[opensuse-kde3] retrofit 3 in place of 4 failed on 12.2
by Felix Miata 13 Aug '14

13 Aug '14

I cloned a 12.2 (on purpose) KDE4 installation, removed (virtually) all of KDE4, enabled KDE:KDE3, then zypper installed whatever packages best matched this running 11.4/KDE3 installation. On starting KDE3 (via startx) I found personal settings missing, so exited, found and installed systemsettings-kde3, and tried again. Now, trying to use systemsettings, still missing from the menus, crashes: System configuration startup check disabled.

[opensuse-kde3] kdelibs3 fails to build due to cups changes
by Olaf Hering 06 Aug '14

06 Aug '14

SLE12 lacks kdirstat, so I linked arts, qt3, kdelibs3 and kdirstat in my project. But kdelibs3 fails due to API changes in cpus-1.7. I wonder why cups is still at 1.5 in Factory. Did anyone already start integrating the required changes for cups-1.7?

[opensuse-kde3] What is gam_server? and why is it in .xsession-errors on kwrite start?
by David C. Rankin 03 Aug '14

03 Aug '14

Ilya, I'm trying to track down slow start of kwrite/kate compared to 11.4. Whenever I launch kwrite, I get the following sequence in the .xsession-errors file: failed to find gam_server Failed to connect to socket /tmp/fam-david- libpng warning: Interlace handling should be turned on when using png_read_image libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) 3 Major opcode: 20 Minor opcode: 0 Resource id: 0x48001b2 X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) 3 Major opcode: 20 Minor opcode: 0 Resource id: 0x48001b2 I know what the libpng issue is and I've got a utility to patch the pngs, but the real problem appears to be the: failed to find gam_server Failed to connect to socket /tmp/fam-david- What is 'gam_server' and why is kwrite/kate trying to connect to it? It must have a (1-2) sec timeout, because that is about the delay I see on kwrite start. Any ideas? -- David C.

[opensuse-kde3] konqueror - file association - how make x-shellscript display in embedded viewer like group 'text'?
by David C. Rankin 03 Aug '14

03 Aug '14

All, One quirk I have always wanted to fix is that konqueror (--profile filemanagment) treats BASH scripts as type `x-shellscript` instead of plain text. What this does is makes it impossible to tell konqueror to just display the script in the preview pane with the `Embedded Advanced Text Editor (katepart)` like you can with normal text files. This may be easy to do and I just haven't figured it out, but how do you do it? When you (right-click) edit the properties for a file.sh, the problem (looks like a bug) is that when you tell it to `Show file in embedded viewer` -- it doesn't. (I don't know what it does, I presume it tries to run the file) Another problem when you edit the properties for file.sh, the [Embedding] tab offers the `Left Click Action` to `Use settings for 'application' group` instead of the 'text' group. For some reason this prevents being able to display the file. How do you tell konqueror to just display the script in the embedded viewer? -- David C.

[opensuse-kde3] 13.1 - knemo - no display of essid (similar to NetworkManager issue)
by David C. Rankin 02 Aug '14

02 Aug '14

Ilya, All, knemo in 13.1 no longer displays wireless essid and the remaining connection information like it has traditionally displayed. I suspect this is due to the change in network device id (wlanX -> wlpXs0). Here is a screenshot of the tooltip showing the missing information. (all information is selected to show in knemo config) http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/bugs/openSuSE/131/kde3/knemo-no-essid.jpg Let me know if you need me to file this report somewhere, or work it here on the list.

[opensuse-kde3] kate krashed - kcrash attached
by David C. Rankin 02 Aug '14

02 Aug '14

Ilya, all, I experienced a crash of kate earlier tonight. This is the first one since install. kate has always been rock solid, so I'm a bit concerned. I've attached the kcrash output. Let me know if I can install a debuginfo if needed, or if any further information will help. Thanks. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

[opensuse-kde3] 13.1 kde3-networkmanager - does not read connections in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections
by David C. Rankin 01 Aug '14

01 Aug '14

Ilya, I'm using network manager in 13.1, so I attempted to load the kde3 network-manager package. While the balloon-tip shown the correct essid I'm connected to, it does not list any connections in the connections list. I've checked in gnome nm-connection-editor and it properly lists all connection in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections. Does the kde3 app need updating? -- David C.
