Re: xfs-installation-13.04
Hago, make sure you have the Fontservers running BEFORE starting X. Adding a line like: xfstt in your /etc/rc.d/rc.local, you can start it at boot time. (I think, with SuSE, the appropriate script is /sbin/init.d/boot.local) Have fun, Oliver Am Don, 13 Apr 2000 schrieben Sie: Hi , Am Thu, 13 Apr 2000 schrieben Sie: For truetype fonts you need to install the extra truetype font server 'xfstt'. It should also be included in the SuSE distribution. http://fonts.linuxpower.com/ That is how I got .ttf fonts workin' I found everything -thank you very much- and got it working, the fonts are now available - BUT: if I put the FontPath "unix/:7101" to the XF86Config file, The Xserver will not work at the next boot. If I contact the internet it crashes too. The same problem I had with "localhost:7100" with xfsft. Something doesn't work - any hints?

Re: xfs-installation-13.04
Hago, have a look at http://www.linuxgazette.com/issue28/ayers1.html, where Larry Ayers described the xfstt true type fontserver. I run the xfstt at a redhat6.1 with a link from my /usr/share/fonts to my true type fonts dir in a fat16 partition, and it works fine! Have also a look at http://fonts.linuxpower.org/help.php3?title=Help Have fun, Oliver Am Don, 13 Apr 2000 schrieben Sie: Hi all, for hours now I'm trying to install new fonts for gimp. Freefont and sharefont have been easy to install, but I don't succeed to install the truetype fonts (I'm trying first to install only verdana) I installed xfs as it is consulted in its install-text, then I read a lot of text in my SuSE-manual, but it doesn't help, it just confuses. My fonts are in: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fontsthe encodings tarball in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/encodings the truetype fonts in: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fontstt inside there is now: fonts.dir, verdana.ttf fonts.dir: 1 verdana.ttf -microsoft-verdana-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-1 in XF86Config I have set the paths: .. FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/sharefont" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/ttfonts/fonts.dir" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/encodings/encodings.tar" I also tried to set : FontPath "tcp/localhost:7100" But after the reboot I couldn't start the Xserver anymore and I had to remove it. and there is: /etc/xfs.config What can I do? What is the fault? Some help would be very pleasant Thank you Hago -- Oliver Bienert Phone: 030-47475624 eMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by KMail --
Re: Select transparent areas
Am Mon, 07 Feb 2000 schrieb Sandip Bhattacharya: The bucketfill doesn't work without selecting an area first. And suppose I want to select the area INSIDE a triangle that I have drawn, I can't. Am I missing something? In PS one can use bucketfill to fill the transparent area inside a line drawing. Is this a feature or a bug in Gimp? - Sandip Hi, Duplicate your transparent layer with the triangle and hide one of the two layers. Now create a white layer and choose "Merge Visible Layers" in the layers menu. Choose fuzzy select from the tools box and select the area by clicking insite your triangle on the white layer. Choose what ever you want to fill with (e.g. a color) and change to your transparent layer. Now take the bucket fill and have fun. Hope this helps Cheers Olli -- Oliver Bienert Phone: 030-47475624 eMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by KMail --
Re: make install woes
Am Mit, 26 Jan 2000 schrieben Sie: does anyone have any idea why the newest developer gimp wouldn't install correctly from source? i can run ./configure, make, and make install (yes, as root) just fine, but all gimp does is install its libraries... the data files are build just fine, but not installed. any ideas? i've peeked at the makefiles, but it didn't help much. any help would be greatly appreciated. oh almost forgot... i'm on a pentium 266Mhz w/64mb ram ~4gb of free space. glibc gtk+ are both at version 1.2.6 anything else just email me. ps- yes, this is the "latest" ddeveloper gimp (1.1.15) -- Kappa [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] http://members.linuxstart.com/~kappa ICQ: 61836890 Hi, I installed gimp 1.1.15 a couple of days before and everything works fine. I run a Red Hat Linux 6.1 and made an upgrade to the newest libs (glibc, gtk...) Also have installed Gtk-Perl-0.700 but I think, this is not neccessary to basically run gimp. Are you sure, running ./configure finds everyting it needs? Have you installed all else neccessary libs, e.g. libjpeg, libtiff (upgrade) etc.? Make sure, you have also installed the development parts of the packages (e.g. gtk+-devel 1.2.6-1 on my system)! Have you made an "make uninstall" in the root dir of previously installed gimp-version or removed any old rpm-packages, that have installed gimp in your system? Don´t know, if my hints may be helpful, anyhow, hope you will be successful, Cheers Olli -- Oliver Bienert Phone: 030-47475624 eMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by KMail --
