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

[opensuse] OpenOffice Impress sound
by Robert Lewis 02 Dec '07

02 Dec '07

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] Postfix does not seem to be logging
by John 19 Sep '07

19 Sep '07

Running SuSE 10.0 on my server, I'm trying to see why my mobile phone isn't allowed to relay through it. However, having tried to clean my log files to make finding the test section easier, I seem to have stopped the logging process. Two tries at postfix reload have not resolved the issue and after about an hour, mail, mail.err, mail.warn and mail.info all remain empty. Any suggestions, please?

[opensuse] Howto by pass ssh /etc/nologin
by Fajar Priyanto 05 Sep '07

05 Sep '07

Hi all, I'm trying to show a demo on how to modify PAM so that /etc/nologin is bypass by ssh. I have modified /etc/pam.d/sshd: #%PAM-1.0 auth include common-auth #auth required pam_nologin.so account include common-account password include common-password session include common-session When I try to ssh into the PC, I get logged in, but immediately got kicked out. In /var/log/messages I see this: sshd : User fajar is not allowed because /etc/nologin exists I have 'grep -r nologin /etc And have commented some of the entries in apparmor too, but still cannot login. I once succeeded in bypassing /etc/nologin, but I forget how.

[opensuse] Suse 10.2
by RTF 28 Aug '07

28 Aug '07

Hi, I have the OpenSuse 10.2 DVD from Linux Format magazine. I was going to install it in a dual-boot arrangement with XP. However, based on what I have read, during the installation, it asks you to choose your desktop (KDE, GNOME, XFCE, or whatever). While I don't have any distribution installed at present, previous installations allowed you to choose the desktop you wanted to use when you booted. Is there a way to install all available desktops/windows managers and then choose the one you want to use when you boot? Many thanks in advance.

Re: [opensuse] Adding SATA port multiplier support in Opensuse 10.2
by Mike Myers 26 Aug '07

26 Aug '07

By saying the vanilla kernel route, I meant downloading 2.6.18.8 from kernel.org and doing the patches against it, and then running that kernel. I just downloaded it and the patches worked fine against that base. The problem is that I am not sure what I lose by loading that kernel over the patched version that opensuse distributes. Especially since I like to use EVMS, and I know that seems to work out of the box with the patched opensuse kernel. Device mapper support is in 2.6.18.8, but again I am not sure what else went into the opensuse version. Is there a list of all patches that opensuse applied to the generic 2.6.18.8 kernel? Also, I contacted Tejun, and his existing patches are on a path to be incorporated into 2.6.23, but he is about to release PMP support for AHCI SATA controllers, which should be very popular too. I'll try and track down the forward port of the patchset, but I may try just running with the patched vanilla 2.6.18.8 first. I haven't used bugzilla before, but I'll work on getting a request added. PMP support is just SO useful, and windows drivers now pretty much support it across the board on a bunch of different controllers. Linux really needs it since software raid works so well.

The PMP patches never made it into vanilla (yet). If you search the lkml-ide mailing list I think you will find some people that have forward ported the PMP patchset, but you are definitely heading into unsupported territory. FYI: I think Tejun Heo is a Novell employee, so you may have better luck asking for the patchset to be incorporated into the 10.3 kernel. If you submit a bugzilla, etc. let me know and I'll add my vote.
