Hola Creo que son la misma empresa. kemsirve es el nombre de uno servidores que ofrecen: El concepto Kemsirve Kemsirve es un servidor más que suficiente para la mayor parte de las necesidades de un uso particular en internet.

Error con openoffice en debian sid.
Buenas noches lister@s. Uso apache openoffice y recientemente actualice a la versión 3.4, pero tenía ese problema con la versión anterior. Acá esta una imagen que muestra el problema: http://i49.tinypic.com/2mqntp5.jpg En la imagen se muestran un serie de opciones para seleccionar, pero como pueden ver, solamente se marca la última (Empezar a partir de un documento inicial guardado recientemente), cuando deberían mostrarse todas. No es cuestión del gestor de ventanas, ya que me pasa con openbox y con wmaker, ni tampoco cuestión de usuarios, por que con otro usuario aparece la misma situación. Utilizo la siguiente tarjeta gráfica: 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV505 [Radeon X1550 Series] Ya que en mi lap (con una tarjeta intel) no tengo ese problema. He buscado en internet, pero no he encontrado pistas, así que esa es la razón del mensaje. No podré ver esta computadora hasta el lunes, así que cualquier prueba esperará hasta ese día.

Re: Printers using free software only
Le jeudi 26 juillet 2012 à 23:14 +0100, Brian a écrit : I'll take the 'whatever'. lp -d print_queue -o raw test.ps goes to the printer (the machine) without any filtering and gives a nice printout if the machine understands PostScript. lp -d print_queue -o raw test.pdf also does the same but the printout will not please you unless the machine has a PDF interpreter. Well, on my system it prints fine. I'm glad to know my PS printer can understand PDF as well (and raw ascii text too BTW) :) Now just remove the -o raw and you can print whatever you want … This was my point: you use lp which is provided by a package which does all the filtering work for you (except if you explicitly tell it not to do). Should you say you had to pipe your file directly to the printer, the choice of the output format could become a serious issue for you. But you have filters.

One only have to read the full specification manual of both to start guessing why (hint: one of them has around 200 less pages) :-) (note that I don't want my printer to read but interpret the document I am sending it exactly as is and PS complexity is precisely for doing so) Roger Leigh gave a good explanation of the role played by PDF in the CUPS printing process on Debian. You snipped most of it, including this: A native PDF workflow is far, far better and vastly more flexible than a native PostScript workflow. Time will prove the role of PDF in the printing chain process. By now, I only can say that my printers were manufactured to speak PS and not PDF, so any additional convertion will only waste time to get the job done and printer resources. To understand its importance you need a better reference than the one given to a page on the cups website a few posts back. For example, there is: http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/pdfasstandardprintjobformat Let's recap to have a better understanding: *** (...) This format has many important advantages, especially PDF is the common platform-independent web format for printable documents Portable Easy post-processing (N-up, booklets, scaling, ...) Easy Color management support Easy High color depth support ( 8bit/channel) Easy Transparency support Smaller files Linux workflow gets closer to Mac OS X *** Look, I was not very deviated in my thought... There are four easies listed as advantadges. Perfect, but I prefer accurateness over easiness for the output jobs, thanks :-) In addition.. do we really want to get closer to MacOS X? If so, why? Just becasue CUPS is MacOS tool? The far we are from anything that smells to Apple the better for the linux users ;-) To illustrate the difference between printing in the olden days and now we'll take someone who has set up a print queue to send a job to a printer as PostScript. A text file is sent to CUPS, which filters it. On Lenny: text -- texttops -- pstops printer On Squeeze: text -- texttopdf -- pdftopdf -- pdftops printer Note that the printer still gets PostScript (which should make you happy) and the advantages of the PDF workflow which have been described occur at the pdftopdf filtering stage. How can be that adding an extra step (which increases time and resources) is something good? And good for who (developers, printers or users)? Aside note: I always have obtained better results when converting files (mostly with image/binary content) to PostScript than PDF.

I have an early netbook that will only read 1gb or 2gb SD cards, a more recent netbook that reads SDHC 8gb cards perfectly. However, if I use a converter, I can read write to my 8gb cards. So, if you want to use it, use a SD to USB stick type converter, that way it works just like plugging in a pendrive (I have no idea if any work with SDXC cards.) Seems like a good possibility. Lina, how old is the computer with the built-in slot? Also, if you run lspci -v or lsusb on the command line, can you find the SD controller? Knowing what it is, we could probably figure out if it supports SDHC. Alternatively it could be that it has simply failed. Do you have other cards you could test in it?

