Hello, on my system 10.3 the last KMail 5.7 - 5.8 is crashing by activating the Workgroup Function with Imap ? Is this a known bug ? -- mit freundlichen Grüssen / best Regards Günther J.

[opensuse-kde] Experimental kdepim/trunk Packages for KDE 4.0
by Stephan Binner 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

Hello, for the adventurous testers I have created an experimental repository named KDE:KDE4:UNSTABLE:KDEPIM4.1onKDE4.0 which builds kdepim/trunk snapshot against the KDE 4.0.x Libraries (as built in the KDE:KDE4:STABLE:Desktop repository). Unfortunately kdepim/trunk already requires a Qt 4.4 devel and there are some incompatibilities so some packages have to be rebuilt for openSUSE 10.2 and 10.3, and you will notice minor optical faults (eg text of tabs gets always painted in white color, if it really disturbs you switch to Plastique style). I tested KMail on Factory yesterday and it made a solid impression to me. On the other side KOrganizer tends to crash at start-up with current snapshot. You should really try these packages only with test-data currently or have really good backups for any case!!!

Re: [opensuse-kde] kde4 configurability

The settings don't stick and the next time > you have to do it again. Hi Bob, The text and background colors can be changed via Settings -> Edit Current Profile -> Appearance tab. There are a number of preset color schemes available, including the Black text / White background seen in KDE 3. The text size setting is on the same tab. When you say "No way to change it", I take it that the settings were not where you expected to find them. Could you explain where you tried to look for the settings and didn't find them? I'm not sure whether this problem is a flaw in the UI or just that things have been re-arranged from where they were in KDE 3. The Ctrl++ / Ctrl-- shortcuts for changing text size were intended for temporary text size changes as in web browsers like Firefox. If it is more intuitive for people then it can be made permanent. There are a couple of bug reports open related to this. Regards, Robert. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] kde4 configurability
by Bob S 01 Mar '08

01 Mar '08

Hello KDE4 testers. I have 4.01 installed on 10.3 64 bit. I keep upgrading packages hoping that some configurability problems on the desktop will be resolved. Hmmm...maybe that is the design? It will be less configurable than kde3?? Ex: I cannot create more than the two virtual desktops. Cannot change the wallpaper on one of the two (to distinguish it from the other) without the other being changed. Cannot hide the taskbar (dashboard??) Cannot add apps to the "dashboard". What is that "thingy" up in the right hand corner that zooms in and out and hides the dashboard? Lots of stuff let out of Desktop configuration and othe little niggling things that make kde3.5 so pleasant and easy to use. Is this it? For kde4?? or is a lot of iot going to "catch up" to 3.5. If not, it certainly is not for me. Maybe it is just me and I don't know how to manipulate it properly. If that is true, where do I learn.

Hallo Leute, durch irgendeinen blöden Kunstgriff ist mir bei KDE4.01 das Startsymbol abhanden gekommen.

[opensuse-kde] openSuse 10.3 + xrandr
by Martin Koller 27 Feb '08

27 Feb '08

Hi list, in KDE 3.5.8 (44.1) for openSuse 10.3, when I open kcontrol -> peripherals -> display, I can not change the resolution of the screen anymore. Instead I get a message like "your X server uses xrandr >= 1.2 which has no configuration options yet" ... Why that ? When I compile/install kdebase/kcontrol/randr from current KDE svn (3.5 branch), I get again the usual randr possibilities like changing resolution etc. Why is this missing in the Suse compilation ? -- Best regards/Schöne Grüße Martin () ascii ribbon campaign - against html mail /\ - against microsoft attachments --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Konqueror KDE4(.0.1) not working at all
by Alex 26 Feb '08

