This is sort of weird, and hard to explain. In uxrvt, my 'w' and 'm' letters are tiny.Here's a screenshot: this is my ~/.Xdefaults:
Code:
URxvt*foreground:White
URxvt*background:Black

In M$ Word, if you press Alt+X, the letter behind the cursor will become a Unicode hexadecimal string. Where is that functionality in OpenOffice.org Writer?

I even do reset in my keyboard layout setting and in KDE setting but it didn't help.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIn previous versions of Fedora I was able to do Ctrl + Shift + U, enter the Unicode number - i.e., 20ac, press Enter and get a euro character. In Fedora 12 I do not have that feature. My language is US English.
View 5 Replies View RelatedFor some unknown (to me) reason, "Ctrl+Shift+u, <unicode number>" doesn't work in F12. I had gotten quite used to this method in order to input several symbols and if you know what you want, it is a lot faster compared to using the character map. This was working in all recent Fedora versions.Does anyone know how to enable this functionality?
View 4 Replies View RelatedUnfortunately far for all unicode characters can be displayed in Fedora by default, (much less than in M$ Wnd). There is a tool that aim to find and install missing fonts when an non-displayable character appears, but it starts mainly when I accidentally open non-text file in terminal and never when a web-page I open in Mozilla Firefox (or Konqueror) contains such kind of characters. So, I see a rectangle with hexadecimal number of character in it (or simply empty rectangle in case of Konqueror) and don't know if there is a easy way to see it by installing missing font automatically (or manually at last) for range of this character or a way to install complete font collection to display all unicode characters from all ranges.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working on changing some badly named files, lots of them. I have a little script I use to change uppercase to lowercase:

Bear in mind all these files have appropriate numbers in the front of each filename. I need help to change ONLY the first letter after each underscore to an uppercase letter. I'm sure this can be done but I've done so much searching in forums and with Google/linux until I'm scrambled.
After the completely new installation of Fedora 15 the letters are ugly in comparison with FC 14, no matter which font. It doesn't help to set anti-aliasing manually. The edges of the letters leave blurring.

I really don't know how to fix it..
I' seem to have turned on something that causes application windows to collapse into small squares in the upper left hand portion of the screen .I was playing with desktop effects but have turned that off .

2. Evolutin don't work. It don't send letters and don't receive them.
I'm running F15 on a netbook with a 1024x600 pixel display. For some things, this is too small - not high enough.
For example, when setting up Evolution (btw, why do I need to set up a mail-client to use my calendar? ) the forward and other buttons fall off, even though there's in all screens plenty of space to resize... I can guess how to go "Forward" with the tab-button. However, later on, I can't enter the server details, because they too fall off the bottom of the screen.
How can I fix it so that (one of the options below will suffice):
a) I can zoom the desktop (out! I know how to make everything bigger, but that doesn't help) so it all becomes visible, albeit very small?
b) Resize the evolution setup screen - et al?
c) Find another way to make it all visible?
The attached screenshot is just for illustration; this is what I see.
But what is the easiest way to figure out the Unicode number of a character when you already have the character?
For instance, I pasted this character here from a PDF:
It appears that the default boot partition is too small for F12 preupgrade:[URL].. Did anyone try to see if enough space is freed by following these steps? : http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PreUpg...ace_in_.2Fboot
Namely,
1. Leave only 1 kernel
2. tune2fs -r 0 /dev/xxx
3. remove /boot/efi and splash.xpm.gz
"preupgrade now requires at least 167MB" means more space could be needed, and I'm unclear if the above is sufficient.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI would like to ask whether somebody has had the similar experience after KDE 4.4 upgrade.
1. From the attached picture you can see that an icon for xine has a different size. When I change it manually and align the icon, it has previous status after the restart. If I delete that icon and recreate it again, it's smaller than other icons. Icon size for desktop is set up to 32, Desktop Activity.
2. Minimizing/maximizing e.g. Firefox breaks all icons in task bar. I am able to refresh only Firefox/Thunderbird icons.
What can cause these issues? Maybe:
1. my nouveau driver
2. bugs in KDE 4.4.
3. my theme
How to configure DNS server for my small network. In Fedora Linux operating system I want to use Linux as a DNS server for my small office. there are files " /etc/hosts" and "/etc/resolv.conf ".
what is the purpose of these files and in which situation we use these files? For configuring a new DNS server. how can i configure my own DNS server for my small office? Any blog or site in which they show steps to configure DNS server.
I'm trying to record my desktop and tested some solutions. While I was impressed how small .mng files could be, it is a disadvantage that I can't capture audio with it and many users won't be able to open these (browser / Windows). I have been very impressed by the xvidcap instruction videos: 4:30 in only 9MB, which makes 180MB for 90 minutes. This would be suitable. With Camtasia my professor even records 90min in 100MB. The problem is that xvidcap hasn't been updated since 2006 and seems to be dead. RecordMyDesktop needs 6MB for 1 minute or 540MB for 90 minutes, which is too much. Could anybody give me some hints on how to capture very small video files, which are still clear enough to read text in a format most users can open? It would also be cool to be able to show specific PDF or HTML pages synchronised to the video.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm kinda new to configuring wine in fedora. My issue is, after I upgraded to fedora 13 and after upgrading wine, my wine configuration gui and all the gui's of all *.exe applications that I was using started having abnormally large gui's with equally large buttons and small fonts. I have attached a screenshot of the wine config GUI as it appears on my screen. My current screen resolution is 1280X1024 and I'm using an integrated ATI chip (ATI Radeon x200 express) with the mesa-dri drivers for display.

