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.
regards
Richard

installed it yesterday on my brand new thinkpad, and most of the basic
stuff seems to be working : tested the wired/wireless connection :ok.
can write DVD's, sound is ok, hibernation and sleep : ok , sdcard reader
: ok, and last but not least, video graphics, weel that's a special case
with this laptop, it includes 2 graphic controller : 1 discrete, the ati
hd3650 and am integrated controller , intel mobile GM45 express chipset.
i knew i wasn't going to get this switchable graphics thing in order...
by default, the installation chooses the intel chipset. which works ok,
but doesn't give you the power of the ATI. i changed the bios setting to
discrete graphics ( swichable off ). when booted into command line, i
could run sax and it installed the correct ATI drivers. but the next
reboot set me back to the intel chipset, and indeed the bios was back to
switchable graphics enabled ?

The proxy works for firefox but not for konq in 11.0 kde 4. I've tested the
proxy via yast and it works fine. Also, other browsers recognise it. Bug?
I'm using squid on a 10.3 server with 11.0 and KDE4
Thanks.

Hi all,
what is beginning to be quite annoying is working with different
Desktops. I have different working groups organised on a desktop each. I
often have OpenOffice Writer, Calc and Firefox open on various desktops.
When I open up a link on Desktop 1 in Thunderbird, a window opens on the
latest FireFox I used prevously; the one on the other desktop I used
last. I have to hunt down in which desktop it opened by going to each
desktop and activate it. This also happens when I open an OpenOffice
document or calc file with konqueror. Closing all apps on the desktops
before going to another desktop defeats the purpose of having different
desktops - or have I missed the rational behind different desktops. Is
it a bug or a feature?
:-(

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

Listmates,
Before I regret it, has anybody had any bad experience with an update to KDE
3.5.10. I seem to recall a week or so ago, there was a complaint about 3.5.10,
but there was very little follow up. That leads me to believe all is safe. But
getting older, I have learned to look before I leap. So anybody have any
information on the update?

Bug 445320 concerns the intel 845 (and I think many other) Intel graphics. It
only allows framebuffer graphics for these chipsets. It was found in 11.1
rc1. I've sent in some extra info and voted for the bug.
I'm not sure how bugzilla works but an upgrade to 11.1 would render my 20 node
lan useless due to screen flicker. My main concern is when are rc bugs fixed?
Is it likely to be fixed before release this week? If not what is the usual
timescale? Would it be sensible up upgrade just one box to 11.1, get Yast to
setup the install server and wait until the bug gets fixed?
cheers, L x