Well, on my system it prints fine. I'm glad to know my PS printer can understand PDF as well (and raw ascii text too BTW) :) Interesting, I might investige getting one. Mine prints page after page of raw, stepped PDF code. Now just remove the -o raw and you can print whatever you want … This was my point: you use lp which is provided by a package which does all the filtering work for you (except if you explicitly tell it not to do). I understood this from the start but cannot see how it in any way alters what I originally said. Should you say you had to pipe your file directly to the printer, the choice of the output format could become a serious issue for you. But you have filters. Then I don't understand why you care about the output format of your applications. It is an undisputed fact that an application such as Iceweasel always feeds PDF to CUPS when printing, so with your printer the filtering chain is PDF -- pdftopdf Printer Which is rather nice. Some people would see the lack of involvement of GhostScript as a plus. If Iceweasel had PostScript as its output there would in most cases be an extra pstopdf conversion. One's attitude towards caring about such things would depend on how having a standard print job format as PDF is viewed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: logrotate: file size changed while zipping

It is strange for me, because i have the tor daemon disabled and i use it only sometime and from my user session (from vidalia). It needs more inspection now, but when will be sure, that this is not by my mistake, i will fill the bugreport. Now there are two files: ls -l /var/log/tor/ celkom 4,0K -rw-r- 1 debian-tor adm0 júl 7 10:24 log -rw-r--r-- 1 debian-tor adm 3,5K júl 6 19:37 log.1 The old one (log.1) is from my fist attempts, and all dates in it are dated at Jul 06. By my opinion, there can be problem with combination the notifempty and delaycompress. Another possible source can be the create 0640 debian-tor adm option and the older file with the 644 permissions (not changed by me), but i don't know if this can be problem. I will do more checks, but any help is welcome :-) Camaleón, thanks for help -- Slavko http://slavino.sk signature.asc Description: PGP signature

You snipped most of it, including this: A native PDF workflow is far, far better and vastly more flexible than a native PostScript workflow. Time will prove the role of PDF in the printing chain process. By now, I only can say that my printers were manufactured to speak PS and not PDF, They *are* given PostScript. No problem there. so any additional convertion will only waste time to get the job done and printer resources. If you only ever send PostScript to CUPS and have a particular type of PPD file there will be no extra conversions. The chain would be: PostScript -- pstops Printer Isn't CUPS wonderful? Surely there are no grounds for complaint here? However, you do lose any advantages pdftopdf might have provided. Send anything other than PostScript (apart from PDF) and there has to be a couple of conversions, but the same is true for the defunct PostScript workflow. So its swings and roundabouts, except the PDF swings are better and much more flexible. To understand its importance you need a better reference than the one given to a page on the cups website a few posts back. For example, there is: http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/pdfasstandardprintjobformat Let's recap to have a better understanding: *** (...) This format has many important advantages, especially PDF is the common platform-independent web format for printable documents Portable Easy post-processing (N-up, booklets, scaling, ...) Easy Color management support Easy High color depth support ( 8bit/channel) Easy Transparency support Smaller files Linux workflow gets closer to Mac OS X *** Look, I was not very deviated in my thought... There are four easies listed as advantadges. Perfect, but I prefer accurateness over easiness for the output jobs, thanks :-) Being easily understood does not diminish their advantages. As for the PostScript workflow being more accurate than the PDF workflow I do not know. You would have to substantiate that. In addition.. do we really want to get closer to MacOS X? If so, why? Just becasue CUPS is MacOS tool? The far we are from anything that smells to Apple the better for the linux users ;-) I don't do OS wars but will point out that printing is a cross-platform activity. To illustrate the difference between printing in the olden days and now we'll take someone who has set up a print queue to send a job to a printer as PostScript. A text file is sent to CUPS, which filters it. On Lenny: text -- texttops -- pstops printer On Squeeze: text -- texttopdf -- pdftopdf -- pdftops printer Note that the printer still gets PostScript (which should make you happy) and the advantages of the PDF workflow which have been described occur at the pdftopdf filtering stage. How can be that adding an extra step (which increases time and resources) is something good? And good for who (developers, printers or users)? Its a balance. Pros and cons. With a PDF printer: On Lenny: PDF -- pdftops -- pstops -- pstopdf Printer On Squeeze: PDF -- pdftopdf Printer I don't think I would want to criticise the PostScript centred workflow solely on this. The heart of the matter could be seen as pdftopdf versus pstops. The advantages pdftopdf have been adequately covered - an earlier mail and points 2 to 5 above.

