I'm on my 11.4/kde3 laptop right … [View More]now - still no kpowersave battery icon in the tray. Clicking on kmenu -> System -> Desktop -> kpowersave launches and restores the icon to systray. The "battery meter" is working, but looks like it needs to configure itself again to know the proper time left. I think that will happen automatically during the first batter cycle. I needed to configure kpowersave to start on login again. Configure kpowersave -> General Settings -> Miscellaneous -> Autostart [X] KPowersave starts automatically on login. Looks like Ilya worked a bit more magic and got it working again. Great job Ilya. I don't know if this is the old kpowersave or if this is upower with the kpowersave interface on it -- can you fill us in Ilya? Regardless, it seems to be working again.

[opensuse-kde3] KDE3 & Firefox 6 on 11.4/i586
by Larry Stotler 29 Aug '11

29 Aug '11

I recently installed 11.4 on my Thinkpad A22p(P3/1Ghz/512MB/ATI Rage 128Mobility-16MB). I installed KDE3 and updated Firefox to v6 through the Mozilla repo(which begs the question of what they are doing with v5.x in the main repo since Mozilla claims v6 is the security update......) Anyway, I've had issues with the menu bar, Tabs and the URL bar and the Search bar. The tabs will disappear and take the menu bar with them, and sometimes when I am typing in the URL and Search bars, the text … [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] HAL removal
by Ilya Chernykh 25 Aug '11

25 Aug '11

Currently I am removing the dependency on HAL from all packages in Factory except those which necessarily require it. This may result in a sufficient loss of function. For example, your removable USB drives will not be recognized as USB drives but only as hard drives from now on. That's why I created a separate repository KDE:KDE3:HAL-enabled for those of you who wants a HAL-enabled kdebase3. If you spot that other applications also sufficiently loose their functions without HAL please point … [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] KDE3 and Avahi
by Larry Stotler 23 Aug '11

23 Aug '11

Does anyone know if Avahi is still a friggin dependency for KDE3? I gutted that worthless garbage from my 11.0 system and now I can't play any of the games because it "Needs" it. WHY does a game like kpat NEED crap like avahi???? I'm blown away. Does everyone think I need/want all this social networking crap??? Sorry for the rant, but I just can't get my head around the arrogance of some people and their need to force every new and unneeded/unwanted piece of garbage on me. I gutted avahi … [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] Where have the OpenSuse 11.2 KDE3 repos gone?
by Robert Smits 22 Aug '11

22 Aug '11

I'd like to be able to add some KDE3 apps like amarok 1.4 to my Opensuse 11.2 64 bit install, but can't find any repos that will let me add kde3base, etc. All of the ones listed on various web sites seem not to work. Any suggestions? -- Robert Smits bob(a)rsmits.ca I admire him, I frankly confess it; and when his time comes I shall buy a piece of the rope for a keepsake.

it seems that the mp3 codec for k3b is missing from the kde3 repo. yes, yast is eager to install all of kde4 along with the codec, but that's not what we want, right? should i try the codec from my 11.1 version (it is a kde3 install) ? thanks, d. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+help(a)opensuse.org
