Cameo 4 send to sihluitte inkscape extension
Hi,
I use a cameo 4 cutter machine, I found an extension to Inkscape, send to silhouette, which is pretty awesome,but the scaling is a problem, I managed to create an A4 template with registration marks that work 99 % perfectly for print and cut, but the issue is I can't solve the scaling issue when cutting vinyl, cutting becomes bigger than the one in the design, is there any solution for that, I use Inkscape 1.2, in fedora 36.
Thanks in Advanced

Global Dynamics of the Demise of Microsoft Windows (Now Down to 27%)
The situation of Windows' "share" (however subjective any measure would be) is grim; despite a "new" release of Windows, as recently as several months ago, "market share" decreases fast

recompiling GTK & Qt programs with centre-justified menus?
In '0s I came up with a several/couple graphical user interface (GUI) ideas/suggestions KDE implemented, and if I recall correctly, Windows copied some (when MS was influenced by KDE4.) One was menus could be moved to middle, which they didn't use, but lately Windows uses (start menu, don't know about programs' menus like 'File Edit View Help,' etc.)
GUIs aren't books so there's no reason menus should be left-justified rather than centre-justified. If I'm drawing in GIMP on 4K screen, having to go that far is the worst, and still bad even with programs snapped to each side of the screen... it was bad in 1990s - '0s even with 1600x1200, and as anticipated, got much worse (even worse moving all the way from the other side of another screen (my PC has 1600x1200, '1080p' drawing pad/LCD, 4K.))
Has anyone ever recompiled GTK & Qt programs (on Slackware or UNIX) with centre-justified menus, and how difficult might that be--is it worth it?
What's worse than left-justified menus is no menus, like a menu button like Google has... which has worst design, and their designers (and all copycats, which is most) apparently didn't take or pay attention in computer science GUI class where one is taught the fewer 'clicks' a GUI requires, the more usable/efficient it is (so standard/classic menus are superior to menu button (absolute worst) in that aspect, and if anything there should be more menus, or some combination of those with a 'ribbon' like MS started in '0s (though I dislike 'ribbons') and which is on UNIX/GNU/Linux software like WPS office (available on SlackBuilds.org and maybe SlackOnly.com.))

system menu: which *.desktop files are relevant?
Debian bookworm
Fluxbox
FBPanel
Good afternoon
Short: I had duplicate entries in my system menu and found the reason in additional *.desktop files in a sub-directory to /usr/share.
Longer: If the *.desktop files in /usr/share/applications create entries in the system menu, and others in different sub-directories do the same, how do I know, which directories and files are taken into account?
The SoftMaker Office-suite – commercial and freeware – used to create such duplicate entries, years ago. I had not seen it happen since, but today found again two entries for each of the Freeoffice-components (screen shot). The desktop-files which were responsible were in /usr/share/applications, as expected, but also in /usr/share/freeoffice2021/mime.
I can duplicate other *.desktop files and put them into sub-directories of /usr/share, without noticing changes in the system menu...
My search-criteria may be ill-chosen, but I cannot find information on the Web. What am I missing?

XFCE changes display size after HDMI reconnect
Hi, guys, I hope someone can help. Since the release of Slackware 15.0 I have been trying to use XFCE after many years with Fluxbox. I am liking XFCE 4.16 so far except for this odd behavior, which never happened in Fluxbox. I never tried XFCE in Slackware 14.2 so I don't know if this would have benn happening then.
For the monitor I am using a Toshiba 19 inch HDTV. It is capable of 1920x1080 resolution, but for a computer desktop it is much too small without a lot of font and icon resizing. I normally use 1280x720, it has always been fine in Fluxbox, and is fine in XFCE when first logging in. My video card is a GTX 750Ti using the proprietary 390.147 driver.
The odd thing is anytime the monitor is powered off or disconnected (such as an HDMI selector box), upon reconnection the display is automatically changed to 1920x1080 on top of 1280x720 with everything enlarged so that it pans around with the mouse. I wonder if it is triggering events such as sleep and wakeup.
When I look at the Xorg.0.log immediately after this happens I see this line at the end
Code: NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "HDMI-0: nvidia-auto-select @1280x720 +0+0 {ViewPortIn=1280x720, ViewPortOut=1920x1032+0+0}" This is the gpu and monitor sections of my xorg.conf

I've searched here a little but not really sure what to search for. In Google I found a few things, only this reddit that sounds similar, but is unanswered. I found where some have solved other resolution problems by setting Option "PreferredMode" in xorg.conf. I tried that but it doesn't work for me.
Is there something to add to xorg.conf, or an nvidia setting, to stop the nvidia-auto-select; or to force it to auto-select my preferred mode? In XFCE's Display settings, Advanced tab, I have made sure that identifying and configuring new displays are off. I even toggled them on and back off to save the off setting.

