[opensuse-kde] MTA for KMail
by Vojtěch Zeisek 08 Apr '10

08 Apr '10

Hello, when I set new sending account in KMail, I can choose between (local) SMTP server and Sendmail. In some sites I have problems with SMTP (silly firewall and not very well configured mail servers...), so I would like to set sending of e-mails from my laptop's KMail using some MTA. I did not do any extra settings for Sendmail. When I set sending using Sendmail in KMail, the mail is sent without any error but usually not delivered... Any idea how to get it to work? Thanks in advance!

[opensuse-kde] KDE:KDE4:Community accidental libqt4 upgrade
by Will Stephenson 08 Apr '10

08 Apr '10

This is important. Newer libqt4 and associated packages were linked into KDE:KDE4:Community, causing a libqt4 upgrade to build and publish into all of that projects' repositories, including those that should keep the distro-provided versions of libqt4. This is a Bad Thing because KDE:KDE4:Community should only provide *applications*, not update the platform or the libraries. In addition, it should not contain apps that are already on the distribution; these are updated via KDE:Backports. For users: I have deleted the links so when the project has built and published, libqt4 will revert to the original versions. If you update using this project's repos *right now* you will get Qt 4.6.2 which may not be what you want. If so, please hold off updating for a few hours until things settle down. You do not want to see this in the zypper installation summary: The following packages are going to change vendor: libqt4 obs://build.opensuse.org/KDE -> obs://build.opensuse.org/KDE:KDE4:Community For packagers: If you maintain packages in KDE:KDE4:Community, please be aware of the consequences of your actions. We don't have a way to enforce the policies, which are * no platform (kde*4 modules, libqt4, kdesupport software) updates * no applications that are on the distribution * no beta or svn stuff - this goes in KDE:KDE4:Playground If you are not sure, ask or use osc submitrequest to KDE:KDE4:Community, someone with more experience can review your changes.

[opensuse-kde] Network Status Section - kio_sysinfo
by Roman Bysh 07 Apr '10

07 Apr '10

Network Status < Traditional Method with ifup > At this time, we see that Network Status shows: Unknown network status Shouldn't we see Online? The only time we see that the we are online is if the NetworkManager is enabled. Many users use the default setting such as my desktop. I suggest that rather than seeing Unknown network status, we see "You are online" Any thoughts?

[opensuse-kde] Factory KDE3 repo
by Felix Miata 07 Apr '10

This is now empty on the two mirrors I checked. Is this a temporary condition? If so, is there an ETA on population there? KDE4.4.x is still not a suitable replacement for KDE3 here. -- "Suppos [sic] a nation in some distant region, should take the Bible for their only law book, and every member should regulate his conduct by the precepts there exhibited. . . .

[opensuse-kde] Request to have sysinfo fixed for openSUSE 11.3
by Roman Bysh 06 Apr '10

06 Apr '10

Hi all, I am checking to see if sysinfo will be fixed by the time openSUSE 11.3 is released in July 2010. An update to KDE Platform Version 4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2) "release 231" was done on openSUSE 11.2 today. It is still broken. The Driver field shows "Unknown" rather than the Nvidia driver version number. OpenSUSE Milestone 4 sysinfo is also broken. Any thoughts? Roman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Sound On opensuse/kde,etc.
by Robert Williams 03 Apr '10

03 Apr '10

Hello All. Please pardon me for butting in. I'm a simple open/suse user since ver. 7.3 Whew! Let me say thanks for all I've learned here over the years! Suggestion: Maybe what's needed is a sound API or 'kernel'? Possible the devs could even lurk on the kernel list and see how those guys approach new ideas, testing, submits, and finally commits. Of course this would be much too late for 11.3, but with agreemen (on API, or some such), then planning, the entire linux community could get behind targeting their apps to the new API. At least sound would be in 1 camp so to speak, and app devs could again, structure their items toward the agreed standard. Just a suggestion, not saying anything negative about all the man hours that are put in. Only to do what got tux started in the first place: harrness resources! Take care. Have A Healthy, Prosperous Day! -----rob -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org
