 ISO which I have created, the verification failed for some of them. Here is the log for 'authconfig' : Steps: 1. Execute command : rpm -V authconfig 2. Observe the output Expected Result: If there is no error, nothing should be displayed Actual Result: Verification fails with following error log: S.5....T.c /etc/sysconfig/authconfig -When I uninstalled the package and re-installed it using YUM, the verification for the same passed.- -When I executed the same command on the same package of CentOS-7-x86_64-Everything-1511.iso the verification failed. So, I concluded that the problem is not with my ISO as the same is failing for standard ISO also. Please provide info on what this -V option actually does, and why these verification is failing for even the standard rpms. Is that a flaw ???? Regards, Shagun

Sound restored
by j_post 18 Nov '16

18 Nov '16

Passing on this information in case it may be useful to others. Some months ago I posted a message about my sound on CentOS 6.8 no longer working. I'd done considerable research on the net and found no useful information on the cause. The sound worked if I booted from a live DVD of CentOS 6.8, but not when I booted from the hard drive. Recently during a system update that included a new kernel there where some very interesting messages from yum about the problem but no information that helped with a solution. Someone else recently posted a message with the same output from yum. None of the suggestions helped with my computer though. Then, just on a whim, I logged in as root and the sound worked, but only if I logged in as root. Long story short: Copying the files in /root/.pulse to my home .pulse directory solved the problem. I now have sound! I have no idea how those files in ~/.pulse got changed. It would be interesting to know if anyone has any ideas. (And, no, I did not do any messing around with system configuration by any means, so that's not how the files got changed.) Jeff
