    Help!

    ya, the next release was going ot add drivers.. but I think hpoj and hpij are getable with slapt.. you can install them on the live cd. they just go away on reboot. I have a running list.. if you see other drivers I need to add let me know as I forget a lot and I look back at these post to see if I missed something..
  2. after you untar it.. its that way to make it download.. most browsers will try to "display" a .iso file.. I don't have a FTP site so I have to cheet. also its makes it 30 megs smaller as a download.

    my fault it 631 not 634.. so localhost:631 you should be able to add the printer. you may have to download a driver.. I'll see if I can find it.

    Help!

    go to a web browser and type localhost:634 this will get you to the CUPS admin page.. if that is not running.. let me know... I have to admit I never tested printing so makeing it work for you will go into the next release.. I'm just happy some one uses it.. the upgrade to 2.6 I had to put on hold for school.

    Help!

    thats a good choice. but If you could before you kill SUSE .. post the output of hte command dmesg. do this after your cdrom does a random open.. I would wonder if supermount is flaking out..
  7. ok this is why I post this stuff. I alwyas find my answer 10 min later. my make file created by qmake is incorrect.. I also needed to create a env variable called QTDIR which pointed to /usr/qt/3 and add a linking -lqt along with my lib was wrong.. qmake said it was in /usr/X11R6/lib but it was in /usr/qt/3/lib this command showed me what to do g++ -Wall -I/usr/qt/3/include -L/usr/qt/3/lib test.cpp -o hello -lqt
  8. ok I am giving qt a try when it comes to programing.. but for the life of me I can not get anything to compile.. here is my first program #include <qapplication.h> #include <qpushbutton.h> int main( int argc, char **argv ) { QApplication a( argc, argv ); QPushButton hello( "Hello world!", 0 ); hello.resize( 100, 30 ); a.setMainWidget( &hello ); hello.show(); return a.exec(); } bash-2.05b$ cd /mnt/maxtor3/programing/qt bash-2.05b$ ls Makefile qt.pro rr temp test.cpp test.o bash-2.05b$ make g++ -o qt test.o -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXext -lX11 -lm test.o(.text+0x2c): In

    Help!

    what does working in windows have anything to do with Linux??? Lexmark made crapy linux drivers...not the linux community.. so its their fault.. I expect that when a company makes drivers.. they make them work.and if not I stear people away from them. These companies think they can relases crap and we should be happy.. but that is BS.. they should put the same effort into Linux drivers as they do Windows.. and for a company to say..well we don;t know which linux.. is also crap.. NVIDIA has had zero problems supporting both Linux and BSD with the same driver.. no issue as to which version or d

    Help!

    read the first post http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=1168777#1168777 the problem is Lexmark does not support Linux.. They wrote a driver with a script that does not work.. But they refuse to fix it.. I personally would toss the printer since HP has some nice ones at $50 with full scan,copy,print function that works with hpoj installed in SUSE.
  12. BSD has been around longer.. if you like ports.. there is gentoo. it has a "ports" or should I say portage..
  13. what is it they are missing?
  14. yes and to expand on Nerelda statments.. these are caused by ethier java or flash. the site is not doing standard popups.. but running a external java or flash appt. since its not a true popup it is not stoped by popup blockers. the first thing I do is note the site.. I email the admin for the site. and then I never go back unless the admin tells me they removed the popus.. I understand they need to advertise.. but places like anandtech and tomshardware advertise with out pushing out its users.
  15. this looks compleate to me.. includeing pointing out some freeware for winder..... http://iso.snoekonline.com/iso.htm
  16. here is my boring solaris 10. but I kind of like the Java Desktop.
  17. some art donated to my Linux Distro by TICTOC.. I'll get some better pictures soon to show his work off.
  18. ragular arm is like a bucked that has a plug. you charge it.. and as long as you keep the charge on it, it stays that way.. so a charge is a logical one and no charge is a logical zero. once the charge goes away all the memory blocks become zero. with flash we change the chip at the logical level with each write.. this is why it is also not as fast as normal ram and also why it has a limited amount of write cycles. if you look up FPGA you will see a better understanding.. A field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is an integrated circuit (IC) that can be programmed in the field after manufa
  19. your answer was correct.. I just expanded on it..
  20. besides this quote , that I do not understand as there is no needl ein a harddrive (a record player yes harddrive no) here is the diffrence.. a hard drive is a magnetic medium like a tape drive, but unlike a tape drive a hard drive is not liner. It can seek across a disk not just from beginning to end like tape. A hard drive has a large write cycle before the magnetic medium on the disk surface will not longer be magnetically chargeable. This property gives you almost unlimited write and read cycles. The size of storage is only limited by the physical size of the magnetic head and the acc
  21. yep.. sorry with this font I thought it was (one)t and I could not figure out what that stood for.. bash is confusing to me that way.. im used to < or <= .. this lt or ne and so on alwyas cates me off guard. thanks..
  22. what is -lt (is that like NE or !=) while [ $x -lt 10 ] an why should you suggest a better way.. thanks
  23. or any other graphix people.. ok Iccaros-linux is opening a cafepress site. http://www.cafepress.com/iccaroslinux but if you see I have limited art.. I need some good linux/GNU art that could go up there.. any help would be appresated.. the proces listed right now are the cafepress base price.. I will problay add 1$ to that to go to the site. the rest goes to cafepress (thats what you get for free)
  24. I think you want to do arrays.. (bash does one dimention arryas) here is a quick bash array bash-2.05b$ cat test #!/bin/bash DATE[1]=one DATE[2]=two echo ${DATE[1]} bash-2.05b$ you could also do this #!/bin/bash echo" input an answer" read inp echo "input another answer" read inp2 DATE[1]=$inp DATE[2]=$inp2 echo ${DATE[1]} echo ${DATE[2]}
