Cannot use type1 fonts with OpenOffice

2003-10-19 Thread Ernest Adrogué
Hello,

I'm using OpenOffice 1.1.0 and want to use some fonts
that I have in /usr/local/.../{truetype,type1}. They are
visible with gtkfontsel and gtk2fontsel, and show up in
xlsfonts and fc-list as well, but with OpenOffice I can
only use the TrueType ones. The Type1 ones just doesn't
appear in the list.

However the Helvetica & co. which are also Type1 work
fine. I've moved all the fonts to /usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1,
updated the fonts.dir and fonts.scale files, but in
vain. Any help will be appreciated.

P.S.: Please, CC me in replies.

I'm using Debian "Woody" with some packages (xfree, gtk,
freetype, openoffice...) from testing.

This only changes the paths where fontconfig finds fonts,
but OpenOffice still doesn't see them. Although every other
app using fontconfig/xft/x11 do. So I think this is a
oo-specific problem.

Thank you, anyway.

Cannot set Vera Serif as the default serif font

2004-09-30 Thread Ernest Adrogué
Hello,

I have defined the Bitstream Vera Serif as my preferred serif
font in my ~/.fonts.conf:

 
  serif

 Bitstream Vera Serif
 URW Palladio L
 FreeSerif

 

However, that particular font just seems to be ignored. When I
select the font "serif" I get the URW Palladio L. Aside from that
this font works well, so I guess it's fontconfig related.

Does anybody ken how to fix this... thing?

empty tty's

2004-02-22 Thread Ernest Adrogué
Hi,

When I switch from one tty to another with Alt + left/right
arrow, it cycles through tty7 to tty12 (which are empty) instead
of going from tty6 directly to tty1, which would be more useful.
Oddly enough, when I start X11 and exit, then it skips the
empty tty's. Does anybody know how to do this by default?

BTW, I'm using Debian testing.

Thanks,

black and white icons in gtk-3 file chooser dialog

2014-04-18 Thread Ernest Adrogué
Hi,

After a system upgrade, the GTK3 file chooser dialog has begun to use a
different icon theme for the side panel, which consists of ugly
black-and-white icons.

GTK2 file chooser:
http://s22.postimg.org/qoc55r11t/gtk2_fc.png

GTK3 file chooser:
http://s23.postimg.org/a0g3cj63v/gtk3_fc.png

I'm running Debian testing and this are the contents of my GTK3 settings
file:
$ cat .config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini 
[Settings]
gtk-theme-name = Clearlooks-Phenix
gtk-icon-theme-name = Tango
gtk-key-theme-name = Emacs
gtk-enable-event-sounds=true
gtk-enable-input-feedback-sounds=true
gtk-sound-theme-name=freedestop
gtk-primary-button-warps-slider = false
$

Does any one know how to fix this issue?

Thanks!

problema amb client de sopcast

2012-06-14 Thread Ernest Adrogué
Hola,

Des de l'últim 'apt-get upgrade' sembla que no hi ha manera que
funcioni el client de sopcast 'sp-sc' del paquet sp-auth (non-free).

En principi no dóna cap error, simplement als pocs segons d'arrencar
es para amb aquests missatges:

...
Start cache thread.
hook_broker_connect:msgType=2
reason=1
SO_QUIT
retv = -104
 spsc_cleanup

Algú més si ha trobat?

How to assign a persistent device name to an infra-red receiver?

2014-01-06 Thread Ernest Adrogué
Hi there

I have configured lirc to use /dev/input/event4 but it turns out this device
name is assigned to a different input device every time the computer boots,
thus preventing lirc from working properly.

For example, right now the receiver is on /dev/input/event5.  I guess I have
to write a udev rule for this but when I look at
/lib/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-input.rules I am a little confused.  Do I
have to modify this file directly, copy it to /etc/ and edit that copy, run
some script...?

Regards.

keyboard input in terminal emulators vs X11 apps

2012-02-11 Thread Ernest Adrogué
Hi,

I was setting some key bindings in emacs and it puzzled me
that some of those bindings worked in emacs-x but not in emacs-nox.

Then I fired up emacs in a tty, in an X terminal emulator and also a
graphical frame and quoted-insert several key combinations that seem
problematic. This is the result

|   | del   | backspace | C-backspace | C-M-space|
|---+---+---+-+--|
| linux tty | ^[[3~ | ^?| ^H  | ^[   |
| xfce term | ^[[3~ | ^?| ^?  | ^[  (^[ + space) |
| gtk emacs | ^D| ^?| | \200 |

(I wasn't able to quote-insert C-backspace in gtk emacs, it simply
killed the word before the point.)

By looking at the table above it can be seen that the xfce terminal
emulator generates a wrong escape sequence when C-backspace is
pressed, which is the same sequence as backspace. (This explains why
this binding didn't work when emacs was running in a terminal
emulator.) The C-M-space sequence is also suspect because it doesn't
match that of the linux tty. Is this a bug in the terminal emulator or
a X.org thing? I don't know.

Also, it appears that gtk emacs sometimes gets completely different
escape sequences, this I don't understand either.

Any comment on this issue will be appreciated.

Cheers,
Ernest

No, I haven't got ibus installed.

tecles per navegar per l'historial

2012-03-07 Thread Ernest Adrogué
Hola,

Una recomanació que potser us interessa, si afegiu

"\ep": history-search-backward
"\en": history-search-forward

a l'.inputrc fa que les tecles Alt+p i Alt+n busquin a l'historial una
entrada que coincideixi amb la línia actual. 

Si la línia actual està en blanc és equivalent a les tecles de fletxa
amunt i avall, però per exemple si escric 'sp-' i Alt-p em substitueix
el text per l'última ordre que vaig executar que començava per 'sp-'.

Més pràctic que Ctrl+r.

Ernest
