KDE 3.2.x - screen freeze / update
by udo 08 May '04

08 May '04

Hello list, just to recall the item: SuSE 8.1, KDE 3.2..x: when logging out, I get a screen freeze. As somebody noted on the list, this happens on SuSE 8.2 as well (do not know, whether 9.0 is concerned as well). I got some useful hints, such as from Mario: ---start quote To prevent this problem at logout, add TerminateServer=false in the [X-*-Core] section of /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc. ---end quote However, this is not helping at all, it is definitely not a driver/XFree problem. What is really happening: -> change in the control center some settings concerning colours, background or whatever. -> log out -> screen freeze / crash If i am logged in as root, my root reiserfs partition is corrupted, and if I am logged in as user, the user reiserfs partition is corrupted due to the necessary reset ! As long as you do not to change any settings, the screen frees does not show up. It seems (with my limited knowledge) that KDE is trying to write some configuration files at logout which makes the system going out for lunch. I am interested in your ideas... Regards, Udo

Qt [latest] upgrade and celestia
by Andre Lourenco 29 Apr '04

29 Apr '04

Hi! I'm using SL9 with kde from supplementary. After latest Qt upgrade (29-04), celestia no longer works: Unable to resolve GL/GLX symbols - please check your GL library installation. celestia: ERROR: Communication problem with celestia, it probably crashed. I re-installed nvidia 5336, but same problem I recompiled celestia, this time without kde support (glut only), and it worked flawlessly! So.. I think that this have something to do with this latest upgrade... BTW: I also tried celestia from SL9 CD5, but same problem (it used to work days ago). Also: i have 3D working for everything else: glxgears: +/- 1300FPS (just like before) Quake3, UT99, tuxracer working great glxinfo: name of display: :0.0 display: :0 screen: 0 direct rendering: Yes server glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation server glx version string: 1.3 server glx extensions: GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, GLX_SGIX_pbuffer, GLX_SGI_video_sync, GLX_SGI_swap_control client glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation client glx version string: 1.3 client glx extensions: GLX_ARB_get_proc_address, GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_EXT_import_context, GLX_SGI_video_sync, GLX_NV_swap_group, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, GLX_SGIX_pbuffer, GLX_SGI_swap_control, GLX_NV_float_buffer GLX extensions: GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, GLX_SGIX_pbuffer, GLX_SGI_video_sync, GLX_SGI_swap_control, GLX_ARB_get_proc_address OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation OpenGL renderer string: GeForce4 MX 440 with AGP8X/AGP/SSE OpenGL version string: 1.4.1 NVIDIA 53.36 OpenGL extensions: GL_ARB_imaging, GL_ARB_multitexture, GL_ARB_point_parameters, GL_ARB_point_sprite, GL_ARB_texture_compression, GL_ARB_texture_cube_map, GL_ARB_texture_env_add, GL_ARB_texture_env_combine, GL_ARB_texture_env_dot3, GL_ARB_texture_mirrored_repeat, GL_ARB_transpose_matrix, GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object, GL_ARB_vertex_program, GL_ARB_window_pos, GL_S3_s3tc, GL_EXT_texture_env_add, GL_EXT_abgr, GL_EXT_bgra, GL_EXT_blend_color, GL_EXT_blend_minmax, GL_EXT_blend_subtract, GL_EXT_clip_volume_hint, GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_array, GL_EXT_draw_range_elements, GL_EXT_fog_coord, GL_EXT_multi_draw_arrays, GL_EXT_packed_pixels, GL_EXT_paletted_texture, GL_EXT_point_parameters, GL_EXT_rescale_normal, GL_EXT_secondary_color, GL_EXT_separate_specular_color, GL_EXT_shared_texture_palette, GL_EXT_stencil_wrap, GL_EXT_texture_compression_s3tc, GL_EXT_texture_cube_map, GL_EXT_texture_edge_clamp, GL_EXT_texture_env_combine, GL_EXT_texture_env_dot3, GL_EXT_texture_filter_anisotropic, GL_EXT_texture_lod, GL_EXT_texture_lod_bias, GL_EXT_texture_object, GL_EXT_vertex_array, GL_IBM_rasterpos_clip, GL_IBM_texture_mirrored_repeat, GL_KTX_buffer_region, GL_NV_blend_square, GL_NV_fence, GL_NV_fog_distance, GL_NV_light_max_exponent, GL_NV_packed_depth_stencil, GL_NV_pixel_data_range, GL_NV_point_sprite, GL_NV_register_combiners, GL_NV_texgen_reflection, GL_NV_texture_env_combine4, GL_NV_texture_rectangle, GL_NV_vertex_array_range, GL_NV_vertex_array_range2, GL_NV_vertex_program, GL_NV_vertex_program1_1, GL_NVX_ycrcb, GL_SGIS_generate_mipmap, GL_SGIS_multitexture, GL_SGIS_texture_lod, GL_SUN_slice_accum glu version: 1.3 glu extensions: GLU_EXT_nurbs_tessellator, GLU_EXT_object_space_tess visual x bf lv rg d st colorbuffer ax dp st accumbuffer ms cav id dep cl sp sz l ci b ro r g b a bf th cl r g b a ns b eat ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 0x21 24 tc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 0 0 24 8 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x22 24 dc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 0 0 24 8 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x23 24 tc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 8 0 24 8 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x24 24 tc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 0 0 24 8 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x25 24 tc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 8 0 24 8 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x26 24 tc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 0 0 16 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x27 24 tc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 8 0 16 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x28 24 tc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 0 0 16 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x29 24 tc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 8 0 16 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x2a 24 tc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 0 0 0 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x2b 24 tc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 8 0 0 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x2c 24 tc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 0 0 0 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x2d 24 tc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 8 0 0 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x2e 24 dc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 8 0 24 8 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x2f 24 dc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 0 0 24 8 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x30 24 dc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 8 0 24 8 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x31 24 dc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 0 0 16 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x32 24 dc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 8 0 16 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x33 24 dc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 0 0 16 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x34 24 dc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 8 0 16 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x35 24 dc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 0 0 0 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x36 24 dc 0 32 0 r y . 8 8 8 8 0 0 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x37 24 dc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 0 0 0 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None 0x38 24 dc 0 32 0 r . . 8 8 8 8 0 0 0 16 16 16 16 0 0 None thanks Andre Lourenco ____________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