26 Feb '08

I just wondered, as I read nowhere about this problem: Konqeror (KDE4) has been practically unusable for me for several weeks, using the factory repo. It cannot render _any web page at_ all and always times out with an "unknown error". Firefox and Konqueror (KDE3) work flawlessly. Also, the scan for Netscape plugins (on 64bit) always fails at 30%. Am I the only one having this problems??? I mean, I am one of the old-fashioned KDE users for whom Konqueror is a central element of KDE, and this central element has been unusable for quite some time. And nobody else seems to have a problem?! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Rendering quirks in taskbar panel KDE 4.0.1
by Kevin Valko 26 Feb '08

26 Feb '08

Hi all, For the last two or three updates from /KDE4:/STABLE:/, my taskbar panel seems to be somewhat corrupted. I've attached a clipped portion from a screenshot, you can see that the wallpaper shows through on the left and right. Since taking that screenshot, it also appears in the bottom, but I won't bother creating a new screenshot. As well, the "gradient" rendering on top of the taskbar is a little coarser than I remember. The panel looked proper (?) from the time I started using 4.0.0, nice, shiny, and full width and depth. It just seems that over the last couple of updates it has borked. I ignored it at first, figuring it would be one of those things that corrected itself on the next update. Has anyone else seen this? Should I file this as an openSUSE bug or KDE? Only reason I'm asking is that I know openSUSE backported some of the plasma patches to 4.0.1 from trunk, so I'm not sure if the KDE devs would accept it as a bug report. Cheers, KV

[opensuse-kde] X-SuSE-translate question
by Martin Koller 18 Feb '08

Hi all, I stumbled over the problem that on a german openSuse 10.3 setup, the poupmenu on any directory view to create a new folder still mentions the _english_ name "Folder" whereby everywhere else (konqueror menus, properties, etc.) the german translation "Ordner" is used. Checking for the reason, I found inside the "inode/directory.desktop" file that most of the translations are commented with #SUSE-Overwrite Comment and the file also contains the line X-SuSE-translate=true My question: what is the reason for removing translations ? -- Best regards/Schöne Grüße Martin () ascii ribbon campaign - against html mail /\ - against microsoft attachments --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Coexistence of KDE3 and KDE4 packages
by Alex 18 Feb '08

18 Feb '08

I take it that KDE4 is the default desktop since 11.0a2. But this does not yet seem to include all core packages. E.g. KDM4 still seems not be able to replace its KDE3 equivalent. And because of dependancy problems you still cannot install kdebase4-ksysguardd, because this would require the deinstallation of the KDE3 version, which in turn is required by kdebase3, which is, however, obviously needed by the KDE3 packages, e.g. KDM. Am I doing something wrong here, or is this work-in-progress? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] mouse cursor stuck in corner of desktop
by Jon Greene 16 Feb '08

16 Feb '08

Hi all, I am hoping that someone here can help me with a most annoying problem that has developed on my system. I am running openSuSE 10.3 standard install with no updates/patches. The system has been running just fine for many months. I tried installing my old video capture card (Winfast TV2000 XP Expert) to try recording on linux. I was able to get video but no sound (I found out that this is a known problem). After installing this card, my mouse started acting strangely. I could scroll down a page just fine but when I scrolled up with the wheel, it would select text in the page. By going into the mouse setup area, I found that when I scrolled up, the action it was executing was a double-click plus scrolling up. I then removed the capture card since it wasn't working properly anyway figuring that the mouse would go back to normal - no such luck. The mouse is impossible to use now. It "sticks" down in the lower left corner and just by trying to move it, all kinds of things start happening. Many different windows have opened and shut very quickly. My bottom bar is a mess now. I have tried using different mice, different ports, two mice at once, nothing has worked. I even tried booting up with no mouse attached and then plugged one in after it finished booting - same result. I have tried searching google for help and keep coming up empty. If anyone has a suggestion, I am all ears. If I can't figure it out soon, I'm going to have to do a clean install and migrate my data over but would prefer not to do that. I am assuming it is a driver issue but I have not even been able to find out how to remove the current one and install it again. My main experience is in windows with some experience in linux but not at this level.

