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.

Hello listmates,
I have recently installed NX server, after switching to openSUSE 11.1.
However, I can't seem to log in. It used to work beautifully on openSUSE
10.3.
What I did is the following:
- First of all, to install the NX server, I added the following repository:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/RemoteDesktop/openSUSE_11.1/
>From that
This resulted in the following packages being installed:
- FreeNX
- NX
- freenx-client
- libnxcl1
- After that, I ran nxsetup, which completed without errors.
On the client, I installed version 3.3.0-6 of the NX Client for Linux from
NoMachine. I chose this client because in the past, I have had bad
experiences with the FreenNX client. The NoMachine client has always worked
well for me.
- Trying with the QtNX client, the client simply seems to freeze, without
doing anything after starting the connection.
- Up launching the NX client and entering the connection details, I start
the connection. This takes a while, after which the client responds with:
"Session startup failed". In the detail window, it says a lot more:
NX> 105 /usr/bin/nxserver: line 1371: 13828 Terminated sleep
$AGENT_STARTUP_TIMEOUT
NX> 596 Session startup failed.
NX> 1004 Error: NX Agent exited with exit status 1. To troubleshoot set
SESSION_LOG_CLEAN=0 in node.conf and investigate
"/home/<user>/.nx/F-C-<hostname>-1000-8689F93F7362B387803D3B292867F08C/session".
You might also want to try: ssh -X myserver; /usr/bin/nxnode --agent to
test the basic functionality. Session log follows:
Can't open
/var/lib/nxserver/db/running/sessionId{8689F93F7362B387803D3B292867F08C}:
No such file or directory.
mv: cannot stat
`/var/lib/nxserver/db/running/sessionId{8689F93F7362B387803D3B292867F08C}'NX>
1006 Session status: closed
: No such file or directory
NX> 280 Exiting on signal: 15
FOllowing the troubleshooting advice above, I have set SESSION_LOG_CLEAN=0
in /etc/nxserver/node.conf
I also tried the command "ssh -X myserver; /usr/bin/nxnode --agent" to test
the basic connection from the client. This gives me the following error on
the console:
NX> 1000 NXNODE - Version 2.1.0-72 OS (GPL, using backend: 3.2.0)
NX> 716 Starting NX Agent ...
Error: Aborting session with 'Server is already active for display 0
If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
and start again'.
Session: Aborting session at 'Thu Jun 4 11:07:26 2009'.
Session: Session aborted at 'Thu Jun 4 11:07:26 2009'.
NX> 716 NX Agent exited with status: 1
NX> 1001 Bye.
I find this odd, since to me this seems to be a problem with X
authorization, not something to do with NX. I have confirmed that while X
(KDE) is running, no one is logged into the machine at this point.
I have also investigated
/home/<user>/.nx/F-C-<hostname>-1000-8689F93F7362B387803D3B292867F08C/session,
to see if there is some more information there. There, it lists the
following:
NXAGENT - Version 3.2.0
Copyright (C) 2001, 2007 NoMachine.
See http://www.nomachine.com/ for more information.
Info: Agent running with pid '15613'.
Session: Starting session at 'Thu Jun 4 11:14:43 2009'.
Info: Proxy running in server mode with pid '15613'.
Info: Waiting for connection from '127.0.0.1' on port '5000'.
Info: Aborting the procedure due to signal '15'.
Error: Aborting session with 'Unable to open display
'nx/nx,options=/home/<user>/.nx/C-<hostname>-1000-8689F93F7362B387803D3B292867F08C/options:1000''.
Session: Aborting session at 'Thu Jun 4 11:14:43 2009'.
Session: Session aborted at 'Thu Jun 4 11:14:43 2009'.
I enabled logging in /etc/nxserver/node.conf, and the same information is
logged there.
I am a bit stumped as to what to try now. Does anyone have any suggestions,
please?
I'll be grateful for any help or tips which help me solve this.
Kind regards,
Joop

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.

I just notice that there will be nomore kde3 for the upcomming
openSUSE 11.2.
I don't want to grin. Not necessary.
I just wanted to ask here what do you have in kde3.5 and don't find in
kde4 and you would like to have. Not to say you will have it but to
give info to devs...
I stopped using kde4 on 11.1 for problems in the config panel and lack
of understanding of the new windows layout. I expect this to be solved
before next release;
what do you think? be constructive :-)
jdd
NB: I miss the kweather applet, but it don't work neither in kde 3.5 :-(

Today I finally installing opensuse 11.1 kde 4.2 in all machines.
Q. Using yast software manager to update the system very often I get a
curl error and a connection time out. I retry and everything is OK.
Everything is working OK but I had to be behind the screen to interact
all the time with this connection time outs. I do not remember anything
like that previously. It may be the server are very busy.
Any comments.

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?
:-(
