have you by chance, even accidentally turned on the volume normalization in vlc?  it doesn't work, and makes things get louder and softer in annoying ways. -- The Power Of the People Is Stronger Than The People In Charge. 13. Sep 2017 08:32 by henne...@web.cs.ndsu.nodak.edu: > On Wed, 13

Re: [CentOS] Network Interrogation

if you are using vlans i'd suspect the ethernet card in the machines that are misbehaving.  for wireshark you probably need to tee the network, or use a spare machine to run the ethernet through (bridged)  and run wireshark on the inserted machine (there are of course taps).  might also monitor

Re: [CentOS] Kernel 4.12 and nVidia Driver

generally, no it won't update the kernel.  you can get security fixes for it if your' system is looking for updates regularly (you should set it to check at least daily).  it will usually update a version ( i.e. 2.16 would upgrade to 2.X.) and if you let it.  you generally don't want auto

Re: [CentOS] Lenovo T460p post 7.4 CR possible problems

you might check bios setting, processor throttling may be turned off, or it may well be a kernel or a virus issue (i assume some viruses care about the desktop enviroment).  i suspect, slightly, a virus as they are usually resource hogs, which makes them easilly detectable to someone who knows

Re: [CentOS] Lenovo T460p post 7.4 CR possible problems

It means it's time to open up your' laptop and evict all the dust bunnies.  it's overheating on one desktop but not the other because one of your' desktops, as configured on your system is using the processor more.  this is how laptops die as most people just whine and complain as their' laptop

[CentOS] Cleaning computers was: Re: Kernel:[Hardware Error]: use of vacuum

That's why i periodically clean my mother boards with water, followed by distilled water and ideally everclear to reduce drying time (Not rubbing alcohol etc., it nearly always has excessive impurities that leave a solid residue, and methanol can be damaging as well as being fairly toxic). 

Re: [CentOS] Errors on an SSD drive

is that because the drive is compressing the information?  is there a way to turn this off?  i hate mandatory compression as losing one bit in a compressed file tends to be a big deal compared to the same in an uncompressed file. -- Securely sent with Tutanota. Claim your encrypted mailbox

Re: [CentOS] Errors on an SSD drive

what file system are you using?  ssd drives have different characteristics that need to be accomadated (including a relatively slow write process which is obvious as soon as the buffer is full), and never, never put a swap partition on it, the high activity will wear it out rather quickly. 

Re: [CentOS] where is samba?

Obnoxius, seems to be the order of the day for companies that started with "FOSS" but don't want to comply with the licensing they were once so happy about because it gave them a product at a very low cost.  now everyone is getting greedy.  Then again money for nothing is the american dream
