[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 … [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] Problems with screensavers
by Chika 20 Feb '14

20 Feb '14

Actually, this appears to be a problem that has been an increasing pain since I first ran across it in V12.1. The symptoms go a bit like this. When I try to open the screensaver settings from the "Configure Desktop" right-click option, the window opens for a couple of seconds, showing "Loading..." in the screensaver selection area. It will then crash with no visible error and take the entirety of the desktop with it. The only fix I have to hand at that point is to restart the session. If … [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] konqueror context: Preview in KRPMview "File List" empty
by David C. Rankin 27 Jan '14

27 Jan '14

Ilya, All, I ran across a curiosity in konqueror. I had never used the context-menu option for 'Preview in KRPMview' and gave it a shot looking at arts-1.5.10-64.2.src.rpm from 13.1. All of the information is present for all of the other tabs (Description, Technical Data, Dependencies, Change Log) but nothing for the 'File List'. I've tried looking at the 'File List' for both .src.rpm and .rpm and same result. This is on a 11.4 box. Can anyone confirm that this same behavior continues in … [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] not happy with latest Konsole fonts
by Felix Miata 22 Jan '14

22 Jan '14

In last two 13.2 systems I've updated, line spacing has been changed from normal to about 1.5X normal. Global monospace top priority font via fontconfig set in exact same /etc/fonts/57-post-user.conf file I've been using in all installations for over a year is Droid Sans Mono, but this is not being picked up on account of selection "monospace" in Konsole font settings. To get Konsole to use Droid Sans Mono now requires I set it explicitly, which does get line spacing back to normal. Is … [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] KDE3 battery status in OpenSuSE 13.1
by "Svante Björklund, FOI" 20 Jan '14

20 Jan '14

Hello! I am trying KDE3 on my new laptop computer Dell Lattitude E6230. (I have also tried KDE4 and it has improved much the last years. It is now usable for serious work. But it crashes too often. It crashes twice a day on my computer. I do not loose data but it takes some (expensive) working time to restart the computer.) With KDE3 I have had some problems. Some functions and features which worked earlier do not work any longer. Right now I would like to have a working battery status … [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] Oss 13.1
by Patrick Serru 09 Jan '14

09 Jan '14

Hi All I installed OSS 13.1 + KDE3 (x86_64). Once again, the bugs of KDE4 rise to the surface: what worked in KDE3 before no longer works today! I tried deleting "libkde4" but then appears a list of dependencies. In this list appears "kate.11.3-48…", that unfortunately, I can not simply delete. There is a problem with sessions: they are not saved… There is also a thing called iBus in the task bar, and I assume responsibility that I can not enter metacharacters of my language. Also, I … [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] Watchdog(s)
by Patrick Serru 09 Jan '14

09 Jan '14

Hi All, I use an 8 cores x86_64 processor (not 4, as I wrote earlyer). And there is some watch dog running. I think that there is one for each core, but I dont remember where this idea commes from. It is not real a problem but: - It looks like Windows, that I have allways seen accessing hard disk every second witout respect to the hardware, - when booting from an USB hard disk, it slowdown the system. It must be the Kernel (vmlinuz-3.4.47-2.38-desktop), because the system do this after … [View More]
