[opensuse-kde] KMyMoney kmm_kbanking plugin
by Jan Ritzerfeld 08 Dec '09

08 Dec '09

Hello! In KDE:Backports and openSUSE:Factory, there is the (almost) latest version of KMyMoney available but there is no kmm_kbanking plugin. Is there a specific reason for this like license issues? BTW, there seems to be a OBS project providing the plugin: home:NicoK:banking Gruß Jan -- To love is to be vulnerable. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] 11.2 is branched, KDE Repository Content Changes
by Stephan Binner 31 Oct '09

31 Oct '09

Hello, remaining openSUSE 11.2 development until release is now branched from Factory [1], the next Factory repo build which will be synced out will already contain post openSUSE 11.2 changes in some packages (like the phonon splitting) - RC2 will appear only in http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.2/repo/... The KDE:KDE4:* repository layout should reflect the new state also, hence - I copied current openSUSE:11.2 state to KDE:KDE4:STABLE:Desktop project - after successful build and enabled publication in the next days it will contain KDE 4.3.1 packages (including fixes being tested for official online update) for the next eight months until openSUSE 11.3 release. - Hacks/links for hosting newer application sources in KDE:43 project will be reverted. They will be pushed to KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop and Factory now. - KDE 4.3.2 (or with 4.3.3 release) will be merged into the KKFD packages, KDE:43 will be, if kept, only consist of links to KKFD first. With some to be defined KDE 4.4 development release KKFD will start to contain it so switch to either STABLE:Desktop or KDE:43 before if you want to stay safe. - KDE:KDE4:UNSTABLE:Desktop (requires now KDE:Qt46) is always unsafe. <g> - Btw KDE:42 is not built anymore for some days now and will with the on it depending repos of Playground/Community disappear also in near future. Is something missing/wrong/unclear? :-) Bye, Steve [1] http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-packaging/2009-10/msg00069.html -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] KDE_42 Repositories Discontinued?
by Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. 28 Oct '09

28 Oct '09

Was there an announcement on this list that the KDE_42 repositories would be going away? I just noticed they were gone. I normally follow this list closely, but I must have missed it if there was an announcement. I wasn't planning to move to KDE 4.3 until I upgraded this system to oS 11.2. That was going to be either in the week before the official release or in the week after. Unless these repositories are coming back, I guess I'll be moving up my timeline. Are the KDE 4.2 repositories gone for good, or are they just temporarily disappeared? -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss(a)iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/

Hello Mates, i've created an new Package from Skrooge. But i need an external Tester. And it would be great if anyone can test the following: ----------------------------------------------- Repo: KDE:KDE4:Community ----------------------------------------------- 1.) If you select skrooge have you an automatic Selection for the skrooge-lib and skrooge-lang Subpackage? 2.) Start skrooge 3.) After skrooge launch, can you see the Component Chooser on the left Side?

[opensuse-kde] Firefox KDE integration demo/article - volunteer?
by Lubos Lunak 23 Oct '09

23 Oct '09

Hello, as milestone8 now ships the Firefox KDE integration (http://en.opensuse.org/KDE/FirefoxIntegration) and for many KDE users this could be considered quite big good news, I think it would be nice to redo the demonstration video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pyp5bX_NV6k) on milestone8 and write an article for news.opensuse.org/dot.kde.org . Would a volunteer be interested in doing this? Completely no technical skills required (besides basics like being able to record the desktop and running milestone8 at least in virtualbox), so this would fit nicely for whoever is "no programmer/packager" be would like to contribute anyway. -- Lubos Lunak KDE developer -------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s.r.o. e-mail: l.lunak(a)suse.cz , l.lunak(a)kde.org Lihovarska 1060/12 tel: +420 284 084 672 190 00 Prague 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Wiki pages about 11.2 (AIs from meeting)

