[opensuse-kde3] Updates remove "Embedded Advances Text Editor" - "Preview In" option - Reason found.

by David C. Rankin

All, If you have updated kde3 with packages with build 216.1 for kdelib3, you will notice in konqueror filemanagement that "Preview In" no longer has the option to view text files in the normal "Embedded Advanced Text Editor" I submitted bug: http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1172692 The problem is somebody mixed TDE and openSUSE KDE3 code resulting in /opt/kde3/share/services/katepart.desktop containing code for X-TDE instead of X-KDE..... Hopefully this will be fixed shortly. You can just copy an old katepart.desktop and rebuild the cache kbuildsycoca --noincremental and then log out/in and it will be restored. -- David C.

[opensuse-kde3] Help find cause - menu on first click display approx 1 in. above taskbar - fine on subsequent access

by David C. Rankin

All, This is a very, very old problem I'm trying to chase down. When kde first starts (or you use kmenuedit to update the menu), the first time you press the start menu button to access the menu, the menu is drawn about an inch (or one taskbar height) above the taskbar instead of immediately above the taskbar. This is some combination of settings that causes the issue. I have seen this since kde 3.5.10 was released and I can currently reproduce the issue on 15.0 - 15.2 ... BUT ... on other 15.0 - 15.2 installs this issue does not occur. Most of the time I copy a bulk of my ~/.kde/share/config and ~/.kde/apps and any autostart scripts. So I'm somewhat at a loss what combination of settings leads to this behavior. I even have some virtualbox guests that exhibit the problem and others that don't -- eliminating any display driver or other potential hardware consideration. Other than going through the config files one-by-one between machines that do/don't have the problem and restarting the desktop between each change -- I'm not sure how to narrow the problem down. Anybody else see this? Anybody have any thoughts on how to track the issue down? -- David C.

[opensuse-kde3] KDE3 autostart files / ibus starts at session start

by Gianluca Interlandi

Dear KDE3 users, I would like to ask where the KDE3 autostart files are located. A while ago I installed some ibus packages and since then every time I start a KDE3 session, the "ibus input framework" automatically starts up, which I dislike. I un-installed the package ibus-m17n, but it didn't help. The only solution was to rename the file "/usr/bin/ibus-daemon", so that it cannot be found. But I would like a more elegant solution. My folder ~/.kde/Autostart/ is empty, so there has to be a different place where the information is stored to automatically start the ibus daemon when the session starts. Thanks a lot in advance for your help!

[opensuse-kde3] root permission needed to shut down

by Felix Miata

When KDM was dropped from TW, I switched many of my TW installations running Plasma to kdebase3-kdm, since all other other login managers are hopelessly feature deficient by comparison. This has worked fine until upgrading to 20200611. Now after logging out of a Plasma session, the greeter requires permission to select turn off computer. Is this only happening to me? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science. Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!
