[opensuse-kde3] openSUSE 12.1 with KDE3 and KDE4 applications
by Gianluca Interlandi 05 May '15

05 May '15

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] Ideas for new NetworkManager frontend
by Serghei Amelian 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Hello KDE3 users, I started the development for new NetworkManager frontend, but i'm not sure how to make it to be powerful and user-friendly at same time. Basically, it will have 3 components: 1) a secret agent running as KDE service 2) a connection manager, integrated in KControl 3) a kicker applet Any ideas will be apreciated (screenshots or .ui files created with Qt3 designer are preffered). Thanks. PS I attached a screenshot with current done work (the list of connections for ethernet and wireless). PPS Do not confuse "connection" with "access point" or "ethernet device". A physical device can have more than one connection (for example "eth0 work" and "eth0 home"). -- Serghei

[opensuse-kde3] cmake migration
by Serghei Amelian 28 Nov '12

28 Nov '12

Hi Ilya, What about migration to cmake? I will continue to develop various things, but will be harder and harder to backport they to original KDE sources. I did some quick and dirty RPM specs for Fedora: http://wifimag.ro/fedora/sources/ -- Serghei -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner(a)opensuse.org

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Re: [opensuse-kde3] USB Transfer Speed Date: Wednesday 28 November 2012 From: Erik Sorenson <eriksorenson(a)amtelecom.net> To: Ilya Chernykh <anixxsus(a)gmail.com> Gave up trying to transfer a 700 mb file after 4 minutes; it had transferred only 27.6 mb using the cp command, which is the same result I fot using Konquerer file manager. Here's the strange thing. I have two partitions with genned copies of 12.2_x86/KDE3 on them --- they BOTH have the same slow USB transfer speed. But another partion, which has 12.2_x86 and Cinnamon, does the regular 6+ mb/s. The suse/cinamon partition used to have Mint 14 + Cinnamon, and it transferred at 6+ mb/s. And, as I said, Win7 goes at 6+ mb/s. All openSUSE partitions have had their OS put on with the followong general procedure: 1. do a minimal-X install off the full DVD; 2. add the repo for the desktop, i.e. KDE/KDE3 or Cinnamon 3. Add the basics of the desktop environment. I know it shouldn't differ, but it does. Does udev implementation make a difference?

[opensuse-kde3] USB Transfer Speed

Using 12.2_x86 with KDE3, and getting 100k/sec transferring (copying) files from my HDD over a USB2 port to a USB2 flash stick. The same file transfer in Mint14_x86 Cinnamon over the same port to the same device is about 6 mb/s, and in openSUSE 12.2_x86 with Cinamon DM gives the same 6mb/sec transfer. All are separate physical partitions, not VMs. On the same PC using Windows 7_x64, over the same port to the same device, the write speed is also 6mb/s or more. Makes no difference to all of the results if the transfer originates from an ext4 or ntfs partition, or if the flash drive is formatted fat32 or ntfs, in both Windows and Linux. The files I tested are 600mb to 1.5 gig in size. I was surprised about the transfer speed in KDE3, as I assumed all the USB functionality came from the kernel and not the desktop manager.
