If you are running SuSE 8.0 you should never install packages built for SuSE 8.1 You cannot resolv this problem the easy way, it's the difference between gcc 2.95 on SuSE 8.0 and gcc 3 on SuSE 8.1 The easiest way is to get the source RPM of your package and rebuild it using "rpm --rebuild package.src.rpm" Greets, Daniel

KMail error messages after "restore"
by Kevin McLauchlan 06 Dec '02

06 Dec '02

I had mail in KMail, and then in Sylpheed in SuSE 8.0. Before I installed (new, including formatting...) SuSE 8.1, I backed up my folders to a CD. Afterward, I started and configured KMail. Then I tried to bring in the folders from the CD. I did NOT try to bring in my old inbox... just the "homemade" folders for my listmail, etc. Now whenever KMail is open, I'm constantly getting messages like: Warning - KNotify <148> Cannot open file "/home/kevin/Mail/mbox" Permission denied Similar messages for "..... /folder-metadata.xml" What's up?

I also could get back to my old session with Ctrl-Alt-F7. Hmmm... a coupla months ago, somebody told me to add a line for the second X session in one of the manymanymanymanymanymanymany... config files. There was already a line for display :0 at [Ctrl]-[Alt]-[F7], and I was told to add another line, changing the :0 to :1 and [F7] to [F8], which was supposed to allow my wife find my system with me logged in and the locked screen-saver, and all she'd need to do is type [Ctrl]-[Alt]-[F8] to get a graphical login. It didn't work that way ( [Ctrl]-[Alt]-[F8] just gave a black screen with a block cursor that didn't respond to the keyboard, and I haven't had time to play with it. Also, on my system, if one does [Ctrl]-[Alt]-[any-F-before-7] one gets a text-only console that cannot start an X session. "Fatal error server already in use for display :0" Doesn't matter if we issue startx -- :1. But there is, after all, a workaround. The wife has been doing [Ctrl]-[Alt]-[F1], logging in at the command line, and then issuing startx -- :1, which has the effect of starting a new X session on the [F7] display. Is it possible to set things up so that the command-line login on [F1] console is not needed? ... so she can just type [Ctrl]-[Alt]-[F8] and face a graphical (KDE or GNOME) login? Bonus question: If we each have a KDE session going, and I shut down the system, will her session close gracefully? or is it just brutally killed? What's the gentlest way for me (logging in to console as root) to close her open session with minimal loss or disruption to whatever she was doing? /kevin

Irrrrks...... is it possible, that starting a new X session when locking the screen is the wanted behavior?????? http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48537 Then how is the wanted way to get back to your old session? Killing the X session with the KDM by using CTRL-ALT-Backspace????

Hi list! Is there any reason, why qt3-devel package from SuSE doesn't contain the findtr binary? It does contain the mergetr and the msg2qm binaries... Greets, Daniel

[7.1 -> KDE3] Where is libbz2.so.0?
by Martin Schröder 05 Dec '02

05 Dec '02

Hi, I'm trying to upgrade 7.1 to KDE3 with the current packages from i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_7.1 . This fails because the rpms in base need libbz2.so.0 which is not installed (and not provided by the packages in base it seems). Where do I get it? Thanks in advance Martin -- Martin Schröder, MS(a)ArtCom-GmbH.DE ArtCom GmbH, Grazer Straße 8, D-28359 Bremen Voice +49 421 20419-44 / Fax +49 421 20419-10

Color for Desktop Icon Text
by Tim Ruehsen 05 Dec '02

05 Dec '02

Hi, i am looking for the possibility to change the color for the desktop icon text (text below the icons) without affecting the color of any other text. Reason: I would like to have a black desktop background (so need light text color) but anything else (e.g. window background) should be light (so i need black text color). So far i experimented with the switches of the control center but could find nothing to change the desktop icon text only. I would be pleased about a solution... thanks. Tim

Hey, I got this bug yesterday, but I didn't really understand what was going on. But now I know it has to be this problem. Normally I don't lock my screen at all, but my girlfriend was on my machine and she locked the KDE session and then she got the KDM login screen. First, I thought, that my X must have been crashed and restarted, and I logged in again. But after logging out some time later, I suddently was in the old session asking for the screensaver password. Now I understand, that KDE must have started a new X session on tty8, just after locking the KDE session... I can try to reproduce it this evening. If this is true, this is a major fault in KDE 3.0.4...

Panel background
by Ernesto Marquina 05 Dec '02

05 Dec '02

Hi there, I'm using SuSE Linux 8.0, with KDE 3.0.4. I've been trying to change the color background of the panel (taskbar), it has a light blue color as background, but I want to make it gray, or maybe light brown, or some other dark color. I went to panel options, and I see I can put a graphic background to some specific buttons of the panel, theres even an option to put a background image to the panel (which doesnt work, no matter which image you try to configure). But all I want is to configure a color to the WHOLE panel, not an image, not a graphic. How do I do that?
