Anybody Know Where kate Alert words are defined? ("NOTE", "FIXME", etc..)
by David C. Rankin 17 Nov '23

All, Before I start grepping sources, does anyone recall where the Alert words in kate that get syntax highlighting in red are listed? Like when you type in "NOTE" or "FIXME", kate automatically hightlights them with the Alert (1,2,3) level from Configure kate, Fonts & Colors, Syntax Highlighting. I know I've run across the list before, but cannot recall where. May have been in the source, but I want to say it was easier than that to add words? Any ideas let me know. -- David C.

kate Bug, Sessions -> Manage... -> Rename (doesn't)
by David C. Rankin 08 Nov '23

08 Nov '23

Also, While we are here, let's also document a Bug with kate Sessions -> Manage... -> Rename feature. It just doesn't work. I make extensive use of kate sessions, and probably have 20-40 at any one time with 5-30 files in each session. Sometimes I'll have a session I want to rename to basically branch a package or bit of code to make a set of changes, etc.. When you choose Sessions -> Manage... and highlight the sessions you want, "Rename" is an option on the right. If you choose Rename, the name dialog is presented and you can type in a new name and choose ok. The new name will appear in the session list, but if you note in the titlebar, the current session is not renamed and when you close the session, the new name is lost from the session-list. As a work-around you can use Session -> Save As, but it is curious the rename just fails. Priority (Low) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

[kde3][TW] impossible to have working KDM without xf86-input-libinput (or xf86-input-evdev or ...?)
by Felix Miata 08 Nov '23

Thus it seems in TW neither rpm is required by kdm or kdebase3, but without it, there is no keyboard or mouse available in KDM greeter. # inxi -S System: Host: fi965 Kernel: 6.5.9-1-default arch: x86_64 bits: 64 Desktop: KDE v: 3.5.10 Distro: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20231106 # grep input /var/log/zypp/history | grep move 2023-02-03 20:25:21|remove |xf86-input-keyboard|1.9.0-2.9|x86_64|| 2023-06-19 23:25:49|remove |xf86-input-mouse|1.9.5-1.1|x86_64|root@fi965| 2023-09-18 02:55:24|remove |xf86-input-evdev|2.10.6-3.11|x86_64|root@fi965| # zypper se -si input | grep OSS i+ | libinput-udev | package | 1.24.0-1.1 | x86_64 | OSS i | libinput10 | package | 1.24.0-1.1 | x86_64 | OSS i | libxcb-xinput0 | package | 1.16-1.1 | x86_64 | OSS i+ | xf86-input-libinput | package | 1.4.0-1.1 | x86_64 | OSS i | xinput | package | 1.6.4-1.3 | x86_64 | OSS # Above is working, but I just installed xf86-input-libinput after finding KDM unusable. On this host, I had removed xf86-input-evdev on the last upgrade cycle, apparently after that test session was done, so I only now noticed that must be what caused me to notice only now. Yet, it isn't/wasn't required either, and likely same for xf86-input-keyboard/xf86-input-mouse pair. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.

Same Sound Issue - With a twist after pipewire install.
by David C. Rankin 02 Nov '23

02 Nov '23

All, The .xsession-error and sound drop-out that occurs on Leap 15.4 kde3 has a slight twist after installing pipewire a month ago or so. Sound for the desktop (ksound theme, minimize, maximize, etc.. sounds) randomly just stop working. Other sounds like those from browser audio, etc.. continue to work. Once the kde sounds stop, they are dead until you restart the desktop. Checking xsession-errors there are a few messages I don't recognize after 15 years of looking at them... Maybe something that provides a clue for fixing?
