Hi All, smplayer has no mailing list. I tried to register at http://forum.smplayer.info/ucp.php?mode=register but the capchas are so incredibly impossible to discern that I gave up after 5 tries. I tried the audio option, but the audio option plays so garbled it is impossible to understand. My audio is great. I play youtube vids with great clarity. So I am hoping someone who is on that forum to inform the registration web page's designer to do something about this problem.
Thanx to all who show some info on how to get this done.
Just keep clicking on the little refresh button to the right of the image until you get one that you can easily decipher. Just tried this and 5/10 were ok.

because you are using thunderbird email client, i will presume that you are using firefox web browser.
if so, try in main menu;
View -> Zoom
look for;
[ ] Zoom Text Only
if it is [X], uncheck it.
return to page, press <ctrl> then <+> key on numeric pad until you have *captcha* enlarged enough to read and enter letters/numbers shown.
after entry, <ctrl+0> returns to normal view. do what you wish with 'zoom' setting.
hth.

I have been running yum (not yumex because it takes too long to fill up it's menus). I do not get any issues with time setting at all.
That said, I wonder if centos has a counterpart to fedup, so that I can upgrade to centos 7.5.
Cheers,
Joe

AFAIK, nothing that's supported. There's the tool available here: http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/CentOSUpgradeTool ... but it can leave your system in a broken state.
(I'm assuming you mean migrating from CentOS6 to CentOS7. I have no idea what CentOS 7.5 is. Typo?)

Yes, I meant to type 7.x (thinking that there might be newer releases.
How hard would it be to port fedup to Centos?

I believe - what's it called, preup? - exists. I'll also note that the overwhelming opinion is DON'T USE IT.
One good reason: from one full release of an enterprise o/s to the next, there are many major upgrades - packages goind from, say, 4 to 6, and the odds are that will break your system, or what you run on it. This is one reason that /home, and other locations for data are on separate partitions - when you upgrade, you tell it install, custom install, format /boot and /, and you won't lose anything.
Counter example: torque, a cluster software package that we use heavily, in the middle of CentOS 6.6, which is from EPEL, *suddenly*, with no warning, went from 2.5.x to 4.2, which broke all of our clustering, and killed a number of large jobs. We had to downgrade (and that was, um, interesting, since EPEL did not see fit to either name the new package something like torque4, and didn't leave the old one around to allow an easy downgrade. Fortunately, we have a local mirror.....
Now think of upgrading from 6 to 7, and having something like that hit you.

That's depressing !! Reason I asked is because the centos7 release DVD does not support my NVIDIA Corporation G98M [Quadro NVS 160M] (rev a1) card. It is incredibly strange that it is supported by Centos 6.4 which installed from DVD without a hitch.

Can you please fix your clock on the computer where you write your list mails?

My system clock is running on Standard Mountain time, and so is my HW clock. I do not set the HW clock to Universal time. Why is this a problem? My clock is just a few seconds skewed from actual time, depending on the system load.

Here's the timestamp of your message:

It is actually about 86400 seconds ahead...

My computer clock is only seconds ahead of my phone, which is timed to the cellular provider's ntp server. My system time shows pretty muc same time as other local clocks and watches with people around me. So, not sure how I can change that. Our time here is the Mountain Standard Time with DST (ala Denver, Coloado, USA). My "location" in the system clock is set to MST. OS's TZ is set to MST7DST But in the summer DST makes it -0600 instead of -0700 ??? Not sure.

Your clock is an entire day ahead of your cell phone, unless you're emailing us from the future.
If you are emailing from the future, is it like the Jetsons? Are there flying cars? That'd be awesome.

1 day ahead?? According to whose clock?? Locally I have the right time for my locale. As I stated, my HW clock is also set to the time of my timezone (i.e. not universal time). I just confirmed with others sitting arround in the lounge. My system time is about 9 seconds off on average with other people's laptops in the lounge.
