If I'm understanding this right, that'd work for me!! Thanks for the discussion. As a 'drop in' part of xastir itself, I'd guess it'd make things quite a bit larger distribution wise, but sure would make the cross platform bit sweet. I'd be a bit concerned with crossing up users package

[Xastir] Easy fix for missing slider text in SUSE 10.2 and 10.3

2007-10-06 Thread David Flood
Hello one and all, After upgrading to SUSE 10.3 (further pitfalls and gotcha's to follow later), I see that it still has the slider text bug in OpenMotif. However, there is an easy fix and I also verified that it works in 10.2 also. (I haven't put this in the Wiki yet, I only just got

or another way to downgrade OpenMotif... you can use Yast (search for 'motif' to find the installed libraries) to uninstall the existing 2.3 version of openMotif, and then use the procedure below from the HowTo:OpenSUSE 10.2 in the Wiki to install the older version. Use Firefox to browse to the

Unfortunately just installing the rpm's won't work in 10.3 since other stuff now depends on it so you have to use Yast so the dependencies are cleaned up. Oh and the first thing I do on any SUSE system is uninstall Zen since it is a memory hog and cpu cycle stealer so I have to use Yast. Dave

I just put in the FC2 version on my F7 machine and backed out lesstif-devel. I ended up having to create a symlink for the shared libraries and all is running fine. Even the slider bars appear to be fine. 73 from 807, Richard, N6NKO Lee Bengston wrote: Thanks, I guess I won't be in a hurry

Also said they intended to keep Navteq as a separate operating unit. This is a play to get first dibs on location-based services maps. I anticipate they'll still sell those to competitors, but that the price may go up a bit. If they go up too much someone else will fill the void. gerry

Don't know if we could include the database engine in Xastir, and that's rather contrary to the Unix Way of Doing Things, but we could facilitate portage, rpm's and deb's to cover most of the obvious ones with a postgres dependency, and a component to add the postgis patch. More'n likely my

I watched it for a couple of more days after it last came up and it started calming down. I'll try to carve some time out on Monday. What I need to identify if this is something with the latest build of AWIPS or WarnGen being fed into the system. gerry Tom Russo wrote: On Sat, Oct 06,
