root login disabled for kdm
by Baks 02 Jun '04

02 Jun '04

I'm running suse 9.0 with kde 3.1.4 that comes with suse. I recently changed the file permissions in Yast from easy to secure. Since then I have failed to login kde as root though I can login as root on the console. I changed the permission back to easy but still I can't login as root. I've seen similar cases on the mailinglists but all solution they are giving are not helping me, i.e., /opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc should be a simbolic link to /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc. I also checked that I have AllowRootLogin=true in /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc. I don't know if there is anything more I need to check. Baks __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Can't find YaST
by Mike Blonder 01 Jun '04

01 Jun '04

Hi. I've downloaded the RPMs from SuSE to upgrade KDE to 3.2 from the 3.14 that ships with SuSE 9.0. I cannot finish installing the .RPMs as once I installed kdebase3 and removed old konqueror, kate, etc KDE 3.2 lost YaST as default installer for .rpm files. Anyone know the x app to call for YaST2? It appeared to be /sbin/YaST2 but it isn't working. I get the prompt to enter admin password, but nothing happens from then on. Alternatively, does anyone know the shell syntax for rpm to remove old conflicting copies as well as to install the new apps, etc? I am using rpm -ivh <file>.rpm it tells me the conflicting files but then bombs. Thanks Mike

some questions before I upgrade to kde-3.2.2
by Rob 31 May '04

31 May '04

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, I was thinking of upgrading my SuSE-9.0 to KDE-3.2.2 (using 3.2.0 now). So I downloaded all the packages from a KDE mirror. Going through the list of files raised some questions I'd like to have answered before I start, though... I hope you can help. 1) kdebindings seems to be missing There are no packages kdebindings3-*-3.2.2. ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_9.0/applicati… lists kdebindings3-*-3.1.4. The KDE-3.2.2 info page does list a kdebindings-3.2.2. Do I install the 3.1.4 packages? 2) languagepack is called *.src.rpm All languagepacks are named as source rpms. `rpm -qpl' looks okay, though, so I guess this should have just been *.noarch.rpm. Just install it? 3) kde-3.2.2 contained bugs The KDE-3.2.2 info page shows some bugs. Since the SuSE-KDE packages date from before the official KDE-3.2.2 release date, I guess those bugs are still present in the packages? And now that I'm sending this mail anyway, could someone explain to me why SuSE chooses to split up all KDE packages into smaller (but more) chunks?

further issues with 3.2.x
by Mike Blonder 31 May '04

31 May '04

Hi. I have found the following additional issues with KDE 3.2.x running with my SuSE 9.0 distribution: 1) MSFonts have been altered. Bold is blurred on my display (Dell Trinitron CRT 19") 2) Windows do not come up sized uniformly. For example, I am unable to modify panel attributes from the KControl application since I cannot see the bottom of the window to click on OK. What is the shell command to change panel attributes? 3) Right mouse hovers over icons in the panel and elsewhere do not "evaporate" when the mouse is moved away. <escape> does not remove them either. This is particularly vexing in the panel area as the titles obscure other icons that I need. Mike

Programs autostarting twice
by mozatlan elven 30 May '04

30 May '04

After upgrading to the latest Gaim via apt, Gaim now starts up twice when logging into KDE. I have checked the autostart directory, but nothing is in there. I have closed Gaim, logged out (forcing the session to save), and logged back in. Gaim (as it should) does not start. If I then start Gaim, log out, then log back in, Gaim starts twice. Any ideas? Running SuSE 9.1 with all upgrades and patches applied via apt. _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself with the new version of MSN Messenger!

