2009/11/1 Vnpenguin vnpeng...@vnoss.org: Correction: CentOS 5.4 was released on 21-Oct-2009. So it's not so old at all :-) Sorry, but it is. It's a free version of RHEL5, which was initially released in 2007. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centos It you want something modern, use e.g. Fedora.

Re: [NTG-context] ConTeXt Minimal: error pdftex on CentOS x86_64
Vnpenguin, what kernel is running on your OS? If we set up a virtual machine for compiling binaries - does anyone have a suggesting what OS to take, so that it will remain compatible with as many x86_64 processors as possible? (Apparently glibc and kerner are the deciding factors; but it needs to have support for 64-bit machines that are not as old as it seems after all.) Reinhard - what linux are you using for TL?
