[opensuse-kde3] Missing writing accents
by Helga Fischer 09 Jul '18

09 Jul '18

Hello List, how can I get back the ability writing accents on my KDE3-desktop? My System is openSUSE 13.1 with KDE3 (3.5.10 release 262) from inofficial Suse-repos. I'm using the keyboard layout with dead keys. Under KDE4 all applications can work with accents. Under KDE3 there is no application writing accents. Writing accents is active (kcontrol). Any hints (or is this behaviour a bug)?. Thanks, Helga -- ## Technik: [http://de.opensuse.org] ## Privat: [http://www.eschkitai.de] -- … [View More]

[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] Watchdog
by Patrick Serru 01 Apr '14

01 Apr '14

Hello All, I use Oss 12.2. Unable to use 13.1. I think it is because of the X drivers for NVidia (I hate NVidia). My system seems to operate with a guard dog by heart (and I run an FX 8 cores). My problem is that these watchdogs need to access the hard drive. Ugh! It reminds me of the early MS software. So, my one year old hard drive died, and I guess this is due to the too frequent access. I saw that, with or without supervision, the system can freeze anyway. Every second, the … [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] kdeaccessability3-icons dropped from the KDE3 repository
by J. Leslie Turriff 27 Mar '14

27 Mar '14

I see that the kdeaccessability3-icons package has been dropped from the 13.1 KDE3 repository; I had to go back to the 12.3 repository to get it. I believe that many other sight-impaired users of KDE would, like me, appreciate return of this useful package to the current KDE3 repository. We recognize that users who are not sight-impaired might regard its icons as ugly, but many sight-impaired users have difficulty distinguishing from one another many of the modern, pastel-toned icons. … [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] Bug: kwrite (katepart) keyboard shortcut scancode for '<' is same as '>'
by David C. Rankin 24 Mar '14

24 Mar '14

Ilya, Serghei, I ran across a bug in the keyboard shortcut keys attempting to set shortcuts for 'Enlarge Font' and 'Shrink Font' in kwrite (11.4) (probably the same in 13.1). I set: Enlarge Font = [ctrl] [shift] [>] Then attempted to set the shortcut for Shrink Font: Shrink Font = [ctrl] [shift] [<] and received the following error: <quote> The 'Ctrl+Shift+>' key combination has already been allocated to the "Enlarge Font" action. Do you want to reassign it from that … [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] User session tracking patch needed for pure systemd (no consolekit)
by David C. Rankin 08 Mar '14

08 Mar '14

Ilya, All Do you have a patch yet to fix the user session tracking problem in KDE3 in a pure systemd environment (no ConsoleKit)? I'm trying to work out the problem of TDE leaving kdeio_file/sftp/http processes running after the connection is closed. This has to do with the freedesktop migration to systemd requirements listed here: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/writing-display-managers/ http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/writing-desktop-environmen… … [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] kdm4 instead of kdm3
by Dexter Filmore 03 Mar '14

03 Mar '14

Recently upgraded 12.2->12.3->13.1, worked well so far, but while kdebase3-kdm is installed the system comes up with kdm from kde4. etc/sysconfig/displaymanager states "kdm" and "which kdm" says: /opt/kde3/bin/kdm but ps auxf lists: root 1140 0.0 0.0 24612 828 ? Ss 17:51 0:00 /usr/bin/kdm No kdm3 binary is in $PATH. When I uninstall the kdm package from kde4 suse comes up with xdm. Pointers appreciated. -- -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GCS d--… [View More]

[opensuse-kde3] Stock or KDE3 repos?
by Dexter Filmore 02 Mar '14

02 Mar '14

I'm currently upgrading from 12.3 to 13.1, and to my surprise zypper dup told me it would install an older version on a lot of the kde3 packages. No vendor change. the KDE3 repos is in my list and activated, but has no priority set, so I guess suse stayed with the official opensuse kde3 packages. But - which should I use anyway? What are the advantages / disadvantages of using the KDE3 repos? Cheers Dex -- -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GCS d--(+)@ s-:+ a C++++ UL++ P+&… [View More]
