[opensuse-kde] Kmail, automatic signature file
by C. Brouerius van Nidek 19 Feb '16

19 Feb '16

Since years I am using a automatic signature file in my kmail to sign me emails. Today I discovered that the automatic file did not show the actual use of my KDE. I assume that in the meantime this signature should have shown that I am using KDE5 so I had a look at the file. Changing the first KDE4 in KDE5 was no showstopper but the automatic read of kde='kde4-config -v |grep KDE' echo "" $kde into: kde='kde5-config -v |grep KDE' echo "" $kde did result in an empty space. Could somebody help me out with the right command sentence? original file: ------------- powered="(head -n 1 /etc/SuSE-release)" echo " Linux User 183145 using KDE4 Tumbleweed on a Pentium IV ," kernel='uname -r' echo " powered by $powered Kernel : $kernel" kde='kde4-config -v |grep KDE' echo "" $kde uptime --------------- -- Linux User 183145 using KDE5 Tumbleweed on a Pentium IV , powered by openSUSE 20160209 (x86_64) Kernel: 4.4.1-4.g4dac1be-default 14:29pm up 23:15, 3 users, load average: 0.66, 1.84, 2.44 $ #!/bin/bash -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Help is required by QTCurve maintainer to add the qtcurve-q5 window decoration to Plasma 5
by Roman Bysh 18 Feb '16

18 Feb '16

Dear List Mates, Users of QTCurve have found that the qtcurve window decoration is still missing from Plasma 5. This is probably due to changes in the API in KDE5.

Unfortunately you did not mention what version of operating system you are running. I had a short exchange at opensuse main mailing list and earned a lot of "pun" because I dared to say BT is broken in opensuse 13.2 [opensuse] Leap, KDE, Bluetooth: how to create a special keyboard shortcut for an inside application function was the title. You can read about it (if you can work through the "noise". I can tell you that: with 13.2 BT is broken for GSM phones and BT mices. Adapters are sometimes recognized after sleep or restart, but you will always end up with the device not pairing any more with the adapter. So the adapter does not wake up. Only workaround is to pull and plug the whole thing. In Leap with a "Hamlet" adapter and a Logitech BT mouse I did have it working (that induces my suspect that you are working with 13.2). Still, also in leap pairing of gsm phones will work on an off, the pairing function of BT4 seems not to work correctly and the one of BT3 seems better fitting. 2.1 seems to work normally. Try to look if you need to install the corresponding firmware from the repos. There was a broadcom firware rpm I recall. Good luck. P.S. as the posters on opensuse said that it is "known" I guess there is a bug report. If you find that there isn't any, well let me know I will open a bug. Or let me know about your report if you open one. --- Alle Postfächer an einem Ort.

[opensuse-kde] bootloader problem TW
by C. Brouerius van Nidek 14 Feb '16

14 Feb '16

As I have added some commands to the bootloader in Yast I found that it takes me up to 10 minutes to open the bootloader and for the saving of the new bootloader. CPU use 50% of my total of 4Gb. Y2base in Ksysguard says it it is waitingfor something to happen and gives as status 'sleeping' Have the feeling that something is broken on my system. I have already reinstalled all grub2 files but without any progress. Where should I start looking for an improvement of the bootloader? -- Linux User 183145 using KDE4 Tumbleweed on a Pentium IV , powered by openSUSE 20160209 (x86_64) Kernel: 4.4.1-4.g4dac1be-default KDE Development Platform: 4.14.16 10:49am up 2:31, 2 users, load average: 2.76, 2.06, 1.33 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] KDE Neon and opensuse
by Alin Marin Elena 13 Feb '16

13 Feb '16

Dear All, Having in mind the discussions appeared lately about KDE Neon... I think we shall have an official postion since we still ship kde as default de. My main concern is that bugs reported from anything else than neon will be considered non-kde. Already had this experience working in a kde project with some of the supporters of neon... for background: this is Bryan article http://www.networkworld.com/article/3032063/opensource-subnet/kdes-new-linu… a more interesting because of comments version https://plus.google.com/+BryanLunduke/posts/XfLoyBaxeea the kde-promo mailing list (this got censored to prevent the best coming out from neon supporters) [kde-promo] KDE Neon and how to handle this? an interesting link on reedit... In which the is kde neon a distro question is answered... by one of the neon people... https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/43tp4i/ is_kde_neon_a_distribution_or_not/ ten days ago seems the answer is: yes, and is indeed a fork/continuation of some other distro three days ago the answer seems to be yes and no... Regards, Alin -- Without Questions there are no Answers! ______________________________________________________________________ Dr. Alin Marin ELENA http://alin.elena.space/ ______________________________________________________________________
