...i take care about toolkits.
i remember any backdoors on non verified toolkits.
I also remember tough un-secureness in serious toolkits...but whatever...thats 
not the point... i just want to know anything about review surgery.

How are this packages verified? is there a identity check?

I just want to know anything about information politics in this community :)... 
because its normally from red hat.

Yes, the kernel is open source, the primary location is here:

https://www.kernel.org/

I do not know about changes you are after, but there are proprietary chunks of 
software that run in kernel context: “firmware” - binaries you have to install 
to use some of hardware, e.g. Intel WiFi chips. Am I right  about drivers 
running in kernel context?

> So i can review the kernel updates ??

That is impressive task. If I were to do it, I would start by installing kernel 
source: two successive versions of kernel srpm's (foung in source rpm 
repository), and take a look which patches were added to new one, then inspect 
just these patches.

Re: [CentOS] CentOS-announce Digest, Vol 178, Issue 2

2019-12-07 Thread joernboe via CentOS
I have a question to this update:
Is the Kernel full open source?
So i can review the kernel updates ??
I want to know the exact changes- like a merged "change paper", to show the 
differences clearly.

Is this possible for Kernel updates?

Re: [CentOS] Updating firefox after a long time yum-excluded it and having installed it from .rpm

Try 'yum clean all' and then try again - any good?

If not, what about:

yum --disableexcludes=all install firefox

I'm guessing it's still excluded somewhere even though you think you've 
removed the exclude.

[CentOS] need info for X11 keybindings for CentOS7

2019-12-07 Thread Kay Schenk

Hello all--

It seems using ctrl-alt-F1 to exit from GUI back to MY OWN SESSION'S 
command line does not work for me. It does nothing.


Is this something that needs to be explicitly enabled? I start GUI using 
"startx".


Also, any info on what to use to get BACK to my X11 session. Discussions 
seem confusing on this point.


Thanks for any help.
