[opensuse-kde] KDE Branding HOWTO
by Will Stephenson 06 Jun '11

06 Jun '11

I've been finishing the branding work for 11.3 this week, and have been documenting how to do it as I go. The first draft is attached. Comments? If I was hit by a bus tomorrow, could you do openSUSE 11.4 branding? (Lubos doesn't need to answer that ;)).

[opensuse-kde] bluedevil and bluetooth in kde 4.6
by Divan Santana 03 Jan '11

03 Jan '11

Hi All, I noticed bluetooth is not working on my laptop once using kde 4.6. I noticed kbluetooth from the kde45 repo is still installed and remember reading about bluedevil. I correctly removed kbluetooth and installed bluedevil from KDE:Factory(11.3) however bluez is not set as a dependency so it obviously wouldn't work. Can the above be corrected, ie bluez added as a dependency for bluedevil? Perhaps also kbluetooth should be removed and bluedevil installed when one swiches from kde45 to kde46? Once I installed bluez is seems to be able to do basic bluetooth scanning via bluedevil-wizard however I haven't yet found a replacement bluetooth icon for the system tray(although I'm still looking). Not sure if there are any other missing dependencies. old ref link for some dependencies: http://www.afiestas.org/bluedevil-the-new-kde-bluetooth-stack-is-here/ -- Divan Santana -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] packaging details for KUP
by Alin Marin Elena 28 Dec '10

28 Dec '10

Dear All, Lately i took the liberty to package some apps in KUP... Yesterday I had the unhappy experience that one of the sr I did to be rejected... I will not enter into the reasons why this particular package was rejected... The situation is that this package had srs accpected by two different reviewers previously. All I did was simple update the source files for it. What I like to be clarified are 1) versioning policy in the .spec file 2) naming of the source files, should they include version number? 3) quantity of comments that should be added in the changelog? I understand that personally we may have strong views on each point... but the community decision should prevail when a package sr is reviewd. regards, Alin -- I force myself to contradict myself in order to avoid conforming to my own taste. -- Marcel Duchamp Without Questions there are no Answers! _____________________________________________________________________ Alin Marin ELENA Advanced Molecular Simulation Research Laboratory School of Physics, University College Dublin ---- Ardionsamblú Móilíneach Saotharlann Taighde Scoil na Fisice, An Coláiste Ollscoile, Baile Átha Cliath ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Address: Room 318, UCD Engineering and Material Science Centre University College Dublin Belfield, Dublin 4, Ireland ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://alin.elenaworld.net alin.elena(a)ucdconnect.ie, alinm.elena(a)gmail.com ______________________________________________________________________ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Sound config problem after upgrading to KDE 4.6 RC1 (4.5.90)
by C 27 Dec '10

27 Dec '10

A minor sound issue popped up after I updated to KDE 4.6 RC1 (4.5.90). I have a soundblaster card and speakers for my main/default sound device, and a Logitech USB wireless headset. My usual configuration is to use the soundbalster as the default device for all system sounds, and the headset only for Skype, Ekiga etc. After updating to KDE 4.6 RC1 and restarting, KDE complained that it had an extra sound device in its config, and wanted to remove it. I initially clicked No, and poked around in the Phonon config to see what was up. It appears that the name that the Soundblaster was known by has changed from a fairly detailed name to simply "default". I tested a bit, and "default" seemed to work OK.. and since I don't care what it's called as long as it works, I set up "default" as the primary device for all sound options in the Phonon setup. This appears to work in most cases. Sound from a video played in a browser is directed to the speakers, sound from multimedia is directed to the speakers.. games.. to the speakers... Skype works in the headset... and so on. So everything seems to be "right" except... for KDE system sounds... the "bink" sounds you get on errors for example. These are only played through the USB headset.... and I cannot figure out why. Any tips, suggestions, ideas here? Something changed in the move from the Beta to RC1 that changed some sound config for KDE somewhere... but.... where to look to fix it is the big question. (I poked the bugs on kde.org, but didn't find anything relevant) C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] no plasma clocks after upgrade to SC:/kdepim46
by phanisvara das 23 Dec '10

