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

[opensuse] I can not filter out some systemd messages in syslog
by Carlos E. R. 17 May '16

17 May '16

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I have this in "/etc/rsyslog.conf": if ($programname == 'named' or $syslogtag == '[named]:') \ then -/var/log/named & stop ... if ($msg contains 'Started Session' and $msg contains 'of user') \ then -/var/log/systemdpurged & stop # # the rest in one file # *.*;mail.none;news.none -/var/log/messages I get the expected entries in "/var/log/systemdpurged": <3.6> 2014-03-01 16:30:01 Telcontar systemd 1 - - Started Session 93 of user cer. <3.6> 2014-03-01 16:33:01 Telcontar systemd 1 - - Started Session 94 of user news. But I'm also getting them in "/var/log/messages": <3.6> 2014-03-01 16:30:01 Telcontar systemd 1 - - Starting Session 93 of user cer. <3.6> 2014-03-01 16:33:01 Telcontar systemd 1 - - Starting Session 94 of user news. And they should not be there. So the "stop" line for those systemd entries is not acting. However, it works for other sections, like the "named" section shown above, and others I do not show for clarity. Are systemd entries special? - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

[opensuse] Namebench
by Steven Hess 25 Dec '15

25 Dec '15

There was a previews thread where namebench was mentioned. I thought it was the optimizing resolv.conf thread. Anyway this is a different issue. Id like to run it. The ones I located in OBS were not functional here. What could I do to try another source? Thanks Steven -- ____________ Apply appropriate technology. Use what works without prejudice.

Hi, I am trying to set up a simple repo, I read on the opensuse site about a binary called genIS_PLAINcache, because I can't see to find it or the package yast2-packmanager either. Can someone help. 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] migration from openSUSE 12.3 to 13.2 - from ifup to wicked
by Paul Neuwirth 03 Mar '15

03 Mar '15

Hi, I struggled long to migrate fully from initd to systemd. Now before I do the step from 12.3 to 13.2, i have concerns of ifup being replaced. Not much answers found googling around. A. can ifup be used instead of wicked B. is migration easy? following setup (IPv4 only): 2 physical network cards (RTL8111/8168) eth0: LAN (DHCPd running on the machine) eth1: (static ip) as connection to VDSL2 modem dsl0: PPPoE dial-up device lo tun0: openvpn server running tun1: vpnc connection (manually created on demand using vpnc) isdn0: backup ISDN dial-in connection (started manually) modem0: backup UMTS dial-in connection (started manually) C. firewall configuration I adjusted SuSEfirewall2 configuration a lot (routing,masquerading,forwarding,...) and added custom scripts for traffic shaping using tc and iptables. have i take care of anything regarding this? Thank's a lot in advance for any info/hints. It is very hard to find information about, especially point C.

Unlike Farrugut's order at the Battle of Mobile Bay, going full-speed ahead is not going to achieve any useful objectives, yet the dangers of systemd are still there. For one, systemd is making APPLICATIONS now dependant on the systemd API, which means when even the biggest fanboys here, at Redhat, and other distributions finally are forced to admit that systemd is a crock of shit.... we won't be able to remove it.... in other words, unlike Farragut, the probability of eventually being blown out of the water by a systemd torpedo is 100%. SysV init has problems, but without a doubt, it does NOT present itself as being a massive security hole, nor present the risk of making a system unbootable. > > Cheers, Mark > -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] No sound in Minecraft
by Mike 03 Feb '15

03 Feb '15

I've asked on the minecraft forums without a response so I'm trying here in case that it might be a SuSE configuration issue. I do not have sound in the game. This has been a problem for several versions nowCurently running 1.7.5. I've also tried the last 2 snapshots. I can play music fine and was able to play the sound files in .mineraft/assets/objects/* via Amarok. I have deleted the assets folder and had re-downloaded everything. I looked in the bug list and I found a few sound related issues, but they suggested that there was some sounds. The log only mentions minecraft:mob.witch.idle, but there are no sounds at all in game, but in options everything is set to 100%. I tried to force an older version in profile editor but still no sound going back to 1.4.2. I see a java Playback Stream in the mixer and volume is 100% there too. Any ideas?
