gs driver for hl1250

2004-04-13 Thread Tom Cato Amundsen
Once upon a tim I built a debian packge of gs patched with a driver for
brother hl1250. Since then I have deleted that package, and yesterday I
upgrade...

Has anyone built a package including this driver? Or patches that works
with one of the source packages for gs in debian?

xfree 4.0.1 and keyboard configuration

2000-11-06 Thread Tom Cato Amundsen
(please cc: me...)


Call me stupid, but I have trouble getting the right Alt key
working the same way with xfree 4.0.1 as 3.6.6 ...

I use a norwegian keyboard, and need the right Alt (called
Alt Gr in norway) to get the square and curly braces and the
at (@) sing.

Any ideas??

autoconf, default sysconfdir value

2000-07-22 Thread Tom Cato Amundsen
Is there a simple way to do AC_PREFIX_DEFAULT, but with SYSCONFDIR
instead?

I want a configure script to check gnome-config --sysconfdir by default
but let the user override this.

Yes, my shell programming skills sucks.

 Hi,

 I am trying to install slink on my computer, which i successfully did.
 This is my first debian install.

 I have two questions.

 My Matrox 400 card is not supported with the version of Xfree that comes
 with Slink.

 I tried installing my Accelerated X but i keep getting the error mesage
 cannot load libterm.cap.so.2.

 What library do i have to install.

libterm.cap.so.2 ;-) I remember reading somewhere a good explanation why not use
Accelerated X on debian, I don't remember what is was.



 Can i easily upgrade to a newer version of Xfree?


If you computer is online, add the following to /etc/apt/sources.list:
   deb http://www.debian.org/~vincent/ xfree-update main
then you can use apt-get to install the new packages. I guess you also want to 
get a
recent version of gnome, then add:
   deb http://www.debian.org/~vincent/ slink-update main
to /etc/apt/sources.list.


 If so how?

 Thanks
 Rick

 I tried installing Corel Linux already and it trashed my partition table
 and also does not give an option of where to install lilo and automaticlly
 installs in the MBR so now i am trying just debian.

 Thanks
 Rick

 Hello again from the kernel virgin man;


 I was wondering what the hell to install from all of this. I suppose
 that the docs would be the most important thing for me. But, do I need
 all of these ?

 kernel-doc-2.1.125 2.1.125-1   (675.6k)
   Linux kernel specific documentation.

This are old development version, you don't want to use this. If you want to use
development version of the kernel, use version 2.3.x.

I think what you really want is a stable 2.2.13. If you can't find it at
debians site try http://www.kernel.org



 kernel-source-2.1.125 2.1.125-1   (12044.4k)
   Linux kernel source.

 kernel-source-2.2.1 2.2.1-1   (12915.9k)
   Linux kernel source.


 kernel-package 6.05   (120.2k)
   Debian Linux kernel package build scripts.

 In any case I have downloaded them. My goal is to install kernel
 2.1.125-1, thats all :)

 Thanks

setting up isdn. sorry but redhat is easier

1999-11-29 Thread Tom Cato Amundsen
I got my isdn line a few days ago, and using the isdn4net package in
addition to isdn4linux is was quite ease to get redhat 6.1 online. But
debian was my first distribution and I really would like to use it for
my day to day use.

Setting up debian is unfortunately not that easy. From isdn4net web
pages it seems like it is only tested on Redhat. I will contact the
developers to check.

Searching  debian-user did not help me much, so either I am asking the
wrong forum, or it works for most people. I'll return with other
questions, but for a start:
* has anyone had sucess with isdn4net on debian, or is anyone porting
it, or writing an easier frontent do the stuff in isdnutils?
* is isdnutils the only deb-package needed (any my_brain*10)?
* are there any problems using 2.2.12 kernel with slink isdnutils

The isdn line I'm trying to use is in Norway.


Re: Deb package for Julian date?

 Hi. Anyone know if there is a deb package (I'm using Slink still with
 2.0.36 kernel) for converting ordinary dates into Julian dates (as used
 in Astronomy)? Or if no debs then any GNU/Linux package which I could

If you program python, there is a Date class in the example files that probably 
can
help you.
