Hi,
I have installed Debian Sarge (current stable) and
thereby OpenOffice was also installed (I didn't
install it explicitly).

Hi,
I've just installed some Type 1 fonts with type1inst
and mkfontdir. It seems they are recognized by X11.
But when I start OpenOffice (version 1.1.3 I think,
the one installed with current Sarge stable), I can't
see these fonts. Doesn't OpenOffice/StarOffice use
the fonts, installed on X11, i.
Hi,
some times ago I wrote about the "ugly fonts" on my

First of all: It were not just the fonts, but everything
(icons, borders, ...).
It seems the nv-driver delivered with Sarge has a
bug at this resolution and a depth of 24. When I
set DefaultDepth to 16 all was

Hi,
my notebook, Acer Aspire 1363 WLMi, 15,4" WXGA Display with
a native resolution of 1280x800, has a horrible look.
It looks very good, when working with non native resolutions
of e. g. 1024x768 and 1152x768 (i. e. when it must

There is IMHO an even better solution, a real driver

Hello!
My Debian (Sarge) currently boots to a graphical login
screen. How can I configure which login screen will
appear (text mode or graphic with display manager)?
In other distributions this may be set by changing
the default runlevel to 3, but this doesn't work with
Debian.
Thank you in adva
