RE: [S.u.S.E. Linux] Wabi
by frolija＠texaco.com 08 Apr '98

08 Apr '98

The thing about wabi that bit me was the fact that there is a license file (undocumented) that gets copied over if you run the install script (you can only run the install script if you can use an rpm). Since i was using the .tgz file, there was no way to use the script. The license file gets put in /etc/flexlm/licenses > -----Original Message----- > From: zentara [SMTP:zentara@mindspring.com] > Sent: Tuesday, April 07, 1998 11:53 AM > To: suse-linux-e(a)suse.com > Subject: Re: [S.u.S.E.

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Trouble with Netscape mail function
by billmadsen＠worldnet.att.net 08 Apr '98

08 Apr '98

Now that I have a ppp connection with ATT Worldnet (thanks to the good advice I received from this group), I'd like to set up Netscape 4.04 (Navigator/Communicator) to handle my e-mail, but when I tell it that my incoming mail is handled by postoffice.worldnet.att.net, I get an error message telling me that Netscape never heard of postoffice etc. So I must be doing something radically wrong, and I would appreciate some more good advice. Thanks in advance. Bill Madsen in St. Louis -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Colors
by rkeeley＠dibbs.net 08 Apr '98

08 Apr '98

Good people, On page 235 of the manual, it says press the right button then in the "Everything" meun there should be "System" then "Information" and then "colors". I don't have this option. Under other linuxs I could actually see the colors. Under Suse I don't have the option. I loaded a plain ole vanilla SuSE required linux, but mine is not quite like the one in the manual. Point me in the right direction...... -- 73's Roy KC4IMC rkeeley(a)dibbs.net kc4imc(a)maf.wa4wbi.ampr.org Snail Mail = 10675 Salt Aire Rd, E., Theodore, AL 36582, USA APS #158954 - C&LS #162 -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Susewm
by rkeeley＠dibbs.net 08 Apr '98

08 Apr '98

Hi folks, On page 229 of the manual it shows menus that I don't have, yet I supposely brought up the SuSE Xwindows. specifically I want "Susewm Keys" and "View System Wide Configuration File". Maybe this is an error on your part, but I suspect it might be mine. Anyhow, please advise how I can bring up Xwindows like is shown on page 229. -- 73's Roy KC4IMC rkeeley(a)dibbs.net kc4imc(a)maf.wa4wbi.ampr.org Snail Mail = 10675 Salt Aire Rd, E., Theodore, AL 36582, USA APS #158954 - C&LS #162 -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Printing Problem from StarOffice
by adcarlso＠visinet.ca 08 Apr '98

08 Apr '98

Further on the subject of printing problems, has anyone experienced problems printing from StarOffice? I get segmentation errors, except when I am using one of the graphical applications (i.e. printing purely graphics). Basically StarWriter is unusable. I have also experienced this with certain pages from Netscape (particularly pages with frames). However, other apps work (Ghostscript, Adobe Reader), basic ASCII, etc. Thanks ---------------------------------- Arlen Carlson adcarlso(a)visinet.ca CChheecckk yyoouurr dduupplleexx sswwiittcchh..

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Dark Printing
by adcarlso＠visinet.ca 08 Apr '98

08 Apr '98

Has anyone who may have an HP DeskJet printer (I have a 600C) experienced dark printing when using apsfilter? Mine almost "spews" out ink, particularly when printing in black. At the very least it is much darker than using the printer from other operating systems (OS2, Wimpdoze) Could anyone suggest a possible solution?
