[opensuse-kde] KDE Branding HOWTO
by Will Stephenson 06 Jun '11

06 Jun '11

I've been finishing the branding work for 11.3 this week, and have been documenting how to do it as I go. The first draft is attached. Comments? If I was hit by a bus tomorrow, could you do openSUSE 11.4 branding? (Lubos doesn't need to answer that ;)).

[opensuse-kde] bluedevil and bluetooth in kde 4.6
by Divan Santana 03 Jan '11

03 Jan '11

Hi All, I noticed bluetooth is not working on my laptop once using kde 4.6. I noticed kbluetooth from the kde45 repo is still installed and remember reading about bluedevil. I correctly removed kbluetooth and installed bluedevil from KDE:Factory(11.3) however bluez is not set as a dependency so it obviously wouldn't work. Can the above be corrected, ie bluez added as a dependency for bluedevil? Perhaps also kbluetooth should be removed and bluedevil installed when one swiches from kde45 to kde46? Once I installed bluez is seems to be able to do basic bluetooth scanning via bluedevil-wizard however I haven't yet found a replacement bluetooth icon for the system tray(although I'm still looking). Not sure if there are any other missing dependencies. old ref link for some dependencies: http://www.afiestas.org/bluedevil-the-new-kde-bluetooth-stack-is-here/ -- Divan Santana -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] packaging details for KUP
by Alin Marin Elena 28 Dec '10

28 Dec '10

Dear All, Lately i took the liberty to package some apps in KUP... Yesterday I had the unhappy experience that one of the sr I did to be rejected... I will not enter into the reasons why this particular package was rejected... The situation is that this package had srs accpected by two different reviewers previously. All I did was simple update the source files for it. What I like to be clarified are 1) versioning policy in the .spec file 2) naming of the source files, should they include version number? 3) quantity of comments that should be added in the changelog? I understand that personally we may have strong views on each point... but the community decision should prevail when a package sr is reviewd. regards, Alin -- I force myself to contradict myself in order to avoid conforming to my own taste. -- Marcel Duchamp Without Questions there are no Answers! _____________________________________________________________________ Alin Marin ELENA Advanced Molecular Simulation Research Laboratory School of Physics, University College Dublin ---- Ardionsamblú Móilíneach Saotharlann Taighde Scoil na Fisice, An Coláiste Ollscoile, Baile Átha Cliath ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Address: Room 318, UCD Engineering and Material Science Centre University College Dublin Belfield, Dublin 4, Ireland ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://alin.elenaworld.net alin.elena(a)ucdconnect.ie, alinm.elena(a)gmail.com ______________________________________________________________________ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Sound config problem after upgrading to KDE 4.6 RC1 (4.5.90)
by C 27 Dec '10

27 Dec '10

A minor sound issue popped up after I updated to KDE 4.6 RC1 (4.5.90). I have a soundblaster card and speakers for my main/default sound device, and a Logitech USB wireless headset. My usual configuration is to use the soundbalster as the default device for all system sounds, and the headset only for Skype, Ekiga etc. After updating to KDE 4.6 RC1 and restarting, KDE complained that it had an extra sound device in its config, and wanted to remove it. I initially clicked No, and poked around in the Phonon config to see what was up. It appears that the name that the Soundblaster was known by has changed from a fairly detailed name to simply "default". I tested a bit, and "default" seemed to work OK.. and since I don't care what it's called as long as it works, I set up "default" as the primary device for all sound options in the Phonon setup. This appears to work in most cases. Sound from a video played in a browser is directed to the speakers, sound from multimedia is directed to the speakers.. games.. to the speakers... Skype works in the headset... and so on. So everything seems to be "right" except... for KDE system sounds... the "bink" sounds you get on errors for example. These are only played through the USB headset.... and I cannot figure out why. Any tips, suggestions, ideas here? Something changed in the move from the Beta to RC1 that changed some sound config for KDE somewhere... but.... where to look to fix it is the big question. (I poked the bugs on kde.org, but didn't find anything relevant) C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Nepomuk / Strigi taskbar icon
by Bruno Friedmann 24 Dec '10

24 Dec '10

[opensuse-kde] no plasma clocks after upgrade to SC:/kdepim46
by phanisvara das 23 Dec '10

23 Dec '10

after switching packages to SC:/kdepim46 all my plasma clocks (fuzzy, digital, analog) stopped working, with the error message: "Could not find requested component: clock". looking at /var/log/zypp/history, i see that only kdepim stuff got updated, plus quite a few perl libraries from OSS, apparently as dependencies of the new kdepim libs. i don't understand why this should affect plasma (widget) clocks, unless those use those perl libraries, too, and are not happy with the new choices. writing to the kde-devel mailing list, i got the following reply: > You're probably missing the libclock for plasma. It's a distro problem, not a > plasma one nor a kontact one. > Please enquire with your distribution, i'm sure this has been caused by switching to the SC:/kdepim46 repo, and that whoever prepared those repos would like to know about that. but i'm puzzled where to report this as a bug: plasma, kontact, or what? -- phani. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] KDEPIM 4.6 packages for KDE:Distro:Factory
by Raymond Wooninck 23 Dec '10

23 Dec '10

Dear List mates, As you have read already, KDE 4.6 will be released without the KDEPIM 4.6 packages. openSUSE already changed the KDEPIM packages in the KDE:Distro:Factory repo to the KDEPIM 4.4.8/4.4.9 packages. However I know that some of you would like to continue with the KDEPIM 4.6 packages. For all of you, we have created the repository: KDE:Unstable:SC:kdepim46. This repository contains the KDEPIM 4.6 packages build against KDE:Distro:Factory. The KDEPIM 4.6 packages consists out of akonadi-runtime, kdepimlibs4, kdepim4 and kdepim4-runtime. On a weekly basis I will update these packages to a newer version from the KDEPIM 4.6 branch. The repo has just been published with the kdepim 4.6 status of Sunday evening. Enjoy!!

[opensuse-kde] google translatoid update + bug
by gumb＠linuxmail.org 22 Dec '10

22 Dec '10

I'm using KDE 4.5.4 from the SC45 repo and the Google Translatoid (from the accompanying Extra repo) stopped working a few weeks back (whilst I was still on 4.5.3). Might be a simple change of URI required or might just be a problem on my machine, but nowt happens when pressing the Translate button. In addition, I've stumbled across what might be a bug, and wonder if anybody else can reproduce it? Having pressed the ineffective Translate button, if I then right-click on the widget and hover the mouse over menu items (in particular the Check Spelling option) the system locks up, with the mouse still moveable but everything else dead, forcing me to shut down the X server and log back in. This is with desktop effects and compositing switched off, with widgets locked. I've tried a few different minor releases of the translatoid as they appear in the repo every week or two, but it's always the same. It was working fine for a long time prior to that. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org
