Printing on CD
by Andre Truter 03 Feb '06

03 Feb '06

Have anybody used one of the printers that can print on a CD under Linux to print on a CD? I am interested in buying a printer specifically for this purpose. I assume that it comes with special software for Windows and Mac to print on a CD, but do you need to send the printer special instructions to print on CD or does it work the same as printing on paper? (Just a matter of getting your layout correct) Thanks -- Andre Truter | Software Engineer | Registered Linux user #185282 ICQ #40935899 | AIM: trusoftzaf | http://www.trusoft.co.za ~ A dinosaur is a salamander designed to Mil Spec ~

We are using kdebase3-kdm 3.4.1-3. We are using LDAP for user authentication with PAM. Sometimes, not all the time, the user will encounter a hanging condition after the type in their username and password and hit enter. What could be causing this? #0 0xffffe410 in ??

The message will stay in the 'outbox' folder
by C. Brouerius van Nidek 03 Feb '06

03 Feb '06

From time to time Kmail on my Suse 9.3, KDE 3.5 frustrates me with the following information: Sending failed: Connection to host smtp.indo.net.id is broken. The message will stay in the 'outbox' folder until you either fix the problem (e.g. a broken address) or remove the message from the 'outbox' folder. The following transport protocol was used: Bonet direct What I really like to know what to do the next time this message pops up. And what is the cause: connection broken or a broken address which is quiet different. I expect a clearer answer from Linux. This not Windows.

New mailinglists regarding powersave development
by Holger Macht 03 Feb '06

03 Feb '06

Hi, To improve the cooperation with the community and other distributions, I like to announce two mailinglists dealing with the Powersave daemon and its various clients like kpowersave, wmpowersave and gkrellm-powersave: powersave-users(a)forge.novell.com: This list is intended for giving support and having discussions from a users point of view. For instance, if you have problems with getting a specific feature functional, like to install a custom event script or modify a powersave scheme, this is the right place to ask. Subscribe at http://forge.novell.com/mailman/listinfo/powersave-users powersave-devel(a)forge.novell.com: We like to invite everybody to take part in our powersave development. Discussions about future development, features and translations regarding the powersave daemon and kpowersave are done here. Patches are welcome ;-) If you like to get involved, subscribe at http://forge.novell.com/mailman/listinfo/powersave-devel Additionally, there is a registered channel #powersave on freenode (also accessible via irc.opensuse.org) if someone needs instant help or likes to discuss something. But don't expect there will always be someone online ;-) The mailinglists should remain the first place to discuss something important. Regards, Holger

spamd +Suse 10.0 +Evolution
by Art Fore 03 Feb '06

How does one get spamd to filter the spam from Evolution? Clicking the junk mail button is the manual way and I would expect the spamd would learn from the junk folder, but apparently it does not. (spamd is running) Art