[opensuse-kde] State of KDE 4.0.1. in factory - bug reports or not?
by Alex 15 Feb '08

15 Feb '08

For a short time I had the impression that KDE 4.0.1 would slowly get usably and lose that awkward "beta" feeling. However, the last few days the buggy behaviour is mounting. And I don't really know whether this is related to KDE, the openSUSE factory as a whole, or my installation. So I don't know whether and where to file bug reports. I tried both the standard Factory packages and the RPMs from KDE-Stable repo (BTW - what is the exact difference between these two KDE package sources? The errors are the same). A short list of the bugs of my KDE4 sessions, as I currently remember them: 1. Konqueror4: Has simply been unable to render any web for me page for weeks. Sometimes I get a simple web page, e.g. Google, displayed. But 99,9% Konqui4 times out with an "unknown error". Konqueror/KDE3 and Firefox work fine. 2. Desktop icons (from my, thanks to the user orientation of som KDE developpers, seemingls "deprecated" ~/Desktop-drawer) sometimes "multiply" over and over again with every new start (hundreds of entries in plasmarc). Mouse-over-effects of the desktop icons don't fade out once the mouse is no longer over them. 3. keditbookmarks doesn't display bookmarks, only the bookmark drawers. 4. Switching to a new user session results in the session of the previous user being locked - and it cannot be unlocked, the password is no longer recognized. 5. Konsole and Dolphin cannot be started at all (crash window) - be it by start menu, tray icon or keyboard shortcut. Strange enough, most of the time I can start these apps e.g. from a KDE3-Konsole window.... 6. Plasma crashes pretty often. Sometimes ALT+F2 still works and I can restart "plasma", sometimes not. 7. Very slow. On an athon X2 4400+ and a Geforce 6200, everything takes just a bit too long, it simply feels sluggish. E.g. the "show desktop" plasmoid in the panel takes a few seconds until it shows the desktop. I don't even try to activate desktop effects (though the proprietary Nvidia driver should have all the necessary features activated automatically), as they render the desktop unusable. 8. Both KDE3 and KDE4 seem to feel responsible for removable media in a KDE4 session. 9. Sometimes ~/.kde4 is best removed if KDE4 has messed itself completely up... That's as far as I remember currently, there are many more small things. Question: Bugs, expected behaviour, configuration problem of my setup? Thanks! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] No JPEG support in krita from KDE:KDE4:STABLE:Extra-Apps
by Herbert Graeber 15 Feb '08

15 Feb '08

Krita's JPEG support is currently missing in the koffice-krita package from the KDE:KDE4:STABLE:Extra-Apps repository because of a libexiv2 package version < 0.16. (Shall such issues be reported via bugzilla or are the these packages in such an early stage, that buzilla is not the proper way?)

[opensuse-kde] Call for a Community Pattern Maintainer
by Will Stephenson 14 Feb '08

14 Feb '08

Hi all We're looking for someone special. I know what you're thinking, it's Valentine's day and we're all sat in an openSUSE IRC meeting with nobody to Kuddle, but that's not what I was meant. Actually, the openSUSE KDE team are looking for a Community Pattern Maintainer to take responsibility for a package pattern that represents the best of the KDE community software in the Build Service. It's a great way to get involved with shaping the distro, so, if you're addicted to finding the latest and greatest KDE software and don't mind editing a bit of XML to share it with the rest of teh world, let us know!

[opensuse-kde] [10.3][KDE-3.5.8] kdebase3-runtime
by Michael Schueller 14 Feb '08

14 Feb '08

Hello List Since one of the latest Upgrades of KDE3 on openSUSE-10.3, KDE use a package called kdebase3-runtime. Since this Package is in use my Screensaver does not start after x/min. If i open the control field of the Screensaver, and set the time again, it works. But only for this session. Next time i log into a KDE Session again the problem is back. Does anybody else notice the same Prob ?

