[opensuse] strange difference in up- and downloading from sambaserver
Hi all, I have one server (Suse10.0) that has a great difference in speed when transferring data up or down a samba-share. Copying an iso-file (650MB) to the sambaserver is 10 times faster than getting it back to the PC. Since most traffic is getting data from the server, this poses rather a problem, users are complainig about it. This happens with WinXP clients and also when I do this with my 10.1 laptop. When i do scp with my laptop on the same iso-file, I still have a diff of a factor 6. Not as much as when I use smb, but still too much to be good. Somebody have any idea where I have to start looking, and what tools to use for this? I already did the documented tweaks on smb.conf with socket options, this does not help. I do not directly suspect samba, althoug here it is the worst, because the speed-diff is also there with scp. -- L. de Braal BraHa Systems NL - Terneuzen T +31 115 649333 F +31 115 649444 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

That group you can add using YaST, and add all users that need access to scanner in that group. I would create group scanner first and than go and install scanner.

It is included in the kdeutils3-extra package. If you do a search in YaST for RPM Provides and search for superkaramba you will find it.

Re: [opensuse] How can I change the default printer for Firefox
On Sun June 10 2007 18:17, Carlos E. R. wrote: Hi, I change, using cups, the default printer for the user, but Firefox still wants to use the previous default printer. How do I convince Firefox to change to the real default printer instead of his own idea of what should be the default printer? If you want to parse through Kprinter, these are the hints I give to my students on how to setup printing in Firefox: 1.1.To send print jobs through Kprinter, enter as URL “about:config”, then change the entry “print.postscript.print_command”, “print.print_command” and “print.printer_Postscript/default.print_command” to Value: “kprinter”. When printing select “PostScript/default” as “Printer Name”. 1.2.To prevent cropping of header and footer when printing, change “Gap from edge to Margin” to 0.25 inches in all sides in Printer / Properties in the Print window.

Re: [opensuse] strange difference in up- and downloading from sambaserver

Somebody have any idea where I have to start looking, and what tools to use for this? I already did the documented tweaks on smb.conf with socket options, this does not help. I do not directly suspect samba, althoug here it is the worst, because the speed-diff is also there with scp. Well its good you don't directly suspect samba, because you more or less proved it was more generic than that. How is it connected to the other machines? In house network? Wide area network (internet)? This sounds more like a network problem than a samba problem but you give is precious little info about your network. -- _ John Andersen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This does not work (or at least I am not able to make it work). Without having looked at the code: What exactly is the problem? (And: don't expect IE to understand max-width [don't know about IE7]) The page consists of two floating columns, the bigger one has got a left margin that corresponds with the width of the left column. When specifying a max width for the footer, the text is centered within the area specified by max-width and not within the parent div. Sounds like you want to use a nested div. Not nice, but should work ;-) (and IE will simply ignore it, which isn't a real problem) Search Box: Apropos search box: It seems it has a hardcoded height: which is unfortune for people who have a very large font size. Without the fixed height, I do not see a way to make the round corners work in IE (at least not in IE 5.x)... . Then define the fixed height for IE only please ;-) Sigh, this will be a lot of work - the search box code needs to be rewritten completely. I will see what I can do. It's perfect now - thanks! Now to the problems this change discovered in combination with large font size - see screenshot on www.cboltz.de/tmp/opensuse-disco.png ;-) Oh, come on ;-) - with a font-size that big the page is unusable anyway. *g* I know, but usually testing with extremes makes things better for the normal usecases - and speeds up finding bugs a lot ;-) - on small screens there will be an openSUSE Disco ;-)) because Discover it is cut off - the search box and the Go button are also cut off Sure - they just don't fit in the parent element box anymore ;-). OK, defining the left/right margins in px Much better, thanks! and the height in em helped a lot. I'm not sure if defining the height in em was a good idea. Now the green box is too heigh on large font sizes. Or fix it the other way round and allow line wraps in the top menu again. Then the height will be OK and the top menu is usable with all font sizes ;-) Choose whatever you want... Nevertheless, when enlarging the font to a certain extend you will reach a point where the search box and/or the slogan won't fix anymore. I know ;-) - OTOH, there's enough whitespace (to be exact: greenspace ;-) unused around these elements - so there's no real need to cut them off - The Article / Discussion / ... bar only uses the half width, causing too much unneeded linebreaks Should be fixed by now. Not really - now the language dropdown is cut off at the left even at small font sizes :-( Screenshot: http://www.cboltz.de/tmp/opensuse-menu.png Proposal: make the dropdown float:right instead of assigning a column width of xx % . OK, so div is reserved as freestyle element ;-) in the hope that nearly nobody uses it... Nobody should in a wiki - why? And I wouldn't call it freestyle - it is just the bare element with no styles attached to it. ... and the possibility to add style=... ;-) However, I agree that it shouldn't be used. Hmm, just curious: Special:Allpages has no borders at the table, Tagformatting has borders. So there *must* be a difference somewhere... ==lt;tablegt;lt;captiongt;lt;trgt;lt;tdgt;lt;thgt;== {| border=1 width=50% ;-) What about {| class=nopadding and .nopadding td { ... } ? ;-) Another thing that was mentioned some time ago, but obviously got lost: The grey boxes should use a slightly darker grey. The current one is nearly invisible on white (especially on laptop displays). Not forgotten, but postponed. Anyway, it's a bit darker now ( s/F0F0F0/E0E0E0/ ) My laptop display likes it ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz -- [vordefinierte Perlvariablen $_, $, $[ usw.] Steht eigentlich in $§ die Lizenz? ;-))) $ perl -we 'print $§' Use of uninitialized value in print at -e line 1.
