A SATA backplane likely will have a signal bus connector (Suoermicro server backplanes do) but onboard controllers probably won't supply the other end Built servers definitely will as john points out. Better hardware RAID HBAs probably shoild have the complimentary signal bus connector. Make sure your system builder or supplier gets you the right cable bits - i'm pretty sure they're not universal. - csawyer ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Re: [CentOS] nouveau driver one centos 6
Hi, Jerry Try appending 'rdblacklist=nouveau' to the kernel line in grub.conf (and keep the blackist in modules.conf) - install CentOS and reboot as usual - preempt booting at the grub menu and append 'rdblacklist=nouveau 3' to the kernel line to disable nouveau and start up in init 3 - install the Nvidia binary driver. Optionally, do a yum upgrade, reboot back to init 3 and build the driver on the latest kernel - edit grub.conf and remove the '3' and reboot again Nouveau will now stop loading and use your nvidia driver cheers, - cal On 21/07/11 13:08, Jerry Geis wrote: > I "wish" to not load the or even install the nouveau driver by default. > I want to use the NVIDIA binary driver. > > I have tried a number of things: > > 1) in my kickstart package section add the line: > -xorg-x11-drv-nouveau > > This did not work - it was still installed. > > 2) use the nvidia installer and it asks to create a modprobe.conf file > to blacklist > the driver.

The current calligra-dkchart packages provides libcalligrakdchart.so.14. You should file this as a bug in RH bugzilla. Point out kmymoney needs to be rebuilt against the new calligra-* libraries. You could try rebuilding from srpm against the recent calligra-* libraries, but I have no idea how much dependencies you will have to build to accomplish this. Regards, Leonard.

[CentOS] openvpn client and KDE Network Manager - with CentOS7
Hi All, I am switching from Fedora20 to CentOS7 since I now run all my Linux development in a VM and I get a more robust feature set (i.e. shared folders with the host that "just work", etc) The only issue I have thus far is VPN connections. Looking at what's installed on my old Fedora install I suspect I need these packages: kde-plasma-nm-vpnc kde-plasma-nm-openvpn NetworkManager-openvpn NetworkManager-vpnc However none of these are available in CentOS7, Note I have the centos extras and the EPEL repos enabled. I suspect that I need rpmfusion but I don't see that rpmfusion has a repo for CentOS7... Anyone have any thoughts? Can I simply install the centos6 rpmfusion repo?
