In gvim I see more fonts than in kvim. And I have problems to choose
the right font. So I will stay with gvim.

Thanks!

  From a quick read of you diff.gz file, you should:
  - rename file menu.ex to menu and fill it with the appropriate values.
  - set the appropriate Section in debian/control
 
  I'd suggest you to install lintian and linda packages and run your .changes
file through them, and solve all issues shown by them. Being linda & lintian
clean is a must for a package.

Dependency Problems -- Take II

2004-09-03 Thread Robert Tilley
I upgrade recently to Knoppix 3.6 from 3.4.  My video configuration was 
damaged, not performing as desired, and reinstalling Knoppix was the easiest 
path to a working system.

This dependency problem has occured before (review 23 Jun if interested) and 
the same solutions are not working now.  The following is a transcript of an 
attempted removal/purge of the frozen-bubble package.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/tilleyrw# dselect

Until this is resolved, I do not have a complete system as these dependency 
problems prevent apt-upgrades.  Any advice is most appreciated.

Frozen bubble problem solved

2004-09-03 Thread Robert Tilley
What follows is a log of my failed attempts to deal with the frozen-bubble 
package on my system.  The dependency problems I was experiencing were 
preventing all updates.

If you can piece through this log and gain some insight, my work will be done.
The sequence of the commands was:

  apt-get --reinstall install
  cat /dev/null >/usr/games/frozen-bubble.wav
  apt-get --purge remove frozen-bubble frozen-bubble-data
  apt-get -f install
  apt-get install frozen-bubble

Google Saves The Day!  GSTD!!!

Kmail logging

2004-09-03 Thread Dennis Busboom
Is there a way to have kmail make log entries for mail that is sent?
Currently mail is sent from the client with the ISP's smtp server
specified which works fine.  But there is no logging of outbound 
mail this way, and the ISP won't allow smarthost/relayhost/etc
so passing mail through the local server, which would handle the logging, 
isn't an option.

I don't see how the ISP can know the difference between kmail sending
directly and an SMTP daemon on your box sending.  Unless they count
received headers or something, but a simple daemon like qpsmtpd could be
patched to remove them and just forward the remainder.  And it (like as
you say any smtpd) could be made to log what it had sent.  I don't have
a direct answer to your question though I'm afraid.
