Made change in the individual TeX file. Still had problem with the Hebrew character definitions, i.e.

(/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/ucs/data/uni-5.def) ! Undefined control sequence.

solved...i did't read man very well, the problem was that ulog table wasn't created.
Error reporting is not so clear but...
somewhere in the pc ulogd place a file for every db, called *.dump. as soon as i create the table structure the insert query works. sorry, thanks for your time.

first thing I'd do is very closely read the xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0.log generated by *each* system and look for critical differences.=20

It could be something as simple as the dpi setting, for example. It could also be a theme thing. THe default fonts, colors, etc could just be a better setup for you.=20

Greetings,

Confused? Frustrated?X

I recently tried out a fairly recent Ubuntu boot CD (just to test it - no plans on switching from Debian which I love) and was surprised to see that my X desktop looked so much better: it was brighter and even in the gnome-term and xterm I tried the fonts seemed better contrast, more crisp! I wonder what Ubuntu is doing that my X.org didn't do? I was running XFree86 before and also had same issues: my display was noticeably less bright and same issue with fonts, X.org package did automagically setup my /etc/X11/xorg.conf and everything seems to work fine except these 2 issues could obviously be better. So my question is HOW can I make my Debian X desktop look as nice as the one from the Ubuntu CD? How do you adjust the brightness in X, is there some app to do it? Or way to set it at X server level so it's always like that? And what about the fonts? I am running Debian testing with 2.6.18 kernel on Dell Latitude C600 laptop. Also does anyone know how to enable hardware acceleration for an ATI Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x gfx card? I tried playing an OpenGL game and it told me hardware accel. was disabled.

Below is my /etc/X11/xorg.conf and info on my gfx card:

Ok, do you know a general way to increase the screen brightness in X? Most gfx drivers in Windows come with a way to change the brightness but I have no driver for this so I guess X.org just picked something generic. I remember when I had my old Nvidia card I could use 'nv' or 'nvidia' driver to get hardware acceleration working. Any idea how to do so for my ATI card?

As Dennis points out elsewhere, you can configure gnome-terminal to run your shell as a login shell. Another approach is to source /etc/profile in the file ~/.gnomerc, which is itself sourced by GNOME. That will make your environment available to all applications, e.g., xterm.

It accepts 2 parameters: - the background pdf file - the pdf file in which apply the background pdf file (the printed file name) So, in the /etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf 'PostProcessing' section i write: ... PostProcessing /usr/local/bin/watermark_pdf my_background_file.pdf .... The second parameters (the printed file name) is passed directly from cups-pdf. It will permit you to use print all your documents with a watermark. If you need more explanations about the scripts above, let me know. It also writes a log file (for now writes to log if executed manually, probably some problem of authorization...), so you can check if works good, there's also some input controls (no parameters / no pdf files). If you print images, probably no watermark will be applied. Hope it help you!

Then the problem probably lies with the program which throws the exception. Yes, I know it works in a Windows environment, but even with Java it is possible to write non-portable code. Is the source code available? Try writing a simple, "Hello World!" program using AWT for comparison, e.g., import java.awt.*; public class HelloWorld { public static void main(String[] args) { Frame f = new Frame(); f.add(new Label("Hello World")); f.pack(); f.setVisible(true); } } End of debian-user-digest Digest V2007 Issue #1818 ************************************************** Received on Thu Jun 21 17:44:27 2007
