Anyone think that installing LaTeX from the 7.3 CD's onto an 8.0 box will fubar it? The beta of LaTeX that came with 8.0 has foobarred a lot of scripts and programs I use which is just not cool. -=Ben --=====-----=====-- mailto:ben@whack.org --=====-- Tell me what you believe..I tell you what you should see. -DP --=====-----=====--

Most probably it will make it SNAFU. I have noticed earlier you were tryting to get muttprint to work out which I do not use so I can not test it but what else is failing ? I have a working a latex and teTeX and if I can make hyphenation with Turkish you should be able to sing and dance :) -- Togan Muftuoglu Unofficial SuSE FAQ Maintainer http://dinamizm.ath.cx
Actually, It worked quite nicely with the acception of really, really pissing off apt. :) Muttprint prints and works just fine and nothing else that I use has freaked..so for now it stays until someone at SuSE can tell me why they used a beta of LaTeX instead of the release version or at least something that doesn't make things puke up on themselves. ;) I actually don't use LaTeX for anything accept with muttprint which requires it. I didn't actually have it installed until I installed muttprint. If I could find a way to have mutt just use CUPS and print as nicely..I would. But since I can't seem to find any info on it...and I print a lot of stuff out of email..I guess I have to do what I have to for now.

Does anyone know how to replace the default browser (netscape) with the one of my choice (opera). Changing the file associations in KDE (3.0) doesn't seem to help and the help doesn't help because it doesn't work... (anyone got a cure for that?) thx mja

Evolution is a Gnome program, you would need to change that in the Gnome control centre: gnomecc. The option is under URL Handlers. Charles -- "Linux poses a real challenge for those with a taste for late-night hacking (and/or conversations with God)." (By Matt Welsh)

Document handler -> default application -> web browser -> select opera as the default web browser. 2. Document handler -> URL handler -> set the protocols http and https to the command opera "%s" The above works with konqueror and galeon so try it with opera. -- Ralph Sanford - If your government does not trust you, rsanford@telusplanet.net - should you trust your government?
