Re: MAC file sharing

2016-04-02 Thread Kevin K
Are you trying to share FROM Linux to Mac, or from Mac to Linux? A few weeks back, I wanted to share from my Mac to Linux, and had all sorts of difficulty. This is from El Capitan to the latest SL7 version. I could browse the Mac from the browser on the desktop, but I could not mount it from

Re: kernel.i686 2.6.32-279.1.1.el6 breaks Parallels?

2012-08-01 Thread Kevin K
VMWare Player doesn't work either. Stuff I read indicate it is some virtualization library that broke it. Possibly the same one for parallels. I just wanted to do a quick install into a virtual machine to test DVD image updates so I didn't have to burn a DVD to test mods to support the

Re: Upgrading kernel only from SL5.6 to SL6.2

2012-04-15 Thread Kevin K
Depending on what special features you might use on your system (virtualization, third party drivers), it might be possible to build a kernel from kernel.org. I've tried this in the past but since the latest kernel still didn't properly support the broken hardware I didn't pursue it further.
