Hi,
I am VERY new to FreeBSD and am having serious problems setting up my HP
Scanjet 3400c. I installed the SANE back-end and it cannot find any scanners.
I don't think SANE is to blame though, because the dmesg command shows (among
other things) this:
uscanner0: Hew product 0x0405, rev 1.00/0
Joe,
Thanks for your tips.

Roland,
Thanks for your help, but...

It does. I removed the addition you suggested earlier.

I did (had to create the file).

I have to be honest: this OS has made me appreciate XP a bit more. I spent a
couple of nights on my sound card, even more on the 8 buttons of my mouse,
another night on the printer, this afternoon on the usb stick and way too
much time on the scanner. I think I will save the NVIDIA drivers for
Newbie question:
When I open a link ( www.somewwhere.com ) in a Kmail message a small dialog
pops up (that does something very fast - I can't see what) and then the page
is opened as a local file (e.g. file:///var/tmp/kdecache-jayes/krun/943.0.).
The page is text only and none of the hyperlink
Newbie question:
I have mounted my Windows FAT32 partitions. Read & Write works fine, but every
single file on the mounted drives is 'seen' as executable. And that doesn't
change when a file is copied to the UFS partition. This, I think, is asking
for trouble.
(How) can I change this?
Thanks
Hi,
Newbie question:
Does xfce4 maintain file-type associations?
For instance, in Sylpheed, when I click a link in the about box or choose
'open' for an attached jpg nothing happens. Apparently url's and jpg's are not
associated with any program. But I wonder if xfce4 bothers with that. 'Lite'
Hi,
I am struggling to set up a light-weight FreeBSD 6 system with xfce4. I decided
Sylpheed is probably a good choice when it comes to email clients. I have

My apologies.
Installing from source was not a good idea. I now used the ports system and all
is well. I should have read some documentation before I came here with my
questions.
The reason I used the source was the fact that I could not pkg_add the 2.1.7
version of Sylpheed, although it was li
Hi,
I have searched high and low for a simple command-line sound player that I can
call from other apps. I need something that just plays the sound, without any
feedback. Like 'cat sound.wav > /dev/dsp' but without the almost zero
signal-to-noise ratio.
Any ideas?
thanks,

Plays a sound - and that's it. Exactly what I wanted. Thanks!
PS - I knew this existed, but could not find it on Freshports. I had no idea it
was in my own ports.

Hi,
I tried to make a simple script to launch sylpheed when mailto: is clicked in
firefox:
sylpheed --compose "$1"
I put that in a plain text file, made it executable.. and nothing happened.
From the command line I get "permission denied" when I run it. Even when I set
perm to 777.
Next I fin

First of all I've been stupid. I used
# ./ script.name
when I should have used

Apparently, this is what causes the "permission denie