It is strange for me, because i have the tor daemon disabled and i use it only sometime and from my user session (from vidalia). Tor daemon can be disabled but still the logrotate routine is being executed on a daily basis. But now you say, that makes the error message ever weirder because the only thing I can see making gzip outputing file size changed while zipping is that there are files opened (in use) but if Tor is stopped, nothing is logged and there should be no changes at the log file that is going to be compressed :-? It needs more inspection now, but when will be sure, that this is not by my mistake, i will fill the bugreport. Now there are two files: ls -l /var/log/tor/ celkom 4,0K -rw-r- 1 debian-tor adm0 júl 7 10:24 log -rw-r--r-- 1 debian-tor adm 3,5K júl 6 19:37 log.1 The old one (log.1) is from my fist attempts, and all dates in it are dated at Jul 06. By my opinion, there can be problem with combination the notifempty and delaycompress. Another possible source can be the create 0640 debian-tor adm option and the older file with the 644 permissions (not changed by me), but i don't know if this can be problem. I will do more checks, but any help is welcome :-) Before going with a bug report, ensure you are using the original logrotate routine for tor. Camaleón, thanks for help You're welcome.

I would like to see, now more than ever, less dependency on CUPS (by dependency I mean here that it would be nice to have different alternatives as powerful as CUPS). Moving to a PDF workflow was a considered decision based on technical considerations. A good deal of the CUPS printing system is now managed directly by Debian/Ubuntu and not by upstream.

gtk-color-scheme for gtk3 themes not being applied?
Hi. I'm trying to set the selected items background color for gtk3 themes, but it doesn't seem to work. I put the following in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini, but it doesn't make any difference: gtk-color-scheme = selected_bg_color:#44;selected_fg_color:#00 I also tried with gsettings and dconf-editor to change org.gnome.desktop.interface, but still nothing: gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-color-scheme 'selected_bg_color:#44' No matter what theme I select in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini (Adwaita, Clearlooks-Phenix), the gtk-color-scheme doesn't seem to get applied. How does one configure a theme's color settings for gtk3? :S Using Debian testing/wheezy, upgraded to latest packages.

Re: debian wheezy netinst questions
Okay, I forgot to mention that archlinux has no trouble installing on that same sata controler and same baracooda drive. I had been told earlier today that Seagate did ship some problem baracooda drives out but wasn't told what the problem was with them. I'll see if I can get a replacement drive since this one has some warranty left.

Since automatic recognition fails, which if any driver is installed that I can select and get the drive partitioned and formatted and finish a debian installation? It seems very unusual that such a popular drive such as the Seagate Baracuda series would be a problem. I have several of those on my systems without trouble. More than likely if there is a problem it is in the SATA device controller on your motherboard. I would remove and reconnect all of the disk connections and verify that they are okay. A bad SATA cable connector has been the source of problems more than once on this mailing list. If your motherboard has multiple SATA controllers or connectors then I would try a different one. I would boot a live disk and then run 'lspci' and look to see what SATA controller is being used and then search for issues concerning it. Also during a live cd boot you should be able to query the drive and prove that it is working. Or not working. Because it is possible that you are simply suffering from a hardware problem and not a software problem.

No, both can without any problem. Windows NT couldn't deal with dotted domain names, but everything since then can. AD is based on LDAP, and can use multiple dc=... components in the domain name. AD has been around since Windows 2000, so XP was aware of it from the beginning, and XP Pro could be an AD domain client. I suspect that local was not the best name that could have been chosen... (but I'm not a network admin, much less an AD admin, so what do I know?). It's recommended by Microsoft for domains which do not handle their own public DNS (i.e. just about all businesses), because if you use the public email domain (or any valid domain name) internally it means you jump through extra DNS hoops to reach external resources on the same domain. Also, email domains are often changed, and once an AD domain name (or domain controller hostname) is set, it is forever in stone. There are third-party tools that can allegedly change either after installation, but they are not recommended for use on a server running Exchange, so nobody has much faith in them. It is, after all, only a global search-and-replace on an LDAP directory (and registry..), but on a truly epic scale, and nobody trusts that nothing will come unglued. -- Joe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
