Adding fonts?
by Tracer Bullet 22 Aug '16

22 Aug '16

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

I am setting this repo up for SLE9, I have tried to use createrepo but I keeping getting errors. -- ---------------------------------------- When a place gets crowded enough to require ID's, social collapse is not far away.

[opensuse] DenyHosts daemon mode on openSUSE 11.3
by LLLActive＠GMX.Net 23 Jan '15

23 Jan '15

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

[opensuse] What is the "official" way to mount floppy in openSUSE 12.x?
by Istvan Gabor 20 Jun '14

20 Jun '14

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.

[opensuse] Any chance of convincing Gimp to consider a .png as a valid saved image?
by Carlos E. R. 24 Sep '13

24 Sep '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I scan images using gimp and xsane. If I scan a dozen images, I have to keep track of what I save to PNG or JPG, because GIMP insists that none are saved and that I'm going to lose my data. It wants me to save as XCF and I will not. Any chance of changing this behavior? It is disruptive. :-/ - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] What replaces SuSEconfig?
by Carlos E. R. 31 Jul '13

31 Jul '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I know that instead fo the SuSEconfig permission module, we have to use "chkstat". Instead of "SuSEconfig.fonts" we have "/usr/sbin/fonts-config". I know there is a module that handles /etc/sysconfig/mail and postfix. Wht's its name? - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] Android print solution?
by David C. Rankin 15 Jul '13

15 Jul '13

Guys, With the iphone we were able to configure good print function via CUPS/Avahi, is there anything similar that can be done with an Android tablet? Looking, it doesn't appear that there is any basic print capability provided by Android (3.2 Honeycomb). I would like to print to by openSuSE server in the same manner I do from iOS. Anybody found a good solution? I have found PrintBot, but that isn't a solution because it cannot be used legally where confidentiality is required. (data is transferred to a 3rd party server before printing). I need to find a direct print solution. What says the braintrust? -- David C.

[opensuse] How should one make /media a tmpfs under 12.3?
by Carlos E. R. 09 Jul '13

09 Jul '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, In 12.1 /media was a tmpfs and was created in an init script (/etc/init.d/boot.localfs): if test -d /media && ! mountpoint -q /media; then mount -n -t tmpfs -o mode=0755,nodev,nosuid tmpfs /media fi In 12.3 I tried creating "/etc/tmpfiles.d/media.conf": d /media 0755 root root 10d But it does not work, because something creates that directory as a physical directory before the tmpfs can be created. Who/what is creating it? - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.