Now, on the subject, I have a very small monitor 1024x576, this is causing difficulties with GIMP, and more, I found that GIMP is too much 'overfeatured' :-( . Searching on this forum , I found posts about 'Kolour' for KDE desktop. Maybe you can recommend a similar simple image editor for Gnome desktop? Crop/resize and pencil tool where i can pick up color and draw pixels will suffice most of the time.
Also I am using Firefox a lot and thought whether it possible to get a small feature , I will try to describe it: when the window is maximized I want to hide the window's header and menu, which would give me extra 40-50 pixels height to the contents of the window.
Yeah, I know I can hide navigation bar, but how then I will type the page location?
I am using a 17" VGA monitor with 1024x768 resolution. With some tweaking, I'm pretty satisfied with GNOME Shell and its look. The only exception is the font of the text below the icons in Activities. On my monitor with this resolution, the text is just too small. As far as I know, it's the smallest text anywhere in the GUI. This is kind of an accessibility issue for me, since I do have a sight problem

View 1 Replies View RelatedI wrote a java program that writes strings to a file. The strings contain foreign language characters. When I run the program in Windows, the output file shows the foreign characters. However, when I attempt the same operation in Linux, the output file shows a white question mark in a black background instead of the foreign characters. The same Linux system could display the foreign characters if I copy the output file from Windows to Linux. I tried to create the output file using gedit that my program would then add additional strings to and chose Unicode-32 for encoding but still the same problem.
What could I do to get the program to display the foreign language characters from output text file?
I am working on an application that will convert English text into equivalent Indian language text. Since Unicode is the standard, I will be using it. In most of the western languages each code-value directly refers to the glyph index and placing the code-values side by side will give the required display. This one to one mapping is not possible in Indian languages where rendering syllables is required rather than rendering just consonants and vowels. Many of the complex characters are made up by combining several unicode values.
My question here is: How Linux renders this Unicode text correctly? More specifically, what package is used? I believe in Windows they use Uniscribe for rendering.I believe there will be an operating system library for handling the text rendering. Or do I need to write my own rendering engine? How programs like Firefox, GEdit shows unicode text? Do they also have proprietary engines for correct rendering?
Say I want to write some of the more exotic Unicode characters to a file, what's the proper way to do it? when decimal integers are involved, we use %d for floating point we use %f and for hex we use %p.What's the equivalent marker for Unicode values that C understands?
