[opensuse-kde] kontact / kadressbook (kde4): "Select Email Adress"-Dialog?
by Christian Lorch 08 Apr '09

08 Apr '09

Hallo, spätestens seit dem Update auf KDE 4.2.2 kommt im kadressbook beim Anklicken eines Kontaktes der mehrere Mailadressen hat immer zu diesen nervigen Dialogen überschrieben mit "Select Email Adress". Im Dialog kann man die Mailadressen des Dialogs auswählen und bestätigen, der Dialog kommt aber sofort wieder, typischerweise 2x. Sobald dann aber wieder der Kontakt ausgewählt wird kommt der Dialog wieder - er scheint also zumindest nicht irgendwelche Standardmailadressen sicherheitshalber zu setzen. Was der Dialog sonst bewirkt ist mir nicht bekannt. Weiß da jemand näheres bzw. wie man das kadressbook wieder abgewöhnen kann? Danke, Christian -- Christian Lorch :: der nett.Zwerg-Berater

[opensuse-kde] KDE:KDE4:STABLE:Desktop published with many updates
by Will Stephenson 08 Apr '09

08 Apr '09

I'm breaking my own rules again, but I just reenabled publish on KDE:KDE4:STABLE:Desktop after about a 12 hour unpublish to prepare online updates there for kdelibs4 kdepimlibs4 kdebase4 kdebase4-runtime kdebase4-workspace kdepim4 4.1.3 users, this update fixes a lot of bugs - please test, but be aware that Plasma did not see much work in 4.1 branch and our packages already have many backports from trunk, so don't expect the world to change there.

[opensuse-kde] Opening peripheral devices
by Bob S 08 Apr '09

08 Apr '09

Hello SuSE people, In my 11.1 testbed with KDE4.2, I finally am able to open my CD & DVD drives, flash cards, and my USB hard drive. When the little device notifier pops up it correctly identifies the app. However, it only gives the choice of opening with Dolphin. In the case of a CD with music on it, it should offer a music player or with a DVD movie offer a video player which it does not. Am I the only one or do others verify this quirk? If I am the only one, is there a config file someplace for hal? I guess it is. If others have the same problem and there is no work-around I will file a bug.

[opensuse-kde] Status of the KDE4 Unstable repositories
by Raymond Wooninck 07 Apr '09

07 Apr '09

What is the status of the KDE4 Unstable repositories. I can see that the new snapshot has been build successfully, but still it is not published. Also the KDE4:Community repositories connected to the Unstable build are blocked for publishing. My personal experience is that the quality/stability of the KDE4.3 is getting better with each snapshot. With the new snapshot 4.2.69 I noticed that Plasma is crashing if NetworkManager-kde4 is being used. It is crashing on kglobalaccel.

[opensuse-kde] How to invoke NetworkManager-kde4?
by Oddball 06 Apr '09

06 Apr '09

Hi, Knetworkmanager (kde3) is/was still default in kde4.2. But if one knows that somehow wpa settings do not get saved, so one has to configure these everytime one boots, one wants to try another version, like NetworkManager-kde4. Invoking it from the cmd as $, gives the location, and the hint to invoke it as #. Invoking it as root gives nothing. wpa_gui also is bugged as it states you have to use a minimum of eight symbols when you use 8, and will also not save anything... I upgraded to 2.6.29.60 today to find that wifi is onboard again, so i end up with dead end streets again. Is it usefull to file a bug against knetworkmanager, as it is gonna be dropped anyway? I would like to be able to use my wireless without having to config it every startup.. -- Have a nice day ;) Oddball aka M9.

I have been watching and discussing the proposed repository layout for a while. And I believe with the new release schedule for openSUSE the KDE repo should be simple and look something like: KDE:/{Stable,Release,Factory} Where Stable is the current openSUSE version. Where Release (or something that defines a release from KDE) is the latest version from KDE such as 4.2.2 now. Where Factory is the next openSUSE version. Users should have no problem using Release and it switching from 4.2.4 to 4.3.0 as long as it is the latest release from KDE, right? With Release users will never miss a release from KDE (and that's what they want). Let's really try to keep this simple and avoid version number labeled repositories. That really was the original intention of Stable, Factory, and Unstable, wasn't it? Therefore, the spins could just point to Release. This way Release is always the latest from KDE. At times there will be overlapping between the repositories but this is acceptable. On the other hand right now Stable would be openSUSE 11.1 patched packages, Release would be KDE 4.2.2 packages, and Factory would be whatever openSUSE 11.2 will be using. This way openSUSE KDE testing could always be done in Factory and bleeding edge KDE users can always use Release. -- Marc Benstein -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse-kde] Vanilla KDE Packages

But for which KDE versions would this be necessary ? The KDE version in Factory or also for versions lower ? I agree that it would sense to have such a Vanilla repository. But is the current KDE4:Unstable not already a Vanilla KDE ?

[opensuse-kde] Vanilla KDE Packages
by Marc Benstein 03 Apr '09

03 Apr '09

In the previous thread KDE 4.2 stable repo and KDE live CD respin the discussion evolved at one point to a community maintained vanilla version of KDE. By vanilla I mean an unmodified (openSUSE branding could be optional) packages directly from the KDE release? Is there an interest from the community for a vanilla set of KDE packages based on official KDE releases? Who would be willing to maintain such a set of packages? Would our resources be better used to help Factory? Certainly right now it is much better to use the latest from KDE, but will it be in the future? The reason I came to the openSUSE project was because of the heavily modified KDE. If the community is using resources to package and use a vanilla KDE then what makes KDE on openSUSE so special? -- Marc Benstein -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org
