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.

I performed a fresh install of opensuse 10.3 and proceeded to go to
http://software.opensuse.org/search for the codecs
I selected and executed Codec-Audio-Video.ymp. During the installation
process I received a dialogbox with the following major message and assoc
options.
No valid solution found with just resolvables of best architecture
and
speex cannot be installed due to missing dependencies.

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?

Hi,
I tried to figure out (via the SLES support) when SLES 11 will be
released. The answer was that SLES 11 will likely (not guaranteed) have
a common code base with opensuse 11.1 and thus should appear in spring
2009 or so. More detailed information couldn't be given due to legal issues.
Maybe I can get some general statements about this topic from some openSuSE
and SLES developers here, I don't know where else to discuss this.
So far, SLES was supposed to be released in a 2-year-cycle, from 8 to
10 it was even less (22 months). With the information from the support
I wonder if this 2-year period is still targeted at or not.
It looks like opensuse 11.0 will take very long according to the schedule.
To keep the 2-year-cycle for SLES, SLES11 would have to share the code
base with openSuSE 11.0 (and even then it would be short due to the
2-3 months delay between the SuSE and the SLES version in the past).
When sharing with openSuSE 11.1 and assuming the same long development
cycle for 11.1 as for 11.0, SLES 11 would indeed appear sometime in spring
2009. Thus, being closer to a 3-year-cycle than to a 2-year.
Maybe the decision about SLES 11 and the code base for it hasn't been
made yet, but I would like to know what's the general plan for the
future. Will Novell try to keep the 2-year release cycle for SLES?
If not, we must consider switching to sth. else :-( 2 years is already
hard for servers that we use for software development, webservices and
things like that. The repositories make it possible to stay with one SLES
for 2 years, but after that we need a fresh, up-to-date installation with
all the lastest tomcat stuff etc.
(and yes, Crispin, of course I'm also worrying about our "SLES for servers,
same SuSE codebase for clients" setup that we discussed once in the past ;-)
Although I'm able to work around this now with a combined SLES+SLED
installation :-))
cu,
Frank

Hi,
Im having problems activating NCQ on Asus P5B-MX , Seagate Barracuda
ST3250410AS (250GB) with Opensuse 10.3 installed.
Before installation Ive set in BIOS Enhanced IDE configuration for S-ATA
mode (from my understanding that enables advanced features like NCQ),
installed the system no problem. After first boot Ive noticed ahci driver
wasnt loaded, only ata_piix, so Ive edited /etc/sysconfig/kernel and added
ahci before ata_piix driver, rebuilt initrd, edited modprobe.conf and
replaced ata_piix occurrences with ahci.
Original line:
# ata_piix can't handle ICH6 in AHCI mode
install ata_piix /sbin/modprobe ahci 2>&1 |:; /sbin/modprobe
--ignore-install ata_piix
My line:
# ata_piix can't handle ICH6 in AHCI mode
install ahci /sbin/modprobe ahci 2>&1 |:; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install
ahci
After reboot I saw ahci loaded under libata but after ata_piix
libata | ata_piix, ahci
and actually used was ata_piix despite being loaded first. Ive then:
# dmesg|grep NCQ
And got a line back like:
ata3.00: ATA-7, 321672960 sectors: LBA48 NCQ (depth 0/32)
# echo 31 > /sys/block/sda/device/queue_depth
resulted in permission denied. (as I found on linux-ata FAQ) Further reading
on linux-ata FAQ says:
If the line containing the sector count and maximum UDMA speed does not
mention NCQ, your drive does not support it.
Im puzzled since I have UDMA showing on:
# dmesg|grep ata3
Which displays all disk info, and NCQ (depth 0/32) would mean NCQ is
present but disabled.
>From what I can see disk should support NCQ and I was informed by person who
sold it to me that it was NCQ ready. (I specifically wanted NCQ disk).
I dont know if Im making a mistake somewhere or disk just doesnt support
it. Im in for some help please!
P.S. Yes Ive rebooted ;)

Hi,
I got a photo-cd that SuSE 10.3 recognises as UDF Volume but
cannot read. The error message does not help me:
mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting
read-only mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock
on/dev/srO, missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog-try demesg/tail or
so
Using Windows XP I can extract the *.jpg photo's and transfer them to
SuSE to view.
But is it possible, using SuSE, to analyse the UDF variety and/or
rip the *.jpg files from the photo-CD?