Mouse pointer problem in KDM (SuSE 9.1)
by Mike Béla 30 May '04

I changed the mouse pointer theme for root and every common user, and I also changed the default mouse pointer in YaST's sysconfig editor (SuSE 9.1). But the KDM login manager does'nt follows these settings. In KDM the mouse pointer remains the unthemed one. I never met this bug under SuSE 9.0. -Bela-

Kmail Toolbar Icons
by David Herman 29 May '04

29 May '04

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I would like to put a "select all" button on my kmail toolbar. It is easy to add the "select all" action to the toolbar, but since "select all" doesn't have an image/icon associated with it the icon that appears on the toolbar is a nondescript kind of generic page icon. I looked in the ~/.kde/icons... directory but many of the icons aren't really named the same as the action they represent (although most are close). It seems that the image and action are being associated in some other way. How can I find out the name that I need to give an icon in order to associate it with an action? - -- dh -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAt/X2BwgxlylUsJARAv0gAJ4qmD8B95U6oGthjGoI5GpLtkfLeACbB+jO 83aqAYn1JnuIqr9O8hnvif0= =zQ4r -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

I wanna a Greek keyboard
by Dos Wizard 28 May '04

28 May '04

Hello out there, it seems that I am asking too much, from an automated installer like sax. While it generates ok, the XF86Config file something is missing. I need to have a keyboard with English and Greek characters, being toggled via the usual alt+shift combination ... so I use the appropriate KDE tool, and I set up both languages, having the afforementioned language switch combination selected also into the appropriate window ... So I have both languages but I can't switch between them via keyboard, I need to do this by clicking the appropriate icon on the taskbar, pretty annoying and misleading too. I have checked manually a few files, and I did a quick search over the net, so it seems that I have to modify XF86Config manually for the X-Server to understand what I want to do. KDE generated kxkbrc is looking fine but this isn't enough. By the way el isn't available into the xfree86 keyboard definition file. So I would need a little help from you, how I can create the proper settings and put them in there? I am using SuSE 9.0 pro Thank you in advance Nicholas

Saving "Text Under Icon" settings
by Chris Cameron 28 May '04

28 May '04

Moved from Gentoo/Gnome to SuSE/KDE and I'm working my way to getting things the way I like them. One problem I've run across is certain applications and/or windows not saving my "Text Under Icons" for my icons. Specifically, in KMail, if I double click a message, set "Text Under Icons", close the window, and then reopen it, it's back to just the icon. Does anyone know why this setting isn't being saved? Or better yet, a way to set this globally? Seems very trivial I know, but it's something that seems too simple and it not working is bugging me a lot. Thanks, Chris

Hi, Abbey Business won't let me login using Konqueror (which is 3.2.2). Try this site and click on logon: http://www.anbusiness.com/ You get: An error occurred while loading https://www.anbusiness.com/weblogic/FNG/jsp/logon.jsp: Connection to host www.anbusiness.com is broken Funny thing is that the Abbey National domestic customer site DOES work. Can anyone see why they are bomming us out.

In meantime I will use Firefox which seems to work just fine. Berni

Ark issue with 3.2.2

I was having a problem with Ark after my KDE upgrade to 3.2.2. I removed Karchiver and fixed the Ark issue (Ark could not fork a decompressor). Now I do not have the 'Extract Here' or 'Extract To' menu options under 'Actions' when right clicking a compressed file. Has anyone experience getting these actions items back into the right-click menu? Thanks /Carl

Opening several files with Konqueror in Quanta
by Novalis 21 May '04

21 May '04

Hello to the list, I'm working a lot with different editors like Quanta, Bluefish etc. The problem is, that I often browse my hard-drive with Konqueror, clicking the files I want to open in Quanta for example. On my System (SuSE 9.0 / Quanta 3.3 BE 2 / KDE 3.2.2) this opens a new instance of Quanta every time I click on it, restoring the opened files from the run before the actual instance of Quanta, what is really annoying :-( -- I don't want to use the built-in File-Browser of Quanta because of the much better Features of Konqueror. Anybody with the same problem and a solution? Already used google and browsed some forums - nothing. Greetings! Novalis

Konqueror directory browsing problem KDE 3.2.1 & SuSE 9.1
by Craig Patterson 19 May '04

19 May '04

While logged in as a non-root user, I can browse my home directory tree without a problem. If I try to browse the root directory, or it's subdirectories, Konqueror locks up. If I try to close it normally, it does nothing until it throws an error: Window with title "file:/ - Konqueror" is not responding. This window belongs to application konqueror (PID=31389, hostname=localhost). Do you wish to terminate this application? (All unsaved data in this application will be lost.) I just upgraded from SuSE 9.0 to 9.1. Didn't have this issue in 9.0.

