[opensuse-kde] Borked KDE 4.3 beta environment
by Chris Gow 24 Jun '09

24 Jun '09

Hi: I've somehow managed to completely borked my KDE environment this past few weeks. I've been running with the KDE factory repository and ever since it switched to the 4.3 beta, I've had a really busted environment: * No desktop (just the checkered background) * No systray apps * program menu displays in various places I haven't been overly concerned with the above although it kind of limits any sort of beta testing. However, I'm not sure what happened to cause this issue, and although I've made attempts to fix it, I have had no luck. I believe I originally manually added the various factory repos, so that is most likely the root of my problem, but when I've tried using the various OneClick installers available on opensuse, it looks like they crash: yast gets to about 50% and immediately exits. Any ideas on what the problem is and how I would go around fixing it? thanks -- chris -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] KDE:/KDE4:/Factory: and YaST wants to delete some stuff
by Malte Gell 24 Jun '09

24 Jun '09

Hello, I use http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Factory:/Desktop/openS… and as usual I started YaST and selected update all packages. What makes me wonder is, that YasT suggests to delete these packages and to downgrade them to old 4.1.3 version... For example: kde4-kdm installed 4.2.90-273.1 available 4.1.3-10.3.7 But, I do not want to downgrade kde4-kdm to 4.1.3, actually I have disabled the KDE:stable repo in YaST, I just want to use KDE 4.3 beta from Factory... YaST also wants to downgrade kde4-konqueror: kde4-konqueror installed: 4.2.90-91.1 available: 4.1.3-3.8.9 kdebase4 instead gets updated: installed: 4.2.90-91.1 available 4.2.90-92.3 Thanx for any hints.

[opensuse-kde] KDE:/KDE4:/Community ?
by Malte Gell 23 Jun '09

23 Jun '09

Hello, what is the goal of KDE:/KDE4:/Community and how does it differ from KDE:/KDE4:/Factory ? I see, below KDE:/KDE4:/Community is its own Factory tree? I am just a bit confused...

by Marc Benstein 22 Jun '09

22 Jun '09

Lately in Factory I have been having problems with CDs, DVDs, not showing up in the device notifier. KDE3 K3B had no problem getting notification of the recently inserted DVD. Anyone else having this problem? -- Marc Benstein -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org
