[opensuse-kde3] USB sticks not getting mounted, spotty mounting of DVDs (KDE3/11.4-32bit)
by Erik Sorenson 20 Mar '11

20 Mar '11

Plugging in a usb stick results in no action/notification at all by KDE3. Inserting a DVD is 99% unlikely to result in notification/mounting by KDE (i.e., "what do you want to do?"). Do I need "kdbus" installed? It's not. Or could it be my "fstab"? Salient part is: proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0 debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs noauto 0 0 usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0 Or something else? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde3] Advice Needed on KDE3 Module Choices When Genning
by Erik Sorenson 17 Mar '11

17 Mar '11

1. kde3-gtk-qt-engine, or kde3-kcm-gtk? I used the second, last gen, and it looks works OK. 2. kdebase3-SuSE-branding-opensuse (pulled in by kdebase3), supplemented (??) by kdebase3-SuSE? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde3] 11.4 - launching kde3 as root launches kde4??
by David C. Rankin 17 Mar '11

17 Mar '11

Ilya, All, What is up with root login loading kde4 even though the session selected is kde3? I even went back and deleted /root/.kde4 and /var/tmp/kdecache-root and tried again. It still loaded kde4 even though KDE3 was selected in the chooser. I don't even have kde4 installed. I guess the runtime base got installed to support some kde apps, but I was very careful in install going through the "Detailed Package Selection" to make sure nothing but the kde4 runtime was installed. How can I login to kde3 as root? (I do this a least once to set the default fonts, etc so when I launch kate/kwrite as root in my kde3 session, the fonts and icons are correct) What say the experts? -- David C.

[opensuse-kde3] Updates
by Ilya Chernykh 16 Mar '11

16 Mar '11

Network manager plugin for KDE3 has been updated so to be compatible with NM 0.8. This is due to patches by Sergei Amelian from the Trinity project. The package has been renamed, it is now called knetworkmanager-kde3. The kcontrol crash issue is solved, now it functions exactly the same way as in 11.3 (although it was discovered that it is not exactly correct way and this module needs further patching). Also big thanks to Sergei Amelian. Please be patient and wait until the repository rebuild is finished (it may take several days). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde3] Screen blanks when app runs as root - you get it back when you move windows around
by David C. Rankin 16 Mar '11

16 Mar '11

Ilya, I don't know if this is only a kde issue or if xorg/glib may be involved. The problem is the screen blacks out when you launch an app run as root. Like when I start kate as root, all of the screen goes black except for the kate session chooser that lets you pick a kate session. After you choose a session and kate open, you see kate. If you move the window around and force a redraw of the screen, then all the color and other windows come back. What could this be? -- David C.

[opensuse-kde3] Call for help with Trinity Project
by David C. Rankin 15 Mar '11

15 Mar '11

All, The Trinity project is gaining momentum and is in need of help for those that have CMake experience to help get modules converted to CMake. There is also a need for those with autotools/autoconf experience to help update the configuration to work with the newer autotools/autoconf. Robert, Ilya and I are doing what we can, but there is always a need for more manpower. Bob, Felix, Erik, Mark and the rest, if you have any spare time and want to help, you can really make a difference. We all have shown an interest in seeing KDE3/Trinity move forward by virtue of being here on this list. Regardless of your experience level, you can help. I struggle with makefiles, etc., and I'm just learning CMake, but even without being an expert, I eventually find a way to make some small contribution. Everyone can. Think about it, join the Trinity-devel list and get familiar with what's going on. "Your desktop needs you" :) -- David C.