[opensuse-kde] KDE4 Quirks: Corrupted panel icons and system-tray launching: Anyone else experiencing?
by Kevin Valko 12 Feb '08

12 Feb '08

Hi all, Couple of quirks I've come across in KDE 4.0.1 (OS 10.3), wondering if anyone else is experiencing because I'm trying to determine where to send the bug report, can't find anything existing on BKO or openSUSE bugzilla. 1) My panel has problems rendering icons for non-KDE3/4 applications. When running apps, if they are not KDE3/4 applications (ie. Yast, virtualbox) the icon in the panel will be corrupted (although the app description text will be correct). Sometimes it will be gibberish, sometimes it be another app icon, sometimes it will be a distorted system tray icon, etc. Couldn't see anything about this related to plasma on BKO. My initial uninformed thought was that maybe this has something to do with the widespread use of SVG in KDE4, but then it works for KDE3 apps, so I'm confused. 2) Using kmail/KDE3, when the app is reduced to the system tray, I can't "relaunch" it. If I try to, it is immediately minimized to my task bar, and even clicking on it won't produce a window. If I right click, it shows that "minimize" is selected as an option, and I must manually select "maximize", which opens it maximized, and then I must manually use the un-maximize button (is there a name for it?) to make it a rational size on my desktop. Have only run into this with KMail/KDE3. Other KDE3 systray'd apps seem to work fine when I click on them (ie. kpowersave) when it comes to opening a window. If anyone has experienced these and has a solution, I'd be grateful, but otherwise I guess I should open a bug report, just wondering if I'm "alone" here?

[opensuse-kde] Mouse button switch
by Audrius 11 Feb '08

11 Feb '08

Hi, I use mouse by left hand. How can I switch mouse buttons in 10.3? In 10.2 I simply switched buttons in KDE Control center. Now in 10.3 I can not do that. I can not switch mouse buttons even in YAST... Sometimes I give my NB with suse 10.3 and KDE to my wife and then I would like to switch buttons back... Could someone point me how can I accomplish that? Thank you.

[opensuse-kde] Icon Naming Spec
by JP Rosevear 11 Feb '08

11 Feb '08

Hey KDE team, Beagle uses "system-search" as the icon in many of its .desktop files. system-search is an icon in the icon naming spec: http://standards.freedesktop.org/icon-naming-spec/icon-naming-spec-latest.h… Currently rpmlint gives an error because icon-naming-spec icons are not white listed (and beagle doesn't BuildRequires tango although i guess it could) so we do a hack to copy an icon beagle-system-search into the pixmap dir and alter the .desktop files. Question is, with KDE4 for can I rely on conformance with the icon-naming-spec in the themes and then see about getting rpmlint changed and dropping the hack? -JP -- JP Rosevear <jpr(a)novell.com> Novell, Inc. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] KDE 4.0.1 and Default Desktop Icons
by Kevin Valko 03 Feb '08

03 Feb '08

Noticed that the new 4.0.1 packages include suse extensions, nice touch. But the desktop icons that are now displayed keep re-appearing between sessions, despite my best efforts to make them disappear from my desktop. I'm deleting them individually with the little plasma "X", but they keep returning. Am I doing something wrong, is this a plasma glitch, or a problem with the suse add-on ?

[opensuse-kde] Kmail and separate encodinbgs for different folders.
by Rikard Johnels 01 Feb '08

01 Feb '08

Hello all! I have a minor problem with KMail. I have one sender that is using a different encoding than the rest of my mail. I cant understand which one tho. If i set decoding to Auto, half of the mail is ok. (Swedish characters) But some isn't. If i set it to UTF-8 none is Western-1250 and cp850 yields same result as Auto where can i see what encoding is used? The follow up problem is: Can i set encoding for a separate folder individually? So if i sort these problematic mails into that foder the viewq will see it as they are suposed. Or do i have to run the mail thru some kind of filter to correct it first? -- /Rikard ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- email : rikard.j(a)rikjoh.com web : http://www.rikjoh.com mob: : +46 (0)763 19 76 25 ------------------------ Public PGP fingerprint ---------------------------- < 15 28 DF 78 67 98 B2 16 1F D3 FD C5 59 D4 B6 78 46 1C EE 56 >
