|

Hi,
Three quick questions (hope they fit here):
* I cannot get Firefox (or Epiphany) to display PDF files. They just automatically download them to my home dir. And I HAVE set the "automatic action" for PDF files to "Open with xpdf" (and the bundled PDF viewer). Both these external programs work fine separatelly, I just can't get Firefox to make use of them.
* I cannot get Open Office to make use of my Swedish keyboard, with the special Swedish characters. It works fine throughout the rest of my Gentoo system. I have set the OO language to Swedish, obviously.
* Finally, in Firefox, the "Add engines" function of the "quick search bar" top tight don't work. I find other engines, but they are not added when I click them.
Thanks for your time,
WP |
