I am currently trying to get SuSE 6.4 configured and are having diffuclties with truetype font recognition. Firstly I have got fonts installed in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype I can get xfstt to sync and find fonts, even shows on startup screen when starting box, xfstt startetd found 28 fonts, I can do next phase of xfstt & to start the server and confirmed with ps that it is running, sometimes the fonts even show up in fontmanager. It all falls apart when I do the xset fp+ unix/:7101 it returns with Cannot open TCPIP port 7101 Better try another port! If I add unix/:7101 to XF86Config, it will not allow XF86Config to initialise at startup causing a X hang no boot into GUI. I have downloaded patch from SuSE, this is one that I am working with, if there is another alternative instead of xfstt I would gratefully try it. Oh yes I have even tried changing directories as per docs with xfstt.

Here are a couple of possibilities - First, you could look at http://www.firstnethou.com/gz/xfsft_HOW-TO_for_SuSE.html and see if this offers any help. Secondly, you could try xfsft. I have some precompiled binaries at http://www.math.missouri.edu/~stephen/software/#truetype http://www.math.missouri.edu/~stephen/software/xfsft/ After installing your truetype fonts, get a hold of the appropriate Xserver from my web site (e.g. XF86_S3 if you are currently using that), and simply add a line to XF86Config FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype" just after the fixed fonts.

Hello, actually the new HOW-TO for xfsft is: http://www.firstnethou.com/gz/xfsft_HOW-TO_for_SuSE.html The steps are the same as in the old one, I just added some commentary beforehand. George Tue, 06 Jun 2000, ÷Ù ÎÁÐÉÓÁÌÉ:

Sime? tapped away at the keyboard with:

try something like grep exit `grep -l root *` grep will only match patterns on one line. That's probably not what you want. A Perl(*) solution (don't snigger!) is possible without the command substitution (back-quotes). OTOH, awk might do the same trick in 10% of the memory and CPU cycles. :-) (*) Pathologically-Eclectic Rubbish Lister -- Bernd Felsche - Innovative Reckoning Perth, Western Australia -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

-p says print. So that would print all lines once and the ones that match twice. perl -ne 'print if /\broot\b/ && /\bexit\b/' file Of course one would want to define what a word is.

You are right ofcourse. The -p should have been a -n Slip of the keyboard... Koos Pol ---------------------------------------------------------------------- S.C.
