RE: Hebrew keymap in Gentoo

Printing Hebrew
Hi folks, Now that I can type in Hebrew, I have run into another problem--I can't print Hebrew. Blank spaces appear where the Hebrew characters should be. I think this is a problem with Ghostscript fonts (KWord prints to my HP printer (hpijs driver) via GS), but I don't know where GS looks for fonts, or what I need to add. I know the problem is not the printer (or driver) because when I print to a PDF, the PDF has exactly the same problem. Any ideas?

I use a dynamic DNS configuration which authorizes updates by IP

Re: Compiling Qt 3.1 with Xft support under RedHat 8.0?
Have a look at redhat's qt source RPM. I really would be hesitant about this.. QT in RH 8.0 is a very different QT then other distributions have, and it includes: * GCC 3.2 patches * XFT1 XFT-2 patches * Some patches from QT-3.1 and some from 3.0.5 version All in all - it's a mish mash version of QT, which NO one supports it. You file a bug against it to trolltech, and it will be automatically kicked out. You file a bug in RH's bugzilla - and probably no one will answer... I would suggest to wait few more weeks (2 more) for the official KDE 3.1 release (today the RC2 came out). I'm pretty sure there will be RPMS for it for RedHat 7.3 and 8.0.

Be careful with RH 8. 0 if you plan to use it on some heavy workload with some scripts... Thanks, Hetz -- Forwarded Message -- Subject: Where'd the cpu cycles go ? Date: Monday 04 November 2002 13:30 From: Greg Hosler [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, I just came across a real performance bog in Red Hat 8.0 I noticed one of my sysadmin scripts going painfully slow, and running the cpu at 100%. upon some investigation, I noticed that a certain grep statement was choking the cpu. I've generated a shell script which duplicates that particular performance bog-down, but I can't pinpoint where the cpu's being hogged. The script generates a file (a.out) a little over a meg big, some 9 lines, and then times a grep thru the file. running this same script on Red Hat 7.3, I see times of (on average) .07 seconds to run the grep. On Red Hat 8.0, the same grep takes over 6 and a half minutes (no joke!). (i.e. a 4000 times difference, from under a tenth of a second, to almost 400 seconds) My first thought was what happened to grep, so I mounted my RH7.3 / partition on /mnt/root, and ran /mnt/root/bin/grep, and it also took the long path, so it's not grep. I ran a quick query in bugzilla (querying description and/or Summary for performance, and didn't see anything related. Can anyone reproduce (or void) my results ? -Greg +-+ You can release software that's good, software that's inexpensive, or software that's available on time.

Re: Dynamic DNS
You seem to misunderstood me.
I configured a fully working system twice now, one with Suse and one with
Debian and it works perfectly. The problem is with RedHat 7.3.
DHCP failes to update Bind. Other then that both work ok. (ie I get leases
and resolving)
So, I ask again, any ideas about the unauthorized messages ?

gnomecal to KOrginizer
Hi, Probably this is should not be to hard to accomplish, but I failed doing so and couldn't find a solution. I've been using gnomecal (version 1.2.0) for a while, and I now want to move to KOrganizer (version 3.0.2). Both applications use vCalender to save the data, but different formats (gnomcal is older format). I've tried to save the file from gnomecal and then read it in KOrganizer, but it didn't work. Is there a way to move the data from gnomecal to KOrganizer? Or a tool that knows the read the older vCalender format and write the newer format? Thanks.
