[opensuse-kde] Mailbox vs Maildirectory
by Bob S 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

Hi, Running 10.2 with Kmail 1.9.5 I have always saved email messages from past versions of SuSE. I now have an odd mix of Mailbox & Mail Directories. (About 100 under the local directory) Would like to convert them all to be the same. Don't know which I should use. What are the pro's and con's of either type?

[opensuse-kde] Stopping XMMS from starting at KDE start
by Johannes Kastl 03 May '07

03 May '07

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I have XMMS running most of the time. And I have it running when shutting down KDE, so next time I start my kde xmms gets started again. I thought I could stop that by using KControl=>KDE components=>Session (I hope i translated not to far from the english names, I use a german KDE here). But no matter what I write into there, xmms gets restarted. The corresponding line is in .kde/share/config/ksmserverrc, named excludeApps= What do I need to put into that line, to stop xmms from starting? I tried xmms CheckHardware "xmms*" xmms --sm-client-id xmms_playlist xmms xmms_player The link starting xmms in the K-Menu says CheckHardware --sound xmms Thanks, OJ - -- I'm not out to destroy Microsoft. That will just be a completely unintentional side effect.

[opensuse-kde] KDE packages
by kriko 30 Apr '07

30 Apr '07

Some time ago I posted this bug on bugs.kde.org: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143515 and it is marked as resolved, but I can still find it present on my two systems (both up-to-date). When it will be included in opensuse 10.2 kde packages? This bug is decreasing usability of klipper and entire kde (copy - paste). -- kriko Using Opera's revolutionary internet suite: http://www.opera.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] kipi-plugins 0.1.3 from backports
by Sven Burmeister 25 Apr '07

25 Apr '07

Hello! When I try to install kipi-plugins from the backports-repo (10.2) it requires libexiv2 0.12, although the libexiv package in the same repo is 0.14. If one installs libexiv2 0.12 the digikam package from that repo complains. Could it be that kipi-plugins's dependencies should be updated?

by David Miller 25 Apr '07

Is there anyway of disabling the eye on the kickoff menu icon? I've made an alternative icon which is a .png image and renamed it kmenu_basic.mng, but the eye is still displayed :( Any help with this would be appreciated. -- Best Regards, David Miller --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] opensuse-updater KDE bugfixes
by Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett 25 Apr '07

25 Apr '07

Hallo guys. Lots of you reported minor bugs (but a lot of them) against the KDE applet we shipped in 10.2 as the lightweight package manager stack. Thomas Goettlicher has been busy squashing those, and I just uploaded a package to the build service (home:dmacvicar) with those bugfixes in case you are interested in testing them and provide feedback. Please test, specially #231203 - fix should wait for initial update until (K)NetworkManager has established connection (#231203) - fix some translations lost/missing (#229225) - Small string change "Check now..." => "Check Now" - fix missing one German translation (#244583) - fix unfortune default column width (#262332) - fix text cut off (#220870) - fix Software strings / Window names (#221236) - fix warning message on STDOUT (224548) Note we are only fixing minor bugs in this branch, and features wll be in a separate branch.

[opensuse-kde] Strange new Behaviour in K3B
by Robert Smits 25 Apr '07

25 Apr '07

I noticed after a recent K3B update that now, after burning a CD, after the burning was completed, but before K3B did verification, that it ejected the CD, and then complained about not finding the disk. Reinserting the CD would allow it to finish the disk. I'm using K3B 0.12.14 with KDE 3.5.111 Level "a" Suse 10.1 on my laptop. I also tried this out on my desktop at home. There it ejects the CD and then pulls it back in and does the verification, and then ejects it again. The problem with this behaviour is that the laptop has no mechanism to pull the CD back in again - it's strictly a manual operation where you push it closed. So It hangs in the middle of burning unless you babysit it. The second annoyance is that when you push it back in, Suse thinks you've inserted a different CD and pops up a message asking you what you want to do. Anyone got any suggestions? -- Bob Smits Ph 250-245-2553 Fax 250-245-5531 E-mail bob(a)rsmits.ca --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] [KDE 3.5.6] Questions on KDE Autostart and Autologin
by Johannes Kastl 24 Apr '07

24 Apr '07

Hello, I have Autologin enabled on my machine, and I also have several scripts in my .kde/Autostart. Is there a way to tell my machine - not to execute stuff in .kde/Autostart on login, for example by pressing a key (like SHIFT on Windows, IIRC)? - to tell my machine to not login any user, i.e. to disable auto-login for that one boot process, maybe also a Key? Could be that there are easy solutions to these questions, but maybe I just had the wrong search terms... Thanks, OJ -- Die Presse ist immer nur so frei wie ihr Kontostand.

