Opera 10.60 Linux New Version Ivrit Problems

2010-07-07 Thread mbrace7forums

I was wondering if anyone else had similar problems with the new version. I 
might not have made it that clear what the problem is.


Here goes a second go:



I find that lists of Subject and who from in emails do not show in Hebrew in 
the new edition. The moment I returned to the older 10.10 Opera Version 
everything appeared as it should in dual languages.


I noticed that in the International fonts (Tools Options) missing are the many 
font options in Opera 10.10. It appears that the 10.60 needs some sort of tweek 
to get it displaying Hebrew email subject listings as it should.

I found that Word 7 on 32bit Mandriva 2010 through wine - playonlinux 
installation only gives limited Hebrew not all the options are available. Sorry 
can't say which options are and are not. 
I tried an old programme Davka 3 which believe it or not worked fine. It saves 
files as .rtf which can be opened by many word processors. It hasn't got all 
the hoots and whistles as MS Word but neither has Open Office Writer 3.2.

 I beg to differ on this tiny point - installing Office (2007?) on

 How did you do that?

 Last time I checked wine didn't like it very much, not to mention the
 problems with using both Hebrew and English in the same document.

 Sorry can't remember exactly. I'm not a WINE expert but just followed
 the usual installation instructions.


 And Hebrew works fine?

Sorry haven't tested with Hebrew. If you have a genuine .docx Hebrew
document to send me I'll try to open it next time I'm at work (sick
today).

GUI for WiFi connection

2010-07-07 Thread Elazar Leibovich
I'm using Ubuntu, and currently my options for connecting to wireless access
points are very limited.
I can use the ubuntu builtin wireless app, but it's very limited. You can't
force a refresh of the wireless spots. You can set a default network - but
you can't prioritize which network will it try first.
I can OTOH use the iw* tool suite, but it's CLI is very inconvenient. I must
do a iwlist eth1 scan (eth1, huh? Why can't I omit the web interface and
have it use the only wireless interface I have), look for an access point
SSID, copy it to the clipboard and then go iwconfig eth1 essid
paste_ssid_here. Not as snappy as command line can be.

The related GUI alternative applications I found so far (gtkwifi and
gwirelessapplet) are not really maintained anymore.

How do you connect to wireless Access Points in Linux? Any better way than
what I mentioned?

I use wicd (http://wicd.sourceforge.net) on Debian. It works reasonably well 
for wireless access. In addition, I use some command line trickery to connect 
to WiFi and wired networks simultaneously, since wicd doesn't support complex 
setups very well.

When I have time I want to check connman (http://www.connman.net).

Definitely wicd. Great app.

Thanks, Baruch, this looks interesting but I don't think that it is a
full-featured replacement for wicd. it is meant for embedded devices.

Nothing fancy. I need WiFi for unrestricted outside access, and wired for 
internal servers access. So I just let wicd connect to the default WiFi AP, 
and then do:

# udhcpc -q -s /usr/local/bin/udhcpc.script -i eth0

With udhcpc.script being (lightly edited):

#!/bin/sh

if [ $1 != bound ]; then
exit 0
fi

ifconfig $interface $ip netmask $subnet

# Access the mail server via the wired network when in example.net, since the 
# WiFi connection there is unstable
if [ $domain = example.net ]; then
for i in $router; do
ip route add a.b.c.d via $i dev eth0
done
fi

  When I have time I want to check connman (http://www.connman.net).
 Thanks, Baruch, this looks interesting but I don't think that it is a
 full-featured replacement for wicd. it is meant for embedded devices.

I just want a tool to get the job done, i.e. configure the network 
interface(s), manage the routing table, and put something sensible in 
/etc/resolv.conf, or even better, manage the DNS itself. I don't want to 
fiddle with various iw* commands, and complicated routing rules, every time I 
move from one location to another.  If connman can do this, I'll use it.
