where is kuickshow?
by Mario Streiber 06 Mar '04

06 Mar '04

Hi all, after updating to kde 3.2 I am missing kuickshow. The prog is in kdegraphics3-viewer-3.1-71.i586.rpm, but with installing kdegraphics3-extra-3.1.5-0.i586.rpm it is removed. I liked kuickshow because it was so easy with this program browsing the images of one directory just with PgUp and PgDn, without loading each one manually. I took all these rpm's from the KDE upgrade directories of a suse mirror. Is there any other package which contains kuickshow that can be installed besides kdegraphics3-extra? Regards Mario

Incomplete KMail Backup and v1.5.4
by Mike McCallister 05 Mar '04

05 Mar '04

Hi folks! I did a bad thing, and I hope I don't have to pay too dearly. Before upgrading to SuSE 9.0, I tried to do the right thing and copied my Home/Mail directory to the Windows side of my box. I didn't backup any of the config files, but I thought that would be OK. I can live with recreating filters, as long as my mail was intact. During the install, YaST asked me if I wanted to get the latest updates, and kindly updated several KDE packages, including KDEPIM. Once loaded, I ran KMail to create a new Home/Mail directory (as I've done before in these situations), then copied the contents of the other Mail dir back into the new setup. Now for the good part: instead of KMail grunting a bit and then displaying my old folders intact and ready to go, I got nothing! Opening the Mail dir in Konqueror showed my old friends in their accustomed hidden index folders and files, but KMail's default folders (Inbox, outbox, sent-mail, etc.) were no longer hidden. A look in this list's archives pointed me to the kmailrc file, where now each recognized mail folder has a section (This may have been true before, but I'm skeptical). Is there anything I can do to restore these old mail-dirs, and begin to reconstruct my filters? Just un-hiding them didn't work. TIA, Mike McCallister

I had a similar problem when, for other reasons I created a new user for myself and copied the original ~/Mail directory. If you are sure the filesystem has the old directories included in your Mail dir, try the following You may find other missing folders by ensuring that every "~/Mail/.folder.directory" has a corresponding "~/Mail/folder/" where folder may be several levels deep When you are happy that the filesystem is complete open Kmail or Kontact/Mail and simply try to recreate any subfolder that is not displayed KMail will report an error in a dialog but continue anyway and if this works as it did for me, all the subfolders at that level should then be displayed I'm afraid I'm typing this from memory so I cannot be more detailed or exact Also, I have no idea why this works - perhaps some of our more experience friends on this list can shed some light hth -- Sylvanus A.

X-Window and Tomcat
by Murat Akca 05 Mar '04

05 Mar '04

Hi; We are developing a server side program which creates images on the fly. We are using Java and Tomcat web server and we must start Tomcat as root.But for security reasons machine must be started as a system user. So we need to execute these commands before Tomcat start ups. -xauth merge /home/user/.Xauthority -export DISPLAY=:0.0 We write a start up script which executes these commans before Tomcat starts.And we add this script at runlevel 5. I know that at runlevel 5 X-Window system is available.But program could not create images and gives this exception: -Could not connect to X-Window ????? When we execute these commands manually after start up and start Tomcat manually again.Program works great. I could not find any solution.Do u have any ideas? Thanks . Murat Akca

Kile and TeX Live
by Dominik Sack 05 Mar '04

05 Mar '04

Kile is a LaTeX Editor for KDE (http://kile.sf.net). As far as the documentation is concerned, Kile should work with any LaTeX distribution. But when installing Kile via rpm, the system tells me that tetex and some other TeX-related packages (dviutils, e.g.) are required. However, I am using TeX live and I don't want to install a second LaTeX system. (The same problem occurs when installing Lyx - http://www.lyx.org/) How can I suggest Kile and/or Lyx to install using TeX live instead of tetex as LaTeX program?

kontact newsticker not working
by randy stanislav 03 Mar '04

03 Mar '04

I'm having trouble getting the newsticker to work in Kontact. Running Suse 8.2 and the KDE 3.2 rpms from the Suse site. Newsticker runs fine as stand-alone. Newsticker plug-in seems to be installed OK. When I try to configure from the Kontact settings, urls don't persist after I hit apply. I've seen some mail in other groups about the need for "dcoprss" but can't find the package that might provide it. Appreciate any held...thanks in advance. Randy Stanislav

Problem compiling KDE programs AGAIN.
by Ben Rosenberg 03 Mar '04

03 Mar '04

Well, for God sakes. It seems like every other update to KDE causes all configure scripts to puke saying that kdelibs3 must be installed first before one can compile. And yes, I have the -devel stuff installed. It seems to be an every other build thing. THIS is why I've taken to using my powerbook 90% of the time. Arrgh! - Ben -- Linux User #147972 ---===--- mailto:ben@whack.org -- "There is no need to teach that stars can fall out of the sky and land on a flat Earth in order to defend religious faith."
