Hmmm, you need the spec file and all source files mentioned in it. Put all the source files in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES, the spec file in /usr/src/redhat/SPECS (adjust paths if you compile somewhere else), then 'rpm -ba --clean /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/gnumeric.spec' which will hopefully give you the binary RPMS in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386. I can't think of anything else. I think Laurel meant that you have to do something special if you install _directly_ from source, circumventing package management (in short: you need to tell RPM that e.g. libgtk is there although not in package management). > Since my modem is in dire need of a firmware update that can only be run > under windows (and we use a 28K dialup, anyway), I'll wait till I cna get > to Ben's T1 line at school/work.

[techtalk] cak-handed mouse in X ?
Okay...still no joy with this after some searching through manpages and
howto's...does anyone have an idea how to change a right handed mouse to a
left handed mouse? (ie, reverse the left and right mosue buttons)...recently
been able to reorganise my desk and move the mouse to my left hand (which is
where I prefer it ... it causes less discomfort).
Windows has this nice little "reverse mouse buttons" check box...damned if I
can find owt in the XF86Config man page, the XF86Setup program, or doing a
zgrep through the howto's I have.
If there is no way, I may just grab the source and hack a mod in (not what I
really want to do, but if it comes to it, I'll probably do so).
Thanks :)

[techtalk] Good AGP Video Card?
I'm looking for a decent AGP video card that will work very well with XFree86 3.3.6. I currently have a Voodoo Banshee that is not fully supported even though the compatibility site says it's supposed to be. I've been fiddling with it for the past year now and I'm tired of it. I'm going to run to the store tomorrow, and I would like to buy one that will just work (after I run XF86Setup of course).

Re: [techtalk] cak-handed mice: resolved!
if you want to change the mouse button sequence in console also you can
give gpm the -B option :)
from man gpm :
-B sequence
Set the button sequence. `123' is the normal
sequence, `321' can be used by left-handed people,
and `132' can be useful with two-button mice (espe-
cially within Emacs). All the button permutations
are allowable.

Heh. This looks like a good candidate for a patch for the setup program. (a 'reverse mouse buttons' button which puts this in the .xinitrc.)

[techtalk] newbie mouse weirdness
Hiya, Can anyone offer any clues to some bizarre mouse behaviour? Any help appreciated! My system is a clunky old Pentium 133, with a serial mouse (on ttyS0 I think), and serial modem (on ttyS1). I have recently installed Corel Linux (Debian with a slightly modified KDE desktop) and it's mostly working... I have no Win or MS os on the machine at all, and although it has a PCI network card, it's standalone right now. The weirdness is: Every so often I boot up and have a mouse cursor, but no mouse operation. Right from when the x-server starts up (before KDE displays its login dialog) the X cursor is no go. I checked /dev and it seems there is no "mouse" file/device in there when this happens. The plot thickens - no-one leave the room! I am wading thru the how-to's but nothing seems to address this, or if it does I am just not seeing it.

Re: [techtalk] newbie mouse weirdness
Make sure you have gpm installed. :o) Same thing happened to me before I installed it. If you already do, that could be another problem (obviously!) ;o) Also if you don't have the correct device in X (like the correct mouse type), X won't be happy. On my work machine this was reflected by the mouse only going about 50 pixels from the edges... and the mouse would click itself for me (how considerate, eh?). Once I told it to point to /dev/mouse (regardless of what kind of mouse it thought it was), it fixed the problem (twice, I had to tell vmware to do the same after seeing the same erratic behaviour). -nicole > My system is a clunky old Pentium 133, with a serial mouse (on ttyS0 I > think), and serial modem (on ttyS1).

Hmm. If you do/did have /dev/mouse symlinked to /dev/ttyS(?),
then it shouldnt be sporatically disapearing. Although im yet to check
out Corel Linux (And dont exactly intend to..), and idea would be to maybe
check out your RC scripts, and see if there is anything there that is
creating / deleting the /dev/mouse symlink (Which is f**cking silly, but
it would explain intermittent cases of your /dev/mouse disapearing.
Also find out if your XConfig is actually using /dev/mouse or
explicitly /dev/ttyS{YMMV}.
