Bad signatures in XFree86 4.3.0
by Filip Pistovcak 19 May '03

19 May '03

Hi, I'm am newbie with SuSE 8.0. I downloaded KDE 3.1.1 and XFree86 4.3.0 as rpm-files from ftp.suse.com <ftp://ftp.suse.com/> and somehow installed it. Unfortunately too late, I read that it is possible to check the internal signature with rpm -checksig *.rpm The KDE files were OK, but XFree86 4.3.0 files failed. Did anybody notice it too? Regards, Filip

KDE 3.1.1 Konsole displays empty window
by eimann＠informatik.uni-bonn.de 19 May '03

19 May '03

Hi, I've got two machines with a SuSE 8.1 distribution installed. The distribution was shipped with KDE 3.0.3 and XFree 4.2.0. I've updated both machines with XFree 4.3.0 (rpms provided by SuSE) and KDE 3.1.1 (rpms privided by SuSE as well)... On bot boxes /sbin/conf.d/SuSEconfig.fonts hung for ages, so that I had to terminate the fc-cache process manually. This resulted in no longer being able to login with KDM. The screen showed the usual Xfree background with the mouse cursor as watch-symbol and kdm_greeter took 99% CPU-load. I've solved this problem, too, by deleting the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/*/fonts.cache-1.gz files and running /sbin/conf.d/SuSEconfig.fonts again (this time without problems). Now I can log in again, but certain fonts have vanished: opening a konsole window brings up an empty window,for example, at least, when I use the default fonts (small, medium, large, huge...). The cursor moves when I type, so I suppose it's just a fonts problem... sax2 has no fonts either. Can anybody help me with this? Didi anyone solve the problem before? Cheers, Raimund

customizing KDE menu
by Kay Zumbusch 18 May '03

18 May '03

Hi there. I'm using KDE 3.0 on my SuSE 8.1 system. I just installed a development IDE and some other software on it and tried to show links to these apps in my KDE menus. The new entries are shown in the KDE menu editor (as root user) but they do not appear in the menus. My KDE menu editor shows a lot more entries then the menu shows. Are the links shown in the menu and in the menu editor stored in different locations? I already tried to copy the created links (I found them in /root/.kde/share/applnk) to /opt/kde3/share/applnk and restarted KDE. But nothing helped a bit. What do I have to do to make my new entries visible in the menu? Where is the menu layout stored on the hard disk? Can anyone please help me? I hate to continue starting my programs via a shell or via the "execute" menu item. And I don't want to have lots of icons on my desktop. Thx in advance. Kind regards Kay Zumbusch

KPilot sync question
by sargon 18 May '03

18 May '03

When I attempt to configure sync options in KPilot, all options except "sync files" are greyed out. I have deleted the kpilotrc file to force a force setup, but that doesn't help. KPilot 4.3.9 KDE 3.1.1 All are latest RPMs from SuSE. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

15 May '03

I think I created some confusion using 'Control Center'. When I try to browse the internet writing a URL on the Konqueror command line I get the following message: There appears to be a configuration error. You have associated Konqueror with text/html, but it can't handle this file type. Can someone Help me to put the things back in order? Thank you in advance, Fabio

It does match exactly one character, but at any position in the string to match.

KMail and Spam
by Konstantinos Georgokitsos 15 May '03

15 May '03

Is there a spam filter I can integrate into my KMail client? I am using KMail to directly receive mails from my pop3 server (couldn't get the combination with postfix and fetchmail to work according to the SuSE SDB description, but that's another story). Maybe Spamassassin? Kostas
