[expert] gimp & xsane
hi all! i'm using gimp-1.2.2 & xsane-0.79 with sane-1.0.5 i cannot load xsane or xscanimage plugins at gimp startup here is the message: /usr/local/lib/gimp/1.2/plug-ins/xsane: GIMP support missing LibGimp-WARNING **: gimp: wire_read: unexpected EOF the same with xscanimage xsane was built with gimp plugin support. xsane and xscanimage are present in the gimp plugins directory, gimp and xsane have been built with the same compiler, gcc-2.95.3, and with the same libraries. with some old gimp versions, all what u had to do to add xsane plugin was to create a symlink in /usr/local/lib/gimp/1.x/plug-ins. then xsane was avaible by clicking on the "acquire" button. i tried this method with gimp-1.2.2 with no more result. what's wrong? gimp? xsane? me? thanks for help bye jipe ps i tried some other versions, gimp-1.3.2 xsane-0.83 sane-1.0.6 allway the same :(( -- La loi éternelle de l'honneur force la science à regarder bravement en face tout problème qui se présente à elle.

RE: [expert] Tyan Dual AMD board
Hi, I want to say that measurements in amd boards can be wrong and cannot be quantitative we can say. But all measurements can be taken as qualitative. For example same temp measurement Athlon 1333 produces 50 deg for idle, when we insert the XP 1800+ it only shows 40 degs. I thing from this experiment you can say XP runs cooler. This is qualitative result. Regards, Kursad Kayaturk MSc. Mech.

While I'm convinced that AMD has the better cpu's (as of right now), and the motherboard chipsets to run 'em (specially since Intel left BX)... They don't have the support for accurate core temp reporting. Intel cpu's have internal diodes, AMD does now (XP), but no motherboard support for it. and ... Measuring the cpu temp from a thermistor is about as good as measuring the temperature of wires in a wall ... by pressing a thermometer against the plaster (sheetrock). A Major reason the AMD cpu's are not generally well accepted for indusrial strength server applications. I've gotta Tbird 1.4/266 oc'd to 1.55/270 desktop. lm_sensors reports it at low 40C's most of the time, max 50C under extreme load (cpuburn, 'burnK7'). Actual core temp is probly 10 to 30C higher. Who knows ?? Most likely it runs about 15C higher internally, than reported. For those who are skeptical of oc'ing, it produces the same temps at the default 1.4ghz. BUT, I digress. AMD needs to get some real hardware i2c support. Otherwise it's all just a guess. The proposal that XP's run cooler is also just a guess, based mostly on "it ought to", or "they say it does". -- Tom Brinkman Corpus Christi, Texas, USA Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I am answering mostly just because it seems that no one else is going to. I do not think this can be solved by installing an rpm. You may need to take a look at ghostview, which i understand does the postscript conversion for printing. If you save a web page to a file with mozilla, does it then display correctly with gv or another ps viewer? If not, you might need to install the proper fonts for ghostview to use for displaying and printing. How to do that would involve reading some of the ghostscript documentation --- personally, i have yet to install any fonts for printing. (It is on my list of things to do, but for the moment i do not need it, so i have not done it.) I hope this at least is not wrong and gives an accurate idea of where to start. If i am totally wrong, at least that might give someone a reason to stand up and tell you so. -- Chris Spackman gpg: 9B6B 860E 7C06 787F 366F 5D3E 7152 DCB2 FC51 51B9 Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[expert] KDE retarded about sound
Perhaps someone who knows the silly ins and outs of KDE can explain exactly what I need to do to correct the Alzheimer's my KDE 2.2.1 is suffering from? Mandrake 8.1, kernel-2.4.8-34 and 2.4.17. If I totally wipe out my .kde directory plus ALL my entries in /tmp, all my ~/.DCOP-* and ~/tmp/ksocket-* and any and all kde-related socket, server, etc crap files and reboot I can get my sound working. If I make any changes to the soundserver via kcontrol after starting kde after this, however, artsd crashes with a cpu overload message and messages in .xsession-errors abot being unable to connect to the dcopserver, etc. Rebooting after this, restarting X and re-logging in - nothing works to get sound back except a new, fresh wipeout of all my kde configs. It is about to drive me off KDE and into the arms of Gnome or Enlightenment. What does one have to do to get the goddamn artsd retard-daemon to obtain a clue about itself and actually do its job? How does one get sound back short of having to wipe out all kde settings plus any and all kde-socket/daemon files? praedor __ Do You Yahoo!? Great stuff seeking new owners in Yahoo!

