Comment on Some xmgrace tips by just a chick

Thanks for the tips, specially the one by luic. I installed the extra fonts and they work like a charm.
-using mac where the fonts' location is: /Applications/Grace.app/Contents/Resources/grace/fonts/

For the person asking for a way to put ~ on top of sigma: it can be done in grace:
\f{Symbol}s\S\h{-0.7}~
Grace has these commands \h and \v that shift the next font horizontally and vertically. It solves the problem (not very practical but..)

Comment on Installing DSL on an old (16Mb RAM) laptop by louic

Thanks Robert for sharing this information.

Comment on Installing DSL on an old (16Mb RAM) laptop by Robert Kousbroek

Robert Kousbroek — Thu, 17 Jan 2013 20:55:30 +0000

I have installed DSL on a compaq armada 1120t for my 5 year old kid.

Specs: 24 MB RAM, no CD-Drive, no USB-drive, 1 GB harddrive
Pentium 70-100 Mhz

It works ok. ;-)

I made 4 partitions:
2x FAT32 (for Win95); 1x Linux SWAP and 1x EXT2 filesystem

I needed to use the Poormans installation, since I don't have USB or cdrom to boot. Just copied the CD (harddrive attached to another computer) to the harddrive (KNOPPIX folder and BOOT folder)
Now with the bootfloppy, you can boot from floppy and futher boot from HD.

My bootoptions are: DSL minimal mem=24M lowram

Regards,

Robert Kousbroek

Comment on Compiling and installing MolMol under Linux by louic

Hi Mijiddorj, If I am not mistaken you are missing the motif development files. You need several development files (source code) to compile molmol. In Ubuntu, these packages are called:

libmotif-dev
x11proto-print-dev
libxpm-dev libxt-dev

I am not sure about the names in Arch linux, but probably something very similar. You should be able to install them with your package manager.

Comment on Turn off auto complete in libreoffice or openoffice calc and writer by Dennis

Thank you so much for this tip. The automatic functions in Open Office Apps are not usually helpful and more often not only annoying but outright disruptive. This auto-complete feature was a major problem and I'm so thankful it is now disabled.

This feature should be disabled by default. LO is great, but some configurations by default. like this, are desperate and annoying. Thanks, you save my morning!
