by Raymond Wooninck 09 Dec '10

09 Dec '10

== Old Action Items == * No old Action Items. == Status Report == * wstephenson has preparing 4.6beta2 release and testing/fixing PIM 4.6 * wstephenson also packaged koffice 2.3rc1 with titti's help * wstephenson has also been working on KNM's solid::control refactoring and integrating patches from pardus * tittiatcoke fixed ktorrent to work with the new KDE powermanagement. * javier is working on having an openSUSE KDE Live CD, Iberian edition == Getting rid of http://help.opensuse.org/kde4 == * OpenSUSE guides might be more useful, but are not translated in all languages. The community might be able to help with the translation, but where to store the translations. wstephenson will check with the i18n team what they think. Also it would be good to have a link to the guides from the openSUSE greeter. == Updating kde-apps.org live cd listings == * It has already been reported that the links were broken. A good way has to be found where we either have static links to a download folder or to have static filenames. This has also to be discussed with Beineri, as that he is the owner of the kde-apps.org entry. == Q&A == * wstephenson is quite busy and is worried that he is not doing enough with the team. The team however feels the opposite and is impressed with how much is happening. The only thing noticeable was that the biweekly meetings were sometimes skipped without notice. * wstephenson brings up the item to skim openfate entries. Agreement is that this will be done tomorrow (Friday 10th) with everybody that is available on IRC. wstephenson will coordinate. * wstephenson indicates that he is considering to ship kdepim 4.4 as well as kdepim 4.6. This based on the current status of kdepim 4.6 with regards to migration from kmail1 to kmail2, responsiveness of kmail2 and the issues around virtuoso. == Action Items == * wstephenson to contact i18n team with regards to openSUSE guides * Javier to contact Beineri with regards to the live cd listings on kde-apps. * wstephenson to lead the skimming through the openfate entries. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Leave-logout-restart-shutdown behaviour
by Hans de Faber 09 Dec '10

09 Dec '10

using: OS: Linux 2.6.34.7-0.5-desktop x86_64 System: openSUSE 11.3 (x86_64) KDE: 4.5.4 (KDE 4.5.4) "release 3" Somewhere in the the traject 11.3 release and the config above I've lost the leave menu. 1. On my desktop when rightclicking desktop-leave I get the default action as configured in the sessionmanager and logout setting (session management-System settings). That's correct, but I want the selection menu "logout restart shutdown" How do I get this menu back ? Maybe somebody knows,thanks, Hans -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Current state of IMAP aware desktop search/integration in KDE4
by Hans-Peter Jansen 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

Hi everyone, any pointer anybody to what the current state of affairs is related to IMAP aware indexing/desktop integration? When it comes to so called enterprise features, these things are badly missing: IMAP indexing and desktop integration. Nearly every sane enterprise setup uses IMAP for company mails, but last time I looked, everybody was talking about semantic search capabilities, ignoring the fact, that it's much more important to be able to do a simple search for a certain correspondent or keyword, might it contained an {Libre,Open}Office document or some mail, or even some doc attachment of that mail. Any progress in this area? The next thing, that is missing is being able to drag mails into the filesystem (creating _links_ to the IMAP store), in order to organize certain correspondence in a simple and logic way. Do we really need to copy stuff around, and even be forced to invent some filename, loosing all the context similar to what the unspeakable Outlook does? While all this might be seen purely as commercial usage patterns, this would be useful for many scenarios, when IMAP is part of the game. Thanks for any hints, Pete -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] SUSEgreeter and documentation
by Javier Llorente 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

Hello list-mates, Do you think it would be a good idea to replace the link to help.opensuse.org/kde4 with a link to a local opensuse-kdequick_en.pdf in SUSEgreeter? I think it would be more useful. Would you add a link to /use/share/doc/manual in Konqueror or somewhere else? Cheers, -- Javier Llorente

[opensuse-kde] Evaluating KDE Features in openFATE
by Andreas Jaeger 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

