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

HP Laser 1020

by Alfredo Cole

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

[opensuse] OpenOffice Impress sound

by Robert Lewis

Impress does not play sound on Linux. However, it does with Openoffice on XP. I have had an exchange with the developer and now understand what is causing the delay on Linux. He offers this as a work around while they are sorting out the real solution. http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=50506&view=next However, it would be nice to substitute on SUSE 10.2 fmj which is available for SUSE 10.2 either from Packman or SUSE, I don't remember. However, I have not got that to work. In addition I have not been able to translate his instructions for jmf to a working solution as yet. If anyone knows how to get this working on SUSE and would willing to write up something clear for the rest of that would really be neat.

[opensuse] smartctl and too high temperature?

by Rauch Christian

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, I have 2 WD S-ATA drives in my PC, one WDC WD2500JD-00H Rev: 08.0 and one WDC WD2500KS-00M Rev: 02.0. The later of them shows quite a weird behaviour sometimes. this drive seems to have 2 sensors for temperature: # the first drive hellmsklamm:~ # smartctl -A -d ata /dev/sda | grep -i temperature 194 Temperature_Celsius 0x0022 101 095 000 Old_age Always - 49 # the second drive hellmsklamm:~ # smartctl -A -d ata /dev/sdb | grep -i temperature 190 Temperature_Celsius 0x0022 044 044 045 Old_age Always FAILING_NOW 56 194 Temperature_Celsius 0x0022 094 094 000 Old_age Always - 56 Today a popup came up in KDE, telling me, that sdb had a temperature of 190°C. Anyone experiencing the same/similar behaviour and/or knowing, how to solve this? (No, the drive can't have this temperature, I would've burned my finger badly when touching *g*) Regards, Chris - -- http://rauchs-home.de - home of yet another suse repository ;) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFF/FZbayhvFxrDZlkRAowgAJoDcAqX7bLFlc0ea9cEgDW9Rr0/VwCeI3i2 SJC+SMsjzxZ3vGOXP0WR7VI= =yfaU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Best way to copy mail (kmail)

by Jim Flanagan

Hi all, This is a basic question, but what is the best way to copy my email files from one install (9.3) to my new install (10.2). Same machine. Old install is mounted as same user name mounted at "data1". I have not used kmail on the new install yet, but did open kmail once, have not set up users. I see may old mail in /data1/home/user/.kde/share/apps/kmail/mail. I see the same folder in the new install, with only a few sub-folders. Should I just copy the whole /mail folder over the new one and be done with it? Or would "cat" be better? Again, there is no mail in the new folder so I can overwrite it if need be.

[opensuse] Need help creating a syslog -ng config file to perform a Syslog Daemon's Work.

by Registration Account

I want to build a Syslog Server. I have a Linux Log file viewer so most of the work is done. http://www.kiwisyslog.com/log-viewer-v2-beta-info.htm I needs syslog-ng to listen to UDP/514 and write a continuous file on the information it hears. Fortunately I do not need any log rotation as the file is only text base and although it has the potential to reach large sizes I can deal with a lot of space. Syslog-ng appears to have many config files and I am not sure which to modify. Can anyone assist me with this short line of syntax, given the above Linux Log file's ability to display the file as it changes and the various parameters it uses, some of which I understand but not all. The ability to NOT have to maintain a M$ PC just to be a Syslog +daemon would be a breakthrough for so many sysop's who require real time syslog data. Data from my multiple IDS's is sent to my current M$ Windows Syslog+Daemon, however I do have a large Linux IDS Management Module that does number crunching, provides warnings and reports but cannot display the data in realtime. Syslog data is sent to UDP/514 to Facility's numbering Local 0-7. The text stream looks something like [2007-04-21 17:31:55] <6>EFW: ALG: prio=1 algmod=http algsesid=70500 action=close reason=backlisted_url url="www.download.windowsupdate.com/msdownload/update/v3-19990518/ca" peer=client connipproto=TCP connrecvif=LAN connsrcip=192.168.100.40 connsrcport=3767 conndestif=core conndestip=202.158.212.136 conndestport=80 origsent=364 termsent=84 Where the number enclosed by < > is equal to 0 Emergency: system is unusable 1 Alert: action must be taken immediately 2 Critical: critical conditions 3 Error: error conditions 4 Warning: warning conditions 5 Notice: normal but significant condition 6 Informational: informational messages 7 Debug: debug-level message If anyone is really board and wants to learn about the convention there is a short war and piece version at http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3164.html Dont worry about understand the text, thats my job. I just offer it as an example for delineation purposes. I know this is a big ask, but no one but no one currently produces as Linux Syslog Daemon + Log Viewer. In my reading of my 2000 page into to C++, I have only got to page 95 and I know this is a 3 line entry into a config. Please tell me if I ask too much. Many thanks if anyone can assist. Scott :'(