Hello, as mentioned during the last IRC meeting: - At http://en.opensuse.org/KDE3 there is a Wiki page about the status of KDE in openSUSE. Please check (+fix,whatever). We can then simply use only the link to this page whenever somebody complains about KDE3 again instead of having Yet Another Flame War(TM). - At http://en.opensuse.org/KDE/ReleaseNotes11.2 there is what I wrote for the 11.2 release notes. Again, please check, improve, etc. , I'm submitting them tomorrow. - Finally, I wrote about KDE4.3.2+openSUSE 11.2 at http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/4083 . It's not anything official, just my blog, but pasting the link can probably save some typing too. -- Lubos Lunak KDE developer -------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s.r.o. e-mail: l.lunak(a)suse.cz , l.lunak(a)kde.org Lihovarska 1060/12 tel: +420 284 084 672 190 00 Prague 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] 11.2 RC1 kio_sysinfo
by Dwight Paige 20 Oct '09

20 Oct '09

Hello all, I've never posted to this list before. I am not as knowledgeable as many of you. Don't hesitate to correct me or ask for additional info or testing. Not as knowledgeable does not mean "can't learn" or "can't help". So I hope this is of some use. In fresh install of 11.2 x86_64 RC2. sysinfo worked at first. Upon adding KDE43 repo and updating via dup to 4.3.2 sysinfo was giving the 'unexpected program termination' error. So I had a brain *&%# and looked in yast2 and decided to downgrade: kio_sysinfo 11.2-29.1 -> 11.2-28.1 and sysinfo works again. There are others experiencing this as well: http://forums.opensuse.org/pre-release-beta/423463-opensuse-rc1-konqueror-s… Thanks, Dwight Paige P.S.

[opensuse-kde] Re-made of wiki pages : http://en.opensuse.org/KDE/Repositories
by Bruno Friedmann 19 Oct '09

19 Oct '09

(tigerfoot speaking) As discussed on IRC Meetings, I would try to re-organize the wiki pages http://en.opensuse.org/KDE/Repositories and perharps all one-click install found here http://en.opensuse.org/KDE/KDE4#Installation Objectives : Try to give a clear & simple (as much as possible) way to explain noobs how to install / get / maintain their kde desktop up to date with a clear identification about the status of kde and for which version of openSUSE. Most of the informations present should be valid for the 11.2 release, making the process to adjust this wiki page at time for translators. (Most other language are out of date) Findings : Even if I'm a kde enjoy's man, and works from years now with the differents repositories, I should recognize, it's not so easy to understand, or to explain to a noobs ( in repo tree structure and wiki page ) where thing are, and how/what a user have to activate to get the "best/fresh" kde for it's openSUSE. Why ? We face 2 problems with the frequent jump from stable to special extra-ordinary repos ( think about 42, and 43 now ) due to the phase of stabilization (and for 11.1 to the fact of SLES/D using 4.1.x ). Changes vision : 1) 42 repo Start with something quiet easy : did we keep the 4.2 on the wiki page ? I would drop them as it's has been declared deprecated or unmaintained, (see meetings notes) Until the repo will be deleted from obs & mirror, people using it doesn't see a difference. If they come to the wiki page, they will see there an new version and will adapt their yast repo, no ? 2) 43 repo A transitional repo with no Backport or Community package available for +- 25 days ( 11.2 release ) and after what would it become ? (Not really clear in my mind) 3) STABLE actually KDE 4.1.3 Stable If I understand clearly ( perharps it's just because I've not the tree of the mirror with what is a symlink on ). would become 4.3.1 just after the release of 11.2 Could we already change this ? Same remarks as for 42 package ( until the underlaying directories repos are not change people won't be bother ) But after 11.2 people working on a 11.1 + kde/stable would see a kde upgrade to 4.3.1 (right ?) 4) KDE 3.5.10 Put this one on the bottom of the page even after the Qt section. 5) Micro-Changes or No-Changes : 5a KDE-Backport : add a 11.2 link and remove 10.3 Perharps someone could find a more clear phrase (or add a clear exemple when & why to use these repos) in place of "You do not need to update your KDE as well, but you can do so, because KDE is forward compatible" and the french version :-) 5b Factory : add a comment on what version it would contain after 11.2 5c Trunk - no changes 5d : All removes of 10.3 links. 6) About the one-click install and auto-suggestion on yast community-repo (last one is the most used by noobs, and users who don't knows how to go to the wiki page) As someone check on rc1 which repositories are proposed to users in yast ?

