How could I build complete 5.7 centos VM with two different Centos DVDs. I am sure somebody out there must have built one such OS.

Re: [CentOS] Linux on touch screen device

Initially the two applications that are of most interest to me would be a good web browser (maybe chromium) and thunderbird. I would also like to have a decent on screen keyboard which could be used to ssh to servers in an emergency. I've seen instructions for booting linux on various devices, but many people doing this are using keyboards and not touchscreens. Do applications like thunderbird have to be modified in order to work well with a touch screen or is just getting a working driver for the touchpad sufficient? If anyone has any experience with this I would appreciate knowing what hardware your running on and what linux distro/desktop environment you use. I've been interested in devices like the ASUS EP121 which is a dual core I5, so it wouldn't be necessary to have an ARM distribution. Also the newest Asus transformer prime (arm) which I think is about 2 months away sounds interesting. Lots of people do this and lots of (most?) commercial tablet/smartphone systems are based on Linux or a close cousin (Android and iOS come to mind...). As far as non-commercial DIY tablet distros, there are distros and special interest groups within larger distros that focus on this type of deployment. But none of them are CentOS, so I'm not sure why you pinged this mailinglist -- though I think you'd probably find that CentOS installs just fine in most cases, just remember to build whatever graphcs driver you need or your experience might not be good. Go ask over at Fedora, Ubuntu and maybe Mint. Also check out MeeGo and whatnot. As a side note, there is nothing magical about a touchscreen. Touchscreens are just pointing devices like mice and touchpads as far as Linux is concerned, but in this case it is a touchpad that you can see through to a screen on the other side (there is a special case of location logic, of course, so the pointer doesn't continue from last location, but this is a normal case handled by X). So nothing special happens in an application to make it work with a touchscreen because a touchscreen is just creating mouse events the same way your normal mouse would do. The only problem with touchscreens is that small icons are smaller than your finger (well, mine anyway) and so you have to make the desktop a little cartoony to make things work right. Gnome Shell in Fedora is actually not too bad to use with a touchscreen, though it sucks horribly with a mouse IMO, and KDE with large widgets is pretty easy as well. -IY ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Fioretti: sorry for the vague subject, but I couldn't find a better one. I have the website http://digifreedom.net running on a Centos 4 VPS with Apache and Drupal 6.10 . This is a multisite Drupal setup: only one installation, with subdirectories in sites/, and a separate mysql database for each website. For several reasons, I had setup DNS, drupal and everything to work without the www prefix on domain names. In other words, http://digifreedom.net is OK, www.digifreedom.net was never used. Everything worked perfectly for months, if not years. Five minutes ago, somebody wrote to me that a digifreedom.net URL I suggested him to read doesn't work. I checked, and what happens now is that, if I type http://digifreedom.net/node/82 the browser is immediately redirected to www.digifreedom.net/node/82, which (of course) returns an error message: Firefox can't find the server at www.digifreedom.net That error message is OK, because I had NOT set up DNS and apache to answer to that address. What I don't get is why http://digifreedom.net now becomes www.digifreedom.net. I haven't changed anything myself in DNS, drupal or apache config for many weeks, so why all of a sudden something started to behave differently? The weirdest thing is that this forced redirection from example.com to www.example.com happens with some, but not all of the other domains configured in the same way and running on the same server off the same Apache/Drupal installation! How can I find, at least, which piece of the puzzle is responsible for this problem? I am aware that probably this isn't even a centos issue, I just need a pointer in the right direction.

[CentOS] CentOS promotion
I've been to FOSDEM this weekend and noticed the small number of CentOS people at the booth. The Ubuntu people work with Local Community Teams to support and promote the distro. I think it would be beneficial for CentOS to setup a similar structure. At the moment it's mostly sysadmins who introduce/sneak CentOS into businesses. Local Community Teams can setup a booth at computer fairs and other events. This way the general public (small businesses, non-profit organisations, schools, ) are exposed to CentOS. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Re: [CentOS] Internet threat management package
take a look at OSSEC http://www.ossec.net/ J schreef: ... Looking for a recommendation for a commercial threat management package. ( Think antivirus / antispy / anti-rootkit -- all rolled into one engine ), similar to this product: http://usa.kaspersky.com/products_services/work-space-security.php, which currently only supports one kernel for FC6, and RHEL4, officially. Here's the background. Need to make a decision and investment for a hybrid linux/windows network, with a Samba file server running Centos5. Would like to invest a single product, rather than multiple products, especially since that implies that I'm not giving money to companies that only provide software for Windows. (or, supporting companies that provide software solutions for Linux, depending on how you look at it.) Not even sure if I have the right idea. I would assume that Linux clients are not completely invulnerable to virii, spyware, and rootkits, and that it would make sense, in a small corporate environment to guard against them, the same as Windows machines... but the lack of options seems to suggest otherwise?
