i'm looking to improve my server's motd, and I found a package called landscape-sysinfo, but when i tried to install it on my server, it was not foundMy server is running debian, so I'm assuming that the repository doesn't contain it..questions:* what repository might i need to add to install this?if i cannot use apt-get, is there another way to get the program?is there a way to get the motd to display system info when i log in with ssh other than landscape-sysinfo or update-motd ?
I am running Lucid x64 on an Gigabyte Mobo with an Intel E6500 CPU.I think this script pulls the temperature from /proc/acpi/thermal_zone. However, that directory is empty.I can get the cpu temp by using lm-sensors or by running this:
Code: cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/temp1_input Any ideas on how to get landscape-sysinfo to display the temperature
I have a virgin install of OS11.3/KDE4.41 I can find No info on how to modify the kio-sysinfo (sysinfo:/) page. On my system, I got a lot of partitions. (I triple boot 11.3, 11.2, &Win7) the sysinfo:/ page lists all partitions twice. once as a mount, and once as a device. Ideally it'd be one or the other. I'm not exactly adverse to going to the source. But, it's been a long time. know how to modify (Easily????) the info or layout of that page?
When I SSH into any of my Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS (x86) server installations I get TWO sysinfos. One for current time and another from April 20.

Last login: Sun May 1 08:45:53 2011 from 192.168.10.198 At first I only notices the 5 packages can be updated. But after runing apt-get update and upgrade as well as trying aptitude full-upgrade without any packages being updated I noticed the sysinfo actually showing two different days. Any idea on how to get rid of the second one?
I'm trying to change my screen orientation from landscape to portrait mode. Here's my system information. (I don't have an auto-generated xorg.conf file.)
Here's the error message I get when I try to use randr:
$ xrandr --orientation right X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 149 (RANDR) Minor opcode of failed request: 2 (RRSetScreenConfig) Serial number of failed request: 14 Current serial number in output stream: 14
I installed Sysinfo 0.7, unfortunately I set 'Section to start in' to System. As some of you probably already know, and I didn't, is that there's a bug in Sysinfo, that crashes the app, when System is selected[URL]... What this means, is that I can't run Sysinfo anymore, because it crashes on startup. Starting it as superuser works, but since I use Gnome Do, I would like to launch it w/o having to go through the terminal.
What I've tried: Did a complete removal from Synaptics, thinking this would delete settings as well. It didn't. Ran locate sysinfo from terminal, looking for a settings file. no luck
My question (finally): How to I delete og change the current settings in Sysinfo for my user?
I recently upgraded to 11.2 using the net install. When I try to access sysinfo:/ in Konqueror, it gives me nothing useful. No RAM, no hard disks, or any of that. All I do get is this:
file:/usr/share/kde4/apps/sysinfo/about/style.css My Computer Folders, Harddisks, Removable Devices, System Information and more...
My root partition is on the hard drive that is connected to a Rosewill RC-210 sata card if that has anything to do with it.
After installing Meerkat, some windows close (and take their apps along with them into oblivion E.g., when I run Applications -> System Tools -> Sysinfo, selecting the FIRST MENU OPTION, i.e., System, causes the app to close suddenly.
There are other small examples, in Firefox, e.g., but I'm not compiling a dossier here. Aside from the butt-ugly Ubuntu font, there don't seem to be (m)any major issues. Well, EXCEPT THAT MY WALLPAPERS have vanished, but I'm sure Q.A.
uninstall landscape on my Ubuntu 9.04 headless NAS because I do not use it. Running an uninstall simulation: "sudo aptitude -s remove landscape-client" produces: The following packages will be REMOVED:
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 24 to remove and 3 not upgraded. To me it seems that it want to uninstall support for acl among other things. But I don't want to remove support for acl as I use it on my files. And also should "hal" be removed?
I have a Calc spreadsheet that has 3 sheets. The first page is set for Portrait and the remaining pages are Landscape. Currently I am printing each page as a separate print job.I would like to print the entire Calc pages as one job where the printer prints the first page as portrait and the remaining pages as landscape without user intervention.
I do not see any command in the print dialog or in open office dialogs that tell the printer to change orientation. It seems that OpenOffice fails to tell the printer the page orientation. Is there any way to accomplish this. If a macro is required how do you write it and how is it executed?
