fix firefox?
by Paul Bijnens 26 Sep '08

26 Sep '08

I once had firefox x86_64 installed (because it was the default). But that one has problems with plugins (flash, java), which are much easily solved by using the i386 version. So I unstalled firefox, and installed it again using: yum install firefox.i386 This worked, and even the plugins worked fine afterwards. I did have some problems when uninstalling, because yum insisted on a whole load of dependencies going up to uninstalling the package 'firstboot' (wow!). However I can't remember the exact details anymore. I do not remember having to force anything; just reinstall a little bit more than I was expecting to. I do remember that after the erase/install, no particular problems were left and I used firefox since then without any problems. Today came the update for firefox 3.0.2. So I did "yum update". The depencies included xulrunner and devhelp. However, yum complained about a conflict between xulrunner 1.9.0.1 being incompatible. So I erased xulrunner first (yum erase xulrunner). And then installed firefox again: yum install firefox.i386 it pulls in xulrunner as well, but two different versions for two different architectures (???): ============================================================================= Package Arch Version Repository Size ============================================================================= Installing: firefox i386 3.0.2-3.el5.centos updates 11 M Installing for dependencies: xulrunner x86_64 1.9.0.2-5.el5 updates 10 M xulrunner i386 1.9.0.1-1.el5_2 updates 10 M and afterwards firefox complains: $ firefox Could not find compatible GRE between version 1.9.0.2 and 1.9.0.2.

Install via VNC
by Robert Moskowitz 25 Sep '08

25 Sep '08

This sounds very interesting: http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/VncHeadlessInstall It would get me around my limitations on the screen on the OQO. And the instructions read rather well. Only thing I don't know how to do is have vncviewer in 'listen' mode.

This is one of those topics that lots of people have rather strong feelings about and threads discussing it almost always seem to go out of control. The suggestion to end the thread generally comes when an argument starts going around in circles resolving nothing. Generic mail questions are always welcome here. Of course, more specific questions should be directed to the proper MTA-specific mailing list. -- Bowie

vncviwer in listen mode poer number
by Robert Moskowitz 25 Sep '08

25 Sep '08

I am working on the Centos wiki instructions for doing an install via vnc: http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/VncHeadlessInstall CD is all burned and ready to go. I then thought about the viewer settings particularly the port number and firewall rules. When I connect vncviewer to a vncserver it uses port(s) 590n where n is the display number. OK, is that what happens when a server connects back to a -listen viewer? Seems not. According to the man page, it seems the default is port 5500, so I have to open up this port on the 'client' system and of course allow it through my internal firewall (or put the install system on the same subnet as the client and not the one with the repo server). Do I this figured out right?
