This might be an issue. But experience tells me that if I use a new version of the driver and then it´s working, the problem is related to the driver. Of course it might be possible that the settings (old / new driver) are slightly different, but even then, it´s still an issue of the driver version. I ran sax2 afterwards and with the old driver, it didn´t work, with the new one it works. So I guess this is something we should tell the you-people. Do not forget that we´re talking about something subjective here: If I say that the fonts appeared much bigger under 10.0 before solving it, you could have another opinion about that. btw: please keep an eye of the recepient - you should always reply to the list!

Different Font Sizes on same KDE
by Dennis Neumeier 09 Feb '06

09 Feb '06

Hello! I am using two SuSE versions on the same PC: 9.3 and 10.0. I updated both of them with the supplementary-packages from ftp.gwdg.de, which means that both versions are now using KDE 3.5.0 level a. Both version are using the same /home-partition. I am havin problems with font sizes. When I log on with the same user, fonts on 10.0 appear much bigger than on 9.3. The font settings in the control center are exactly the same (should be if both are using the same /home-partition...). The resolution is also exactly the same. Both versions were updated with the nvidia drivers via yast online update (although I am not quite sure if 10.0 configured them correctly - and I am writing this mail with 9.3, so no check possible right now). Can anybody here think where the problem is? Greets, Dennis Neumeier

Hello SuSE people, Somehow I have lost the option to open a URL in kmail with firefox. It uses konqueror instead, I think that I have looked everywhere to change that behavior. Probably just missing it. Anybody can guide me? Bob S

Development with Qt
by William H Lugg 09 Feb '06

09 Feb '06

Just out of curiosity how do those of you that do Qt based development deal with the likely version mismatch between the Qt system libraries (in /usr/lib and likely other places) and the libraries used for development? For example, I'm using Qt 3.3.5 at work on a SuSE 9.2 system that uses Qt libs at version 3.3.3 (or something like that). We install the latest version of Qt 3 in /usr/local/qt and build. Then we add the appropriate lines to .profile to point the compiler and apps that we build to the right location for the 3.3.5 version. Our apps depend on MySQL so we build the qsqlmysql plugin too. We seem to have intermittent problems with the apps going to the wrong library location for libqsqlmysql.so. Do you overwrite the older delivered libs with the built ones? It seems like that would be a problem with version mismatches. Further, when you deliver an app do you customarily deliver the newer Qt libraries for the app and leave the system libs alone? Thanks. -- Bill Lugg Milstar Software Support Peterson AFB, CO

Thanks a lot for an advice. ----- Original Message ----- From: Joshua Raphael Fuentes To: Yuriy Chumak Sent: Tuesday, February 07, 2006 5:16 AM Subject: Re: [suse-kde] KDE 3.5.1 on the SuSE 9.0 if you really wanna use the new versions of KDE, I suggest you use the new versions of SUSE too.. either 9.3 or 10.

What controls "autostart"?
by Lennart Börjeson 06 Feb '06

06 Feb '06

Whenever I insert a CD or DVD in my reader/burner, two things happen: 1) An application is automatically launched (kaffeine for DVDs, kscd for CDs etc) 2) A popup window asks me what to do. These two things are seemingly totally independent, because no selection I make in the second case changes the first. What settings control the autostart feature? Where are they stored? What GUI:s exist? -- !++ ! Lennart Börjeson ! Partner, Developer ! Cinnober Financial Technology AB ! Industrigatan 2A ! S-112 46 STOCKHOLM !

I'm using the EasyShare CX6330 in DigiKam, and it has no problem finding the camera. The problem is when I actually select the camera and try to pull in the pictures.

Re: [suse-kde] Firefox and WMV Files SOLVED
by William H Lugg 05 Feb '06

05 Feb '06

Well, I finally got a chance to get things working better. I went into Control Center and went to the KDE Components > File Associations. There I was able to select several video formats, including WMV files and change the order of apps offered, putting MPlayer on top. Now, when I click on a WMV file, Firefox asks me what to do and offers MPlayer first.
