Changed behaviour of Konqueror Archive-Web-Page in KDE 3.53?
by Shriramana Sharma 10 Jun '06

10 Jun '06

Can anyone confirm this?: After upgrading to KDE 3.53, the Konqueror Archive-Web-Page tool no longer automatically converts spaces in the page title to underscores in the .war name. For example, with KDE 3.52, if I go to http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2006/09jun_moonlets.htm in Konqueror and use Tools - Archive Web Page, the Save Page As dialog used to fill-in the file name as NASA_-_Corkscrew_Asteroids.war but now it fills it in as NASA - Corkscrew Asteroids.war Can anyone confirm this? I would like to report a bug. The space-to-underscore feature should not have been removed. -- Tux #395953 resides at http://samvit.org playing with KDE 3.53 on SUSE Linux 10.1 $ date [] CCE +2006-06-10 W23-6 UTC+0530

Dual Screen
by Orn E. Hansen 09 Jun '06

I just upgraded my KDE to 3.5.3, after which I'm having a problem with dual screen. I can run my mouse over to the second screen, but there is no desktop appearing on it. What did there change in 3.5.3, that could affect this?

No new mails displayed in Kontact Overview
by Alex 08 Jun '06

08 Jun '06

Distro: SUSE 10.1 with KDE 3.5.3 (This problem exists for me for quite some time and quite a few SUSE- und KDE-updates, however.) The Kontact "Overview" (German name is "Übersicht", don't know if this is the right translation) always displays "No new mails" for my Mail account, regardless if there are lots of unread messages. The account is an IMAP account, and Kontact Overview is set up to watch the correct folders (Inbox) of this account. But obviously this doesn't work, for years now. This is surely not a big problem, but annoying.

kmail does not find backend for listing encryption-keys
by Sven Burmeister 07 Jun '06

07 Jun '06

Hello! I just noticed that my KDE 3.5.3-kmail does not offer encrypting emails anymore, which did work before. I had a look at the settings for the user and found that the assigned key from 3.5.1 was gone, so I tried to add it again. I am then told that kmail could not find any backends for listing the encryption keys. Since I did not delete any packages, but just updated, I wonder what caused this error. What packages could be missing in order to cause this error? Sven

KDE update for SuSE 9.3?
by Joachim Schönberg 06 Jun '06

06 Jun '06

Hello, I am new to this list. Noticed, that all KDE supplementary resources moved to opensuse.org Now I am unable to update my KDE (SuSE 9.3) any more. (was interested in 3.5.3) The solution described at http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/User does not work for 9.3 + YaST. Yast needs the yast-sorurce folder (and it's content) to add a new installation source. How to solve this? BTW: where have the KDE supplementary packages for 9.2 gone? I think, 9.2 is still not discontinued ... Joe

Splash screen for 10.1
by ianseeks 05 Jun '06

05 Jun '06

Looks good with its Suse 10.1 and KDE 3.5.1 - not so cleaver after you've installed KDE 3.5.3 and the splash screen still says KDE 3.5.1.

Java
by Jean-Pierre Abgottspon 04 Jun '06

Hi, 1. The other day I managed (thru your forum's help) to get Yast's Install & Remove option to install 'Java' on my PC. It all went superfine but for one thing. I can't see anything on my Desktop or anywhere else. 2. By toying with 'ls' and 'cd' commands (and their prefixes -a, -R, and so on) I came to discover that the whole thing was most likely stored in my PC in hidden files. 3. When activating the 'Find folders/files' option I finally got a global picture of my file: '///home/user' containing some 11 folders/files starting with 'Java...' and contained in a number of subfolders which are all displayed under 'point' name. Example:-folder: 'Java' in subfolder: .local/share/Trash/file/ -file: 'Java 1_5_0-sun-52887' in subfolder: .yast2/you/mnt/i386/update/ 4. Well to me it looks like it is all there and the only thing to do is to possibly drop the whole stuff on my Desktop with the 'save' option of this 'Find folders/files' application or move somehow each one of the 11 files onto my Desktop into a folder of it's own to be able to work with it. Does this make any sense ? Don't knock newbie. Tks. JP -- Laissez vos bits brouter librement sur le turf de Linux ! Lassen Sie doch Ihre Bits frei auf Linuxturf herumgrasen !

sysguard applet cannot connect
by Stefan Müller 04 Jun '06

04 Jun '06

Hi, After installing SuSE 10.1 the sysguard applet shows a broken connection and does not display values any longer. Any ideas about what could have gone wrong? What is the preferred method of connection? ssh, rsh or deamon? Thanks and greetings Stefan -- Stefan Müller Universität Potsdam Tel: (+49) (+331) 977-2180 http://www.cl.uni-bremen.de/~stefan/ http://www.cl.uni-bremen.de/~stefan/Babel/Interaktiv/

KDE 3.5.3: Differences between Packages in "SUSE Factory" and "supplementary KDE"
by Alex 02 Jun '06

02 Jun '06

I noticed that there are sometimes packages of the new KDE with different version info in the SUSE Factory and SUSE supplementary KDE repositories. I don't have a example at hand, but there were/are cases in which a packages from the factory repository are already several days old, but nevertheless has still a higher version number than even the most recent package from the KDE repository. Is this correct, or are there different versioning schemes for these repositories? Also the x86_64 packages of Amarok have quite some strange dependancies on 32 bit libraries, at least when I try to install them with smart. (I have dumped YaST for handling this stuff - the new package management is simply a pain.) And one last point: Are the KDE packages compiled with debug info? Never had to download so much megabytes for my KDE experience... But nevertheless, I'm glad that SUSE is still providing the newest KDE packages so fast! I was a bit disappointed when this Novell/Gnome stuff came up, good that KDE is still supported so gooD!
