pixie
by Stefan Schlörholz 18 Apr '03

18 Apr '03

Hello, I just synchronized the ftp.suse.com files for KDE3 with my files. Then I installed everyhing. Now I am missing pixieplus. It was provided by SuSE but where is it now? I could not find it. I thought it is official part of the KDE environment? Does someone still have the latest version of it for SuSE 7.3? Thanks in advance Stefan

liquid style update
by Stefan Schlörholz 17 Apr '03

17 Apr '03

Hello, today I updated the liquid style accidentally. Now I run liquid-0.9.6pre4-51. Some things improved compared to, I guess it was liquid -0.9.6pree4-4, but in general I must say that I do not like the new one too much. The scrollbars look to old fashioned. They are too squary and the arrows are too fat. The round ones were much better, more liquid ;-) And I do not know what the zones in the middle of the scrollbars are good for. I also can not get back my good old stripy design of the kpanel which. Does anybody have the old liquid-rpm for me for a SuSE 7.3? It would be nice if someone can share it with me. cu Stefan

Hi I'm running SuSE 8.2 under KDE 3.1.1 with all libxml(1&2), libxml-devel(1&2) packages with came with the distro installed. I want to upgrade opera-6.03 (which came with the distribution) with the new released 7.1 but the operation fails due to missing dependencies in libxml.so.2. Does anyone know which package could contain this library? Under SuSE 8.1 I could install opera 7.1 whitout problems. Thank you.

kmozilla in konq
by David Herman 17 Apr '03

17 Apr '03

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Konq is working pretty well for me with khtml but if I try to use kmozilla as the viewer all i get is a status bar (in the middle of the window, not at the bottom) and no page display. Any tips or hints? Does kmozilla work for others? Sorry to reply to my own post but I wanted to add that in my case, switching from khtml to kmozilla then back to khtml then closing konq's window when I'm done seems like a sure way to get a segfault out of konq. suse 8.1, kde 3.1.1, xfree86 4.2 - -- dh Don't shop at GoogleGear.com! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+njVIBwgxlylUsJARAkOWAKCUaFpQEZZSlahmoird2C8En92KLgCeLDwO Cf0Gn9o9WuXv5YCK8E/V0VY= =3OPD -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Problem with KDE 3.1.1 update from SuSe
by Robert Maier 17 Apr '03

17 Apr '03

Hello, A short introduction, since it is the first time I post to this list: My name is Robert Maier, I am using SuSe from version 7.3, I currently use SuSe 8.1 with KDE 3.1.1. There seems to be a quite annoying discrepancy between the description file accompanying the new KDE 3.1.1 supplementary update on the SuSe ftp site and the actual packets. One easy way to verify the existence of the problem is to look up the kdebase3 package both in the description file and the packet file. You will notice that (currently) the build version in the description file is 33, while the avaiable packet has build version 62. The problem persists for some time now, I know there have been previous posts on this subject. Initially I encountered this problem when upgrading from KDE 3.0.5 (default in SuSe 8.1) to KDE 3.1.0 and messed it up quite bad because then even the links were screwed up (the links pointed to inexistent packet files, because of the version discrepancy). The links problem seems to be corrected. However, the discrepancy is still there. If you update to the current KDE, the newly installed packets will appear newer (3.1.1-62) than the ones YOU thinks that are available on the FTP site (3.1.1-33).

applet sections in kicker
by Stefan Schlörholz 16 Apr '03

16 Apr '03

Hello, where can I configure how applets dock into the kicker bar? For every new applet kicker opens a new section (with devider and arrow). Existing applets, e.g kmix and klipper appear in a common section without devider. I would like to have applets (at least some of them like clock and logout) in just one section together with the kmix and klipper icon (with only one devider i.e between task bar and my section). Where can I configure that behaviour or do I have to change the .desktop files? If so. how? cu Stefan

YaST2
by ovidiu pascui 14 Apr '03

14 Apr '03

Hi I have a problem with YaST2 in SuSE 8.2 Professional: if I want to install some software from the installation CD's and the package has a dependency problem a window pops-up asking what to do to resolve the dependencies, after that another window pops-up asking if I want to apply the changes and here I have to possibilities: "OK" and "Cancel". No mather which button I click this window pops-up again and again and I have to kill yast2 to get rid of it. Does anybody experienced the same problem? I have this issue on a system which was upgraded from SuSE 8.1 and on a system on which I did a clean install.

by Stefan Schlörholz 14 Apr '03

14 Apr '03

Hello, in kaddressbook I have problems importing the birthday from a csv file. For any item I selected unquoted during the import procedure. It doesn't work with the plain text option either. How can I import the birthday? Do I have to change the birthday format in the csv file first? To which? Now I use dd.mm.yyy (German KDE). Can I change Additionally not all kaddressbook fields (from within the contact editor) are availbale in the import dialog, e.g. category, URL. Can I determine somewhere which fileds (or all) are available in the import dialog? sunny regards Stefan