Any recommendations for improving performance on Slackware current?
Hello, I'm currently running Slackware current on my gaming machine, it has a Ryzen 7 3500U and AMD Picasso GPU. I'm using the mesa and vulkan drivers along with the 5.18 kernel. What more could be done to squeeze a bit more performance out of my machine, a custom kernel, messing with Xorg configs?

I need to configure Realtek RTL8185 in Slackware15
Hello
I use my Realtek RTL8185 wireless network card with Slackware 14.2 with no problem.
However, I would like to migrate to Slackware15, but the System freezes every time I try to use the network. I need to physically disconnect the network card if I want the System to work again...
Could someone explain to me if this card will work in Slackware15?
I believe that I and a multitude of users were not able to migrate precisely for this reason...
After all, there are more current boards but the charm of Slackware has always been to deliver the best that works on old machines too!
I am immensely grateful for any guidance.
Thanks!
And sorry for my English translation... I speak Portuguese and don't speak the British language.

access rights and root owner not possible to change with chown
suddenly some folders of my ntfs partition - I use 2 hds: Win and Linux - changed from the original owner to root.
I tried some options to change, also with chown and chmod. No success.
My notebook is Lenovo Ideapad S330, 8 G RAM,
SSD with Linux Mint Cinnamon 20.3
and SATA, 3 ntfs partitions:
C=Win10-updated,
D=Data,
E=Data.
I learned that the issue could be happened after I had problem with shutdown of Win before, but I didn't find a solution. Win is working correctly now after I repaired it.
I mount the ntfs partitions with start of Linux and their location is in /mnt/followed by some letters and numbers, and then the different folders.
I will be happy if somebody knows the solution.

Can pvresize handle adding space to the front (start) of the partition.
The title says it all.
If I resize a disk partition by adding space at the beginning of a partition instead of the end will pvresize handle this?
Does the partition editor I use to do this have any impact on this?
Is gparted clever enough to do this safely? For example moving the existing data to the start of the new partition so that the offsets are not affected, as it does with normal filesystem partitions.
I can think of many potential pitfalls. I wonder if it would be easier to add the space as a new pv.
Any comments?

Firefox shows generic wayland icon on KDE Plasma
Hi all.
I am running latest KDE Plasma / Full Wayland on -current and have noticed that after launching, Firefox shows only the Generic Wayland Icon on the taskbar, the window title and within the application switcher.
Thunderbird shows the correct icon in the taskbar, but also the generic icon in the window title and the Alt+Tab switcher.
I have tried the Flatpak version of Firefox as well as the binaries provided by the project. The binaries of Firefox show the correct icon in the taskbar but the rest is the same.
Do you experience similar behavior? Is there a solution for that? Is this related to Plasma or to the Mozilla project?
Greetings
Lioh

I have tried the Flatpak version of Firefox as well as the binaries provided by the project. The binaries of Firefox show the correct icon in the taskbar but the rest is the same.
Do you experience similar behavior? Is there a solution for that? Is this related to Plasma or to the Mozilla project?
Greetings

Software/hardware keyboard problem.
Hi,
I have a strange problem that is defeating me.
I'd like to get comments before I junk the computer.
The problematic computer is an AMD64 pc with 8Gb memory.
I recently installed Slackware 15.
It's been working well till today.
Now, when booting, at the login prompt, the keyboard is unresponsive.
Great frustration but maybe I can just reinstall Slackware.
But no. When the DVD I used for the installation gets to the initial login prompt, again the keyboard is unresponsive.
But the keyboard itself is not dead; it functions quite properly in the bios setup.
So I tried a Debian Buster live DVD. And that works!!
I may just reinstall Debian on it.
Any ideas?

SSSD is offline
Dears,
I have configured the KRB5 and SSSD to authenticate with AD Windows Server 2012R2, joining RHEL8 machine (test) to the AD is done, however, domain users are not getting retrieved and I always receive ": no such user" with id command and Global catalogue seems down (it's working from the windows server side). Below is my configuration:
[root@test ~]# realm join --user vmadmin WIN-JGT3N0TES8J-CA.hadoop.com
