What kind of answers are you looking for?

Perhaps installing a missing font solves the problem with evince.
You could try mupdf, xpdf and qpdfview to see if one of them can
display the PDFs you have.  Unfortunately, none of them are included
in Centos.  That leaves gimp --- can it import the PDFs?

Yes, GIMP will read PDFs, but it splits them into separate images.  That 
isn't a major problem if you're simply reading the doc, but if you edit 
it, you'll need something like pdftk to put the separate pages back 
together.


For reading PDFs I've had consistently good results with okular.

For "missing font" errors I've found generally that installing the 
missing font resolves the issue.  Run "yum search font" to chase down 
that possibility.

I believe I saw somewhere that slashdot is having issues at present.  

Ah, googling slashdot having issues brings me this.

We've been having site performance/uptime issues including a DDOS earlier
in the week (Slashdotted?). DevOps working round the clock until we're back
at full capacity. No ETA but hopeful for sometime Saturday. Rumors of our
demise are greatly exaggerated. Thanks for your patience 

that was from their twitter page.

ReaR is Relax-and-Recover tool: http://relax-and-recover.org/

It creates a bootable CD/DVD with all backup content to restore your system.


If you want to fix the label.
/var/log/rear/rear-fcshome.log.lockless default label should be var_log_t.
Then you can run restorecon.
Do
# /sbin/restorecon -v /var/log/rear/rear-fcshome.log.lockless


Try to restore SELinux label to see if that would help.

Re: [CentOS] Addind kmail to EPEL

Currently it looks like KMail has been put in KDE-Pim and not a
seperate package anymore. It seems the repository with it is
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/rdieter/kde4/

OK, did that. we'll see what happens, thanks!

Reading back thru my original I can only guess that I needed sleep,
given the (at least) two horrid typos: sqlinux==>selinux, and madam==>mdadm.
ugh.

thanks again!
