OpenOffice won't access nfs partition

Shlomo Solomon — 2008-10-12T18:59:34

I just upgraded OpenOffice on my wifes Mandriva 2007.1 computer (to OO 2.1). Now she can no longer save documents on a partition mounted as NFS (the partition is on my machine). This is specific to OO. Other applications can write to the drive, so it's not a permission problem (but some OO setting that I may have screwed up). The error message is: Error saving he document General Error General input/output error Sometimes I also get: error during shared access I looked at all the confguration settings but didn't find anything. Any ideas what I'm missing?

Re, more readable?: Email Hosting (POP+SMTP) Recommendation

Email Hosting (POP+SMTP) Recommendation

Hi all! Can anyone recommend email hosting (secure POP + SMTP) without an overzealous blacklisting policy?

GCC precompiled headers not working

Shachar Shemesh — 2008-10-09T19:58:15

Hi all, I'm having trouble getting gcc to do pre-compiled headers. The instructions for doing it are at http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Precompiled-Headers.html. Here's what I got: precomp.h: hello.c: Here's what I do: $ gcc -x c -o precomp.h.gch -c precomp.h -g -Wall -O2 Uncomment the "error" line $ gcc -x c -o hello.o -c hello.c -g -Wall -O2 In file included from hello.c:1: precomp.h:4:2: error: #error Include twice Now, here's the strange part, when I run the compile command through strace, strace shows: So, to recap: * My version of gcc DOES support precompiled headers. * I am placing the precompiled headers file at the right location * gcc DOES manage to find my precompiled header file when it searches for it * But it ignores it! Now the gcc page does give a list of reasons why a precompiled header might be ignored, by my test case does not appear to cover any of those reasons. The header file is a simple one, no defines before the precompiled header, exact same comma

Looking for a recommended card and software to record all VCR cassettes into eventually a DVD.

Hi all and Happy Yom Kipur (From Morfix.co.il: "may you be signed and sealed in the book of life"), Having all that time now, I am trying to figure out how to make my Gentoo machine (laptop) to be able to record my cassettes collection from the old VCR which has an analog antenna output only. I don't want to tire you with the details of my search till now because I got entirely confused (like DVB devices).

moving from ADSL to HOT (Cable)

Shlomo Solomon — 2008-10-08T03:41:08

I'm thinking of moving from ADSL to HOT (Cable). I wanted to know 2 things: 1 - Since today I have an ADSL router (bought from Bezek), I no longer use pptp, NAT or any other Linux tools to connect to the Internet. The router is the only "computer" connected and all my Linux boxes (and my kids' Windows) connect "automatically". Would this be the case with cable too, or do I have to go back to having one computer act as a server for all the internet connection on my network (of 5 computers)? 2 - Is cable as reliable as ADSL - speed, disconnects, etc?

[YBA] Logical VS Visual Text Selection

Jonathan Ben Avraham — 2008-10-06T16:50:14

What happened to ivrix.org.il? Java Swing supports visual caret motion but logical selection. The engineering decision for selection was based on technical realities (read budget) rather than what was best for the bidi user. The asymmetry of the situation never sat well with Brian Beck however. There is a chance to change this in JavaFX, if it is perceived as adding significant value. Is visual selection implemented in any bidi text editor? How much of an improvement would it be to implement visual text selection in OpenOffice, in JavaFX? Would this be a killer feature to add to Hebrew OOo? Regards, - yba

Connecting two Linux Desktops simultaneously to the Internet

Rafi Gordon — 2008-10-04T09:49:26

Hello, I have two Linux Desktops at home (both running Fedora Core 9). I had connected both Desktop to a simple switch; also the ADSL bezeq router (BFOCUS 312+) is connected to the switch. One desktop has this ip address on eth0: 10.0.0.1 and on the second I configured 10.0.0.2 as the ip address on eth0. I can ping from 10.0.0.1 to 10.0.0.2 (and vice versa). When working in this topology,I am able to connect to the Internet from these both Desktops , in condition that the other one is not connected to the Internet (namely, "service network stop" was ran on the second machine, for example). However, if one machine is connected to the Internet, and I try "service network restart" on the second , I get an error (it cannot start the ppp interface on the machine where I run "service network restart"). My question is: is there a way to be able to be connected from these two Desktops simultaneously to the Internet ? I tried to add a second NIC on one machine, and configure that machine as a bridge, and

