Mystery Tumbleweed - kmix volume goes to 75% magically sometime after kde3 startup?
by David C. Rankin 20 Oct '24

20 Oct '24

All, Here is another tumbleweed issue I'm trying to track down. The volume with kmix is set to 61%. That's where I set it, and that's where it is set on desktop start. However, after opening konsole, kate, konqueror, firefox, thunderbird, kweather and usually kpatience (patience card game - time killer), at some point, the volume magically jumps to 75% ??? Has anyone else seen there volume magically adjust to 75%? I haven't isolated which app does it. Whenever it happens, I don'… [View More]

Test build of kdelibs3 with rust alert patch - I'll test
by David C. Rankin 17 Oct '24

17 Oct '24

Yasuhiko, Since we have eliminated the openssh and other kdelibs3/qt3 issues, can you make a private build of kdelibs3 with the rust.xml alert patch and post a link for me to test to see if the Embedded Advanced Text Editor katepart issue has resolved? I'm curious about what the issue was there. The change to rust.xml is innocuous and should make no difference whatsoever to the katepart. Not a big issue, but I would like to see the rust.xml syntax file updated. Not that I'm a big … [View More]

NEW BUG - sftp kio is BROKEN
by David C. Rankin 23 Sep '24

23 Sep '24

Yasuhiko, I went to use konqueror to browse another Linux box on my LAN as I've done 1000's of times, ctrl + t for a new tab and then: sftp://valkyrie/home/david sftp:// is broken. Usually as you are typing, sftp is so good it autocompletes your path, e.g. sftp://valkyrie/home/d would shown 'david' for completion and you can simply select it and complete the connection. Now, sftp is just broken. See the following link where I attempted to open a saved kate session that … [View More]opens files from the host on my LAN: https://paste.opensuse.org/pastes/d66c92f7bb18 This is a "hair on fire" moment. We have to figure out what broke and when. It's probably been a couple of weeks since I worked on the remote project, so I don't know what day it broke, but something broke (maybe the new openssh?)

KDE3 Konqueror FileManagement Loses File Associations Randomly
by David C. Rankin 19 Sep '24

19 Sep '24

All, Yasuhiko, On occasions konqueror filemanagement loses its file associations to various type files randomly. Here is an example of where it doesn't know what an .xcf image opens with despite listing the file type as a "GIMP Native Image..." https://paste.opensuse.org/pastes/4a65237dfc92 This confusion is on a per-session basis and will be reset to normal on next logout/login. This looks suspiciously like a memory corruption error of some type, a use-after-free, etc... It … [View More]

Add Alerts (FIXME, TODO, etc..) to rust katepart/syntax/rust.xml

BUG - focus-follows-mouse broken for Gtk apps in latest builds of KDE3
by David C. Rankin 12 Sep '24

12 Sep '24

All, I just did a fresh install of Tumbleweed. I have both 15.4 and Tumbleweed on separate disks I can boot back and forth between. My 15.4 KDE3 hasn't been updated in several months -- it continues to work perfectly. However, whatever has changed (base libraries, etc..) in the KDE3 build has broken the focus-follows-mouse and middle-mouse-scroll over Gtk apps such as Firefox/Thunderbird unless those windows are raised to the top level. (in other words the mouse-wheel will not scroll … [View More]

TW - ksysguard broken - not updating - please confirm
by David C. Rankin 10 Sep '24

10 Sep '24

Yasuhiko, All, I just had the relatively normal "Knotify Crash" and was going to look at ksysguard to see if there was anything funny going on. Starting ksysguard, the window opens and all looks fine -- but nothing is updating, it's just dead. Can somebody open ksysguard on Tumbleweed and see if it updates on your system. My normal "Knotify Crash" is the old random crash that disables system sounds for your sound theme: jack_client_new: deprecated Cannot connect to server socket … [View More]err = No such file or directory Cannot connect to server request channel jack server is not running or cannot be started JackShmReadWritePtr::~JackShmReadWritePtr - Init not done for -1, skipping unlock JackShmReadWritePtr::~JackShmReadWritePtr - Init not done for -1, skipping unlock akode: Guessed format: xiph KNotify::playTimeout KNotify::playTimeout KCrash: Application 'knotify' crashing...

Just random. I don't know if the knotify crash effects ksysguard updating, but I thought I would include it for completeness.

YaST - KDE 3 Desktop Environment - Pattern Broken by kde3-gtk-qt-engine

All, Yasuhiko, Responding to a question by Felix regarding resume= for suspend, he asked for the patterns installed on my system. Checking yast I stumbled across the actual pattern KDE 3 Desktop Environment. (I'd never looked, I just presumed it was still missing as it had been for years) It's there! That's good! The bad is you cannot install it due to libbonoboui. Attempting to select the pattern results in the dependency error: ! nothing provides 'libbonoboui-2.so.0()(64bit)' … [View More]
