KDE vs Gnome
by Chris Peikert 07 Apr '06

07 Apr '06

I think im using Gnome but im not sure. As for using logout command it didn't work that's why I got puzzled and had to ask online since I couldn't find the GUI one which was there but apparently im too blind to see. Speaking of GUI side of things that's why I made the comment about no search features in CentOS. None of my menus offer a search feature in the GUI so I would have to research the command line search feature. I know its FIND but I couldn't figure out how to pull up the Help info on FIND to figure out how to use it. As for the HELP option in the GUI strangly it doesn't contain any information so I would assume it didn't get loaded in the Install. As for the Manuals like I stated before.I just got the valid link last night to the right manuals and I am in the process of printing them out. Im a newb to Linux and so far Linux has not been newb friendly even though the people are. Finding Newb Linux info isn't easy either that's why I been mainly using this mail list. I know I know everyone says to use Google and if I would of found it on Google I wouldn't of asked here. Hopefully as I learn Linux more I will know how to search for the information better to get the answers I am looking for. My next quest is to figure out how to tell if certain hardware drivers are loaded and if not how to download and load em. I been doing everything from basic install and when I noticed the NIC Card was working without having to do anything else I stopped there. Now that I have the manuals printed or will soon I will go through everything to see what there is to see. Thanks again.

SELinux policy change in new update?
by Toby Schaefer 07 Apr '06

07 Apr '06

Hello all, I’ve recently run some updates on my CentOS4 installation via yum, and about a week after putting them into production I’m getting the follow reports in logwatch: WARNING: Kernel Errors Present audit(1144312701.146:806): avc: denied { ioctl } for pid=7589 comm="wget" name="error_log" dev=dm-0 in...: 1 Time(s) audit(1144312701.146:807): avc: denied { ioctl } for pid=7589 comm="wget" name="error_log" dev=dm-0 in...: 1 Time(s) audit(1144312722.110:808): avc: denied { ioctl } for pid=7595 comm="perl" name="error_log" dev=dm-0 in...: 1 Time(s) audit(1144312743.210:809): avc: denied { ioctl } for pid=7601 comm="perl" name="error_log" dev=dm-0 in...: 1 Time(s) audit(1144312747.159:810): avc: denied { ioctl } for pid=7603 comm="perl" name="error_log" dev=dm-0 in...: 1 Time(s) Was this caused by a recent update? My tripwire logs don’t show anything funny going on, and otherwise the server hasn’t changed a bit. Any help, insight, or RTFM's would be greatly appreciated. :) Thanks, Toby

Chances of 4.3+ version with latest kernel
by Jerry Geis 07 Apr '06

07 Apr '06

All, I had a terrible time installing 4.2 on an ASUS NFORCE x86_64 motherboard. I did manage to get it working... Also the compaq V4000 laptop same issues. I thought I would try 4.3 and see if it was better... Seems to be the same really. All the "fixes" the kernel needs were not included in the 4.3 kernel. What are the changes of a 4.3+ version that runs a 2.6.16 kernel? I know this is not compatible to RH stuff but it sure would be sweet! The centos team is doing a great job. Again... just a thought.

Acrobat Reader broken on CentOS 4.3
by Ron Loftin 07 Apr '06

07 Apr '06

I have had Adobe Acrobat Reader 7.0.1 installed on my CentOS 4.2 desktop and it worked fine. After upgrading to 4.3, I can't get it to come up anymore. I downloaded Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 and it does the same. I'd appreciate any suggestions on what to look for, since the executable and the startup scripts are not giving me any useful errors to chase. -- Ron Loftin reloftin(a)twcny.rr.com "God, root, what is difference ?"

MySQL 4.1 on CentOS 3
by Craig White 07 Apr '06

07 Apr '06

Have a situation where I am either going to have to update entire system to CentOS 4 (don't want to do that) or install MySQL 4 on CentOS 3 system. I can see rpm's for RHEL 3 on MySQL's web site. I didn't see any packages for MySQL 4 in dev.centos.org or centosplus so I would suspect that the MySQL site is where I should get them. Anybody recommend otherwise? Other than doing an dump of all the db's prior to installing, should I do anything else? Craig

How to query the new style mirrorlist ?
by Steven Shiau 07 Apr '06

07 Apr '06

Hi, >From CentOS 4.3, I saw the yum repository setting /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo is something like: -------------------- mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch… -------------------- Is that possible I can query the result by lynx ? I have a script to get the URL and path in old yum repository style, but broken in this. When I use "lynx http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=4.3&arch=i386&repo=os", it shows me "4.3 hasnt been released yet". I need to get the result like the baseurl style "http://free.nchc.org.tw/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/" or a list of urls. Thanks in advance. -- Steven Shiau
