suse window theme/style
by Istvan Gabor 24 Nov '05

24 Nov '05

Hello all: I like(d) very much the default kde window and color style/ theme that was included with suse 9.0/9.1/9.2. In 10.0 the deafult style is different that I do not like as much. How could I install the style/theme of the above versions onto 10.0? (Currently I'm runnig 10.0 x86_64). Thanks, IG ______________________________________________________________________ KGFB 2006 - Garantáltan a legjobb ár! Nyerje meg az új Swiftet + garantált 10,000,- Ft értékű ajándék.

backing up email and folders across a reformat & install
by -=j=- 23 Nov '05

23 Nov '05

Hi, I looked through the archives and found that I need to save ~/.gconf and ~/.evolution to backup my email and folders [or so it appears] but I don't know how to get at these folders or email messages once I've done a fresh install [equivalent for reformatting the hard drive, etc.]. I have to take a suse 9.3 box and roll it back to suse 9.2 for dev reasons. Unfortunately there's a lot of email on it as it was upgraded, semi unsuccessfully, so suse 9.3. I want to back up the email on this suse 9.3 box now, do a fresh install complete with reformatted drive and then either load or recreate the folders and restore the old email. If I could just restore the folders that would be best sas they won't exist on a new install anyway but at the worst just getting the old messages in there will suffice. How do you do it? I've seen no references to re-opening old messages or foders, just people talking about saving the afore-mentioned directories. Sorry if this has been clearly answered, but how do you get at the old messages and folders of you saved off ~/.gconf and ~/.evolution directories? tia... Jack

DCOPserver problem
by K. Elo 23 Nov '05

23 Nov '05

Hi, what causes the DCOPserver to crash? In the last couple of days I have several times been forced to restart my kde session, because the DCOPsever has crashed. After this I have neither been able to start any applications by clicking the panel icons nor to browse any www-sites with konqueror and so on. My system is SL 9.3 Pro with all YOU-updates and with kde 3.4.3. I haven't had this problem before, so I am curious to find out, if such a problem is well-known and if there are solutions for it. This problem is a bit nervy. Thanks in advance, Kimmo

Printer installation
by Jean-Pierre Abgottspon 22 Nov '05

22 Nov '05

Hi, I am using YAST to connect an old EPSON LQ-500 printer to my PC. This printer has a needle printing head. It works with this ESC/P printer language. I intend to use it only to edit text. The connection works fine and I manage to get the test page issued on paper with no trouble. However when printing an e-mail message for instance, the printed characters are not in the 'roman', 'sans serif', 'slot' or 'draft' fonts my printer offers by pressing option buttons on this device. They come in an exotic 'shadow' style. It makes it rather hard to read. The only thing I know is that somewhere if I could drive this command ESC &, I might give my printer the right to print accordingly to the 'r', 'ss', 'sl', 'd' options it offers. Watch out ! I am a newbie. I guess I may not be able to activate this thing outside the YAST options. Tks in advance. JP. Using Linux pro 9.3. My Pc is a Compaq Deskpro. -- Libérez vos bits.

by Ralph Robinson 21 Nov '05

21 Nov '05

Hello Linuxens Glad to see so many people helping people and doing it with good hearts too. I would love to help to but my knowledge at this time with Linux is not so special. I can only help so far as what I have experience in the way of my failures and wins . Now I need help because of my failure in lack of knowlege in this new DVB-T TV antenna wave. Xaw TV , KDE TV, TV Times, Kaffeine, Xzine. Nothing works right with my SuSE 1.0. I am useing a PCI Technisat -T card. In Hardware adjustments Yast, My Technisat is Identifyed. but as I continue on to adjust tuner it tells me No tuner to be found. And as far as the tuner goes I start to wonder were is the antenna adjustment which is hooked up to the TV card. I am not sure if anyone understands my description of my Digital Video Band- Terresteral or so, but if anyone does please please help me to get this pressing problem out of the way so that I can do something else with the cool possibilitys that Linux has to offer. At the present I am trying to learn as much as I can with the SuSE help center. Thanxs ahead of time for the bold one that can tackle my problem. -- http://gmx-partner.de/RalphRobinson Regards Ralph Robinson Yahoo im rrobinsoon52 AOL Rorobinson1 ICQ 26003826 Cell: 0163-772-8258 http://www.hanau-cyber-city.de postmaster(a)robinson-online.info ---------------------------------------- Love is like an Full Eclipse, You might see it one or two times in a life time

Update on clock problem
by Christian Reppel 21 Nov '05

21 Nov '05

To those who remember: the hardware clock that runs late thanks to summer/winter time change has been fixed thanks to the removing of /etc/adjtime... On a new startup it works fine again. Thanks! _________________________________________________________________ Be the first to hear what's new at MSN - sign up to our free newsletters! http://www.msn.co.uk/newsletters

QT3 problems
by sargon 20 Nov '05

20 Nov '05

I installed the updated RPMs for QT3 last weekend, and promptly lost almost all of my styles. I don't remember what version those RPMs were. :( Has anyone used 3.3.5-17? Are these the ones which break styles? Thanks in advance.
