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.

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.

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.
Cheers,
Bob

I need a simple program which counts the elapsed time starting from
a given point. Could you give some suggestions?

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.
Rob

Hello
Been using smart for quite awhile now. Works great except for one thing. When
there is a kernel update smart replaces it. Don't want that. I want the
multiple kernels. I've brought up this and another issue on the labix list in
the past and never get any answers.
I set a flag for "lock" on the kernel and I also set a flag
for "multi-version" on the kernel. Seems that smart is ignoring that and only
the new kernel is found in /boot. Am I not doing this correctly?
I have four different kernels in /usr/src if that means anything, including
the previous and newly updated one.

The PMP patches this thread was about just got submitted to lkml-ide.
Great news from my perspective.
I hope they get into 10.3

Is Networkmanager (this thing instead of ifup) suse specific?
knetworkmanager is just a frontend, right?
The problem is that (at least using knetworkmanager) you can't choose
between infratructure only and adhoc connections.
The point is the hotspot I'm using (it's inside a library with many
students) is hiding its SSID. And windows make it to easy to start an
adhoc network. So there are a lot of computers saying that they would
be the hotspot but they are just a adhoc network. Networkmanager
always tries to connect to the adhocs which fails of course. What to
do to enforce connecting to the infrastructure??
Will there be a interface for gnome and/or XFCE?

Some years ago I used my home gardening program, Key Home Gardener, which was
a 16 bit Windows program, to lay out my lot, my septic system, and my
landscaping. It produces files in a .drw format, which is a Microsoft vector
format.
Is there any Linux based program that will allow me to view my .drw files?
