There is a glaring bug on my profile page my age is listed as 8 years younger than I am! What is going on if its a joke great but I want to be in on the jokes thanks!

Hey Y'all I'm new to the whole linux thing. I got 5 disks with different versions of linux from a friend and decided to try it out knowing (in my limited knowledge that linux and mac rule over pc). However I wiped my pc with Autoclave hoping to install Linux as the sole OS(well all 5 versions as needed). Now I cant install linux what do I do!?

Am I doing something wrong?

 

i untarred ndiswrapper and went into that dir, is there a different command i should be using besides make?

 

I have opensuse, kde, in a bash shell

1.

Red Hat has warned that hackers were able to commandeer its systems and tamper with code - but said that since its content distribution was not hit, it is confident that polluted code has not served up to users.

 

The first hint that something was wrong came last week when Fedora rebuilt its systems, a reconstruction that was accompanied by extended outages. Red Hat sponsors the Linux distribution. Fortunately Fedora packages weren't interfered with following the attack, but Red Hat Enterprise Linux packages were touched up by as yet unidentified miscreants.

I need to define a font alias for htmldoc ghostscript on a Debian Etch Linux system running LAMPP in /opt/lampp.

There are actually two conversions done, first from HTML to Postscript, using htmldoc, then from PS to PDF using ghostscript. htmldoc and gs are called from a perl script running unter apache in /opt/lampp . I would rather have only one step, but htmldoc can not produce CMYK PDF. Htmldoc also seems to support only a predefined set of font names, so I decided to use Courier where Arnold Boecklin is needed.

 

I installed the Arnold Boecklin font to /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts, defined it as /ArnoldBoeD in /var/lib/defoma/gs.d/dirs/fonts/Fontmap and changed the /Courier alias from Nimbus-something to /ArnoldBoeD.

While GS prints a message that it is using ArnoldBoeD instead of Courier, the resulting PDF contains the real Courier font. As I tell htmldoc to embed the fonts, this is probably where the substitution fails. Command lines see below.

 

I also replaced the courier font files (n022003l.pfb as well as the htmldoc fonts, see below) with renamed ArnoldBoeD files. Still this does not help the PDF, although I can see the Arnold Boecklin font instead of Courier in my X11 window title bars.

htmldoc and gs are called from a perl script running unter apache in /opt/lampp , but if called manually from a root console, it does not make any difference.

 

What files and directories did I probably miss to edit?

 

Thanks in advance for your help!

 

 

 

 

First step:

htmldoc --format ps3 -f "temp/Katalog-021.ps" --bodyimage "temp/katalog-head.jpg" --webpage --no-title --size A4 --left 0.50in --right 0.50in --top 0.50in --bottom 0.50in --header ... --header1 ... --footer .1. --nup 1 --tocheader .t. --tocfooter ..i --portrait --color --no-pscommands --no-xrxcomments --no-compression --jpeg=0 --fontsize 10.0 --fontspacing 1.2 --headingfont Courier --bodyfont Courier --headfootsize 11.0 --headfootfont Helvetica --charset iso-8859-1 --links --embedfonts --pagemode document --pagelayout single --firstpage p1 --pageeffect none --pageduration 10 --effectduration 1.0 --no-encryption --permissions all --owner-password \"\" --user-password "" --browserwidth 680 --no-strict --no-overflow temp/Katalog-021.html

 

Second step:

gs -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite "-sOutputFile=temp/Katalog-021.pdf" -dProcessColorModel=/DeviceCMYK -f "temp/Katalog-021.ps"
