Adding fonts?

by Tracer Bullet

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 -- ---KMail 1.2--- SuSE Linux v7.2--- Registered Linux User #225206 /tracerb(a)sprintmail.com/ *Magic Page Products* *Team Amiga* http://home.sprintmail.com/~tracerb

DenyHosts daemon mode on openSUSE 11.3

by LLLActive＠GMX.Net

Hi, I am trying to run DenyHosts on OS 11.3. I can get it to sync and update the hosts.deny file, but with "rcdenyhosts status" it reports as being "unused" just after I started it with "rcdenyhosts start". I tried also with yast, setting up as a service (daemon) and starting it. It also stops immediately. In the denyhosts.log file there is no error info, just what it used to set it up at start. I've gone through the configs several times, no joy. Anyone got DenyHosts running properly? :-/ Dreiel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

What is the "official" way to mount floppy in openSUSE 12.x?

by Istvan Gabor

Hello: The subject says the question. [In pre 12 suse versions I had a /media/floppy directory where the floppy could be mounted at (by using the floppy icon on KDE3's desktop). In 12.x there is no such directory, and if created it will be removed at next boot, as I know correctly. Of course I could make a floppy dir under / or somewhere else, but I'd prefer its location to be in /media, since floppy is a media. Why should it be then outside of media dir?] What is the official way of mounting floppy in 12.x.? I have openSUSE 12.1 with KDE3 currently.

13.1 on ThinkPad X60s

by Thorolf Godawa

Hi everybody, I'm trying to install openSUSE 13.1 on a ThinkPad X60s (CoreDuo, Intel 950 graphics, Intel 3945ABG wifi, SanDisk 128GB SSD). The installation goes through mostly fine, all hardware is detected correctly but I'm not able to establish a wifi-connection (shows SSIDs fo available APs, but does not get an IP), so I went for cable to finish the installation including all updates. On next reboot, it takes quite long (>60s) to go over the Grub showing the boot menu and the system is not booting into runlevel 5 at all, last message seen is "Started SuSEfirewall2 phase 2". I can change to an other console, after connecting a cable I have working network and I can start XFCE4 manually from there. I can get over the "Started SuSEfirewall2 phase 2" if I switch the network from NetworkManager to ipup, but then I'm not able to get a Wifi connection anymore (only SSIDs viewable, but no IP-connection). Finally the system shutdown takes too long it shows "Started Show Plymouth Power Off Screen" (after pressing ESC) for about 90s and then shuts down very fast. Any ideas for this? I'm using 13.1, because it should be a "evergreen" version, while I was a SuSE user for long time, I stopped using it some time ago, because I was not willing to do frequent distribution upgrades, so "evergreen" seems to be a good option for me. -- kind regards, Thorolf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

opensuse12.3 - cannot make ext drive available to all users

by John King

We recently upgraded our office desktop to opensuse 12.3, and have run into a problem with external drives. Our office desktop is used by several people during the day; each user has her/his own account, and users switch between them with the usual ctrl+alt+Fn combination. Most of our data is stored on an external drive. The first user plugs it in, and the last user of the day ejects it and stores it away securely. At least, that's what used to happen with opensuse 12.2. Since moving to 12.3, we find we can't do that. The first user has sole use of the drive in /var/run/media/<username1>, and other users have no access, which means they cannot access or update our data. Is there any (fairly straightforward) way we can restore the previous behaviour, and allow multiple users to access the external drive?

What IS wrong with multimedia in 13.1?!

by Basil Chupin

What IS wrong with VLC and k3b in 13.1? I cannot play Blu-ray files using VLC in 13.1 even though I have (as far as I know) all the necessary files installed - yet I can play the same Bd discs (or rather open the Directory-ies or execute individual m2ts files) in openSUsE 12.3. I cannot do a copy of, eg, a CD using k3b - keeps coming up with an error of not being able to open the disc - in 13.1 while k3b in 12.3 happily and without any drama makes a copy of any CD I "throw" at it! 12.3 = OK. 13.1 = crap. Why? I have another thread here which I started days ago, Subject "13.1 + vlc + Blu-ray", but now k3b is involved so I thought it best to start a new thread. MOST frustrating re above simply because both work as expected in 12.3 but suddenly 13.1 goes belly-up re these 2 applications. Anybody suggest, please, steps to take to resolve this situation?
