dumb question: Need to update my GD to include freetype support on CentOS 4.4
by Dale 14 Jan '07

14 Jan '07

Hello, Sorry for what might be a dumb question. I have a CentOS 4.4 machine with GD installed. I tend to prefer doing things via RPM to allow for updating in a easier fashion. I have a php based app that requires Freetype support in GD. This is a live server with many websites on it (although none are using GD at the moment. I am not sure the best/easiest way to get GD updated such that it has Freetype support. I did not install X on this machine as it was not needed. Would installing X be one of the steps I need to take? Thanks for your suggestions. Dale

Switching from Vesa driver to video adapter driver fails
by Edward Diener 14 Jan '07

14 Jan '07

The Vesa driver works fine with CentOS 4.4. I have an NVidia 6200 video adapter. I go to Applications | System Settings | Display | Hardware tab and find my video adapter in the list and set it. The dialog tells me I have to log out for it to take effect, so I duly do that. I then getting a message from a non-graphics screen saying that the attempt to switch to the video adapter failed. When I view why, amidst all the information given is the messages: (EE) No devices detected. Fatal server error: No screens found I am able to switch back to the Vesa driver through the non-graphics screen, and this brings me back to my graphics login and I am once again successfully in CentOS 4.4 using the Vesa driver. Does anybody have any idea what the messages above mean or how I can correct it so it can successfully load my video adapter specific settings ? The NVidia 6200 is definitely on the Hardware tab menu, that is my video adapter, and I have the latest Xorg updates for CentOS 4.4.

nfsv4 in centos?
by R Lists06 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

Greetings Some time ago I briefly played with NFS. More recently with Samba. What I am wondering is if NFSv4 is already integrated into Centos 4 from upstream. Reference: http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/reviews/6331/1/ if not, is there a timeline? Centos 5 ? and... is or can NFS be a compatible yet better replacement for Samba? thanks - rh -- Robert - Abba Communications Computer & Internet Services (509) 624-7159 - www.abbacomm.net

by Joachim Backes 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

Hi, I installed centos-4.4 on x86_64, and I wanted to install nx and freenx from the centos extras. But yum list available '*nx* gives me only yum list available '*nx*' Setting up repositories Reading repository metadata in from local files Available Packages lynx.x86_64 2.8.5-18.2 base Question: How, by using yum, can I install i386-packages or noarch-packages on a x86_64 centos? Any help appreciated.

NX problems with centos 4.4
by Joachim Backes 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

Hi, using centos 4.4, and freenx-0.5.0-10.c4 and nx-1.5.0-1.centos4 on a 8 CPU Amd Opteron system. If I access this system by nxclient-1.5.0 from some workstation (FC6) with Gnome desktop, then after a successful login the X11 windows have no windowmanager frame, so a handling of the X11 windows is very difficult. This effect does not appear when acessing the centos system by xdm. Is this a known issue? All comments are appreciated.
