Thanks for all the feedback. I've thought about running the classic view, but when Canonical make statements that they plan to go Unity-only in a very short time, it makes me think I may have to look at other options fairly soon anyway. Dianne |

As I hope you've gather from peoples replies you should not have any problem running Gramps on KDE. Remember to export to XML before a big change like that. You can still run Ubuntu with the familiar interface rather than Unity. Before giving your password you should see some options at the bottom of the screen. One of them lets you choose the desktop experience you want. If you prefer the old style just choose Ubuntu Classic before logging in.

At the time of the 3.2.6 release I created a standard installer (patched to fixed narrative web bug in 3.2.6 release), for whatever reason it does not appear on download page So I put it on my dropbox http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11340806/gramps-3.2.6-1.exe Note: On 64 bit operating system it installs to "Program Files (x86)" it's not a 64 bit aware installation. I've been reluctant to put the effort in to target 64 bit, as I think users are targeting the AIO version so they don't have to install all the dependencies themselves.

Gramps runs just fine on Kubuntu here. Just install it from the package manager (KPackageKit) and it will install all the dependencies for you. I have run Gramps on KDE for almost 10 years, and it runs fine. Most distros will run GTK and QT applications on KDE or Gnome without any problems. These just need to have certain libraries installed, and the package manager will automatically do this for you. HTH Peter |

My perfect setup is the latest gramps. I think the last number is 6. I used 11.04 ubuntu and together they work perfect. I am almost afraid to touch anything for fear I will mess it up! My machine is 6 years old. A Toshiba Satellite M35x-S311, 1.8 ghz, 1.5 GB and 100 GB hard drive. I have an older machine that is actually faster but can use less RAM so it is slower, but it can also run 11.04. Whatever the problems, Gramps is worth the effort. I do not have much luck with live distros either. Try installing 11.04 and the very latest Gramps.

Dianne, I've been using gramps for several years with KDE and haven't had any problems. The only thing you may notice is that gramps takes slightly longer to start up, especially the first time you run it after you log in. I use Debian Squeeze but I'm sure that it will run fine on Kubuntu. The best of luck, Cedric On Monday 30 May 2011 19:25:09 Dianne Reuby wrote: > I really don't like Unity very much, so I'm still running Ubuntu 10.10. > The 11.04 LiveCD doesn't run on my genealogy machine anyway, although I > had that problem with previous releases which run OK if installed.

(You don't need to try > and explain that to me - I'm just demonstrating my level of > incompetence!) Documentation was a little bit confused and out of date. Gnome reference is not important! 'Tips of day' has been improved (program) and Benny made updates on wiki documentation. http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gramps_3.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Getting_started Vs http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gramps_3.3_Wiki_Manual_-_Getting_started We just need GTK for running Gramps. We can have GTK under KDE, XFCE, etc ... (and qt under GNOME). PS: most linux distros with DVD installation provides 'gtk' and 'qt' Ubuntu made some declinaisons oriented to one, but both are available on ubuntu's repositories.

I really don't like Unity very much, so I'm still running Ubuntu 10.10. The 11.04 LiveCD doesn't run on my genealogy machine anyway, although I had that problem with previous releases which run OK if installed. I've been looking at other options, and the only program I use that I don't want to change is GRAMPS. I thought about Kubuntu, and have been trying the LiveCD - but what confuses me is I thought Kubuntu was Ubuntu with KDE instead of Gnome. The GRAMPS documentation talks about GRAMPS using GTK, which I though was part of Gnome - so how can it run on Kubuntu? (You don't need to try and explain that to me - I'm just demonstrating my level of incompetence!) So I'd be grateful for any feedback from other users on their distros. I've been looking through the documentation, but a lot of the tech stuff is beyond my ability! Thanks for any help, Dianne |

