Help with Dell Latitude, CentOS 5, and intel 3945abg wireless
by Scott Ehrlich 29 Sep '07

29 Sep '07

I've visited several web pages, including Dell's, for help in getting the wireless card activated. lspci shows it, but iwconfig doesn't list it. I also visited linux.dell.com and downloaded and installed the 64-bit Fedora 7 RPMs, but couldn't get anywhere. dellwirelessctl also doesn't show up anywhere. I'm running a fully updated kernel/distro. What am I missing? Thanks. Scott

I am building a Centos machine for a specific piece of third party software. Can I assume that the IA64 verson of CENTOS 4.5 will run on this CPU? Are there any differences in basic libraries between 4.0 and 4.5? Art Edwards

FYI CentOS-5, SElinux and OpenOffice-2.3
by James B. Byrne 28 Sep '07

28 Sep '07

I have installed OOo 2.3 on CentOS-5. Everything seems to work but I had to locate the item reproduced below. Since this is a vital modification I reproduce it here so that it gets a wider audience. FYI: OOo 2.3.0 and SELinux: "no suitable windowing system found, exiting." OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2.3.0 is incompatible with the SELinux technology activated by default in Fedora 7, Fedora Core 6 (and older) and Red Hat Linux system (and, optionally, in other Linux-based systems): see http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=80816 for more information and current situation. Symptoms: * If OpenOffice.org is started from the GUI, it simply doesn't start. * If OpenOffice.org is started from the command line, the error message no suitable windowing system found, exiting. is displayed and OpenOffice.org exists immediately. The best resolution so far consists in setting the proper security context: execute (as root or with sudo privileges) # chcon -t textrel_shlib_t libvclplug_gen680li.so.1.1 in the program directory in your OOo installation. A more radical resolution is disabling SELinux altogether (requires root/sudo privileges): * Command line (as root): # setenforce 0 * GUI: System -> Administration -> Firewall and SELinux -> set "Permissive" mode. Note that, with the default configuration, SELinux will be restored in "Enforcing" mode upon reboot or instalaltion of a new kernel if you change it via the command-line utility.

Newbie: how to install from Windows?
by Labaki 28 Sep '07

28 Sep '07

Hello! I just joined this mailing list a couple of minutes ago. I'll start to use CentOS for academic purposes. We'll try to build a cluster based in machines with this OS. First of all, I'd like to beg you for patience, because I'm comple- tly new in Linux. My first question is: every tutorial on installation talks about inserting an installation CD, but I'm not sure about what do it means... I've downloaded the four files .iso availabe in CentOS.org, but I don't know what to do with them. Should I burn this files into de CD the way they are? Should I unzip them before this? Details: I'm using Windows, trying to install CentOS 4 in a 32 bit's PC. I've downloaded CentOS-4.5-i386-bin.......iso. Thank you for any help! ~ J.
