Acrobat yes (although I found it hard to work with). Acrobat reader AFAIK, no.



You can annotate PDF files in free *Acrobat Reader* (I am using Debian 
package, version 8.1.2) and all annotations are saved in the same PDF 
file. However, some flag in the PDF file must be enabled first to allow 
such annotations, and this can be done only in non-free *Acrobat* (not 
Acrobat Reader). I don't know about any free tools to enable PDF for 
annotations.

Re: reliable editting of any PDF file

However I see from http://www.bxlug.be/en/articles/128 that I can use
debian-marillat sources - does anybody use acroread from there for
*editting* PDFs?


Yes, I do. As I said in my previous posting, PDF file needs to be enabled 
first for annotation. In our lab we have a copy of the Windows version of 
Acrobat 7 (not Reader). Using it I can enable annotations, save the PDF 
file, and open it again on my Debian box using Acrobat Reader. Then all
annotation tools in the free Acrobat Reader are available and I can save 
the final result into the same PDF file.

Midnight Commander in Gnome Terminal

Hi,

When using MC in a text mode (console) the Ctrl-J copies the highlighted 
filename into a command line. However, this doesn't work in Gnome 
Terminal, it seems that the keys combination is captured and interpreted 
as a new line. Is it possible to disable such behaviour? I couldn't find

Quota command not working

2001-08-15 Thread Tadeusz Bak

Hi all,

System: Debian 2.2r3, kernel 2.2.19. Quota support is basically working
because users can't exceed the hard limit. Also the command 'repquota'
displays correct settings for all users. However the command 'quota'
issued by user or 'quota -u user' issued by root always results in:

Disk quotas for user ... : none

According to the manual page the output should show disk usage and set
limits. Do you have any ideas what may be wrong? Thanks!

unlink or kernel error?

2000-04-01 Thread Tadeusz Bak

Hi all,

Sorry, my problem is probably not Debian specific... I tried to run under
slink with the 2.0.36 kernel the following program:

#define RUN /tmp/.rem.run
#include stdio.h
#include sys/types.h
#include sys/stat.h
#include fcntl.h
#include unistd.h
main()
{
  open(RUN, O_RDWR|O_CREAT, S_IRUSR|S_IWUSR);
  printf(File created\n);
  sleep(30);
  unlink(RUN);
  printf(File removed\n);
  sleep(30);
  printf(Finish\n);
}

After the message File created I can see that there is a file .rem.run
in /tmp directory. After File removed that file disappears. But
according to unlink man page it should exist up to the message Finish
because it is not closed. Only after terminating the program kernel
closes all open files and .rem.run should be removed. Does anybody have
an idea what's going on here? Thanks!

Xappeal is a DOS, not Windows program. You can get it from any SimTel

How to install tcl8.0.4 ?

1998-12-09 Thread Tadeusz Bak

Hi all,

I have Debian 2.0 (hamm) system running and I wanted to install the new
tcl8.0.4 package from frozen. It turned out that it depends on libc6
(=2.0.7u-6) -- my libc6 is older. There is libc6 2.0.7u-7 in frozen but
it conflicts with libstdc++2.8 (2.90.29-2). And I can't upgrade to the
new libstdc++2.8 (2.90.29-2) because it depends on libc6 (=2.0.7u-6).
Both these libraries have status 'required', so I am afraid to use dpkg
--force, as I don't want to break my system down. Could someone give me a
piece of advice please? Thanks in advance.

Re: Linux -- SunOS connection terminal problem

 Is there an incantation involving termcap or terminfo that will make
 these SunOS computers be able to use my linux terminal?

I have had the same problem. To solve it I created ~/.terminfo/l 
directory on Sun and copied there the /etc/terminfo/l/linux file from my Linux 
box. Then I added the following line to the .login file on Sun (I use csh 
shell):
setenv TERMINFO $HOME/.terminfo
  
It works for me.

Bug in libc5.4.13

1997-01-20 Thread Tadeusz Bak
That simple program compiled under Debian-1.2 (libc5.4.13) produces wrong 
results.

#include stdio.h
main()
{
  double a;
  printf(input: );
  scanf(%lf, a);
  printf(value = %f\n, a);
}

$ ./test01
input: 2e-3
value = 0.002000

$ ./test01
input: 2E-3
value = 2.00  


The bug is fixed in libc5.4.17 (from bo directory). So I think that 
libc in rex should be upgraded.

Re: Problem: building kernel-image

dpkg-gencontrol: failure: chown new files list file: Illegal seek
make: *** [stamp-image] Error 29
 
 You probably issue make-kpkg under script.

Yes, you are right.

 If so, you may build kernel whithout scripting.

It solved the problem. Thank you very much!

Problem: building kernel-image

1996-12-20 Thread Tadeusz Bak
Hi, 

After upgrading to Debian-1.2 (it went very smooth, thanks) i tried to 
build a new kernel. I installed the kernel-source-2.0.27.deb from devel 
directory and then I did:
   make menuconfig
   make-kpkg kernel_image
There was no problem with compilation, but at the end I got:

cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage \
   debian/tmp-image/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.27
cp vmlinux debian/tmp-image/boot/vmlinux-2.0.27
cp System.map debian/tmp-image/boot/System.map-2.0.27
chmod 644 debian/tmp-image/boot/vmlinuz-2.0.27 \
  debian/tmp-image/boot/vmlinux-2.0.27 \
  debian/tmp-image/boot/System.map-2.0.27
dpkg-gencontrol -pkernel-image-2.0.27 -Pdebian/tmp-image/
dpkg-gencontrol: failure: chown new files list file: Illegal seek
make: *** [stamp-image] Error 29

Could someone give me a piece of advice please? I have the kernel-package 
version 3.03.
Thanks!
