[CentOS] C7 minimal (1511) firewalld is not installed: logical?
I just installed a host with CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1511.iso It seems that firewalld is not included in the minimal set. I wonder why? If I recall correctly CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1503-01.iso did include it. And, this could be a very stupid question, am I running without a firewall or just without a way to control my firewall?

Re: [CentOS] And now for something completely different. Win7 on KVM
Op 23-10-14 om 18:00 schreef James B. Byrne: At the moment none I guess. The message is that the client cannot find a driver. I have virtio-win-0.1-74.iso and virtio-win-0.1-81.iso on the hypervisor host. How do I get the driver from there into the guest? Does the client have access to the hypervisor's file-systems? Do I mount the ISO as a cd-rom in the guest? How is that done? In virt-manager? Is there a document somewhere that I can get an idea on how this is supposed to work? James, I don't know if help is still needed. You can mount the iso via virt-manager if you have (or create) a virt-storage-pool. If you can reboot the client you could edit /etc/libvirt/qemu/virtclientname.xml and add to (if your client already has more than 2 drives attached, change target dev hdc to hdd or ...) You can switch your storages to virtio too, I did it in the past but fail to find my notes. I think that the steps on this page are correct: http://setdosa.blogspot.be/2013/09/moving-your-windows-guest-from-ide-to.html And, of course, work on a snapshot or at least have a copy of your client. If you need help to change the driver in Windows I suggest we take this off-list since some are very allergic to Microsoft.

We have a Win7pro KVM guest that has been giving us networking issues since it was created. The last problem was that it was picking up its network address from the virtio DHCP service, with predicable results. This turned out to be an issue with how the virtual nic was configured (it was using NAT instead of the br0 bridge. We have adjusted the settings on the guest so the the nic is configured as a shared device / br0 / Device Model=virtio. Now after it boots the thing says that it does not have a driver for Ethernet adaptor at all. Is there a different setting for the model that I should be using? I have to point out that this thing was originally installed from cd-rom and then updated from the internet. So at some point it must have had a working network connection. Any ideas as to how to get it to find the network interface again? James, on the client, which driver do you use? Mine is 'Red Hat VirtIO Ethernet Adapter' 61.65.104.7400 20/11/2013.

[CentOS] Is there a problem with C6 CR and glibc?
C6 with CR x86_64 Third time when trying to install a packet I get: yum install samba [...] --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Package: glibc-2.12-1.7.el6_0.5.i686 (updates) Requires: glibc-common = 2.12-1.7.el6_0.5 Installed: glibc-common-2.12-1.25.el6_1.3.x86_64 (@cr) glibc-common = 2.12-1.25.el6_1.3 Available: glibc-common-2.12-1.7.el6.x86_64 (base) glibc-common = 2.12-1.7.el6 Available: glibc-common-2.12-1.7.el6_0.3.x86_64 (updates) glibc-common = 2.12-1.7.el6_0.3 Available: glibc-common-2.12-1.7.el6_0.4.x86_64 (updates) glibc-common = 2.12-1.7.el6_0.4 Available: glibc-common-2.12-1.7.el6_0.5.x86_64 (updates) glibc-common = 2.12-1.7.el6_0.5 Had the same problem yesterday with a Canondriver-rpm and earlier with either Hugin or Scribus. Searched on Google and found many old pages (afaik nothing C6). I don't think there is a glibc-common i686 package (neither do I know if that would be a good idea). Should I downgrade glibc-common to 2.12-1.7? Or install a second glibc-common? Or just wait? BTW I tried to install Samba with only Base, Updates and CR repo enabled.

Re: [CentOS] centos 5.6 and intel MHD4500 graphics card
Hüvely Balázs schreef: I've a toshiba satellite notebook, and I tried to install centos 5.6. The installer starts, but when it turns to graphical mode, the backlight goes off. I see the windows, buttons, but it's very dark, maybe the backlight switching off.. Ok, I rm the xorg.conf file. After I start immediately the X server, the screen was visible but only in 800x600 resolution. I tried to change it, but there is no other modes available. So I get back to console and try s-c-d, then start again X. The backlight went off again, so I returned to the original problem. looks like http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=4363 to me I don't know if this is relevant but I do have (had?) the same problem with a HP with nvidia (+ proprietary driver); but only with the brightness set to manual. With brightness set to automatic (to environmental lighting) I don't experience the same problem. It happened after 5.4 but since I had a workaround I didn't investigate at the moment.
