Talking about openoffice, anyone know how is it translated?
Does it use the official machon hatkanim hebrew?

Ely, what is Machon Hatkanim Hebrew? Since when is Machon Hatkanim an
authority on the Hebrew language? Can you point us to a site or something
about this standard?
Or do you perhaps refer to the Academy of the Hebrew Language?

 I apologize for asking this again, but I didn't get any answers to my
 post of 2 weeks ago and hope maybe someone does know what my problem
 is.

 On a new installation of MDK10.1, SOME (but not all) non-KDE
 applications run with completely unreadable fonts. For example,
 j-pilot, usbview and LinNeighborhood are completely unusable because
 I can't read anything - menues, button text, toolbars, etc. These
 applications worked for me in MDK10.0 and I can't figure out what
 I've screwed up. I've GOOGLED and experimented with KDE settings and
 can't solve this.

 I'm quite sure the problem is actually X and not KDE because the
 problem also exists in Gnome (which I don't usually use).

most likely these applications use the GNOME font settings - IIRC at 
least LinNeighborhood is a GTK+ application. try to set the fonts for 
GNOME using gnome-font-properties (also available as 
Menu-System-Configuration-GNOME-.. , at least under GNOME)

Although, as I wrote, I don't use GNOME, I opened a GNOME session and tried 
playing with the settings you recommended. But either I don't know enough 
about what to look for in GNOME or that's not the problem. In any case, it 
does seem strange to me that applications running on the KDE desktop would 
depend on GNOME font settings. Am I wrong? Also, as I wrote, these 
applications worked fine in MDK10.0 and I'm sure I didn't set up anything via 
the GNOME desktop.


BTW - this is a completely different problem, but something strange happened 
when I ran GNOME. I discovered that I could use the keyboard shortcut I 
choose at installation to switch between English and Hebrew. In KDE I can 
only switch languages using the KDE Keyboard tool from the KDE panel.

The Hod Ami dictionary is based on the cooperation between Machon hatkanim

site but I couldn't find it.

Getting io statistics on processes.

2005-01-10 Thread Tzahi Fadida
Hello all,
I am currently programming a database operator algorithm and
i need to experiment with different kinds of settings for it.
I am looking for io statistics per process in Linux.
I need to count the number of read/write blocks from the
magnetic disk a process performs.
I am looking for a utility that does that and especially
a c library since I am in control of that process internal
programming.
In windows, it seems, you just open the task manager.
In Linux, from what I have managed to gather in Google
it is not in by default because of performance issues.
besides that I would also like to know the time a process
waits for io. 

p.s: Mind you that I am aware of iostat,etc... but
apparently they are per device and not per process.

10x.

Regards,
tzahi.

Hi,
I don't know why, I was not able to reach convexhull from home.I
got it the day before yesterday from work and I went through it
and skimmed some of the references.
It seems that old video cards/monitors did not detect correctly
the physical size of the screen, and the procedure described
there allows one to tell the system the correect values (I don't
have this problem). One can cheat and obtain thus larger-looking
fonts, but this has side effects. Actually one can obtain
larger-looking fonts without those side effects by chosing a
different display mode.
As I wrote to the list, my immediate problem is solved. I am left
with the question of the usability of proportional true-type
fonts in linux: either the cinemascope like term one gets with
them is not of concern to some people who recommend their use, 
or there is some detail one consistently forgets to mention
I googled intensively without being able to find out the answer.
Cheers, Avraham

Are you ignoring the caches here? 

 I am looking for a utility that does that and especially

This is information that has to be exported from the kernel. I think
tha laptop mode patches (merged in 2.6) include at least some of this,
and can probably be extended to give you the rest.
