by Markus Kohli 20 Feb '03

20 Feb '03

This time right away in english... I have one more problem with my SuSE KDE, i.e. KDM. WIth KDE 3.0.x there was that nice xconsole-frame below the login field in KDM... Where'd it go? Or even better, how do I get it back? Markus -- If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?

Until now, i didn't know that it was possible to have more then one source .. The only thing we need now is a sort of yast -i search package on the command line :) -- m. vr. gr.

Re: [suse-kde] KDE 3.1 und SuSE-Icons?
by Markus Kohli 19 Feb '03

Ooops.... Sorry. Thought I was posting to the german list. My fault.... Wont happen again, promised ;-) So.... I have the following problem: Since I updated to KDE 3.1 (using the SuSE-Packages, after all!) I can't get back my SuSE-icons. I know where they are (below /opt/kde3 aso), but I'm really not eager to assign each and every single icon by hand... It's not possible to install them as a new icon theme, either, since there's no icon-archive around... If anybody could help me... I'm really desperate...

Confused
by sven sandin 19 Feb '03

19 Feb '03

Hi Thank you all for useful tips on an earlier inquiry on the KDE 3.1 installation. Richard Bos: I followed your advice on using the apt. A nice piece of software that solved the entire process smoothly without any problems. I find the KDE 3.1 runs more efficiently and with less bugs than my previous installation SuSE 8.0 + KDE 3.04. However I encountered the following: Having installed KDE 3.1 I did get an icon on the K-menu allowing me to login to another user GUI desktop. Using <alt>F7 and <alt>F8 it was possible to switch between different logins. I did not have this facility before the KDE 3.1 installation. Now the icons has disappeared again. Do anyone know about this ? I have never seen any commercials for this nice feature and would really like to get it back again. Greateful for any help or information Sven

[suse-kde] KDE 3.1 und SuSE-Icons?
by Markus Kohli 19 Feb '03

19 Feb '03

Hallo Liste Folgendes Problem: Seit dem Update auf KDE 3.1 (mit SuSE-Paketen, wohlgemerkt!) kann ich die SuSE-Icons nicht mehr holen, d.h. ich weiss zwar wo sie sind, und könnte sie auch einzeln zuordnen, aber ich kann das Symbol-Thema nicht über das Kontrollzenter zuweisen. Als neues Thema installieren kann ich auch nicht, da das Verzeichnis, wo die Icons drin liegen, halt kein Symbol-Archiv ist... Ich will meine Icons zurück! HILFE! Bin für jeden Hinweis dankbar... Markus

by Thomas Michalka 19 Feb '03

19 Feb '03

Hi, does anybody know how to get the SuSE-Menue back into kicker as it is in KDE2/SuSE7.3? I do not necessarily want them integrated into the K-Menue but just to have its root entry (shown as a chamaeleon) in the kicker. Can anybody please give me a hint how to proceed? Thanks, Thomas

Bad Bug - Konqi goes wild on RPM
by Peter B Van Campen 18 Feb '03

18 Feb '03

Hi Everyone, Twice now when I have had Konqi open to a local dir, when I single click (left) on a RPM package Konqi goes wild and brings the machine down. Details: SuSE 8.1 up to date via YOU, KDE 3.0.5, dual P-III 1.2GHz 512MB ram. Left clicking a RPM pkg in Konqi causes Konqi to start opening new Konqi instances continuiously and limitlessly; the proliferation of Konqi windows eventually kills the system. I've learned to Ctrl-Alt-Bkspace to kill X before the system crashes. Inever seen anbything like this ever before, and I hope never again! Anyone seen this? Can anyone offer any help? Drownded in redundancy ............... PeterB -- -- Proud to be a SuSE Linux User since 5.2 --

kde3.1 - konqueror crashes when reading html
by Matt T. 16 Feb '03

16 Feb '03

Hi all, with most rc's and also with the latest snapshots (post release, on SuSE 8.1) of kde3.1 konqueror runs as file manager, but not as html browser. Whenever I want to open a html page, remote or local, by typing in the url or by clicking on a file, konqeror crashes without an error message. When I installed the rpm's from kde for SuSE 8.1 it worked fine. However because kdm was not so nice with the rpm's and most of all because konsole and kword did not run anymore I did install the latest snapshots of kde3.1 (just libs and base though). Now konsole works, kdm rocks, and I can use konq as filemanager, but not as browser. OK, I can use Opera, which is the best anyway, but it is still annoying. Any ideas? I haven't seen this reported, so may be it is just a local configuration issue. Thanks, Matt
