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

Hey, for all of you KDE3 hold outs, someone's finally taking the
initiative to fork it to a new project:
http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/
So far, they're only maintaining .deb packages for Ubuntu, but if you
want to see KDE3 live on, it might be worth starting a project on the
OBS.

Since updating my system to 11.2 WLAN is broken in that knetworkmanager lists all reachable access points but connecting is not
possible, even if I switch my router (and connection settings) to unencrypted.
Since knetworkmanager shows all access points and their signal strength I'm sure my WLAN hardware is not broken.
Now I switched with yast2 to traditional (ifup) based network setup.
This did not change anything:
Still ethernet based connection works, but 'ifup eth1' (for WLAN) fails on getting an IP address:
Starting DHCP4 client on eth1. . . . . . .
eth1 DHCP4 continues in background
It is still possible to list access points with "Netzwerk durchsuchen" on a page of the 'yast2 lan' configuration module.
The only single visible difference is a polling action which starts immediately after switching to traditional setup (which
shows up my /var/log/messages because of my ipw2100 module debug flags):

The 'unassociated' messages repeat every second.
I really would like to know what's going wrong here and if it is an Intel resp. ipw2100 specific problem.

I have a deskjet F2280. Normal photocopy paper works fine.
To get high quality prints, I have to use HP paper. It will not feed any other
(I have tried kodak and epson which I'd like to use).
Printer setup by yast. OS 11.2 with KDE 3.4.5
Is there any way I can fool it into thinking it's HP paper?
Thanks

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.

After seeing a lot of praise for 11.2, and not having seen the early
complaints about its killing Intel networking, I decided to upgrade.
I followed the instructions provided on the "Upgrade/Supported" page of
the wiki. Things went pretty well, I think.
One hitch is that I needed two iterations of
zypper dup
after I'd done all the preparatory actions. When I did the first dup it
crunched for 2-1/2 hours installing thousands of packages. I got some
warnings about running processes that needed to be restarted. Since
there had been a kernel upgrade, I simply restarted the computer.
Panic followed :-). Several blank dialogs popped up. Worse yet, when I
started yast to do an online update the progress box was blank. So I
went back to the command line and did a
zypper up
Nothing to do. Meantime more blank dialogs popped up. Willing to try
anything, I did another
zypper dup
It installed hundreds more packages. One of the messages mentioned a
2.6.29... kernel, which I recalled was in 11.1.
So I rebooted again. Now uname -a says
Linux embelex 2.6.31.5-0.1-pae #1 SMP 2009-10-26 15:49:03 +0100 i686
i686 i386 GNU/Linux
so I guess I'm ok. I tried
embelex:~ # zypper up
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
Nothing to do.
then
embelex:~ # zypper dup
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
Computing distribution upgrade...
3 Problems:
sesam_srv-3.0.1-171.1.1.i586
kdm-branding-upstream-4.3.1-7.5.i586
kio_sysinfo-branding-upstream-11.2-3.2.noarch
(above slightly edited for clarity). I skipped all of them since they
don't appear to be particularly useful (except possibly sesam -- I don't
know what it is). I had installed the branding-upstream to see if kde
looked better than suse, which i suppose is the reason for the upstream
branding warnings. Now I can't get rid of them without downgrading
dozens of other packages.
So far things look good. Firefox is up to 3.5.6 and seems to work well;
Tbird is up to 3.0 and looks good; skype still appears to work (can't
test it on people at 0200, but the test call was good :-).
Oh yeah. wifi doesn't work any more. One of the 11.1 updates broke it,
and I was hoping 11.2 would fix whatever that was. It's still doing the
same thing it was before: knetworkmanager shows me my SSID, I click on
it, it churns for a while, and comes back asking for my passphrase. I
give it, and {repeat ad infinitum}.
Earlier in 11.1, knetworkmanager simply connected and after a few
seconds, I was online again. I didn't need to do anything manually.
So I'm still on ethernet.

Dev, guys,
Any body else seeing yast software management crash after you have selected
packages, are all done, and then you press "Accept"? There is nothing more
frustrating than spending 1/2 hour picking through individual packages to get
the setup you need -- only to press the final button and receive the dialog:
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
what(): locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid
YaST got signal 6 at YCP file String.ycp:128
/sbin/yast2: line 454: 12764 Aborted $ybindir/y2base $module
"$@" "$SELECTED_GUI" $Y2_GEOMETRY $Y2UI_ARGS
(process:12934): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
I don't have time to bug it right now, but if you want a look at the y2_logs
they are here:
http://www.3111skyline.com/download/openSUSE_bugs/112/y2logs.tgz
Also, when I ssh into any box from 11.2, I get:
"/usr/bin/manpath: can't set the locale; make sure $LC_* and $LANG are
correct"
I don't know if this is related, but I don't know how to fix it?
