what can go wrong when transfering image
Hi All I wonder lets say im configure a good server then I create an image of the HD and copy it to a newmachine, what will be the affect ? to be more accurate: What will be the side affects when transferring P4 to another P4 but with different chipset memory etc ... ? What will be the side affects when transferring P4 to Athlon machine ? The affect will be the same with all distribution or I might find that mandrake is much portable then gentoo ? Cheers

Problem with process accounting
I've noticed in `ps` output that one particular process is shown only until its last slash, i.e. instead of /opt/BOS/test.out its /opt/BOS I've checked in its /proc/xxx directory and in cmdline there is a '\0' in place of last slash !! I'm using 2.4.18 kernel and latest BusyBox. Who is responsible for updating appropriate /proc directory when a process starts ?

Hi guys, I've been off the list for almost 3 weeks, :-) I'm looking to BUY a copy of SuSE 8.1, but would prefer to buy it locally. Anyone know of an Israeli source?

I'm not sure whether the last few problems I'm having have to do with CrossOver Office, Red Hat 8.0, or the version of Word I'm using. I'm installing Microsoft Office 2000 on Red Hat 8.0. Mine comes with a standard (English-language) CD, plus a second CD labeled Hebrew Language Pack. - Setting LANG=he_IL was a really important step. Thanks, Hetz, for suggesting it! - Installing in my own home directory, and not as root, was also crucial. Thanks, Daniel, for pointing that out! - I installed CrossOver Office with $ export LANG=he_IL $ sh install-crossover-office-1.3.1.sh I accepted all of the defaults. I exited. - I then took Daniel's advice and installed Office separately, setting LANG locally just to be sure: $ LANG=he_IL ~/cxoffice/bin/officesetup Once again, I accepted all of the defaults. - Now I started up Word, setting LANG locally again just to be sure: $ LANG=he_IL ~/cxoffice/bin/winword The good news is that Word has the Hebrew/English paragraph buttons, and I can type in Hebrew without any trouble at all. The bad news is that typing in English works in a very funny way. If I try to type This is a sentence then I get a space between T and his. Furthermore, when I type in English, the cursor remains just after the capital letter that I typed (in this case, the T), rather than showing me where the next character will be inserted. In other words, my experience so far indicates that CrossOver Office works great in Hebrew (if installed with LANG=he_IL) and great in English (if installed with LANG=en_US), but not so great if you want both languages. Do you have any further suggestions? Am I missing something? You must install the second CD as I indicated, to make the think work right. From that point you can type, ~/cxoffice/bin/msword or whatever without the LANG thing.

If you test the installation by running LANG=he_IL ~/cxoffice/binmsword, MS Word will come up in Hebrew, with the menus on the wrong side and some of the dialogues in gibberish. Gibberish - I'm interested in this one. Does the Gibberish look like latin accented characters, or like squares? If the later, this falls under bug #1157 (bugs.winehq.org). The letters are Latin accented, NO squares. Menus in the wrong side - added bug #1158. Thanks. All of you - if you are having BiDi related problems with Wine, please create bugs in the Bugzilla system, and mark them as blocking bug #609 (BiDi implementation). I'll look into it. Never done it before. Also, please vote on the bugs, so I can prioritize my work. 6. When it's all over, rerun ~/cxoffice/bin/msword. It works perfectly, with English dialogues, but with Hebrew or English input as you wish. You will need to use the little nationality flag icon to switch between Hebrew and English keyboard input. (Alt Shift does not work.) This is not supposed to work with Alt-Shift. Use whatever technique you use with X to switch keyboard layouts (ctrl-alt-k in KDE). Word is supposed to pick up on the change (it sometimes takes a little while, as one of the notification messages is not implemented yet). 8. Uninstall Star Office or Oppen Office or whatever! What happened to the freedom of choice? Nothing. Open Office (as supplied by SuSE crashes when you try to load a doc file. Someone on the list mentioned that he solved the problem by d/l'ing and rebuilding. No thank you! Not on a 56K modem that barely runs at half the speed. That by the way, is why I use a good quality commercial distro which allows a half annual update with just about *** everything *** on the DVD. The cost in time and $ of downloading is prohibitive. Star Office 5.2 is great as far as it goes (I used it for over a year), but it does not support Hebrew in any obvious way and it's treatment of simple things like doc file tables is atrocious. Neither of these two items is ready for prime time if you have to exchange multilingual docs with Win users.