Hi, I've just upgraded the stock KDE from SuSE 9.0 to KDE 3.2.1 provided by SuSE. There's a small problem though: I can't seem to find Kmail/Kontact ;-) And I badly need it!

Keyboards, mice & KDE
by BandiPat 26 Apr '04

26 Apr '04

Hi all, I have a user with an interesting KDE problem I've never seen before. The mouse is an optical MS Intellimouse and keyboard standard win keyboard. The problem is that anytime you press & hold any key on the keyboard, the mouse pointer/cursor goes wanky, while in KDE 3.1.5. Otherwise, the mouse works without problems, totally normal. All settings appear to be correct both using Sax2 and YaST2 for selecting the mouse & keyboard. Thoughts, tips, suggestions?

LDAP configuration for KAdressbook to Windows AD?
by Lennart Börjeson 23 Apr '04

23 Apr '04

What do I need to do in order to get LDAP queries from KAdressbook to a Windows AD server to work? (I know next to nothing about LDAP. By searching the web I've gathered that it should be possible. I found quite a few "yes, Ive done it" but no explanations how.) I gather I might both need to do some configuration on the Windows server and in KAddressbook. Anyone who've done it and can share some guidance?. /Lennart -- !++ ! Lennart Börjeson ! Partner, Developer ! Cinnober Financial Technology AB ! Industrigatan 2A ! S-112 46 STOCKHOLM !

Possible dumb kde 3.3 question?
by Bernard Elbourn 22 Apr '04

22 Apr '04

Hi I tested a KDE 3.3 upgrade on my Suse 8.2 using the official packages and was suprised to get the following: error: failed dependencies: libraw1394.so.5 is needed by kdebase3-3.2.1-10 kdebase3-SuSE <= 9.0 conflicts with kdebase3-3.2.1-10 libexif.so.9 is needed by digikam-0.6.0-86 libFLAC++.so.2 is needed by k3b-0.11.6-8 libFLAC.so.4 is needed by k3b-0.11.6-8 libid3-3.8.so.2 is needed by k3b-0.11.6-8 libfribidi.so.0 is needed by kdegraphics3-3.2.1-11 libexif.so.9 is needed by kdegraphics3-kamera-3.2.1-11 libgnokii.so is needed by kdepim3-3.2.1-9 tidy is needed by quanta-3.2.0-37 This is after I have done a full security update, and loading the qt and libs rpm. How do I find the rpm's which will have the right dependancies for the above? Looking at the base dependancy am I really asked to system update to Suse 9? More importantly...have I done something wrong? Berni
