Adding fonts?
by Tracer Bullet 22 Aug '16

22 Aug '16

Hi all, Reading some mails on the GIMP mail list, I ran across the procedure to install some more fonts for not only Gimp, but the system and StarOffice to use also. Well, I installed the fonts, went to the shell and issued the command xset fp+ <font directory> and then the rehash command and all fonts are there! Ok, that went well, but each time I restart the system, I have to do it all over again? Is there a way to make it permanent and read the new fonts like it does the ones the system installs or is that a no-no? end of line Tracer Shell commands: xset fp+ <new font directory> xset fp rehash -- ---KMail 1.2--- SuSE Linux v7.2--- Registered Linux User #225206 /tracerb(a)sprintmail.com/ *Magic Page Products* *Team Amiga* http://home.sprintmail.com/~tracerb

Hi: I just bought this printer, thinking it would work right out of the box. I'm running SUSE 9.3 with CUPS, and it does not seem to support this model. Anybody got this printer to work? Any pointers would help. Best regards. -- Alfredo Cole-Tuckler

07 May '07

Hello all, I'm repeating this question and I'd really appreciate any help. I cannot connect to a remote server via KDE Remote Desktop Connection anymore. When trying, I got an error: Connection failed, server does not accept new connections On a server there is: - no krfb processes - netstat -anp | grep 590 returns: tcp 0 0 :::5900 :::* LISTEN 2030/kdeinit: kded therefore someone is waiting for connection - this is SuSE 9.0 Is there a way to restart KDE's VNC on this server without restarting KDE completely? Thanks for any hint and best regards Janko

[opensuse] gdm / xorg issues: x server already running?
by Michael Dolan 11 Apr '07

11 Apr '07

Whenever I start my desktop (running OpenSuse 10.2 with XGL), it shows the nVidia logo startup screen, then goes to this funky blue/black gdm error message saying "There already appears to be an X server running on display :0." And then it asks if it should try restarting X on display :0 again. Whether I say Yes or No, the screen goes blank for a second and then the normal gdm login screen comes up... it's very odd b/c it works, but for some reason appears to be called too early or something.... I've already tried just reinstalling gdm and xorg server packages... Can anyone help me identify where I should fix this? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] OpenOffice "crashes" on exit from slideshow
by Simon Roberts 19 Mar '07

19 Mar '07

Hi all, I have SuSE 10.2 installed, and have just noticed that if I present a slideshow in OpenOffice (the version bundled with 10.2) the thing "crashes" when you exit a slideshow. It's curious, it doesn't seem to die per se, nor do any damage, but it insists that it crashed and must recover the file. Maybe it really did crash, but the file didn't really need recovery, since no changed had been made. It doesn't (so far at least) seem to damage anything, but it's a bit odd, and slightly worrying. Does anyone else see this, or am I just "special" :) Cheers, Simon "You can tell whether a man is clever by his answers.

[opensuse] Need explanation - question 1
by usr 10 Mar '07

10 Mar '07

Hello SuSE people Recently installed 10.2 on a new hard drive. Triple boot all on their own harddrives. I gave 10.2 a 3GB partition for / I also made separate partitions for /tmp, /var, and /home, each 10GB in size. I went to update 10.2 and was warned that the / partition is 97% full. How can that be? Does everthing on the DVD install into / ?? Now, do I have to reinstall 10.2 after making the / partition much larger ?? Some please explain what the problem is here. Please ??

[opensuse] Asus P4P800 ( ICH5R ) problem when installing openSUSE 10.2
by Rui Santos 17 Feb '07

17 Feb '07

Hi all, Hope someone can help me: I own a P4P800 Deluxe, with a ICH5R chipset, a DVD+-RW Drive ( PATA ) and a HD ( SATA ). When I select the install option, upon booting from the dvd, a while later appears a message that says that it cannot find the dvd. Also, the manual installation program claims that it cannot find any dvd/cd-rom. The HD is detected though... What can I do solve this. I'm running SuSE 10.1 like a charm...
