[opensuse] After kde43 updates today - 'prnt screen' launches Gnome Screenshot --Huh??
KDE4 devs, Always in kde4 on 11.0, 'prtscn' has brought up ksnapshot to capture the desktop and 'alt+prtscn' has brought up ksnapshot to capture the current window. After the updates tonight from the kde43 repositories, both 'prtscn' and 'alt+prtscn' bring up gnome screenshot instead of ksnapshot for some reason and there are gnome processes running when I have only had kde3 & kde4 sessions since starting the laptop this afternoon. What's up? The processes I was surprised to find running with kde4 were: 10566 ? S 0:00 /usr/lib/GConf/2/gconfd-2 13 10567 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/bin/gnome-power-manager 10585 ? S 0:00 /usr/lib64/gvfs/gvfsd 10590 ? Ssl 0:00 /usr/lib64/gvfs//gvfs-fuse-daemon /home/david/.gvfs Powersaved is also running, but I don't know if it conflicts with the gnome-power-manager above?? 3539 ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/powersaved -d -f /var/run/acpid.socket -v 3 It looks like the 11.0 gnome install is autostarting apps for kde-sessions -- that's not good. Each wm/desktop is supposed to wait for their turn, not hog every session. What is the most likely location I can delete files from to prevent the gnome-app autostarts? Also, is that a bug that needs reporting? If so where? Novell since suse packaged the gnome that is misbehaving, or, kde.org for failing to prevent or check for conflicting apps? Let me know your thoughts on this one? FYI - In kde3, you still get ksnapshot when you hit prtscn... -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

The screenshot issue was caused because compiz for 11.0 has not been updated in build service to handle systems with both Gnome and KDE installed. When compiz is run under gnome and then run again under kde4, since there is no separate compiz-kde4, the "Enable Gnome Compatibility" remains enabled in ccsm causing the gnome extensions to be activated in KDE4. I guess whoever does the compiz updates in build service no longer provides any updates for 11.0. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

I don't use these packages, so forgive me if I'm way off, but there does exist a package called compiz-kde4 in http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/XGL/openSUSE_11.0/ which I thought was the compiz buildservice repo. Also I don't think KDE has ever stopped gnome apps from autostarting ... it's the app or user responsibility to decide whether they are DE specific or not. Sometimes you might need a gnome app under KDE and vice versa. For example when you add a KDE autostart app in System Settings -> Advanced -> Autostart, there is an option to have it only start in KDE ... but it is off by default.