Quick Browser bug - how to fix?
by Brad Austin 18 May '04

18 May '04

I'm currently upgrading from SuSE 8.2 to 9.1, and have run into a bug involving the KDE Quick Browser. When you add a Quick Browser button to the KDE panel, and then click on the added button, the top two items in the menu that appears are supposed to be "Open in File Manager" and "Open in Terminal". The latter is supposed to open a bash window with the cwd set to the path selected through the menu. This is how it worked in SuSE 8.2, and also how the KDE documentation at www.kde.org says it's supposed to work. Instead, the "Open in Terminal" is missing, and there are two copies of "Open in File Manager". And it's not just a matter of an incorrect label; clicking on either one opens the file manager, and there's no apparent way to get the "Open in Terminal" functionality at all. Doing a little research, I was able to find that this issue appears at least twice in the KDE bug list at bugs.kde.org, as bugs # 75893 and 80688. The comments from the KDE developers indicate that the bug does not exist in the official version of KDE, but only occurs in the SuSE distribution, as a result of something SuSE did on their end. What I was not able to find, however, and what I would like to know, is how to fix the problem. Presumably whatever SuSE did to break it should be undoable, but I don't want to have to throw out all the work that SuSE put into KDE by downloading a barebones version from kde.org and configuring everything from scratch. Is there some configuration file I can tweak, or some alternate RPM I can install in place of SuSE's version of whichever one contains the bug?

konqueror & java - suse 9.1

I've just updated my system to suse 9.1 and konqueror isn't able to run java anymore. The error I'm seeing in the konsole when I try to load a web page that's using java is: INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Some problem with the version 5 System error?:: No such file or directory I have konqueror set to use the java in /usr/lib/java/bin/java but it doesn't seem to find it even though I can go to the directory and execute it e.g. java -version and get: java version "1.4.2_03" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_03-b02) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_03-b02, mixed mode) Is there some other java I should be pointing konqueror to? Is there some permission issue I'm missing? Mozilla 1.6 runs the java web pages without difficulty. Grateful for any pointers. Thanks. Geoff

Kde 3.2.2 split screen and ATI SUSE 9.1
by Adolph & Sharon Weidanz 15 May '04

15 May '04

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I don't know for sure if this is a KDE or Xfree86 problem. I had it happen before under 9.0 w/ the 2.4.21-99 (I think) and I can't remember how I fixed it. I have a Gateway 600xl with the 17.1" lcd screen (Laptop). When I am in my normal users mode the screed is split off center. If you look at control center->background, in the picture in the upper right corner shows the background with a four way split about 200 pixels x, and 150 pixels y. If I put something over the split (say superkaramba theme) it will be moved the next time I log in. Other then that it doesn't seem to affect anything else. It is just annoying. When i installed suse it said the ati card was a rv250lf. I then installed the ATI drivers and it says that it supposed to be a rv250lg. I configured the ati drivers with flgxconfig and set everything up there. I ran glxgears and only see 240fps w/ 3d enabled. Also, even thought the touchpad is selected in Yast, I've lost the ability to click using the pad. The USB mouse, which also set up seems to work fine. Funny thing is the split doesn't show up in root mode.