Doug, Thanks for answering. Your suggestion \s*[a-rt-zA-Z]*[s|ss]\w* gives 6511 persons out of 8937 If I change it to \s*[a-rt-zA-Z]*[s|ss]on it gives 3014 persons out of 8937, but I get only those ending in "son" or "sson" So what I need is a re that can find names with a specific beginning, which could be any possible male name followed by one or two "s" followed by "on" Example I would like to see only name pairs like: Bengtson Bengtsson or Carlson Carlsson in each filter search. /Peter > On 25/05/11 18:44, Peter Landgren wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I'm definitely not an expert on regular expressions, so I need some help: > > I would like to easily find people with names spelled with on or two "s": > > Like Nilson and Nilsson in the same person filter search. > > > > /Peter > > Does this work? > > \s*[a-rt-zA-Z]*[s|ss]\w* > > > Doug > > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > --- vRanger cuts backup time in half-while increasing security. > With the market-leading solution for virtual backup and recovery, > you get blazing-fast, flexible, and affordable data protection. > Download your free trial now. > http://p.sf.net/sfu/quest-d2dcopy1 > _______________________________________________ > Gramps-users mailing list > Gramps-users@... > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gramps-users |

Hi, I'm definitely not an expert on regular expressions, so I need some help: I would like to easily find people with names spelled with on or two "s": Like Nilson and Nilsson in the same person filter search. /Peter |

Of course, having said that, there are still things that could be done in Gramps to make it appear that images are under some centralized organizational system. Perhaps you aren't interested so much in having files in a database, but rather some particular feature? -Doug >> >> -- >> << MCT >> Michael C Tiernan. >> Is God a performance artist? >> http://www.linkedin.com/in/mtiernan >> >> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ >> vRanger cuts backup time in half-while increasing security. >> With the market-leading solution for virtual backup and recovery, >> you get blazing-fast, flexible, and affordable data protection. >> Download your free trial now. >> http://p.sf.net/sfu/quest-d2dcopy1 >> _______________________________________________ >> Gramps-users mailing list >> Gramps-users@... >> https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gramps-users >> > > > > -- > Gerald Britton > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > vRanger cuts backup time in half-while increasing security. > With the market-leading solution for virtual backup and recovery, > you get blazing-fast, flexible, and affordable data protection. > Download your free trial now. > http://p.sf.net/sfu/quest-d2dcopy1 > _______________________________________________ > Gramps-users mailing list > Gramps-users@... > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gramps-users > |

Actually it is not a technical problem to store objects in the current database (bsddb). It is flexible enough to do that just fine. However, a conscious design decision was taken some time ago to NOT do that. There are many reasons, including: 1. Files ystems typically do a much better job of storing arbitrary files than do databases in terms of disk space use, access methods, performance, security and robustness. 2. Many users will want to edit their images and documents, attach them to emails to send to friends and family, upload them to Facebook or other sites and generally use them detached from their genealogy studies. To support all that from *within* gramps would be a tremendous effort with little real gain. 3. If the database is lost or corrupted in some way, chances are that the user would lose any documents stored in it. In such a case, a user would look to the gramps team to retrieve their docs. I'm fairly certain the team doesn't want that job. > > -- > << MCT >> Michael C Tiernan. > Is God a performance artist? > http://www.linkedin.com/in/mtiernan > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > vRanger cuts backup time in half-while increasing security. > With the market-leading solution for virtual backup and recovery, > you get blazing-fast, flexible, and affordable data protection. > Download your free trial now. > http://p.sf.net/sfu/quest-d2dcopy1 > _______________________________________________ > Gramps-users mailing list > Gramps-users@... > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gramps-users > -- Gerald Britton |

Ok, this is a question that very easily could be taken as a unpleasant dig against the hard working developers of Gramps and I want to assure everyone that it's not intended as such. I'm simply curious if anyone has proposed incorporating something like sqlite into gramps so that an object, such as a document in any form, pdf, jpeg, text, etc., can be stored into the DB in it's native form and associated with a name, description, etc. without caring about the underlying OS? -- << MCT >> Michael C Tiernan.

Hi, > Do I just have to make a census event for each family member? I share one census event between all family members. But this works better if I set descriptions/address for different census events for the same census (source).

New to GRAMPS after using TMG for the past 8 years. I was able to put the census event in for the head of household and then attach each family member as a witness to that event. How do I show family members on census event in GRAMPS? Do I just have to make a census event for each family member? Thanks for the help! Some of it's magic! Some of it's tragic! But I've had a good life always! - Jimmy Buffett *Ida Louise* |
