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

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.

http://www.mandrake.tips.4.free.fr/opensuse10.3.review.html should be
MUST READING for management at Novell and at openSuSE.org. It is
eminently fair and for the most part, accurate. I think any
inaccuracies could be attributable to unfamiliarity rather than bias.
If this reviewer hadn't been what I would call a 'Power-user', and had
instead been someone converting from Windows, not only would they
probably not have had a successful install, but would have an article
that Microsoft would probably have printed in full page ads throughout
the world. As it is, it should wake up Senior Management in SuSE.

Anybody tried it?, is it actually being used on the Opensuse project?.
Looks interesting.... Maybe it can replace workflow apps on
Domino/Notes...

SWAMP - The Workflow Platform
SWAMP is a workflow processing platform. Workflows are processes with
many people involved in many working steps. In a real world scenario
these workflows are highly dynamic, but still many systems try to
hardcode the business logic. That leads to raising efforts to adapt
the system.
Here is where SWAMP steps in: The workflow is designed in a XML based
meta language in one file which is read by SWAMP. Workflows can be
built from different workflow 'patterns' like simple actions,
decisions, selections, loops, but also custom code and external events
if required.
SWAMP builds a HTML GUI from the workflow definition file that guides
different users through the whole process, sends notifications if
required, assembles overview pages over all running processes and much
more. A SOAP interface can be used to integrate external systems into
the workflow.
These are SWAMPs main Features:
* Support of many different workflow patterns
* Flexibility in workflow design: A workflow can be specified in a
single XML file
* Workflow evolution: Workflows can be developed while in
operation (versioning)
* Ease of use: clear and straightforward XML based workflow
definition language, no coding skills needed
* Workflows can attach data and files
* Automatic web-GUI generation for handling individual tasks and
administrating workflows
* Running on Linux + Windows with OS-independant tools: Java, Tomcat, MySQL
* MySQL + LDAP authentication possible
* User and Role management, workflows/tasks can be restricted
* Mail notification system included
* Unlimited amount of different workflow-types on one server
* Scheduler to control time-critical workflow paths
* SOAP interface allows interaction with external systems
* Openness: Custom code allows unlimited functionality, event- and
data gateways
* Customizeable overview lists with filters

I see in the build service there is MozillaFirefox-2.9.92-8.1.x86_64.rpm
Anyone know what that is in laymens terms.
And if not Firefox 3 Beta 2, is anyone experimenting with it under
10.3 Suse yet?

Hello, everyone. I am writing using my wife's account on the SuSE list.
I recently upgraded my desktop from 10.0 to 10.3 (clean install). Now
when I view images (for example, a powerpoint slide, or a .jpg) what
previously had displayed as a perfect rectangular landscape image
instead shows as almost a square (and in some cases actually is a
square).
The page size setting in Powerpoint is correctly set at the default and
I confirmed that it is the same as on another computer (SuSE 10.0) that
displays properly, so that's not the problem. I have looked everywhere
in Powerpoint and in Gwenview for a setting (e.g., aspect ratio) that
might be off but have not found anything that changes the aspect ratio
or any other setting so that what is now appearing as a square or
nearly a square will instead display as a proper rectangle.
I also looked at various images on my 10.0 laptop which displays
properly and copied those images to the 10.3 desktop. When viewed on
the desktop the image (e.g., a screen shot) is squished. :o(
Any ideas on how to get this 10.3 pooter to display images correctly?
Many thanks for your wise suggestions.

Hello,
My name is Jan Fredrik Stoveland, and I am a masters student at the
University of Oslo writing a thesis on firm-sponsored open source
communities. openSUSE is the main case for the study. I have been granted
permission to send you this email by the openSUSE management, and I hope
you do not mind receiving it. I would like to ask all active members of
this mailinglist to participate in a brief, anonymous electronic survey
targeted at active contributors in the openSUSE community. So if you
regularly post messages on this list to help other users, I would
appreciate if you participate in the survey. Other users may participate
too. The research is funded by the University, and is independent of any
commercial interests. The link to the survey is here:
https://nettskjema.uio.no/answer.html?fid=38823&lang=en
The questions in the survey concern your current engagement in the
openSUSE community, your reasons for participating in the community and
your affiliation with Novell. I expect the survey will take you maximum 10
minutes to complete, unless you find any questions difficult to answer.
What do you get in return for doing this? The results from the survey will
be published on opensuse.org, and the thesis with other interesting
findings about your community will be published around May next year.
Hopefully this will be of interest to you. But first of all I hope you
will contribute for the sake of research itself.
Thank you very much for your help!

I should be most grateful for advice on how to investigate this problem
further. I have installed opensuse 10.3 on a P5A-B motherboard (Aladdin
V chipset) with 512MB of SDRAM, Cyrix MII-300 processor. This runs
slowly, with somewhat garbled graphics (ATI Radeon 7000) if I use X
windows. Without X windows, in run level 3, the load average after
booting (and after it has done various database things and settled) is
about 0.50. Even if I start it with so-called safe mode and remove all
loadable modules apart from those needed to drive the IDE interface the
load average never falls below about 0.20. In the first case the CPU
usage is about 60% idle and about 30% "si" (is this context switching?).
In the second, CPU is about 95% idle, but the load average varies from
0.16 to 0.22.
I assume some driver or high priority kernel process too
fundamental to show up by "ps" is in a loop occupying processor time.
Certainly the machine is even more sluggish than the hardware should
warrant (and I am using older hardware in a router running SuSE 10.1
with load averages about .01 to .02).
This is clearly too vague for a bug report, can anyone suggest
how I can pin this down more, for instance find out where the CPU is
spending most of its time?
Many thanks,

Hello,
I want to stop the password request when running rysnc on a second source
server.
I have a single target machine that has ssh keys from a source machine
(source A). I want to connect a second source machine (source B), using
rsync over ssh, to the target machine, however I see keys in the target
machine's /etc/ssh directory. If I create keys on 'source B', they'll have
the same name as the keys from source A on the target machine. Sorry if this
is a stupid question, but how do you accomplish having the ssh keys set
properly on the target machine from two different source machines?
Target's 'll /etc/ssh/';
