Tally 5.4 on linux
by Derwyn Dpenha 08 Feb '05

08 Feb '05

> I am trying to run Tally 5.4 using Wine. Every time I execute wine > Wtally.exe, I receive watcom error message. Has anybody managed to run Tally > 5.4 using? Please share your experience. The problem with a regestered copy of tally is that it has a hardware lock that is probably the reason you get the watcom error. If it's a accounting package you are looking for linux provides a whole range of software including the one developed by kenneth http://avsap.sourceforge.net Try using "accounting package on linux" on google it throws up a bunch of stuff u could user to get the same job done Derwyn

(Apache HTTP Server is an open source HTTP web server for Unix platforms -- BSD, Linux, and UNIX systems -- and Microsoft Windows, and other platforms. Apache features highly configurable error messages, DBMS-based authentication databases, and content negotiation, it is also supported by several GUIs which permit easier, more intuitive configuration of the server. See http://gui.apache.org/ The Apache HTTP Server is developed and maintained by an open community of developers under the auspices of the Apache Software Foundation.) In addition, they are to have Robert Adkins and Ms Alolita Sharma from Technetra, California, Ms Danese Cooper from Sun MicroSystems, MySQL founder David Axmark, and others join their event. (MySQL is a multithreaded, multi-user, SQL (Structured Query Language) relational database server or RDBMS. MySQL is available either under the GNU General Public License or under other licenses when the GPL is inapplicable to the intended use.

Samsung printer problem
by Sujeet Bhatt 07 Feb '05

07 Feb '05

I have a Samsung printer (ML-1520) on a Fedora 3 system. It was autodetected as a ML-1510 and was working fine until I made the mistake of installing Samsung's own drivers. The printer no more works under Linux (it's fine under Win). Worse, I am unable to run printconf or printconf-gui to rectify matters. Uninstalling the Samsung software hasn't helped. Here's what printconf-gui says when I try to run it from the command line: root@fedora util]# printconf-gui Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/printconf-gui", line 7, in ? import queueTree File "/usr/share/printconf/util/queueTree.py", line 1236, in ? queueTree() File "/usr/share/printconf/util/queueTree.py", line 138, in __init__ if cups_import.import_needed (): File "/usr/share/printconf/util/cups_import.py", line 200, in import_needed which = which_spooler () File "/usr/share/printconf/util/cups_import.py", line 191, in which_spooler which = l.split ('.')[1].strip () IndexError: list index out of range Google has turned up negative. Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance, Sujeet -- A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse! -- Wm. Shakespeare, "Henry VI" * TagZilla 0.057 * http://tagzilla.mozdev.org
