[opensuse-kde3] kdelibs fail to build with libcups (1.6.1-2) -> any patches yet?

Ilya, I have run into problems building kdebase on the new libcups (1.6.1-2). Have you tried with this library yet? Using it, you will get a string of errors along the lines of: [ 60%] Building CXX object kdeprint/cups/CMakeFiles/kdeprint_cups-module.dir/ipprequest.cpp.o cd /build/src/build/kdeprint/cups && /usr/bin/c++ -Dkdeprint_cups_module_EXPORTS -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -D_KDEPRINT_COMPILE -march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -D_REENTRANT -include tqt.h -fPIC -I/opt/qt3/include -I/usr/include/tqt -I/build/src/build/kdeprint/cups -I/build/src/build -I/build/src/tdelibs/kdeprint/cups -I/build/src/build/kdecore -I/build/src/tdelibs -I/build/src/tdelibs/dcop -I/build/src/tdelibs/kdecore -I/build/src/tdelibs/kdecore/network -I/build/src/tdelibs/kdeui -I/build/src/tdelibs/kio -I/build/src/tdelibs/kio/kio -I/build/src/tdelibs/kio/kfile -I/build/src/tdelibs/kdeprint -I/build/src/tdelibs/kdeprint/management -o CMakeFiles/kdeprint_cups-module.dir/ipprequest.cpp.o -c /build/src/tdelibs/kdeprint/cups/ipprequest.cpp In file included from /build/src/tdelibs/kdeprint/cups/ipprequest.cpp:20:0: /build/src/tdelibs/kdeprint/cups/ipprequest.h: In member function 'ipp_attribute_t* IppRequest::first()': /build/src/tdelibs/kdeprint/cups/ipprequest.h:182:30: error: invalid use of incomplete type 'ipp_t {aka struct _ipp_s}' In file included from /build/src/tdelibs/kdeprint/cups/ipprequest.h:28:0, from /build/src/tdelibs/kdeprint/cups/ipprequest.cpp:20: /usr/include/cups/ipp.h:365:16: error: forward declaration of 'ipp_t {aka struct _ipp_s}' <snip> In file included from /build/src/tdelibs/kdeprint/cups/ipprequest.h:28:0, from /build/src/tdelibs/kdeprint/cups/ipprequest.cpp:20: /usr/include/cups/ipp.h:366:16: error: forward declaration of 'ipp_attribute_t {aka struct _ipp_attribute_s}' /build/src/tdelibs/kdeprint/cups/ipprequest.cpp:69:77: error: invalid use of incomplete type 'ipp_attribute_t {aka struct _ipp_attribute_s}' <snip> <many more> I have no patch yet.

[opensuse-kde3] How to script kde3 ?

Is there a way to script kde3 dialogs ? Instead of a real person clicking with his mouse, a script could fill forms, click OK, Cancel... Dsant -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde3] Confirm kwrite update window when Remove spaces on save option set
by David C. Rankin 09 Aug '12

09 Aug '12

All, I have noticed that kwrite does not behave as expected when Settings -> Configure Editor -> Open/Save -> [x] 'Remove trailing spaces' is set. When set, trailing spaces ARE removed on 'save' (from the file saved to disk), but the current editor window is NOT updated to show the removal (the spaces are still present in what you are looking at on the screen). If you close the current file and reopen it (or F5 - Reload), then the removed spaces disappear, but there is nothing that automates or forces a reload to update the current window. The help says 'The editor will automatically eliminate extra spaces at the ends of lines of text while loading/saving the file.' That indicates to me that spaces will be removed on either load or save, and to me, that implies the change should be apparent to the user. However, the spaces are only removed from what is written to disk without updating the display (current line buffers - I guess...) If current behavior is correct, then I think the setting dialog should read: [x] Remove trailing spaces on save - Reload (F5) to update current window and the shift+f1 help should read: 'The editor will automatically eliminate trailing spaces (extra spaces at the ends of lines of text) while saving the file to disk. A reload (F5) is required to update the current editor window.' An alternative would be to force a reload after a save, but I do not like the distraction of the flicker caused by the re-display of the text during reload. I think that is probably why it was coded this way to begin with -- to eliminate the flash on save caused by the redisplay. My vote is to simply update the option and the 'Shift+F1' help to make it clear that spaces are only removed from what is written to disk and are not removed from the current editor window. Thoughts? (this would go in the feature requests priority box :) Not a big deal, but before I forgot about it, I thought I would post it. -- David C.

[opensuse-kde3] 11.4 knemo Traffic Plotter, causes Xorg to take 100% CPU
by David C. Rankin 08 Aug '12

08 Aug '12

Ilya, All, I ran knemo traffic plotter today on 11.4 and Xorg CPU use jumped to 100% and the box was dragged down to a crawl. (radeonhd driver) Can anyone else verify this behavior? This is new. It worked fine a month or two ago. I can't figure out what happened. It is repeatable on my box. Just start top and then start the traffic plotter and watch Xorg go to 100%. Close traffic plotter and the problem goes away -- strange... -- David C.

[opensuse-kde3] 11.4 - jack_client_new: deprecated (plays funny sound every minute or so)
by David C. Rankin 07 Aug '12

07 Aug '12

Ilya, Something has tripped a timeout error to play on the 11.4 desktop every minute or two. When the event occurs, the following is logged to ~/.xession-errors: jack_client_new: deprecated Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory Cannot connect to server socket jack server is not running or cannot be started akode: Guessed format: xiph KNotify::playTimeout I don't know what is calling jack_client_new, but it seems that some event started trying to call jack, and not it is stuck in an infinite loop. How can I figure out what is prompting the event and disable it? (restarting is one options, but I want to isolate what is causing it) Thanks. -- David C.

[opensuse-kde3] kde3 and future releases, tumbleweed?
by Dexter Filmore 02 Aug '12

02 Aug '12

Hi, I mainly switched to SuSE as it is one of the last dists that officially package kde3. Question is: is it going to stay that way?

[opensuse-kde3] How do I setup Display Manager and Window Manager to allow switching KDE3 and KDE4?
by Robert Smits 01 Aug '12

01 Aug '12

As we've all learned form those marvellous Install KDE3.5 tutorials, it's easy to set up display manager and windows manger to get my OpenSuse12.1 KDE3 install to boot to the kDE3 desktop. I'd like to be able to switch between the two desktops, though. I seem to remember older OpenSuse desktops that would let you choose which desktop booted from a application you clicked on in the boot process. Can anyone describe what settings I need in display manager and window manager to do this? Is it still feasible? -- Bob Smits <bob(a)rsmits.ca> "Microsoft is not the answer.
