Re: [CentOS-docs] nspluginwrapper
Scott Robbins wrote: As the subject of nspluginwrapper came up recently, it might be worth mentioning that it's not properly documented. The README seems to be the official nspluginwrapper README, which, oddly enough, states that it's used with the command nspluginwrapper However, RedHat based systems seem to all use mozilla-config-plugin. (I'm not sure about other distributions--FreeBSD uses the more intuitive command nspluginwrapper and gives a message about its usage upon installation.) The only way I discovered this was by googling and coming across the unofficial Fedora FAQ. I don't know if it merits a wiki entry, but perhaps either a README.RedHat or even a small FAQ entry might be useful. It would just require a couple of lines, to the effect of Note that the command to run nspluginwrapper is mozilla-config-plugins. Running mozilla-config-plugins --help will show the available options. It may be documented elsewhere, but it's not easy to find. At least, I didn't find it in the wiki or FAQ. The Japanese page which does come up in a wiki search only mentions it as a package, with no indications about its use. (My Japanese reading is weak, but even someone who can't read it at all will see that it's only mentioned once in a list of packages. I don't know if it's of any help as I've not used nspluginwrapper before, but I stumbled across this guide by Tammy Fox recently: http://www.linuxheadquarters.com/howto/64-bit/flash64.shtml Thought I'd mention it in case it might be useful for anyone putting together any documentation on the subject. ___ CentOS-docs mailing list CentOS-docs@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs
[CentOS-docs] wiki contribution
Hi, I wanted to add a few notes in the wiki on the fastestmirror plugin on how you can add exclude info in the fastestmirror.conf file. This became important because amazingly ucalgary.ca shows up as a fastestmirror for servers I have in both Nevada and New York. However, the mirror is horribly slow for actual downloads and frequently times out. So, I just want to add info on how to add the exclude clause to this page: http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/FastestMirror Thanks, John ___ CentOS-docs mailing list CentOS-docs@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs
