Hi
I use GNUcash 1.8.8., (SuSE 9.2) and have trouble printing.
The printout doesn't respect the length of the page.-> The letters of the last
line only appears half heigh. (Listings), the graphics (Pie chart) do not
appear in the middle of the page, so certain parts are skipped.
Does anybody know how to correct this? As GNUcash is part of the GNOME
project, there must be a way to define the dimensions of the page. As I am
KDE User, I don't know how.
So I really appreciate if there's someone out there who knows how to do.

Hello people,
this is my first posting...
I'm trying to set up my LusDSL connection and need some assistance. I
could probably ask P&T but the last time I called them asking what the
IP adress of their mail server was my question was too complicated, so..
I have a ZyXel Prestige 600 series modem
ISDN splitter
ISDN line
Suse 9.1 personal
a couple of questions:
Do I need the splitter, and what is it for?
Are long connection cables a problem?
Is the connection using the eth0 preferable? and why?
Once properly wired it should configure using Yast out of the box
(right?). But should it be configured using the
network devices -> Modem
or -> DSL ?
Thanks for any pointers, ADSL is a bit murky in my mind...

Hi,
I've downloaded the ~ 60 MB ISO from ftp.gwdg.de for a network
install of SuSE 9.2.
Now, when booting this thing, I get into the text interface to
configure some basic kernel modules and the ftp server from where
to download packages.
The installer then proceeds to download a 60MB image into ramdisk,
and launches the graphical installer.
The problem is, that graphical installer seems to have trouble
with the VGA controller (onboard, Intel), so that I get something
like a 4-colour mode, with black text on black background - which
is obviously less than optimal.
I haven't found out how to stay in text mode - any hints?
Greets & TIA, Eric

Hello
I've a MSI K8T Neo board with an onboard soundchip. I use SuSE 9.2 (64Bit).
Yast recognized the VT8233A Soundchip and I have trouble recording from an
external source.
I want to record from the line-in, choose it in Qamix as input source, but
krecord doesn't show anything on it's monitor (input level). Then I changed
to the microphone input, but still the same result. I can hear the sound, but
can't select the input source.
Has anybody experience with this, as I doesn't found anything while googling.
Thanx!

Will there be any course notes for any of these classes? I will be in the
UK, but would love to attend the security and possibly the IPv6 classes (I
know that stuff from a network engineer's perspective but I know very little
about the server/workstation side of things).
Hi,
during the LinuxDays 2005 (25th and 26th of January), there will
be a "burnstation" at the Expo, where for a small fee (for empty
CDs) resp. for free (if you bring your own CDs) people can have
some Free Software burned to CD.
The current list of stuff to be made available is:
- Debian (stable/unstable/i386/others)
- Mandrake (free version)
- Fedora Core 3
- The Open CD
- Knoppix
- LinuxBiz Knoppix
- OpenOffice (Mac, Windows, Linux)
If you have specific wishes (projects, CD images) that you
wish included, please tell me so (incl. URL). It should be
obvious that we can only include stuff that's explicitly
authorized for distribution (i.e. Linux Distros including
proprietary stuff are out).
Greetings, Eric
Hi,
I am looking for a way to remote-control an existing Windows session
from Linux, i.e.
- a Windows user is logged on on his machine and has a problem
- he calls me up and I connect to his machine, taking control of the
desktop as he left it
- I interact with his desktop and he can watch, maybe interact as well
(that's an option).
There are several products, like the *VNC range or the Windows build-in
possibilities. Before investigating in detail, has anybody of you any
experience with this kind of situation?

Hi all,
the registration for the LinuxDays 2005 on January 25th and 26th
(tuesday/wednesday) is now open!
http://www.linuxdays.lu/
Depending on the tutorials you may wish to attend, be quick to
register - some are limited in numbers (IPv6 for instance is
max. 12 people).
Feel free to forward this information to the mailinglists of
other LUGs in the region!
Greetings, Eric
Just in case anyone is interested in switching to Cegecom here is a
description of my experience with them so far....
The basic learning points:
1. Cegecom will not provide any support unless you have their modem and
are using Windows.
2. Cegecom's first line tech support people are systems guys. They know
windows very well, but they can't do anything beyond simple
troubleshooting.
3. As a customer you can't get into direct contact with the real
engineers, even if you tell them what the exact problem is, and how they
can fix it. (I guess no one likes being told how to do their job)
Ok, so here is my painful story. It only took 2.5 weeks to resolve....
My service was supposed to start on the 14th of December. I bought a
Linksys all in one router and tried to hook it up. Unfortunately it
wouldn't synchronize with the DSLAM. So I called Cegecom and asked them
if I could bring the router in for testing. I was told that I could
bring it in at any time. When I arrived at the office they asked if I
had an appointment, which I didn't. In short, they refused to do
anything that day. I had to set an appointment for the next day. So
the next day I show up again, the tech support guy comes out to meet me,
he takes one look at my router and says "We don't support that." At
this point I was positive that I had a hardware problem (I had done
loads of other tests on the router by this point) and all that I wanted
them to do was to check to see if the stupid thing would synchronize
with a line that they knew worked. It took quite a bit of pleading just
to get them to do this small thing. Total time pleading: 10 minutes
total time to do my test: <2 min.
The test confirmed that I had a bad router, so I got a replacement
(netgear this time). This router synchronized with the DSLAM instantly,
but PPPoE wasn't working. I tried calling their tech support to see if
they could check their configuration, but was told that they don't
support this router either. In fact, they only support the Alcatel
Speedtouch router.... By this point I was certain that they were at
fault, so I went into their office, bought one of their routers which
was "Guaranteed to work" brought it home, and amazingly, it didn't
work. So, once again, I called their tech support, they ran throught
the usual troubleshooting steps with me, asking which version of windows
i was running. I said Linux and was told that they don't support
Linux. No problem, I said, since the problem is with the DSL line and
not my operating system. Of course that didn't get me anywhere. I told
the tech guy that I was not receiving any replies to my LCP
configuration requests. The answer: "What's LCP?" (in case any one
doesn't know, LCP is Link Control Protocol, it is the part of PPP where
the end devices negotiate the communication rules, how authentication
will be handled etc...) Anyway, he checked the Radius server to see if
my credentials was correct only to find that he wasn't receiving any
authentication packets from me (no kidding, since we haven't even gotten
through LCP yet). At this point he wanted to try to debug my computer
again..... I eventually brought the modem into Cegecom, made them test
it and confirm that my configuration was correct. It was. At this
point my wife called our sales rep and started tearing the poor girl
appart. They agreed to send a tech rep out to my house to install the
system for us. When the tech rep arrived, he got out his router hooked
it up and guess what, it didn't work either.... He called the guy that
manages the radius server and asked him to check things out. At which
point the raduis guy said that he saw something wrong in the DSLAM
configuration. He made one change and my DSL finally worked. We
returned the modem to Cegecom and demanded our money back. We've also
demanded that they pay the installation fee (for sending a tech rep to
our house), our phone bill for all calls to tech support, and our phone
bill for the analog modem connections to our old service provider. The
financial problems are still outstanding.
In short, I'm not very impressed with the company. However, once I got
through to a good tech rep (probably the youngest employee in the
company) my problems were resolved very quickly.
Regards
Mike
