OOo Writer for Flyers!?
Hey Folks, I did some work for a client last night. It was something I could have shot out, in Microsoft Word, within a matter of minutes. I opened OOo Writer and it took me a couple hours to come up with a mediocre product. I was a little embarrased by it. What I tried to do was create a flyer. I wish I had the PDF I created, I'll have to send it when I get home. Now that I've fluffed the email a bit. My question is, am I using the wrong application? In OOo Writer, I didn't have any templates at my disposal so all the elements I take for granted, I had to insert myself. It was a bit pain staking. I seriously felt as if I was using Office 95 or something like that. Thanks for your input. -- Marc Ferguson www.fergytech.com www.digitalalias.net When life gives me lemons...

Re: Detecting how Apps are called.
Hi Jim, I hope I do understand your question. The SD card usually loads (mounts) in the /media folder. The actualy device file is in /dev somewhere. As for the execution of files. I'm not familiar with any switches to show where it's running from. For the most part the file you're looking for is in /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, typically any bin directory. Not all packages are equal though. You might have some that will run directly out of their directory (ex: /usr/opt/songbirf/songbird). One way you can narrow it down is to run the locate command. $ locate -i songbird It will display all the possible instances of the word songbird.

MP3s Seem to Only Stream?
Hey Folks, I find something very odd about how my MP3 files, especially the larger ones (podcasts) are played using Songbird, Banshee, Movie Player, etc. I can't seem to do anything besides play the file. I try to pause and it just stops or if I want to rewind or forward... I can't. It's treating my local MP3 files as streaming content? The smaller MP3 files, like 5min songs play just fine, but anything over 30min is handled a different way. Is this common or is there a setting I need to change?

How to Mount a DVD-ROM Drive?
Hi All, I hope my issue is a small one. I'm running Fedora 10, kernel 2.6.27.21-170.2.56.fc10.x86_64. I have an internal DVD burner drive, but it's very inconsistent with mounting. Some times I have to reboot the machine or try to eject and reinsert the CD/DVD multiple times before it recognizes it. Is there a way that I can mount my DVD burner, in the same fashion that I've done my other two hard drive partitions? I've made entries in /etc/fstab and added /dev/sbd{1,2}, so my partitions mount every time I boot. What is the device path to the DVD burner or how can I find that out?

Something is Fishy About My Network
Hi, I'm running Fedora 10 x86_64 and I really think something is odd about my ability to network and I think it's all pointing to DNS. First, I've been running Linux (full time) for almost a year, but I am still a newb. There are still some Windows concepts that I haven't been able to shake yet, so please be very simple yet thorough with your replies (I'd appreciate it). So here's the meat of my cry-for-help caserole. - I'm having a problem pinging my hostname. I'll ping it and 127.0.0.1 is the resulting IP. - I see that my router has given my computer an IP address, but it doesn't have the hostname in its table. - I can't ping, by host name, my computer from any other computer on the home network. So because of those issues, I can't properly network my linux box with other computers in my home network. I just found out (from a friend) that I had an internal firewall turned on. I didn't even realize that Fedora shipped with a firewall. From my Windows-days, I've learned that software firewall causes too many headaches. So; I disabled the firewall I discovered in Fedora. Thanks for any feedback. *system-config-network 1.5.95* I'm not all that handy with command-line network configuring yet so I'm using the GUI program system-config-network. In my DNS tab here are my settings: - hostname: unicron.cybertron - primary dns: 192.168.1.1 (router) - secondary dns: - tertiary dns: - dns search path: unicron -- Marc F. www.fergytech.com Registered Linux User: #410978 When life gives me lemons...

Firefox Running Slow in Linux
Hi, I know I'll probably get hazed by this already saturated question, but I haven't found any solid answers to my issue from the archives. I'm running Fedora 10 x86_64 and loving the adventure of running an 64 bit system. I'm also running Firefox 3.0.x (x86_64), but I've noticed that it's not very smooth compared to it running on a Windows machine and I'm little confused why. It's more the scroll bar than anything else. It's something small, but it's ruining the surfing experience and I'm a little embarrassed to let other people use it on my desktop. I don't want to give Linux a bad name and these folks are primarily Windows/MAC users. So; their experience with using Firefox on my system is a tainted one. I've tried running Swiftfox, but I haven't gotten it to load (that's another issue) so I'm kind of stuck with Firefox. -- Marc F. www.fergytech.com Registered Linux User: #410978 When life gives me lemons...

Anyone Installed Banshee 1.0 on Fedora 8?
Hi, Has anyone successfully installed the latest version of Banshee on their Fedora 8? My repository has a very low version and I've had problems trying to install via source. Two words, dependency HELL! I don't know what to do at this point... I might need to upgrade to F9. Thanks for any suggestions.

The funny thing is everything works except for making the actual connection to a wireless network though. You have a Wavelan chipset, which should work using the Orinoco driver (already detected and loaded by the kernel). Now try 'iwlist scan' (again, as root). If the card works physically you should see a list of nearby access points. That means there is a strong chance of being able to get it to work, you just have to configure it correctly :-) Also, make sure the radio is physically turned on!

My wireless device, according to Network Configuration is eth0. I find that weird; in prior distros wireless devices where labeled wlan0, wlan1, etc. The scan did pick up something for wifi0 and eth0. Does that mean that they are conflicting in some way?
