Remote Connection
by jason pratt 31 Oct '03

Is there a way to remove the confirmation when someone connects via remote desktop? If I connect from work I have to have someone at home click on "control mouse & keyboard" and accept connection. Is there a way to make it automatically connect. Sorry for all the questions :) Thanks... -Jason

Pysol dies
by Peter B Van Campen 30 Oct '03

30 Oct '03

Hi Guys, Well you Pysol fanatics have got me interested! I found Pysol via YAST2 on SUSE 8.2 and installed it w/o probs. It starts OK and looks cool. But whenever the mouse cursor touches the tool bar it 'winks' out of existance. Also dies if I strike the 'D' key for a new deal. I found the latest vers (-194) at the Pysol homepage but it beheaves the same way. The same failure observed on another 8.2 machine. Can anyone assist?

where can I find this package
by Jason Pratt 30 Oct '03

30 Oct '03

I'm in need of gnome-themes-extras package to install ulb-gnome. The problem is is that it doesn't appear to be on the CD's. gnome-themes is but not "-extras" any ideas, and is something like this available via apt-get. If so how would I ask for it.. "apt-get install gnome-themes-extras"? Thanks..

OT: Question for German-speaking list members
by Trey Sizemore 30 Oct '03

30 Oct '03

I am trying to install a newsletter program called PHPLetterIt2 that is from a German company. It looks to be a great program, but the brief installation instructions are in German (although the program supports English). The install does not seem as intuitive as some I've done in the past on my server (PHPNuke, phpESP, etc.). I was wondering if someone could assist with the install instructions. The site is http://otterware.net/ and the program is LetterIt2. Thanks again, or Dank! Trey

USB CD burner hotplug
by Michael George 30 Oct '03

30 Oct '03

I just got an NEC 1300A CD-RW/DV±RW drive in a USB enclosure. When I plug the device into a USB port and power it up, the system says: Oct 30 14:00:26 brutus kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:04.3-2.1, assigned address 3 Oct 30 14:00:26 brutus kernel: usb.c: USB device 3 (vend/prod 0x402/0x5621) is not claimed by any active driver. Oct 30 14:00:26 brutus kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 2, frame# 278 Oct 30 14:00:26 brutus kernel: hub.c: usb_hub_port_status (2) failed (err = -84) So it doesn't know what driver to load. If I manually do modprobe usb-storage the drive is recognized and mounted right away. But shouldn't the system (8.2Pro kernel 2.4.20) automatically know that it's a storage device? I figure there needs to be an entry in usb.distmap in /etc/hotplug, but I can't find any info about how to construct an entry for a device that's not already present in the file. Where can I find that info? Thanks! -- -M

Konq and Mozilla/Firebird
by jason pratt 30 Oct '03

30 Oct '03

I'm fairly new to KDE, only used it briefly back in RH 5.1 or sometime around there. Well I'm using Konq as my browser and it's extremely slow rendering pages off the web compaired to Mozilla/Firebird. Is there a way to speed things up in Konq? It takes Konq two or three times as long to render a page as Mozilla/Firebird. Any suggestions? I'm not bashing or anything just tring to make Konq keep up with the others. I want to keep everything I use as KDE native because I don't like using GNOME based software in KDE since they generally don't match, looks wise. Thanks.. Jason