[opensuse-kde] SUSE Linux 9.3 support about to be discontinued
by Stephan Binner 20 Apr '07

20 Apr '07

Hello, SUSE Linux 9.3 will reach its end of life in about a week (see lifetime explanation at http://en.opensuse.org/SUSE_Linux_Lifetime ). When that happens SUSE Linux 9.3 will disappear rather soon from the build service and with it all the KDE 9.3 repositories. If you for some strange reason want to continue using 9.3 then better update/make a copy of them before.

[opensuse-kde] Slow moving windows and slow scrolling with openSUSE 10.2
by Majdi Jaqaman 17 Apr '07

17 Apr '07

Hello, I had suse 9.0 for about 3 years. I bought a new desktop, intel duo core 64-bit, and I installed openSUSE 10.2. The only problem I have is that the windows don't move smoothly when I move them from one spot to another! Also scrolling in firefox is such a pain, it looks like it's flipping pages rather than scrolling! Any ideas? I tried searching around for "slow scrolling" but I can't think of any terms. I don't think it's the hardware since the machine is new! Also I received the box with windows on it, and that problem did not occur, does that mean it's the driver? Any help is appreciated.

[opensuse-kde] Updater applet for Gnome and KDE
by Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett 10 Apr '07

10 Apr '07

The openSUSE updater is a desktop applet which shows the user the available updates (patches). It is very light and simple as the real work is done by the YaST solver. This allows us to provide one applet per desktop, much like you have a a NetworkManager applet per desktop. The KDE applet was born last year as a Google SoC project. Today I imported the opensuseupdater KDE applet sources from berlios to svn.opensuse.org/svn/zypp. The gnome applet was already in the zypp repository. There is a new wiki page for both the KDE and Gnome applet. * http://en.opensuse.org/Updater_Applet The sources for both applets are located here: * http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/zypp/trunk/updater-gnome/ * http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/zypp/branches/SuSE-Linux-10_2-Branch/updater-kd… Also, there is a work branch for the KDE applet where a major refactoring is going on to cleanup legacy code from SoC, use cmake as build system and load the backends as KDE plugins. It will become trunk once it works: http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/zypp/branches/work/updater-kde-refactoring/upda… Just email me for any question! cheers -- Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett Novell :: SUSE R&D, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] a question about how to develop kde4 app on suse 10.2
by Liang Qi 03 Apr '07

03 Apr '07

Hi, all, I used opensuse 10.2 and installed some package from here: http://software.opensuse.org/download/KDE:/KDE4/openSUSE_10.2/ I had installed cmake, libqt4, strigi, kdelibs, kdepimlibs, kdebase and devel packages for them. And I had followed the article to create my first kde4 app, http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Programming_Tutorial_KDE_4/Fi… When build, gcc way is ok now. But cmake way failed(make and makeobj both failed). Could you give me some hints on this topic? Thanks a lot.

[opensuse-kde] Renaming of KDE:Community repositories
by Stephan Binner 01 Apr '07

01 Apr '07

Hello, because of consistency and technical reasons the following distro repositories within the "KDE:Community" openSUSE Build Service project have to be renamed: KDE:/Community/KDE_Qt_SLES_9/ KDE:/Community/KDE_Qt_SLE_10/ KDE:/Community/KDE_Qt_SUSE_Linux_10.0/ KDE:/Community/KDE_Qt_SUSE_Linux_10.1/ They all will lose the "KDE_Qt_" part. Please change your YaST installation sources, the new repositories are already available on the server. The KDE:/Community/KDE_Qt_SUSE_Linux_9.3/ repository will be deleted once SUSE Linux 9.3 security support ends (which will happen during April).