[Haifux Lecture] GIMP tutorial workshop meeting (hosted) by Eli Billauer

Orr Dunkelman — 2008-10-02T21:31:44

Next Monday, October 6th, at 18:30, haifux is about to meet and hear Eli Billauer's talk about GIMP tutorial workshop meeting GIMP is the most well-known image editing application among Linux users, and still most of us struggle when attempting to accomplish the simplest real-life task with it. The application is considered a Photoshop parallel, even though it doesn't attempt to imitate the latter. It's a free software project, available at no cost for GNU/Linux, Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Solaris and many others. The workshop will consist of no slides, but some simple whiteboard explanations and a lot of demonstrations. Focus will be given to basic issues and everyday tasks, and those small pieces of knowledge which makes GIMP a handy tool. The meeting has an agenda to start with, but will be conducted in a free manner, so audience's interests may influence its content to a large extent. This workshop will be dedicated to layers and layer masks for three main reasons: * Not understanding

Digikam equivalent for Videos?

Amos Shapira — 2008-09-29T11:33:59

Hello, I've been a happy Digikam user for many years now - managing photos taken with camera and phone, burning CD's, editing etc. I now need something which will allow me to do basic manipulation of videos. I don't expect to do much editing, just something like Digikam which will allow me to organize videos, maybe add comments and export onto data CD's/DVD's to send to family. Can anyone recommend something like this?

slirp chicken and egg problem

Geoffrey S. Mendelson — 2008-09-28T20:00:18

Thanks for the suggestions and help, I'm further along, but here's were I'm stuck. If I invoke pptp and connect to it from a windows machine, it makes a connection and then passes control to pppd. On a regular system pppd passes back a data stream that windows recongnizes as coming from pppd and starts communicating. In my case, I can't run pppd because it calls the kernel ppp driver and the kernel does not have it. So I tried to replace pppd with Slirp. Slirp supports ppp. So I tell pptpd to invoke slirp instead of pppd, and include ppp in the slirp options file. I start up pptp, and it waits. I connect from windows and it starts Slirp. Slirp displays a message that it's starting and going into ppp mode. Windows waits for a response from Slirp, as if it were pppd, and Slirp waits for a response from Windows. What do I do? Thanks, Geoff.

PPP without using a kernel module?

Geoffrey S. Mendelson — 2008-09-28T18:10:21

I have a need to set up a VPN to a "virutal sever" which does not support PPP in the kernel. Is there such a thing as a USER SPACE only implementation of ppp? There is one for SLIP (e.g. SLIRP), but I need ppp. Thanks, Geoff.

Firefox chokes on YNET

Shlomo Solomon — 2008-09-28T04:44:08

I have firefox 2.0.0.16 on Mandriva 2008.1 - all packages up-to-date. When I open YNET, CPU usage jumps to about 150% (AMD dual core - over 70% on each core). Closing YNET brings thngs back to normal. Has anyone seen this and/or any solutions? BTW - I should mention that I have way too many FF extensions, but that doesn't cause any problems on other sites, so I don't think there's any connection.

Where to find modules for pre-compiled debian kernel

Geoffrey S. Mendelson — 2008-09-22T19:33:52

I have access to a "virtual machine" running Debian, kernel "2.6.18-fza-028stab053.5-686-bigmem". I need to add a module to the kernel, but it currently does not exist. I have permission of the owner of the real machine to do anything I want to the virtual one, and have root access via sudo. What I lack is Debian knowledge to this point. I'm too spoilt by Red Hat and it's derivatives, YUM. I assume this was a pre-compiled kernel, can I find the modules for it without having to recompile them? Thanks, Geoff.
