openoffice and user installed truetype fonts
by Mark Fonnemann 08 Jun '04

08 Jun '04

Hello- i'm trying to use a user installed truetype font under openoffice.. this is what i did: mkdir /usr/local/fonts/ttf cp * /usr/local/fonts/ttf cd /usr/local/fonts/ttf ttmkfdir > fonts.scale mkfontdir chkfontpath -a /usr/local/fonts/ttf this worked i.e. the palatino font (pala.ttf, palai.ttf, palab.ttf, and palabi.ttf) and the garamond font (gara.ttf, garab.ttf, and garabi.ttf) displayed text correctly and they both showed up under the font menu in openoffice. but now, after upgrading to openoffice.org-1.1.1-5, the text is not being rendered correctly and under the font menu, palatino appears only as (i'm guessing) a printer font (it has a little printer icon next to it). garamond does not appear whatsoever in the menu. did i forget to do something to make this work correctly? or, is this a problem with openoffice.org-1.1.1-5. i'm sorry for not providing more debugging info but i'm not exactly sure what i should provide. any help would be greatly appreciated.. thanks again, mark. :-) p.s. please no personal attacks. :-) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

See: 'man i810': It should be using MesaGL software render not restarting however. I am using 16bpp color and it restarts the desktop. I have MesaGL installed. I can run ZSNES ( super nintendo emulator) running at 1024x768 full screen using opengl but thats it. Anything else that I try (using full screen) will restart the desktop, or a game like Return to Castle Wolfenstein (Linux version, minimum requirements p2 450 128MG ram) will restart the desktop.

Thinkpad X40 and xorg-6.7.0-3
by Giuseppe Castagna 08 Jun '04

08 Jun '04

Dear List, I have installed FC2 on my ThinkPad X40. Most of the features work fine out-of-the-box apart from video, which has some annoying problems. The machine uses an Intel 82852/855GM integrated graphic device. I have tried standard FC2, changed color depths, upgraded to custom kernels and Arjan's builds as well as to the xorg version in fedora update-testing (6.7.0-3): the problems persist. The first noticeable problem is that whenever I close the laptop lid and reopen it the upper part of the screen (about half of the size of the gnome panel) gets corrupted since the image is shifted down of the corresponding space. This is not annoying since a simple ctrl-alt-F1 ctrl-alt-f7 sequence restores everything. What is *really* annoying is that this corruption appears when I switch to the external monitor as well (and the f1-f7 trick no longer works since the image returns back on the LCD screen). This makes the laptop not usable for presentations, which is one of the main uses of it (I have to boot in WinXP to give a presentation). Also (but this is a minor problem), when I try to use xv with mplayer on the external monitor, the mplayer window is blue. Does any of you have any suggestion on how I can overcome at least the external monitor corruption problem? I attach my xorg.conf file. Thanks in advance ---Beppe---

su fails due to pam_selinux.so
by Jonathan Corbet 08 Jun '04

08 Jun '04

Silly me, I just did a rawhide update on my system. Now "su" fails, and /var/log/messages shows: Jun 7 13:55:13 bike su: PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/$ISA/pam_selinux.so) Jun 7 13:55:13 bike su: PAM [dlerror: /lib/security/../../lib64/security/pam_selinux.so: undefined symbol: is_selinux_mls_enabled] Jun 7 13:55:13 bike su: PAM adding faulty module: /lib/security/$ISA/pam_selinux.so I do believe I'll go tweak my PAM config before I lose control of the system entirely. Anybody see anything that I might have done obviously wrong, or is this just a bug? Thanks, jon Jonathan Corbet Executive editor, LWN.net corbet(a)lwn.net

by Mike Lurk 08 Jun '04

I noticed today (on Arjan's site) that there is no kernel-source but there is kernel-sourcecode-2.6.6-1.403. Will that replace the kernel-source. Mike

Re: Can't boot any kernel >394 after fresh install of FC2T3
by LDM 08 Jun '04

08 Jun '04

My apologies to Phil for the reference to FC2T3. I guess I had it on my mind. It is, in fact, FC2. Thanks, also, for the advice on investigating the cause of the failure to boot the newer kernels. I did another fresh install today on another spare set of ext3 partitions and following is the procedure and result. Performed a fresh install from cdrom. Ran 'yum -y update' which updated about 4 of the latest packages for FC2. Then changed yum to update from the develoment tree and ran, again, 'yum -y update'. This time it updated many packages and installed the newest kernel 2.6.6-1.422.i686. Then rebooted, edited grub to remove the rhgb from the kernel line, and let the boot continue. At the USB controller line is where it went south. The below is the first glitch. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Initializing USB controller (ehci-hcd) Disabling IRQ 11 Initializing USB controller (ohci-hcd): FATAL could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.6-1.422/kernel/drivers/usb/host/ohci-hcd.ko': Input/output error checking root filesystem execvp: Input/output error *** An error occurred during the filesystem check. *** Dropping you to a shell; the system will reboot *** when you leave the shell. /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: line 324: /sbin/sulogin INIT: cannot execute "/sbin/mingetty" ##### These two lines printed INIT: cannot execute "/etc/X11/prefdm" ##### many times. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Then came the respawning through all the runlevels. Many, many lines. This is repeatable each time I follow the same procedure outlined above. Thanks again for the help. -- Larry Miller

Can't boot any kernel >394 after fresh install of FC2T3
by LDM 08 Jun '04

08 Jun '04

I have been searching the list and can not resolve the issue of not being able to boot any kernel greater than 2.6.6-1.394. The PC3 box and the Athlon box both will get to the progress bar screen and after a minute or so will go black and lockup. Today I did a fresh install of FC2T3 from cdrom, then yum updated to the latest packages including kernel-2.6.6-1.422. Same thing. I'm stumped. -- Larry Miller

About Bootsplash
by Antti Aspinen 08 Jun '04

08 Jun '04

Hello! I'd like to add Bootsplash in to Fedora Core 3 so that it replaces RHGB. Bootsplash feature is much better cause it is fuly themeable and looks much, much more brittier. And also includes same features what are in RHGB. Is that possible to work out? visit here: www.bootsplash.org and www.bootsplash.de -Antti-

Odd font problem
by Paul F. Johnson 07 Jun '04

07 Jun '04

Hi, My son's box has a clean install of vanilla FC2, but is using the dev version of Evolution. For some reason, while you can still read the emails, you can't see anything in the From/Subject/Date columns. I remember seeing this under FC1 as well. Any ideas what it is caused by and how to fix it? TTFN Paul -- "Your lives are in the hands of men no smarter than you or I, many of them incompetent boobs. I know this because I worked alongside them, gone bowling with them, watched them pass me over for promotions time and again. And I say ... This stinks!" - Homer Simpson
