konqueror after upgrade
by ovidiu pascui 04 Apr '03

04 Apr '03

Hi I was using KDE 3.1.1 on my SuSE 8.1 box installed from the KDE.org and everything was OK. This morning I decided to upgrade the KDE packages to those available on SuSE's homepage. The installation (rpm -Fvh *.rpm) was OK, but now konqueror does not display anymore some web pages like www.suse.de. I remember that I had this problem also before using the packages from the KDE.org site, could somebody give me a hint to what is the problem here? Some bugs in SuSE's packages? Did someone else noticed this?

[suse-kde] New Kmail and subfolder problem
by Franklin Maurer 03 Apr '03

03 Apr '03

Last week(?) there was a problem with the kdenetwork3-mail 3.1.1-35 and the fact that new folders could only belong to the "top level". I just ran apt-get / synaptic and there is a -47 version which seems to have fixed the problem. Just thought I'd bring it to your attention. Kmail is the first app I've opened since this mini kde upgrade so I'm not sure if any new problems will rear their ugly heads, but I'll let you know if I find any. -- Franklin Maurer Using SuSE 8.1

Mouse Speed
by Markus Tacker 03 Apr '03

03 Apr '03

Hello List, the mouse driver shipping with Suse 8.1 has only the option to set a fixed mouse speed. Especially with large resolutions this is a drawback. On some programs I need per pixel precise mouse resolution (f.e. Gimp). Is there an alternative mouse driver with mouse acceleration, known from windows? -- Sincerly yours Markus Tacker

kaddressbook - kontact
by David Herman 03 Apr '03

03 Apr '03

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am happily using Kontact now but have one disappointment. Kaddressbook works fine inside Kontact but Unfortunately it fails if I try to run it by itself. Korganizer and Kmail don't seem to have this problem (although you can't run Kmail if Kontact is already running, no surprise there.) Without running kontact I tried from the shell: # kaddressbook and recieved the error "kaddressbook: error while loading shared libraries: libkaddressbookpart.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" If I try from an icon I get "KDEInit could not launch '/opt/kde3/bin/kaddressbook'" Is this a tradeoff or is there a workaround?

KDE 3.1.1 update woes
by O'Smith 03 Apr '03

03 Apr '03

Hi All, Well I have to say "me too" on this update as things just did not go well when using the SuSE supplied KDE files. First of all my kmail went blank and would not display any mails. Fixed that by going to the settings and selecting Use Custom fonts. Chose a font that looked good and displayed good, so all is well there. I did notice while playing with QT, going back to the previous version, that the font display is much better in the new version 3.1.2! It does a very good job of working with the fonts. Can't do sub-folders any longer with kmail as David pointed out, although not a big problem for me, so probably won't miss it. Next little bug I ran into was Konqueror and displaying some sites. Can't display any of SuSE sites any longer as the text is just not there! Same problem with say http://www.cnnsi.com and http://packman.links2linux.de/, some graphics, some text, but mostly blank. What is that all about? KDevelop is really kinda flakey right now too as Steven pointed out and complained about. Makes it difficult to do any programming with that now. KWord gives sig11 when trying to do a print preview. Noatun won't play a mpeg movie clip. Some of these, while being bothersome, don't affect much in day to day operation, but others are proving to be a big PITA! Anyone else experiencing the problem with Konq on those sites? What about KWord crashing? I think Steven has found a few things to do about KDevelop, but his is still not playing nice with the system. Thoughts, suggestions or fixes anyone?

kdegraphics3
by matthias-wieser＠t-online.de 02 Apr '03

Hi, sometimes Konqueror 3.1 crashes so I'm trying to upgrade to KDE 3.11. I use Suse 8.1. ...but I can't find kdegraphics3.rpm on Suse's Ftp. http://www.suse.de/de/private/download/linuks/i386/update_for_8_1/extra.html links for kdegraphics3 to ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_8.1/applicati… which does not exist. At the same page there is an entry for kdegraphics3-3D. The description of kdegraphics3-3D and the description inside the kdegraphics3-3D rpm is simply wrong. It's Kpovmodeller and not "base libs for KDE graphics applications": "kdegraphics3-3D 3.1.1: Basisbibliotheken für KDE Grafikprogramme. Die Programme können in folgenden Paketen gefunden werden: kdegraphics3-fax kdegraphics3-kamera kdegraphics3-postscript kdegraphics3-scan kdegraphics3-tex kdegraphics3-extra" Where (and when) can I find kdegraphics3.rpm. I don't want to downgrade to Suse 8.0 only to get kdegraphics3.rpm. regards, Matthias

The file disappeared at the SuSe site, don't ask me why.