I have hp and samsung printers HP L3000, HP P1320,P2035,P2015 and Samsung ML750. Now when i like to print a landscape doc from libre office and i select landscape orientation but still the report comes in portrait format.even if i go to cups n change printing orientation from auto to landscape I still not get a landscape report.Another problem is that in windows I selected the row in excel to print then printed using fit to one page.But in suse I dont see that option
Trying to set up a printer for the 1st time using CUPS's GUI system-config-printer. Trying to set up a printer that will print in landscape mode, 132 characaters per line, and 66 lines per page.Got it to print in landscape mode but the line wraps at 108 characters.What settings do I need to get it not to wrap. Current settings are:
im using cups filter 'texttops', to generate postscript file, then I;m using ghostscript to create pdf file. The problem is, that file generated from texttops don't contain landscape orientation instructions. How can I force ghostscript to do that. Here is the command Im using:
recently i have upgraded my centos 5.0 or 5.1 installation using 'yum upgrade' to centos 5.4 since the upgrade I am unable to print any PDF files as landscape, they get printed but do not seem to be rotated and are aligned a little bit less than when using portrait (test using the GUI and LP)
when printing a text file in portrait and landscape everything goes well tested on labelprinter Brother QL-580N and tested on Samsung SCX-5530FN Laserprinter both using the network I already tried 'yum downgrade cups' this works but with no success
Having selected 'Landscape', when printing using 'File|Print' in KWrite, the text is presented in landscape but formatted to a size of approximately 105mm x 590mm (bottom half of a landscape page and stretched to twice the width, printing only the left hand side). I have a similar issue with some other programs too, but not Open Office.Having configured 'cupsd.conf' to log in debug mode it would seem that the problem I'm getting may be to do with applications that output in 'application/pdf' format, because in the CUPS log for Job 57 line 479 seems to indicate that KWrite has output a PDF file:
Code:[Job 57] File of type application/pdf queued by "root". Then at line 490 there's a line that seems to indicate no landscape, even though this was selected through the user interface of KWrite (and works in Open Office)!:Code:[Job 57] argv[5]="document-name=4b69b8710002c media=A4 nolandscape job-uuid=urn:uuid:5c6fae2f-ad2f-3364-5f04-bb5500d1eabc" I would have attached the various 'log' and 'conf' files but I'm new to this and I just can't find a way to get attachments enabled for my login!I've spent hours on this, if anyone can give me any pointers I would be most grateful, however I am no Linux system administrator I'm afraid.Current system: openSUSE 11.2 x64, Kernel 2.6.31.8, CUPS 1.3.11, gutenprint 5.2.4, KWrite 4.3.1 release 6, KDE 4.3.1.1Old system (that worked with this printer): openSUSE 11.1 x32, gutenprint 5.2.2

I have just discovered that I can't print text from libreoffice writer/calc if the layout is set to landscape. The letters seems to have been stretched and printed over each other. If I print the same document in kword/kspread everything is printed as it should be. I have generated a pdf of the document and printed from okular/acroread, even then it's not printed correctly. Although it looks ok in okular/acroread. What else that can be seen is that when it's wrongly printed the printout is printed in the opposite direction compared to when it's printed correctly. I.e. the tail comes first on the paper so to say. Where should I begin to search for faults?
I am trying to print a schematic from KPDF (Suse 11.2) onto an 11x17 sheet of paper. Regardless of the printer settings I use or which driver I choose it won't rotate the image and fill the page. I have the same problem with kiCAD. If I use Okular it prints part of the drawing in one corner at the 8.5x11 scale.
I want to print Landscape and I would normally use Code: lp -ddestination -olandscape However this isn't working, it could be another problem (I am passing to a windows print spooler) but I would like to know if I have got the command right.
I use openoffice writer 2.3.9 and when I paste a picture on a document, I can't find any option to get the portrait format. With a right mouse click I get a all lot of options (especially under "picture") but nothing about the format.
We are running RHEL 5.1 on the 2.6.18.53 kernel. We are attempting to pass print jobs to a Lexmark printer with the lp -o landscape command. The print jobs continue to print "portrait". Is anyone aware of this issue and is there a work-around to get these print jobs to print in landscape format?
I am creating a document using Latex and I am using the existing article class "documentclass[twocolumn]{article}" The paper needs to have a two column format, but I have figures that I would like to include in a landscape orientation, possibly on a new page, (they appear too small even if I have them span either 1 or both columns).
Ubuntu server 10.04:I had webmin installed on my server, but I found it was using too many resources for what it offered, so I went ahead and uninstalled it. I'm not sure exactly which version it was, but it was the most recent version a month ago. I ran the uninstaller which ships with webmin.Well, now everyday my root account gets the following email:
From root@DOMAIN.com Mon Oct 18 00:42:01 2010 Return-Path: <root@DOMAIN.com> Date: Mon, 18 Oct 2010 00:42:01 -0400
I have an Ubuntu 11.04 server with lighttpd installed as my web server. It was working fine, but now when I restart it it gives me the following error...
"can't bind to port: 80 Address already in use"
Is there a way for me to find out what is using port 80 in it's place?
Having had an old machine running SMEServer for some time, I've decided it doesn't suit my needs and I've gone the Ubuntu Server 10.04 root. I'm having trouble connecting to a HP LaserJet 5P attached to the parallel port of the server. I had no trouble connecting to it when the server was running SMEServer, however, as this distro is aimed at Windows clients, the printer was configured as a Samba share.
In the new 10.04 configuration, I do not have Samba installed as I have no need for it. I'm exclusively Linux based (Ubuntu 10.04 desktop). Surely I do not have to install Samba in order to print?
Where to find SSH Server Configuration Howto for Dummies? To Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Server? Must work like FTP/SFTP and user accounts must be in MySQL. Just for File Transfer and user can open only his / her own ./ where is public_html in root..
