[opensuse-kde] elarun splash with KDM?
by Felix Miata 22 Feb '16

22 Feb '16

What actually controls what splash is available, the greeter/DM, or the DE? Is there a TW or Leap package I can install to get Elarun in KF5 instead of a choice between Breeze and nothing? Configure splash doesn't provide a way to see where the selections live so as to be able to run rpm -qf on them to see what rpm owns them. Installing kde4-wallpaper-default got Elarun for the desktop wallpaper, but not for splash. SDDM isn't an option due to KDM features SDDM lacks, unless SDDM can be used just for configuration access to optional splashes and not required to be the configured greeter. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse-kde] Leap 42.1 Kwallet password field and VirtualBox buttons now appears oversized
by Roman Bysh 03 Jan '16

03 Jan '16

Hi all, Has any one notice that kwallet's password fields and buttons have tripled in size in Plasma 5.4x. I've also notice this in VirtualBox. The toolbar and statusbar's height has doubled or tripled in height. The buttons have become huge. I noticed this after the update. Any one else? -- Cheers!

[opensuse-kde] Plasma5: background positioning not working
by Daniele 29 Dec '15

29 Dec '15

HI, I've default wallpaper (green bulb) in sddm and Plasma but with different size. So this give a sort of bad transition from sddm to desktop. Under desktop setting, the positioning (center, scaled..) does not work. I see the change in the small preview but the Apply button does nothing ! Is this a known bug ? Leap, Plasma-5.5.2, Kframework-5.17 and QT-5.5.1 Daniele. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] TW system sounds, and no TW system sounds
by Felix Miata 25 Dec '15

25 Dec '15

I have a multiboot Haswell system on which it has been a serious pain to make sound work. With help from Takashi on the opensuse-factory list[1], I've finally managed to get sound almost everywhere. The holdout is actually two, system sounds from Plasma5 in TW, and sound from smplayer running in Plasma5 in TW, where aplay, HTML5 and YaST2 test sounds all work. Where it is working across the board: Mageia 5/KDE4 Fedora 23/Plasma 5 13.1/TDE/KDE4 13.2/KDE4 42.1/KDE3 TW/KDE4. The intentional difference between the TW/Plasma5 and TW/KDE4 installations WRT KDE is on the KDE4 I've set locks breez* and kde-oxygen-fonts in order to block upgrading any more of KDE4 to KF5 than is forced. Consequential differences are necessarily a few rpms, but WRT sound I see the non-working KF5 installation even though running the same kernel has a different loaded snd module configuration, thus: --- 1 2015-12-24 05:51:02.095724644 -0500 (broken KF5) +++ 2 2015-12-24 05:51:09.245708595 -0500 (working KDE4) @@ -1,11 +1,13 @@ -snd 90112 16 snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hwdep,snd_timer,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_pcm,snd_hda_codec_generic,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_intel +snd 90112 14 snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hwdep,snd_timer,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_pcm,snd_seq,snd_hda_codec_generic,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_intel,snd_seq_device snd_hda_codec 147456 4 snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_codec_generic,snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec_generic 81920 1 snd_hda_codec_realtek snd_hda_codec_hdmi 53248 1 snd_hda_codec_realtek 86016 1 snd_hda_core 73728 5 snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_codec_generic,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_intel -snd_hda_intel 40960 4 +snd_hda_intel 40960 2 snd_hwdep 16384 1 snd_hda_codec snd_pcm 135168 4 snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_core -snd_timer 36864 1 snd_pcm +snd_seq 77824 0 +snd_seq_device 16384 1 snd_seq +snd_timer 36864 2 snd_pcm,snd_seq soundcore 16384 1 snd How can it be determined why the differences, or if they matter? How to get system sounds to work in KF5? In multimedia settings, no backends are offered, even though both phonon-backend-gstreamer and phonon-backend-vlc are installed on both TW installations. Another difference noted is on the working KDE4, phonon-backend-vlc came from Packman in June, while no other sound-related packages are from Packman, or are currently available from Packman.

[opensuse-kde] OS 42.1 KDE strategy
by Malte Gell 25 Dec '15

25 Dec '15

Hi there, the Plasma5 I think still is under heavy construction, right? This makes me wonder, will we get frequtent KDE updates for OS 42.1 to improve things or do you recommend to use some additional repo to get more frequent updates? My goal is not to have bleeding edge Plasma5 stuff, I want a mostly stable Plasma5. I just wonder if the standard OS 42.1 update policy will provide us such frequent stability updates and fixes or if additional Plasma5 repo is recommended for more stability.

[opensuse-kde] [Leap 42.1] Enable horizontal scrolling to switch between desktops
by Darryl Gregorash 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

I probably should have asked this in here, instead of in the main mailing list. In previous releases, I was able to change the mouse behaviour to use horizontal instead of vertical scrolling to switch desktops. This capability seems to have disappeared in Leap, at least with the Plasma5 Desktop. Is it possible to re-enable horizontal scrolling in this instance? Everywhere else, eg. switching between browser tabs, horizontal scrolling works as intended. It even works on the taskbar to change desktops, but not on the desktop itself. I also used to be able to use horizontal scrolling to switch between tasks on the taskbar, but no more. Is there some way to get this mouse action back into the desktop actions? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

HI guys, I'd like to install Yakuake5 but it is available only in few home repo. Which is the status of the app ? Is it reliable enough ? Missing "kde 5" apps are (for my needs) Ktorrent that is taking shape, Yakuake and K3b. Any news about K3b ? Thanks !

[opensuse-kde] Changing date/time format?
by Emilio Recio 16 Dec '15

16 Dec '15

How do I make all dates and times /in KDE/ to be shown in the following format if the 'date' command returns "Mon Nov 23 21:53:13 EST 2015": Date: "2015-11-23" Time (no AM/PM): "21:51" I am in the United States but prefer the formats above. Under KDE4 with another distro I figured this out, but can't find it in OpenSUSE's KDE4. Yes, I also know that KDE5 does NOT support customization of formats, which is one of MANY reasons I switched to OpenSUSE.
