I didn't think there would be any difference either. I didn't copy that file, i used another login and launched digikam, hoping digikam would still be able to access the files on the camera without "Device Notifier" recognising the camera and it did work. I don't know where the file came from as i did also try and configure the camera via "Configure KDE4 Applications" as it still has a camera config module.
Yes, but the KDE4 camera config module only has effect for KDE4 applications. Dolphin and digikam still are KDE4 based though. And which file do you mean? /usr/share/solid/actions/solid_mtp.desktop is in the package kio-extras5 as I wrote already, the KDE4 version is in kio_mtp, which you should have installed if you want to use MTP with KDE4 applications.
I have now renamed the "/usr/share/solid/actions" directory, created a new "/usr/share/solid/actions" directory and copied all the files from the "/usr/share/kde4/apps/solid/actions/" into the new directory. The "Device Notifier" now recognises the CD-R and DVDs.
Why?
because if i "ls -L" or readlink on that directory i got error messages from all the linked files e.g. "cannot access k3b_copy_disc.desktop: Too many levels of symbolic links" so this made me think the files were screwed.
Do your symlinks point to themselves? They should point to the KDE4 version of course, e.g /usr/share/solid/digikam-opencamera.desktop should point to /usr/share/kde4/apps/solid/digikam-opencamera.desktop. Or just copy the missing files.
You replaced the KF5/Plasma5 files with KDE4's now. Probably not a good idea. And you'll get the originals back when installing updates.
As long as the originals are correct links/files, it should be fine
But why not leave the originals there in the first place then? Also rpm has problems with replacing symlinks by files or vice-versa in certain circumstances.
The Audio CD does now work.
Probably because you copied the K3b action files.
A data CD does show up fine though, as you can "Open with file manager" (or mount it) in any case.
It does since i copied the actions files
No. The "Open with file manager" action is part of plasma5-workspace itself.
Looks like the lining of the "/usr/share/solid/actions" files got all screwed up during the when i installed Plasma 5.3 over KDE4.
lining -> linking
There is no "linking of the /usr/share/solid/actions files" either. But some KDE4 packages (like TW's k3b) do create symlinks so their actions show up in Plasma5 as well. And KF5/Plasma5 packages do install their action files to the correct directories (for Plasma5) anyway.
Hm? You did not install Plasma5.3's /usr/share/solid/actions file "over" KDE4's, as they are in completely different directories. But I don't fully understand what you mean with that sentence anyway...
I was just trying to say that i had KDE4 in place and working and then i installed Plasma 5.3 without removing KDE4
So? That's what's supposed to work. Kind Regards, Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
