Re: [opensuse-factory] [maybe offtopic] Pattern that breaks Yast?
Dňa Ut 15. Máj 2007 17:07 Alan Mosca napísal: Firstly thanks for your reply. I just checked the packages by going with an install without the pattern and then installing them one by one, and it seems like one of them specifically is breaking yast. All the custom rpms I'm building are being built on a SLES 10 machine, do you think that could be the cause? Basically yes. YaST2 core uses dynamic library loading a lot and it can break easily if you don't build all core packages against the same system.

Regards, Alberto I disagree with this, I think that a bug review should be scheduled as soon as reasonable. While your statements about it being too early are true for the bugs listed against the 10.3 release, the bugs listed against the older releases should really be addressed as quickly as possible so that they stand a chance of making it into the 10.3 at all. If you wait too long on this, they will skip yet another release cycle.

[opensuse] no brochure printing in opensuse ooo2.2
For some time I've used the brochure printing facility in the versions of openoffice.org downloaded from the openoffice.ord site to produce A5 brochures, catalogues, programmes etc. However, in the latest version of openoffice 10.2 downloaded from the opensuse servers, it is no longer possible to print in brochure format. Briefly, for those who have not used this facility in openoffice, you set a page format of A5 portrait, enter your text and graphics, and then at printing time choose the options sub-dialogue of the print dialogue and select 'brochure', then in the printer properties dialogue, set the paper size to A4 and the orientation to Landscape. A multipage brochure is then printed out in A5 format, with all the pages arranged for stapling. (if you haven't got a duplex printer, you have to make 2 passes, but the page size and orientation principle remains the same). Full explanations are in the openoffice help under 'brochures', with the specific instruction to set the orientation to Landscape. In the 'standard' openoffice package downloaded from the ooo site, this works as described. You can see a .png of the printer properties dialogue on http://www.kingshome.co.uk/ooo/bugs/standard-ooo2.2.png Similarly, the staroffice 8 version is the same: http://www.kingshome.co.uk/ooo/bugs/staroffice8.png These have been tested out on both Suse 10 and opensuse 10.2 However, the recent opensuse ooo2.2 (on both suse 10 and 10.2) does not behave in the same way. When you click on the printer properties, a dialogue comes up that does not allow you to set landscape orientation for the paper, as shown on: http://www.kingshome.co.uk/ooo/bugs/opensuse-ooo2.2.png This makes it impossible to print out in brochure format with 2 A5 portrait pages side by side. It seems as if the orientation in the opensuse version of ooo can only be that of the page format in the original document, not the one set at printing time, as in the 'standard' versions. I don't know whether this is a bug or not, but it is odd that it behaves differently. I've also tried this out with different printers, with the same result in the various applications, so I do not think it is a printer driver problem.

Re: [opensuse] no brochure printing in opensuse ooo2.2

[opensuse] VPN Client (Solved)
A little while ago, I asked about the KVpnc client, as I was being unsuccessful in using it to connect to my work. I had used the Cisco vpnclient but wanted something with a single-click (GUI) and that wouldn't break every time I updated the kernel. Unfortunately, it just doesn't work for me. Today, I copied the cisco VPN client from my desktop system and installed it. I have the Cisco Systems VPN Client Version 4.8 and sure enough, it works out of the box. I just installed it, copied my .pcf file over to the Profiles folder and ran it as root. Works like a charm.

[opensuse] copying CD--more
I suppose I broke the thread, but I have no choice--the Linux machine is apart, and I have to write in Windows. I put the new writer drive in the machine, but I probably don't have the master/slave thing set right. The original, read-only drive has S L A available, and is jumper-set on A. The new writable drive has S L A, and also says S is cable select, L is slave, and A is master. It is jumper-set on L. It also says that C S is cable select S L is slave and M A is master So it looks like it is set up correctly, but, the system does not seem to recognize the new drive. The cable for the original drive has another connector on it, which I plugged into the new drive. What now? Do I need some kind of install routine?

Is there anything Open-Source on Linux that have similar functionality ? I didn't see any claims in there about improving file transfers, only about combining techniques to improve efficiency. One thing you have to bear in mind is that any channel has some fixed bandwidth limit, which cannot be exceeded. You can apply various tricks, such as compression etc., to improve data through put, but sooner or later you're going to hit that bandwidth limit. So, if you took data, with a lot of redundancy, you could compress it to a small fraction of it's size, transmit it and then uncompress at far end. This would give the appearance of having transmitted far more data, but in fact, you've only reduced the amout of data that had to be transmitted. This is a common, everyday function in modems, cell phones, image files and many, many other examples. Back in the dialup modem days, a common technique was Van Jacobson compression, where the headers were reduced, be elimiating redundant data. So, no you will not be able to download a huge file, in a short time, unless it has a lot of redundant info. -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Once page is downloaded it will be used from cache and there will be no difference except in the wallet :-) The above was example how it may work, and it was selected intentionally to show speed. It is mostly html/text and idea came from your comment specially crafted :-) . There is no non-compressed version that we can compare with, but there is a lot of similar pages that can be used for that purpose. I can't barely see difference on pretty good sized broadband, but someone on dialup should see substantial difference to similar pages, and the most important with Linux you don't need external software. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It was definitely a dial-up-only service.

[now OT] Re: [opensuse] knetwork manager issues
Wow, you are a rude little boy! Is that really the best you can come up with! Swearing only serves to debase your argument. Oh, wait, you don't have one! And you don't have the stones to air your opinion on the list. I really do think that the self-appointed List Police need to give it a rest. If you want to do something your way, then that's OK, but I still want to do things MY way! I have participated in a number of Linux-related lists, and the 'my-way-or-the-highway' attitude dished-out by a number of participants on this list is appalling! New users come here for help, but won't bother if they get assaulted for every post. Once upon a time there was a guy who believed that he knew how people wanted to use computers. He believed that everybody should use a computer the way HE wanted to use HIS computer. His name was Bill, and the result was Windows. Unfortunately for Bill, and fortunately for us, we have a choice. I use Linux. I use the computer just the way I want to.

[opensuse] Thunderbird 2.0 and Reply to List
I've been waiting for an update for a few weeks, but nothing yet (I didn't report anything because I thought it would be obvious). Is anyone else using Thunderbird 2.0 from the build service and the Reply to List extension? It worked on the beta and rc builds, but not on the final. Usually it is some Enigmail problem, and usually it is fixed within a few days, but not this time. Is it working for anyone? It was a very nice feature for mailing lists. Just to make sure it is a problem with the package and not just a local problem. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 running openSUSE 10.2 x86_64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