How to change teh size of icons in the kde-menu
by Alistair Hamilton 14 May '04

14 May '04

Hi, all I have KDE3.2 on SUSE 9.1. I have spent ages digging around in the control centre but I can find nowhere to change the size of the icons in the main KDE menu. I think that they are 32x32 pixels. This means that the menu does not fit in a single vertical column in my 1280x1024 display, which is *very* annoying. Any help would be very welcome. Thanks Alistair

Logon problem on SuSE Linux 9.1 Professional

Hi, I have installed SuSE Linux 9.1 Professional recently and I am having a problem when trying to logon as a particular user. Here is what happens: I created a user as root and then logged on to the system KDE session and everything is OK. The next day I try to log in as that same user and no matter what window manager I choose I get back to the logon screen and cannot get anything started. If I create a new user as root again that user works fine without problems until the following day when I reboot my computer. Thank you for any advice. George Yahoo!

vector graphics
by Mario Streiber 14 May '04

14 May '04

Hi all, is there a KDE program available to create relatively simple vector graphics? I found Karbon14 in my menus but it crashes permanently. I also tried sodipodi but I don't like it very much. Don't know how to diplay sizes of existing objects. There is a context menu item called properties which seems to display this info, but I can't interpret it. If someone knows a good non-KDE program, please let me know. Mario

Konqueror HTML trouble
by Luca Pellegrini 14 May '04

14 May '04

Dear all, Konqueror has suddenly stopped displaying web pages correctly. It shows the HTML source instead. If I look in the View menu to try and reset ViewMode to KHTML, Viewmode is not there! The EditFileType under Edit Menu is dimmed. When I use Konqueror as file manager though, ViewMode comes back. If I login as root, Konqueror displays web pages just fine. Has someone come across this before? Apologies if it's a trivial problem, I'm new to Linux/KDE. I'n running KDE 3.1.4 and Suse v9.0. Thank you for the help, Luca ************************************************************************* Luca Pellegrini tel:+44-1223-766029 (office) Biochemistry Dept 027 (lab) Tennis Court Rd fax:+44-1223-766002 Cambridge University e-mail: luca(a)cryst.bioc.cam.ac.uk Cambridge CB2 1GA - UK *************************************************************************

./configure fehler: qt nicht gefunden (KDE 3.2.2)
by Konstantinos Georgokitsos 11 May '04

11 May '04

Ich wollte auf meiner SuSE 8.1. mit KDE 3.2.2 (von SuSE) kmldonkey kompilieren und bin schon beim ./configure auf die Nase gefallen: kmldonkey-0.10pre3> ./configure --prefix=/opt/kde3 checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu [...] checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.1 (20021021)) (library qt-mt) not found. Please check your installation! For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log. Make sure that you have compiled Qt with thread support! ./configure --prefix=/opt/kde3 --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/qt3 macht uebrigens keinen Unterschied. Natuerlich habe ich Qt installiert, bin aber nicht sicher ob SuSE thread support einbindet (nehme es aber an). Ich habe dann mal ./configure eines anderen Projekts ausprobiert (kalbum) und bekam die gleiche Fehlermeldung. Habe auch frueher oft selbstkompiliert, und habe den Eindruck dieses Problem ist erst nach dem update auf 3.2.2. aufgetreten, bin aber nicht 100% sicher. Hier noch meine qt-rpms: kmldonkey-0.10pre3> rpm -qa| grep qt qt3-extensions-3.3.1-24 qt3-postgresql-3.3.1-24 qt3-static-3.3.1-5 qt-2.3.2-328 qt3-non-mt-3.3.1-5 qt3-mysql-3.3.1-24 qt3-devel-tools-3.3.1-24 qt3-3.3.1-5 qt3-unixODBC-3.3.1-24 yast2-qt-2.6.23-43 qt3-examples-3.3.1-24 qt-devel-2.3.2-328 qt-designer-2.3.2-523 dcgui-qt-0.2.19-1 qt3-devel-3.3.1-5 qt3-man-3.3.1-24 qt3-devel-doc-3.3.1-5 qt3-devel-tutorial-3.0.5-81 Bin fuer jeden Hinweis dankbar.