[opensuse-kde] amarok on 11.2rc1
by CP Hennessy 18 Oct '09

18 Oct '09

Hi, I've just updated to 11.2 rc1 and everything went very well except for 2 things : - amarok does not play my mp3; and - when I added the KDE 4.3 repository to yast and gave it a priority of 96 the 4.3.2 updates were not found using "Package" -> "All packages" -> "Update if newer version available" It's not clear if the amarok problem is due to some update missing because of the yast2 issue, but what I see is that when the play button is pressed amarok tries to play the first song, then goes to the second, third etc. I do not see any error (or information) messages to tell me what the problem is. When I try to configure the sound system, I can play the test music for the pulseaudio. I was using KDE 4.3.2 on 11.1 and it worked perfectly. This is all 64bit. Any ideas on how to solve this or how I can debug it ?

[opensuse-kde] opensuse introduced konsole bug?
by Jason Newton 12 Oct '09

12 Oct '09

Factory/Kde Factory, x86_64. Seems that clicking on a konsole widget in a konsole window will cause it to scroll all the way to the bottom where the cursor is at, but only after the window was unfocused. Oddly, doesn't happen when giving focus to the konsole application through window border/menu bar/active tab - just the console widget itself. Was chatting with the upstream folks in #kde and seems that this is an opensuse introduced bug. Reproducible on 3 separately configured oS boxen with 2 different owners.

[opensuse-kde] KDE4-Unstable build with Qt4.6
by Raymond Wooninck 10 Oct '09

10 Oct '09

For those who are using the packages from the KDE:KDE4:UNSTABLE:Desktop (This contains the weekly snapshots of the KDE trunk (future KDE4 4.4 release)), I would like to indicate that given the fact that today KDE trunk starts to depend on Qt4.6, we have been working to get Qt4.6 ready and also to have KDE4:Unstable build with Qt 4.6. The 4.3.71 snapshot has been built successfully with Qt4.6 for openSUSE_Factory and therefore it would be required to add the KDE:Qt46 repo to your list of repositories (zypper/YaST). Unfortunately not all repo's have finished building yet (due to a very busy OBS). Both repositories will be updated on a weekly basis. But be aware these are svn snapshots and might not work and comes without guarantee :-) See also the following post: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/blog/77 Regards Raymond -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] KOffice 2.1 Beta 3 for openSUSE 11.1?
by AndiSugandi™ 09 Oct '09

09 Oct '09

Hi openSUSE Lovers. I'm going to test KOffice 2.1 Beta 3[0] on my openSUSE 11.1 machine, but this morning (Bandung, Indonesia) the package is not available yet on KDE:KDE4:Playground as i used it form installing the previous version (Beta 2). I really appreciate if it will there on this week, because i understand (of course) people are too busy to build it as preparing openSUSE 11.2 takes many resources, right? :) Thanks in advance.

[opensuse-kde] home:saigkill KDE >= 4.2 (skrooge)
by Sascha 'saigkill' Manns 08 Oct '09

08 Oct '09

Hello Mates, ATM i'm trying to build skrooge 5.x.x. This version uses KDE Libraries from >= 4.2. So i've tried to link kdelibs4 from openSUSE:Factory to my $HOME Repo. But this not works for 11.1 just for Factory. The Errormessage from 11.1 is a LOT of Files, who are unpackaged. But it runs for Factory, so i think that the files are working. Has anyone an idea, how to fix this? -- Sincerely yours Sascha Manns openSUSE Member openSUSE Ambassador openSUSE Marketing Team openSUSE Build Service Web: http://saschamanns.gulli.to Blog: http://saigkill.wordpress.com ClaimID: http://claimid.com/saigkill -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] did you know that kde factory != 4.3.2 ?
by phanisvara das 08 Oct '09

08 Oct '09

perhaps everybody else here is better informed than i am; in that case excuse me for wasting your time please. until a couple hours ago i was under the impression that kde "factory" would contain the recent 4.3.2 release. i was surprised to learn that's not the case. factory is still 4.3.1, while the 4.3.2 release for the various oS versions is located here: <http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/43/> just in case somebody else suffers from the same illusion or lack of knowledge that i did... -- phani. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

Hi all. I´m just want to remind that we shouldn´t forget to update introducion to KDE4 from KDE greeter [1]. Link content [2] is outdated for 11.2, where is "openSUSE 11.1 uses KDE 4.1 as its KDE desktop" For 11.2 it should be updated.