Re: [expert] /etc is for miscellaneous files?
So sprach »Felix Miata« am 2002-01-24 um 14:31:28 -0500 : >What about /usr/local/share for non-binaries? /usr/share (or /usr/local/share) is often a good place to put non-binary things (such as documentation). Problems arise because /usr/local really is for 'local' files (stuff outside the distribution) and furthermore, /usr usually is mounted on a non-root partition. Many things in /etc need to be available on the root partition, it would seem. It would be kind of difficult to read start up scripts from /usr/local/share/config/rc, iwith one's mtab in there as well - kind of a catch 22 situation, I think :). /ctc is of course the 'traditional' place, and although it is mostly used for configuration files, that wasn't always the case. The original Unix directory layout was far more simplified than it is today, and /etc used to hold superuser binaries, things like 'mount', things that we would normally put in /sbin or /usr/sbin nowadays.

Not that I know of, but I usually turn kudzu off after first boot (I don't change hardware in any of my machines too much anymore). I'd reckon that there would be plenty of posts about people having problems with kudzu and 2.4.17 if that were the case, though.

Re: [expert] Sound working - and kernel 2.4.17
Mandrake adds a lot of things, including supermount support and for their 2.4.17 kernels thus far, a set of security updates that reduce the system's vulnerability to buffer overflow exploits, makes the system hard to identify via port scans, makes it less visable entirely to stealth scans, reduces vulnerabilities to DoSing, and so forth. The ultimate intent is to include supermount into the kernel, but they haven't yet even though it has been a good while since it was introduced (linus himself has indicated he plans to see supermount added to the default kernel ...it is just taking forever to get there). As for security...why hasn't linus added the NSA security measures to linux? Those are solid security patches/improvements, yet they are not in the linux kernel by default. Who knows what logic is used to decide (sometimes not much - see the complete change in VM right in the middle of the 2.4.x development tree and the stink that caused). praedor --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Praedor Tempus said: > > My next move will be to try to get the current > kernel config I > > successfully used with the basic 2.4.17 kernel > with the mandrake > > 2.4.17.8 kernel.

Re: [expert] Getting rid of a banner page
The only help I can offer in this area is by using kups (not part of the default install but on disk 1 of 8.1) During the setup of a printer you can chose to have a banner or not have a banner as well as a trailing banner. Maybe looking at the code it generates will help. I'm looking now but not finding where it writes it's config files. It doesn't seem to make any changes to cupsd.conf but it also doesn't print the banners. If I do find out what and where it's writing I'll let you know but for the moment this is what I've used to get rid of banners.

I would recommend any of the Antex SX series of cases. They are all built of heavy steal, have nice rounded edges, and depending on the model you get, some come with a front panel w/ door. However, the biggest problem w/ computer cases is that you get cheap when talking under 100CDN and my SX 1030B cost me almost 200CDN to buy.

[expert] Wine questions
All, I'm playing around with wine just to see what it can/can't do. I'm running on a dual boot box windows and mandrake 8.1. I've grabed the codeweavers wine rpm from their site. Here's the intresting parts. When from a term window I type # wine /mnt/win/Program\ Files/Internet\ Explorer\iexplore.exe the program runs just fine (no icons on the control bar but that's ok). Now if I go into the menu editor and enter the same command as a menu item wine dies with error number 2 (whatever that is) Why would it work from the command line but not from the menu? Side note. IE running under wine can't go to www.microsoft.com other sites yes but microsft no. hmmm James Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
