Re: [CentOS] Confused about Java browser plugin for Firefox
Hi, I missed the most posts of the thread so let me say those few words. First of all I use Java or OpenOffice.org from producers' websites. They are always "fresh" and installable in RHEL. I assume too, that the i386 and amd64 versions work the same way, only the lib names can be different. Thirdly, I cannot say now what method I used lately but either of them worked flawlessly. I installed Scientific Linux (CentOS) several times without any snags. So, 1. The latest Java is attached to the latest OpenOffice.org RPMs. http://download.openoffice.org/other.html 2. Java RPM can be downloaded from Oracle page: http://www.java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp?locale=en&host=www.java.com test Java: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml Java directory with Java libs and plugins: /usr/java/jre1.6.0_21/lib/amd64 I use to place OpenOffice.org in /opt directory. Java is installed here: /opt/openoffice.org/ure It must be working as it always worked here. ;-) Best regards, Przemysław Pawełczyk -- >>> Please do NOT Cc me on Mailing Lists <<< Przemysław Pawełczyk (P2O2) [pron.

Typical Linux directory /usr/share/mozilla/plugins does not work here. The right place for plugins in RHEL amd64, as in my 64bit example, is: /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins. I had to find out that because the libnpjp2.so library wasn't placed in user's ~/.mozilla/plugins directory and what made me so confused wondering why my Firefox 3.6.11 read the java pages without the library! :-) Summing up - the best way to find out what works or why something doesn't is a "small step approach" - trying to make use of the latest libs or apps from developers websites - not from the main repos for our system releases.

Thank you Lamar, I have spent some time googling and learning the concepts that you mention. I'm not much closer to a solution to this issue, but I have a much better understanding of IP networks.

CentOS5 supports 31 characters for user names (I tested it). 8 character limits for user names was a holdover from some truly ancient Unix systems and has been pretty much irrelevant to Linux for more than ten years. There is no reason I can think of to limit user names in Linux to 8 characters now unless you need to inter-operate account logins with an old Unix box that still has that limit. -- Benjamin Franz ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

There are some minor side effects. For example, from "man ps" If the length of the username is greater than the length of the display column, the numeric user ID is displayed instead.

Hi, Are you 100% sure that your timezone file (/etc/localtime) corresponds to the one Australia/Melbourne? Try this: diff /etc/localtime /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/Melbourne Besides that, try to see if there's any script within /etc that tries to set the TZ variable somewhere as it seems it is trying to set your system time to flat UTC. If I understand correctly, your hardware clock indeed is storing "localtime" as seen on the output when you are booting... but as soon as ntpd kicks in, it sets the system time to UTC (which is 11 hours behind your localtime). Right? HTH, Jorge ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] Does "yum update tzdata" update /etc/localtime?
Hi list. Does "yum update tzdata" update /etc/localtime or does this need to be done manually?

Re: [CentOS] kernel bug ?

This message is useless to solve problem without Linux developer. Every high load and small trouble machine represents this message. It seems hard disk trouble or memory error. If your disk has write-error happened, retry sequences will be run at, firmware(in HDD), physical driver(in Linux), Logical driver(in Linux scsi) and swapd (in application). Over of 120sec of total these retry sequences, the kernel prints this message in console. you have to change some hardware (hard-disk, memory, cpu, mother-board.) HDD errors and memory errors sometimes be fixed in automatically, You can't reproduce this errors again. > Reading later release of kernel did not mention this bug. Upstream/CentOS community will not release this software fix. :-) Tsuyoshi ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

GTK (Gimp Tool Kit) is a graphic library originally designed for Gimp, and needed by a series of graphical applications. GTK1 (gtk+-1.2.10) is the old version of GTK, needed by GTK1 applications like XMMS, for example, with all those grey and unsexy menus. As for the gtk2-2.10.4 package, it's one of those packages that are really behind in CentOS. The consequence of that is for example that GIMP can't be offered in a version greater than 2.2. My advice : wait for CentOS 6.0 with a more recent GTK2. Cheers, Niki ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
