Product : Fedora Core 3
Name : foomatic
Version : 3.0.2
Release : 13.3
Summary : Foomatic printer database.
Description :
Foomatic is a comprehensive, spooler-independent database of printers,
printer drivers, and driver descriptions. It contains utilities to
generate driver description files and printer queues for CUPS, LPD,
LPRng, and PDQ using the database. There is also the possibility to
read the PJL options out of PJL-capable laser printers and take them
into account at the driver description file generation.
There are spooler-independent command line interfaces to manipulate
queues (foomatic-configure) and to print files/manipulate jobs
(foomatic printjob).
The site http://www.linuxprinting.org/ is based on this database.

OpenOffice 1.1/OpenOffice 1.9/StarOffice 7 Threading Problem
by Erich Hoover
I've been banging my head against the wall here for a few days trying to
figure out why I can't get any of the <X>Office programs to run on the
new rawhide kernels and I finally found something that will allow the
programs to load without segfaulting:
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4 ooffice
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4 openofficeorg1.9
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4 soffice
Unfortunately, this does not fix everything with my favorite of the
three (StarOffice) or WINE (which I believe is having a similar
problem). Does anyone know of a better or more permanent fix?

Firefox Problems/Questions
by Reg Clemens
Ive seen several Firefox problems/questions posted to this list, so here
is my list. If I could solve these three, Firefox would be a lot more
usable for me.
(1) There is no 'Print' Icon. I have to go over to the File menu to
print. I REALLY would like a print ICON.
How do I get a PRINT icon?
(2) In the window in the top matter of the frame (whatever you call
that) where I get to type 'http:// ...' , with mozilla I can type
<ctl>U to clear this field before typing a new URL. with Firefox
<ctl>U does what it does elsewhere in the form, bring up the source
html for the page and I have to use <backspace> to clear the field.
How to get the <ctl>U behavior that I expect?
and this is probably most serious
(3) With my screen and resolution the type used in that top header
of the firefox screen is TOO small. Mind you not in the text displayed
in the HTML page, which I know how to fix, but the words 'File' 'Edit'
and the URL in that top header.
How do I make this font LARGER?
Any thoughts?

Firefox not allow some kinds of downloads.
by Rodd Clarkson
Using the current version of Firefox on FC4-development, I'm unable to
save some files to disk.
Here's an example: http://www.senseabilities.com.au/education
Neither of the PDFs on this page can be saved to disk or opened in an
application (the OK button is greyed out)
The PDF's were created using OOo2, and the downloads are being handled
using a CGI script that check the authenticity of the downloader before
offering the file for download. All of this works fine on earlier
versions of Firefox as far as I'm aware.
Oh, and I'm using firefox-1.0-8

REinstalling Grub via dual boot
by Mike Chambers
Hi there,
I dual boot XP with Fedora + rawhide, and am planning on reinstalling
XP. I could just wait until Fedora 4 test 1 comes out and just
reinstall everything, but might go ahead and try windows now.
Upon saying all of that, if I do reinstall XP, what needs to be done to
reinstall grub to the MBR like it is now?

Pan?
by D. D. Brierton
Prompted by Pete Zaitcev's blog:
http://www.livejournal.com/users/zaitcev/18495.html
seen on the Feodra People planet, I had a quick check in Rawhide and
can't see Pan anymore. I'm subscribed to fedora-list and fedora-test-
list, and I've just looked through the web archives of fedora-desktop-
list, fedora-devel-list and fedora-extras-list and can't seem to find
any hint of where the discussion to (apparently) move Pan from Core to
Extras happened. Can anyone point me in the direction of a URL?
I have to say that I have long had certain dissatisfactions with Pan
(GTK2 but not GNOME, non-HIG compliance, UI confusion) but when all is
said and done it still seems better to me than the other options.
Evolution's NNTP support is really primitive, and Thunderbird lacks many
of the things I'd expect from a proper NNTP client which Pan had. What
is the default newsreader in Fedora Core now?
Best, Darren