problem with lan browser in kde3.2.2 and suse 9.1
by Christopher Lang 10 May '04

10 May '04

Folks, I just installed Suse 9.1 and with kde3.2.1 and kde 3.2.2 the lan browser does not work at all. smb:/ in Konqueror says something like internal error (Interner Fehler Bitte senden Sie einen ausführlichen Problembericht an http://bugs.kde.org Unbekannte Fehlerbedingung in stat: Das Netzwerk ist nicht erreichbar) and lan:/ says something like "internal error". (Protokoll wird nicht unterstützt lan). The lisa setup in the KDE control center is missing. Setting up Samba client in Yast does not help. Obviously I did somethig wrong during the installation or I forgot something. Any idea how to fix that is appreciated ! many thanks Chris

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

KDE print preview
by Charles Garcia-Tobin 07 May '04

07 May '04

Hello all I've just updated my kde libraries and base packages using Suse 9.0 YOU online update. KDE is now version 3.1.4. The update seems to have broken my KDE print preview. No matter what kde application I use the print preview displays a somewhat knackered window with only a print and cancel button along with a single line of scatered pixels which is supposed to represent the preview of the print.

RE: [suse-kde] Antwort: Re: [suse-kde] Problem with Konqueror and SMB-Browsing

I have a problem that may be similar though we can't be sure without seeing your screen shot.. :-) I can select the icon for local network, which will display icons for the domains. I can select a domain and it will display the workstations in the domain, but if I select a workstation, I receive an error dialog that tells me that there's an error, but that libsmbclient isn't reporting what it is. What's interesting is that if I specify the server/workstation name in the address bar like: smb://servername Konqueror will display the shares on that machine and let me in the shares.

konqueror demands for vim configuration
by "Stefan Schlörholz" 06 May '04

06 May '04

Hello, I upgraded my SuSE 7.3 with the latest KDE (SuSE) available for that version (I believ it to be 3.1.x) to a SuSE 8.2. When I want to connect to a URL, e.g. on the Internet I get the message that I should configure the 'vim' component in the KDE control center. Konqueror dos not display any site. It somehow opens a download window and downloads something into or as 'tmp' I never had that message before and I do not have any 'vim'-version installed. My other machine with SuSE 8.2 never had that issue (also no 'vim' version installed). What do I have to do? Any ideas what has changed during the update? Thanks in advance for your hints. I am happy to provide more details Stefan _______________________________________________________________________ ... and the winner is... WEB.DE FreeMail! - Deutschlands beste E-Mail ist zum 39.

KDE3.2.2 networking issues
by Hans du Plooy 05 May '04

05 May '04

Hi, Since upgrading my SUSE 9.0 Pro to KDE-3.2.2 (from the SUSE ftp server), I'm having a lot of trouble with some network related apps. On my home machine Konq's lan browsing is shakey at best. Also, trying ftp: or http: in konq causes it to crash. Clicking on the Konqueror browser icon brings up a KDE crash handler directly. Strangely, fish: works fine, but slow. On my workstation at work things are much worse. I have the above mentioned problems, but in adition to that KMail is so unstable it's completely unusable. Clicking on "send" would crash it immediately. Through Kontact things are a little better, but there crucial things are missing, like the KMail entry under settings. Does anybody else have any of these problems? Thank you Hans

2 different screens - how to setup ?
by Robert Rozman 02 May '04

02 May '04

Hi, I have sis 315 chipset with thomas winischofer vga drivers, suse 9.0, xfree 4.4, kdm and kde. I have dual video outputs (VGA and TV out) with xinerama switched off and getting two independent kde desktops on 2 screens . If I run top I get two separate X processes running. I'd like to have following setup: - screen 0 : KDE desktop with login screen for normal work - screen 1 : Media application (like Freevo, Mythtv) to be run without window manager in fullscreen I'd like to run always Freevo on screen 1 and have login screen and KDE desktop on screen 0. But I have several problems to achieve this setup: - my login screen is always displayed on my TV out, where I'd like to run Freevo and get login screen on 0 - if I run top I have two processes of X running. But I don't know where are this settings, from where kdm starts and spawns two X processes on two different screens and decides where to output login screen. I've tried with Xservers files but no difference (it says there that those settings are only if you have 2 different cards and not just screens). I'd kindly ask for any advice, help or pointers to more info... Regards, Robert.
