KDE3.1 Kfax Menu Options Inaccessible
by Jethro Cramp 29 Jan '03

29 Jan '03

Afer upgrading to KDE3.1 the program Kfax doesn't work properly. It opens and views faxes fine but none of the menu options - such as print - work. They are all greyed out. Anybody else have the same problem? Jethro

Re: [suse-kde] [SOLVED] KDE3.1 - Icons got clobbered

Best > Fergus I wish there was a better way but you have to go into the kedit menu (which has been moved and is now accessed from K->Settings->Control Center -> Desktop -> Panels -> Menus -> Edit Kmenu) and then click on each entry missing an icon in the menu tree on the left hand side of the screen. Then for each one you have to click on the grey square icon box on the right hand side of the screen. This will bring up another window in which you select 'Other Icons' and then browse. Then you have to browse your way to the file you want and select it. This is a real chore for each missing icon. This happens everytime when updating KDE. I'm not one to gripe at SuSE normally but I think that as a service they could at least get this sorted in the SuSE KDE rpms. Jethro

KDE 3.1 Konqueror File Manager
by Graham Smith 28 Jan '03

28 Jan '03

Hi, Is anyone having the Konqueror File Manager crash on startup? I have yet to isolate the problem but it appears to be associated with previews. I disabled all the "Allow previews and Folder Icons Reflect Contents on protocols" in the Control Centre -->KDE Components --> File Manager --> Previews This stopped the File Manager crashing, so I assume that there is a library function missing. -- Regards, Graham Smith ---------------------------------------------------------

KDE3.1 Xinerama and taskbar
by Jethro Cramp 28 Jan '03

28 Jan '03

After upgrading to KDE3.1 the taskbar is confined to one of the two screens. Prior to this it spanned both screens. Can't see anywhere in control centre to change this. Anyone got any ideas? TIA, Jethro

kstart issue in 3.1
by Ben Rosenberg 28 Jan '03

28 Jan '03

Anyone have a clue how to use kstart to get applications to start borderless with KDE 3.1? I use to start it like this: kstart --alldesktops --skiptaskbar --type dock --ontop "kpager" Now no matter what options I try ..it just doesn't work and I can't seem to find any FAQ's on this or anything in any mailing list archive. Kinda sucks... On a better note. KDE 3.1 seems to be very, very nice. No show stoppers yet. -- Ben Rosenberg ---===---===---===--- mailto:ben@whack.org Tell me what you believe.. I'll tell you what you should see.

Changing KMenu Icon
by Bryce Hardy 28 Jan '03

28 Jan '03

I switched icon sets to one that I downloaded from kde-look.org and it reverted the KMenu icon to a cog/"k". I want the SuSE menu icon back but there's no "preferences" or "properties" under the right-click context menu for it like there are for the other icons in the kicker. Is there a way I can change the icon back? -- Bryce Hardy (Santa Rosa, CA) brycehdy(a)sonic.net

Keramik
by Bill Wisse 27 Jan '03

27 Jan '03

Hi I want to use SuSE's keramik style and have clicked on >>Keramik>> in Control center>>Style. But all what changes is a bit of colour. When I look in the Keramik package and click on some of the descriptions I see all different sorts of icons. Did I miss something ?

Removing Addresses from Auto-complete in Kmail
by Jethro Cramp 27 Jan '03

27 Jan '03

Does anyone know where Kmail stores all the addresses that it uses for auto completing e-mail addresses? I thought that it was in kmailrc but deleting addresses from there doesn't make any difference. Have tried grepping all the files in .kde looking for offending address but to no avail. TIA, Jethro