Kword not ready for [Hebrew] prime time yet
I just tried to see if kword could take over from lyx as my primary wordprocessor for Hebrew. My output needs are: 1* can produce ps 2* ps has embedded fonts 3* can produce html 4* html is standard compliant 5* can produce pdf 6* pdf that embeds fonts 7* can utilize utf-8 8* has good export facilities (text, tex, rtf, ...) Obviously all the above must be met for Hebrew. Kword does 1, 5 and 7, I don't know about 6, but I had no success with2, and 4 needs some fixing, and I have a problem with the implementation 3 and 8. LyX does 1, 2, 3 (using my latex2html patches and those I worked on with Ross Moore; some are already in cvs, although it is still a bit broken, and it should hopefully work properly soon enough), 4 (again, using the same patches), 5, 6 and 8. My problems with Kword are: * html and text export does not preserve footnotes * when exporting to tex there is no way to specify an encoding other than latin1 or utf-8 * Despite having selected in the kde language and country dialog Israel as the country (I assume that this should set the locale to Israel's), and despite embed fonts having been selected in qtconfig, Kword still won't do that. I must note that other applications, such as konqueror, have done a beautiful job printing Hebrew since kde 2.x * html does not contain dir=rtl tags, an issue when a paragraph starts with certain sequences, such as 1., which should be displayed as .1, for rudimentary numbered lists, also, otherwise bullets are on the wrong side of the page * the displaying of the frames is still buggy, especially with Hebrew footnotes * when indenting Hebrew text, the text block does not become narrower, but simply shifts to the left, such that some of the text becomes invisible Lyx, OTOH, doesn't do utf-8, so I am setting my eyes on the soon to be mainstreamed bidi implementation of openoffice... (any news on that front?) Should I forward this to some kde developer? (Lars ... what's his email?)

Quoting Arie Folger [EMAIL PROTECTED]: * html does not contain dir=rtl tags, an issue when a paragraph starts with certain sequences, such as 1., which should be displayed as .1, for rudimentary numbered lists, also, otherwise bullets are on the wrong side of the page I'm surprised you expect this, since KWord doesn't actually have paragraph direction. There is no facility for it. It simply guesses the direction from the first character in the paragraph. This is a very bad behavior for a word processor which claims to be BiDi. I've been mightily disapponted with KWord. Especially since it managed to crash my X server mightily when I clicked on the font menu. I hate WYSIWYG font menus. I hate them more when they are slow and crash X. (Disclaimer: still using Mandrake 8.2 here - if there were any X updates, I haven't checked them (lack of free time)) Anyways, standard-compliant HTML should NOT use DIR=RTL tags. This is a stylesheet issue. It should have a CLASS=rightToLeft tag, or something like that, and have a stylesheet containing direction: rtl for that class.

I usually use the same stylesheet for both Hebrew and English, with several

}
BODY[dir=rtl] {
background: url(bg-120-rtl.GIF) repeat-y right;

example:
.funkymenu {

margin-left: -135px;
margin-right: 4px;
...
}
BODY[dir=rtl] .funkymenu {

RE: Kword not ready for [Hebrew] prime time yet
It does #2 and #5 as well. Just enabling font embedding is not enough--you have to make the Hebrew fonts available to GhostScript. Here is the relevant stuff from one of my previous posts: 1. Look at the Fonts-HOWTO. Note that the instructions in the Fonts-HOWTO (specifically,this page-- http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Font-HOWTO/x346.html) are for an outdated version of ttf2pt1. The line in the Perl script that reads: open ( R, sh -c \ttf2pt1 -A $fontname - 2/dev/null\ | ); Should be changed to: open ( R, sh -c \ttf2pt1 -GAf $fontname - \ | ); If it doesn't work, make sure that you have ttf2pt1. 2. In my installation (gs 7.05.5 on Gentoo 1.2), the GhostScript Fontmap file is not in the GhostScript search path. (The last few lines of output from gs -h tell you what the search path is.) I moved Fontmap to /usr/share/ghostscript/fonts (which IS in the search path). Now when I do gs prfont.ps, and then /ArialMT DoFont (at the GS prompt), it shows me the contents of arial.ttf. So far, so good. 3. Enable font embedding in the KWord print dialog (actually, you have to click the Options button and enable it in the Options dialog).
