gtk 2.4.0
by lowell 02 Aug '05

02 Aug '05

Folks: I'd like to try Inkscape (oss version if Illustrator) on my RedHat 9 machine, but the rpm bails out with "Need gtk 2"; I wonder how many things will break if I try to install gtk2 ( I also wonder how many things will have to go on before the tool kit will install. Does anybody have experience with this particular upgrade; I'm sure many have been through rpm hell of one sort or another...

Sending mail using smtp commands via telnet
by Rob Becker 01 Aug '05

01 Aug '05

I'm working on testing that mail is delivered properly from outside our network, through our various virus and spam filters and to the appropriate email server. I would like to telnet into one of our mail gateways and send a message from there destined to a new internal server. I know how to telnet into the mail server, but I'm not finding the appropriate commands to actually send a message once I'm connected. Can anyone point me in the right direction. My googling skills have failed me on this one since I can't seem to hit the magic phrase necessary to find a resource on this topic. Any help, pointers, references greatly appreciate. Thanks. Rob

And why are you using telnet instead of ssh?

scanners
by Jack 31 Jul '05

31 Jul '05

Greetings Luggites, I have recently acquired a collection of pictures and negatives. Some are 70+ years old. I'm looking to scan in the entire collection and store on cd/dvd. The pictures will all fit on a normal flatbed. However the negatives are almost every shape and size other than 35mm. I'm in the process of searching for info now, but maybe someone here can guide me in the right direction. Does there exist a scanner that will run under Linux than can scan negatives other than 35mm? Also what would be the least damaging scanner? THese negatives and pictures have sentimental value. Thanks, Brian __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?

job hunters
by Daniel Siemens 30 Jul '05

30 Jul '05

Please email me your resumes over to Dan_Siemens(a)ariusa.com. I have a position opening up for a Linux ninja in the near future. The position involves what should be a lot of time on the road doing installations of game systems and supporting of Linux servers. Estimate that travel stints could go out for 3 weeks straight at times for international installs. Most trips out should be less than a week. Must not have criminal record, i.e. the international trips and crossing borders means that you don't want to be refused entry into foreign countries for a DUI or Drug charge. The required skills will be general knowledge of Linux, TCP/IP switches, routers and wireless products and infrastructure in general. Must know PC hardware, some bash and perl would be a plus. FYI Work is in the eatertainment industry which means a lot of support occurs Friday night, Saturday and Sunday. I hope this did not violate any posting rules. Thanks.

Can you do apt for rpm? Then apt-get install inkscape. -----Original Message----- From: kclug-bounces(a)kclug.org [mailto:kclug-bounces@kclug.org] On Behalf Of lowell Sent: Thursday, July 28, 2005 8:55 PM To: kclug(a)kclug.org Subject: gtk 2.4.0 Folks: I'd like to try Inkscape (oss version if Illustrator) on my RedHat 9 machine, but the rpm bails out with "Need gtk 2"; I wonder how many things will break if I try to install gtk2 ( I also wonder how many things will have to go on before the tool kit will install.
