AlmaLinux 9 and XFCE sound problem
by Alessandro Baggi 24 Jun '25

24 Jun '25

Hey there, I installed Almalinux OS 9 on my notebook. I installed XFCE but I'm getting problem with audio because xfce4-pulseaudio plugin is missing and I can't change sound volume except on the specific program that play the music (In my case audacious and firefox). Currently I don't know if I must open a "please build xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin" on epel or if I should use something due to pipewire. I enabled also epel-testing to check if the package was in testing but seems missing. Someone has the same problem? Thank you in advance.

Migration issue
by Stephen Beckwith 11 Aug '22

Greetings, I'm trying to upgrade (update) a very old CentOS7 setup. I have, I think, successfully updated the CentOS7 to CentOS8. The /etc/redhat-release file says 8.5, kernel version however is still 3.10, so I might have messed up some steps. Also, this CentOS7 was a KDE custom setup. During this process, I was running out of the GUI/DE - which at a point reverted to CLI only (inside a VMWare Workstation 16.2.x Virtual Machine). I have tried to get KDE installed, but alas, no joy. So I decided to follow the upgrade path to Alma Linux. Following the instructions on GitHub, when I run the almalinux-deploy.sh script, I get: Verify almalinux-relesae-latest.rpm package ERROR (in red) details say: RSA sha1 ((MD5) PGP) md5 NO OK MISSING KEYS: (MD5) PGP#c21ad6ea) Any assistance you could provide would be greatly appreciated. I thank you for your time and expertise. Regards, Stephen Beckwith

AlmaLinux 9 and libvirt-guest bug
by Alessandro Baggi 04 Aug '22

04 Aug '22

Hey there, I noticed that libvirt-guests service is installed and enabled but the configuration file /etc/sysconfig/libvirt-guests is missing. I noticed this also on RHEL9. I populated the missing file with one of almalinux 8 and it works as expected. Running "dnf whatprovides /etc/sysconfig/libvirt-guests" does not report any match. This missing is a bug or a wanted behaviour? Thank you in advance.
