  What window manager should I have installed?

 Metacity is the semi-official window manager for GNOME 2. Check to see
 if you've got that. Sawfish is also GNOME-compliant, but has some quirks
 that bug me. If you don't mind compiling, you might try Openbox 3.
 AFAIK, it's not in any apt repositories yet since it's still at Release
 Candidate phase. 

Actually, there is an apt repository. You can put

deb http://www.hetzi.at/thomas/debian unstable/i386/
deb http://www.hetzi.at/thomas/debian unstable/all/
deb-src http://www.hetzi.at/thomas/debian unstable/source/

in your /etc/apt/sources.list and then do apt-get install openbox3. As 
far as I can see you still have to compile obconf from source, though.
That, along with documention, is available from http://openbox.org.

Johan

How to make ghostview/ghostscript respect BoundingBox

2003-10-13 Thread Johan Braennlund
Hello all. I have a little problem I've been struggling with for a while.
I have some postscript files where I'd like to print only part of the
pages.  I've edited the boundingbox manually and ghostview displays only
the part that I want. However, when I print the whole page is shown.

Is there any simple way to make ghostview/ghostscript retain the
boundingbox setting for printing?

Thank you in advance.

Johan

Re: sed question

In article [EMAIL PROTECTED] you wrote:
 I tried: 
 cat temp | sed 's/^[[:alpha:]]*[[:space:]]*//'  log

 Where temp is: 

 test.wilderness.org.au/about_us/whatistwsck 
 203.48.59.163 - - [26/Aug/2003 08:14:01] GET 
 http://test.wilderness.org.au/about_us/whatistws HTTP/1.0 200 20872 - 
 Dillo/0.7.3 TCP_MISS:DIRECT

 but that just removes the test from .wilderness 

If you don't mind using awk instead of sed, try 

cat temp |awk '$1=;{print}'

Re: network configuration

2003-08-28 Thread Johan Braennlund
In article [EMAIL PROTECTED] you wrote:
 Hello all. Almost there. Still working on this 486. Hopefully it will be a 
 routing, firewalling box. The 2 nics in this box are dlink 220 isa. I have 
 been able to determine that they both require the ne network module. The 
 problem is that I can not get both eth0 and eth1 working at the same time.
 eth0: io=0x300 irq=10
 eth1: io=0x240 irq=3

Googling for 'linux two nics ne module' turns up

http://www.sunhelp.org/pipermail/rescue/2002-April/053577.html

which suggests that

/sbin/modprobe io=0x300,0x240 ne

should work. If it doesn't, please post the error message.

GNOME applets not appearing in menu

2003-05-29 Thread Johan Braennlund
Hello. I'm having a problem with installing new GNOME (GNOME 2) applets in
unstable, in that they don't seem to want to appear in the applet menu
(right click - Add to Panel). For instance, I've installed multiticker, a
news ticker applet but can't for the life of me figure out how to start
it, which is kind of embarrassing. If I try to run multiticker_applet
from a shell it just tells me The GNOME panel is not running. What am I
doing wrong? The applets from the gnome-applets package work fine.

I'm just now looking at the dependencies of multiticker, and it seems like
the package is made for GNOME 1.4. Does that mean the applet won't work
with GNOME 2? If that's the case, can anyone recommend a good GNOME 2
ticker applet?

Many thanks in advance,

Johan
