I've been out of pocket for a while, so don't shoot me, if this has
already been brought up. I'm having a problem with my desktop freezing
up, and I'm running Cent OS 6. It seems to happen while I'm running
firefox. I'm not sure if it's firefox, or the OS that's locking up.
When it freezes up,

This isn't specifically about cent os, but I am running cent os on
this machine. I've got a Dell Dimension 2400 desktop pc. I've tried on a
number of occasions to put a second hard drive in the machine, but I
can't get the machine to recognize the second drive in BIOS. I'm going
to try and kee
I've seen the posts over and over again about "when is 6 going to
be out?" I appreciate the time the developers put in to make cent os
available.
My main question about when is 6 going to be out is, does it
really matter? 5.5 works just fine, so if it's not broke, why fix it?

I have a question on burning dvd iso's, using k3b.
I have a sony dvd rw, and I've burned cd's with now problem, including
iso's. The problem I'm having is, when I burn a dvd iso, k3b says it's a
success, but then when I re-insert the disk, the drive tries to read the
disk, but the read/write
I do have one question about Cent OS 6.
Sonetimes back, I remember reading that the plan was to spread the iso's
over multiple cd's, rather than put it all on 1 dvd. Is that still the
plan? As far as when it's released, I say take all the time you need.
I'd rather have an os that works, than so
I recently acquired a Fujitsu Lifebook 1610. Unfortunately, the
machine was missing a lot of the stuff that would've come with it brand
new, mainly the usb cdrom drive.
Currently, I'm running Fedora on it, and I installed it using a
usb flash drive with the help of a program called unet

I know this is off topic, so please accept my apologies. This is
just out of curiosity, and a number of people I've talked to in the area
I live in have said the same thing. About 2 weeks ago, my one remaining

I'm just curious if any one else has noticed this. I've bought
hard drives from both Walmart and Best Buy. If I can wait, I order them
from newegg.com. I'm beginning to think that the staff at both Walmart
and Best Buy, somewhere along the supply line must dribble the drives
like basket balls
OK, I've figured out which drive is bad. Before I go any further
let me give a brief HD configuration explanation.
The primary IDE has a 80gig(Master) HD, and an internal zip drive(Slave)
connected to it. The two 200gig Hard Drives are connect to a PCI ATA
controller card(Not a promise card),
In my Cent OS machine, I have 3 hard drives, an 80, and two 200gig
hard drives. One of the drives is obviously starting to fail, but I'm
not sure which one. Is there a command line command in Linux that will
check the drive integrity on all the hard drives and tell me which one
is going bad?

I have a quick question.
The board and CPU that I'm using in one of my machines was given
to me. I didn't take the time to look up the info on the board or
anything. I was busy, so I just put the board in a pc case, hooked
everything up, and loaded the os on the machine.
I didn't
Just out of curiosity, has anyone noticed a problem that has
developed with firefox? This started on both of my machines after the
newest updates. I'll be at a website, even the mozilla website, and when
I click on a link to go to another part of the site or to download a
file, Firefox will
Currently I'm using an NV34(Geforce FX 5500). It's a PCI card, and it
has both SVGA and DVI outputs. I don't know if both outputs will work at
once, but I don't see why not. The card is working fine for me. Sorry,
but I don't have a second one to sell, but that should give you a
starting point.
Does anyone here on the list, that lives in the U.S. have a spare
wireless pci card that they know will work with Cent OS 5. If you have
one, and would consider selling it, contact me at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and lets see what we can work out.
Thanks
