PHP Mcrypt on CentOS 6

Posted by: on Aug 19, 2011 | 17 Comments Tags: , ,

Yay, CentOS 6 still doesn’t by default include mcrypt in it’s distribution on repositories.

There is hope, EPEL to the rescue again:


rpm -ivh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-5.noarch.rpm
yum update

You should see EPEL listed as the repos, then:


yum install php-mcrypt

Done.

**Please note the above download is for CentOS 6 x86_64**

Windows 7 First Thoughts

Posted by: on Oct 29, 2009 | No Comments Tags: , , , ,

Popped along to PC World yesterday and bought a copy of Windows 7 Professional (didn’t seem to be any benefit to going for Ultimate).

Now I was a little apprehensive as I am installing under BootCamp on my Mac, I had XP installed so I backed up my files and the removed my BootCamp partition before starting from scratch.

Installation was rather quick, I was expecting hours, yet inside 30minutes I had my OS X disc in installing drivers.

As much as it pains me to say it, it’s nice. I mean really nice! Easy on the eye and simple to use first impressions are good. I’m still getting a few programs installed so hope they will all work (went for the x64 version). Just downloading the Windows XP Mode which claims to allow older programs to run inside a virtual PC.

I’ll keep you posted!
