Welcome to the brave new World where Google is the new Microsoft. Do you think if they cared about user feedback they would have left the "New GMail" redesign in place after the tons of negative feedback?. http://news.techeye.net/software/google-to-angry-gmail-users-we-know-better http://www.brightsideofnews.com/news/2012/4/24/googles-cloud-throws-a-thunderbolt-to-gmail-users.aspx They dont care. They "know better". They re doing software and services for the uneducated masses, they dont care what you and I -or any other 'power user'- thinks. Google's idea is that ideally we should run Android or Chrome OS, not CentOS... But the real question is: why should we freak out if a piece of Google software becomes no longer available? The World wont end, specially when there are capable open alternatives like Mozilla s Firefox. Think "Picasa for Linux" (wine) In fact, I think it's positive if we give Google LESS influence than what they already have, not more.

We know this happens, and we may try to work on it in the future, but for now KVM and Xen on the same base machine is not supported. The kernel would do KVM though, just not all the packages will install if you are installing xen as well. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] Bluetooth 4.0 with chip BCM20702A0 on CentOS6.4
Hi Ljubomir, Thanks for your suggestions, I tried kernel-ml & kernel-lt. Seems lots of error for kernel when I was starting the OS. kernel-lt is more stable. Both works fine for my bluetooth dongle. I will use the kernel-lt before CentOS release new kernel version. As my CentOS is for desktop use purpose, not so concern about the stability. Thank you so much!

You can try with newer kernels from ElRepo (http://elrepo.org/tiki/tiki-index.php) that have compatible API's with EL6. look for elrepo-kernel section on main page. Currently there are kernels 3.0.83-1 and 3.9.7-1.
