[opensuse-kde3] Missing writing accents
by Helga Fischer 09 Jul '18

Hello List, how can I get back the ability writing accents on my KDE3-desktop? My System is openSUSE 13.1 with KDE3 (3.5.10 release 262) from inofficial Suse-repos. I'm using the keyboard layout with dead keys. Under KDE4 all applications can work with accents. Under KDE3 there is no application writing accents. Writing accents is active (kcontrol). Any hints (or is this behaviour a bug)?.

[opensuse-kde3] openSUSE 12.1 with KDE3 and KDE4 applications

Hi! I am about to install openSUSE 12.1 on a laptop. I want to use it mainly (or entirely) with the KDE3 desktop but I still want to be able to run KDE4 applications under KDE3. In the past, I have done this with openSUSE 11.3 and 11.4. During installation of 11.3 and 11.4, I selected KDE4 as the default desktop. Then I added the KDE:KDE3 repository and installed all the packages to properly run KDE3 following more or less the recommendations given here: HOW-TO: KDE 3.5 on 11.4 This has worked perfectly and I was even able to use the oxygen theme in KDE3. For example, okular and vlc came with the nice oxygen theme even when running under KDE3. My question is: Is this procedure going to work also with openSUSE 12.1 or is there anything in particular I have to pay attention to? Thanks!

[opensuse-kde3] Need some fixes
by Ilya Chernykh 19 Nov '14

Currently two packages are failing in KDE:KDE3: https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor/KDE:KDE3?blocked=0&building=0&di… One is kdebluetooth - it fails because a funtion converting a string to Unicode has been removed from the Obex library. The function call needs a replace with any other funtion that may convert a string to Unicode, but I do not know how to do this. The other is kiax - it fails at posst-build-tests in Factory because the tests were made stricter. There is some issue with a pointer size. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde3] Should I restore Arts as part of kdebse3?
by Ilya Chernykh 19 Nov '14

Currently openSUSE's KDE3 uses KDE Media Manager (an early version of KDE4's Phonon) instead of Arts. Arts is built in a separate package but seems to be buggy (Noatun does not work, does it?). As such I suggest to consider restoring Arts and removing KDEMM. To dcheck whether this would be beneficial I suggest to try the packages from KDE:KDE3:Trident, the variant of KDE3 developed by Serghei, which currently uses Arts. If there are no problems occuring, we can make the move and remove the Arts package from factory. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner(a)opensuse.org