Hi openSUSE KDE team, As blogged a couple of days ago ( http://news.opensuse.org/2010/11/30/feature-handling-for-opensuse-reworked/ ), we need some people that evaluate features for our distribution. How does your team like to evaluate features? We really like to have you evaluate your features... Btw. from Tom: All features for 11.4 in state 'new' and tag kde: https://features.opensuse.org/query/run?search_string=&tag=kde&search_produ… These should be evaluated by you and set to either rejected, duplicate or marketplace. Marketplace means that this is a sane feature that is up for graps and searching for a developer. There are not many features to be reviewed right now, because the screening (unconfirmed->new, set tags) is not reaaly up to speed yet. So you might also want to check the unconfirmed requests for 11.4: https://features.opensuse.org/query/run?search_string=&tag=&search_products… I also added the tags as hermes parameters, so you can create notifications and feeds from features reaching your state.

[opensuse-kde] plasma-widget-menubar and patched Qt for openSUSE?
by Markus Slopianka 05 Dec '10

05 Dec '10

Hi there. Could anyone please be so kind to provide "plasma-widget-menubar" and the necessary Qt patches for openSUSE? I tried to install the patched Qt from Kubuntu via 'alien' but that didn't work out. Ideally it would also make it into openSUSE 11.4 but a personal OBS project would be fine, too. (I tried learning OBS myself but still can't understand it.) The Qt patch is small and has already been accepted for Qt 4.8. Aurélien Gâteau maintains the patch also for Qt 4.7. Everything needed is listed here: http://agateau.wordpress.com/2010/07/05/getting-menus-out-of-application-wi… Thanks.

[opensuse-kde] minimum phonon videoplayer woes
by Hans-Peter Jansen 05 Dec '10

05 Dec '10

Hi, I'm trying to get the simplest of all phonon video players going (based on K:D:F), but while it shows the first frame just fine, and even scales it on window resize, there's no progress whatsoever (and just viewing the starting frame tends to get boring pretty quickly ;) ). It might be, that I'm doing something obviously wrong, but I have no idea what that can be.. (Please bear with me, my C/C++ brain is pretty rusty, I usually hack Python/PyQt nowadays). It would be nice, if a few guys could check this out: Put the three files in one folder, and run: qmake && make Locate some *.mp4, *.flv, or any other video format, that is supported, and run ./phonon videofile Does it play the video? To find out, which formats should be supported, check out the "Supported MIME Types" list from the Qt phonon capabilities example. My package versions in use: libqt4-4.7.1-145.1 {,lib}phonon4-4.4.3-52.2 phonon-backend-gstreamer-0_10-4.4.3-57.5 The latter two are from home:frispete:branches:KDE:Distro:Factory, where I try to get the phonon-backend-xine package working for 11.1, in order to be able to use it with the PyQt/phonon bindings. The (Py)Qt musicplayer example operates fine, btw. Pete

[opensuse-kde] KDE factory for 11.1, repo broken?
by Christoph Walzer 04 Dec '10

04 Dec '10

Hi, one more try. Seems the KDE factory repository for 11.1 (that is http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Distro:/Factory/openSUSE_11.…) is broken for a few days or so. Namely libstrigi-0.7.3-41.3-x86_64 does not provide libstreamanalyzer.so.0()(64bit), which affects dozens of other packages. Seems just to be a matter of the provides-part of the RPM (contains libstreamanalyzer.so.0.7(), but no libstreamanalyzer.so.0() anymore), but i do not want to fiddle about. Another broken thing is phonon-4.4.3-52.1-x86_64: "nothing provides phonon-backend >=4.4.3 needed by phonon-4-4-3-52.1.x86_64". Appropriate backend packages are missing. Did i miss something? Anybody? Wrong list? Thanx in advance. C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] opensuse 11.3+KDE4+Acer Aspire One
by Alvin Beach 04 Dec '10

04 Dec '10

Hello all, Does anyone have experience installing openSUSE 11.3 with KDE4 (4.5.3)? This isn't specifically a KDE help email. But I use opensuse and KDE exclusively on my desktop machines and I am thinking of purchasing the Acer Aspire One D255 netbook for a family member. So, anyone willing to share their experience with installing/using openSUSE and KDE4 on this netbook would be much appreciated! Thank you, Alvin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org
