If you have oVirt windows guest tools already installed suggestion is to
uninstall it before installing this new installer.

Although I would strongly recommend that you *do not* do this

Download packages

tolua++-1.0.93-24.fc29.i686.rpm

You should be able to find them on rpmfind easily enough... note that
they are all i686! Then just "dnf install" them.

Worked for me.


Thanks for that info. I will give this a try as this only on an 
experimental machine and it will be rebuilt when 8.1 comes out, and 
hopefully epel will be updated by then.

I'm not sure what you read, but CentOS Stream is just going to be
updates from Red Hat that will eventually be incorporated into the
next point release of RHEL and CentOS (non-stream).  The Fedora
involvement is largely upstream from RHEL, although it looks like
there is a roadmap where contributions from the community could come
into RHEL[1].

[CentOS] Difference between "CentOS Linux 8" and "RHEL8"

[Sergio Belkin]

Hi,
I've read about all recent changes about workflow: Fedora>CentOS Stream.
I understood that in the end CentOS Linux (8) keeps on being "built from
publicly available open source source code provided by Red Hat, Inc for Red
Hat Enterprise Linux"[1]

Is that correct? I mean the only that changed are CentOS upstream (Fedora
and Centos Stream) didn't it?

Thanks in advance

[CentOS] Wonky Firefox 68.0.1esr upgrade

[Kay Schenk]

I just applied a bunch of updates to my CentOS 7 system yesterday, one 
of which was a Firefox update to 68.0.1esr.


Now when I bring up sites I would log in to -- my bank, credit cards, 
etc., the Password box is wonky and shakes and doesn't display 
successive dots  for characters I type, nor does it accept what I type. 
My work around currently is to type the password first, then my userid 
but ???! Using either a  to get to the Password box or just a 
click in the Password box causes the same results.


Previous Firefox version which worked fine 
--firefox-60.8.0-1.el7.centos.x86_64


HELP!

Re: [CentOS] HW update. Fedora 30 to Centos?

[Arnaud Gelly]

Hello,


I recently switch from Fedora to CentOS for my work laptop.

99% of the time it's the same. Few programs can be missing by default or
old version like for my professional activity : wireshark, keepassXC,
linphone, sipcalc, etc..

But with a bit of compilation inside a docker (to avoid installing dev libs
on the OS) or AppImage/FlatPak/Snap you can run everything.

Some default parameters on gnome are different too, just a question of
configuration.


Happy with my CentOS on my laptop so far (hp envy). Much more stable. Never
had a crash after hibernate/back to life or external screen not discovered
for no (good) reason.

[CentOS] HW update. Fedora 30 to Centos?

[Dave Pawson]

Due hardware update.
  Many years on Fedora, would like to swap out
to AMD motherboard( x570) and graphics (RX480)

I'm led to believe that Fedora Linux is too 'new' for Centos.

Question for those with experience of both, what will I miss
on Centos wrt Fedora?

Not all that bothered about being 'up to the minute', and after
20+ Fedora installs it does get to be a drag...

Has anyone here any 'real' drawbacks please?

I'm not a power user, not a games player, just fancy
a change to AMD hardware

Conky was in EPEL7 for CentOS7, so you'll have to request that they
build it for EPEL8.

[CentOS] fresh C7.7 install

[Jerry Geis]

HI all,

I just did a fresh C7 install using kickstart.

fdisk -l /dev/sda shows:
# Start  EndSize  TypeName
 1 2048  2050047   1000M  EFI System  EFI System Partition
 2  2050048104450047   48.8G  Microsoft basic
 31044500481126420473.9G  Linux swap
 4112642048234440703   58.1G  Microsoft basic

What extra do I need to specify in my kickstart so that the "type" above is
not Microsoft basic?

For example, currently a line in my kickstart would be:
part /home --ondisk=/dev/sda --fstype ext4 --size=58G --asprimary


What is missing so the type is set correctly to linux root or linux home?

Thanks,

Jerry

[CentOS-virt] [feedback needed] VirtIO Windows Drivers - new installer

[Sandro Bonazzola]

Hi,
as part of the work on oVirt 4.4, the team rewrote the VirtiIO Windows
Drivers installer using the open source framework WiX.
Thanks to the virtio-win maintainer, the new installer is not shipped
anymore within oVirt Guest Tools ISO: it's shipped now directly into VirtIO
Windows ISO[1]

Please give it a run on your testing environment / testing VMs and let us
know about your experience at de...@ovirt.org.
Thanks,

[CentOS] Conky on CentOS 8

[Bill Maidment]

Hi
I've been using conky in conjunction with gcalcli on Scientific Linux 7 
to display google calendar data on screen.
In CentOS 8, I have set up the gcalcli part, but I can't find a conky 
rpm. Is anyone working on creating this for CentOS 8? There appears to 
be an rpm for fedora 28 onwards, but there are dependency issues.

Can anyone help?

Cheers
Bill