[opensuse-kde] I'm looking for some multimedia apps
by jfweber＠gilweber.com 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

And I'm hoping one or more of you lovely people can point me in a right direction. I need a simple video editing app... mainly to scrub bits of mom & dad making goofy faces at the kids to get them to act up when the "red light is on". I can't find one.. and the one I had that worked seems to have been up or downgraded and no longer wants to do anything but play the video. It will need to "play" windows files as well. ( legacy stuff. I was finally beginning to see where the pile was getting ever so slightly smaller. ) avi mainly, but I don't really know. Cinelarra is just too much program for such a minor tweak. ;) ( My pet peeve happened again this week. I'm shopping for a new computer to mainly do this video stuff.. to get it off my desk. before the cameras wont work and I can't even get the stuff to play. At least if I can get ti to a dvd that should hold the things I can't manage for perhaps another decade. :/ I have 27 applications on my multimedia menu, the main one that says "Media Editing" none of them will do that little thing where it just removes the stuff at the start, and sometimes the end.. "scrubbing" we used to call it.. Any suggestions will be welcome. Also, are we going to have to use KDE4 when Suse 11.2 (, 3?) is released? I still don't see most of the programs I use... and on one or two occasions , an online update has removed a working 3.5+ program and replaced it w/ a non working KDE4 version. Also, where do I go to put in my vote for programs to be updated &/or upgraded? I do appreciate the work you folks do. It's just it probably doesn't seem so when I'm whining because I can't get my work done.. So do consider yourselves thanked properly. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Poor state and update of kio_sysinfo
by Rafał Miłecki 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

Hi, I described this situation on opensuse-packaging but have been suggested to post it here. I've installed openSUSE 11.2 M4 and M6 and I'm frightened about status of kio_sysinfo. For me and all my friends this was the main tool for managing disks. For mounting CD/pendrive, opening and removing. Nice, friendly, almost perfect. People I explained how to use Linux got used to this tool. Now, in openSUSE 11.2, this kio_sysinfo is completely unusable. It can not mount, can not open many media disks and it can not unmount! It's just useless for almost anything disks related: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=533851 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=502027 I've started fixing kio_sysinfo with nice effects visible already, just need one more day or two to implement event-refreshing. I really would like to see kio_sysinfo updated before releasing openSUSE 11.2. I'm afraid I can not call this serious bug fix, but still I believe it's really big and important feature missing. Can you somehow allow kio_update in stage of milestone 7 already achieved? I know it's little late but couldn't fix that earlier (vacations). My last patches introduce a lot of fixes and features: 1) Opening any mounted device (#533851) 2) Mounting devices 3) Unmounting (and ejecting) devices 4) Fixed displaying of bars of over 99% filled devices 5) Introduced some UI changes to make everything more readable 6) Disabled battery information on machines without battery I didn't add any new strings so translation is not any problem. -- Rafa -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] KDE localization and integration (feedback)
by Javier Llorente 03 Oct '09

03 Oct '09

Hello listmates, I am running openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 8 and I just wanted to share some of the issues I have encountered regarding KDE localization and integration in general. Some of them may be KDE specific and not openSUSE's. If you install openSUSE 11.2 M8 in a language other English, two folders for Documents are created; in the case of Spanish, Documents and Documentos. I guess this applies to other languages. OpenOffice.org's "open" and "save as" dialogs are in English, even if you installed openSUSE in other language. Firefox's "open" and "save as" are localized. Whenever you plug in/insert a pendrive/DVD and click on it to mount it, the option selected by default is "download photos with digiKam" even if the media does not have any pictures. The entries "download photos with digiKam" and "open with file manager" are not localized. Maybe we could have another entry for playing music or movies as well. Greetings, Javier

[opensuse-kde] Repositories 43 / wiki page (post meeting)
by Bruno Friedmann 02 Oct '09

02 Oct '09

I've just done the add for 43 in http://en.opensuse.org/KDE/Repositories I've prepared the links for Community & playground but leave them as comment. Actually not repo exists. I've added a mention about the 4.2 as unmaintained. If somebody can re-read them ... Another point : I would propose to (perharps just after the 11.2 release) change the page Making most important "normal user" repositories on top of the page. ( and make old like 3.5x a bit lower ), For 42, I think it would be great (if no volunteers to maintain) to just leave a note about how to get the 43.