23 Dec '10

after switching packages to SC:/kdepim46 all my plasma clocks (fuzzy, digital, analog) stopped working, with the error message: "Could not find requested component: clock". looking at /var/log/zypp/history, i see that only kdepim stuff got updated, plus quite a few perl libraries from OSS, apparently as dependencies of the new kdepim libs. i don't understand why this should affect plasma (widget) clocks, unless those use those perl libraries, too, and are not happy with the new choices. writing to the kde-devel mailing list, i got the following reply: > You're probably missing the libclock for plasma. It's a distro problem, not a > plasma one nor a kontact one. > Please enquire with your distribution, i'm sure this has been caused by switching to the SC:/kdepim46 repo, and that whoever prepared those repos would like to know about that. but i'm puzzled where to report this as a bug: plasma, kontact, or what? -- phani. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] KDEPIM 4.6 packages for KDE:Distro:Factory
by Raymond Wooninck 23 Dec '10

23 Dec '10

Dear List mates, As you have read already, KDE 4.6 will be released without the KDEPIM 4.6 packages. openSUSE already changed the KDEPIM packages in the KDE:Distro:Factory repo to the KDEPIM 4.4.8/4.4.9 packages. However I know that some of you would like to continue with the KDEPIM 4.6 packages. For all of you, we have created the repository: KDE:Unstable:SC:kdepim46. This repository contains the KDEPIM 4.6 packages build against KDE:Distro:Factory. The KDEPIM 4.6 packages consists out of akonadi-runtime, kdepimlibs4, kdepim4 and kdepim4-runtime. On a weekly basis I will update these packages to a newer version from the KDEPIM 4.6 branch. The repo has just been published with the kdepim 4.6 status of Sunday evening. Enjoy!!

[opensuse-kde] google translatoid update + bug
by gumb＠linuxmail.org 22 Dec '10

22 Dec '10

I'm using KDE 4.5.4 from the SC45 repo and the Google Translatoid (from the accompanying Extra repo) stopped working a few weeks back (whilst I was still on 4.5.3). Might be a simple change of URI required or might just be a problem on my machine, but nowt happens when pressing the Translate button. In addition, I've stumbled across what might be a bug, and wonder if anybody else can reproduce it? Having pressed the ineffective Translate button, if I then right-click on the widget and hover the mouse over menu items (in particular the Check Spelling option) the system locks up, with the mouse still moveable but everything else dead, forcing me to shut down the X server and log back in. This is with desktop effects and compositing switched off, with widgets locked. I've tried a few different minor releases of the translatoid as they appear in the repo every week or two, but it's always the same. It was working fine for a long time prior to that. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] K:D:F and HAL
by todd rme 17 Dec '10

17 Dec '10

Currently HAL causes problems for K:D:F. Particularly, the device notifier always displays 2 copies of every device. Might it be a good idea, to prevent confusion amongst users, to make the current version of KDE (either kdelibs or kdebase) obseletes HAL so this doesn't happen? It is not a big deal now since it is mostly early adopters, but will become a problem down the road. -Todd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Error - KIOExec blah is a folder, but a file was expected
by Michael Powell 14 Dec '10

14 Dec '10

Greetings: Navigating to somewhere in the tree of an SMB share and attempting to use the "Tools -> Find File..." is producing this error (by way of example): Error - KIOExec smb://testbed.test.zip/storage/Backups is a folder, but a file was expected. This works as expected on any local file system, but fails on remote smb:/ shares. The failure is the same whether attempted within Dolphin or via Konqueror in file management mode. I've checked out the %u comments from various Googlings, and these all seem to be present in the file associations, such as inode/directory, etc. Don't see anything real obvious in there, although I am not an expert on what I would be looking for either. Just nothing jumps out at me. The other half of the picture is Samba on the remote machine. Nothing has changed there for a very long time. While it is a possibility I have my doubts that the problem originates there. I do not use this all that often but I do know it used to work. Just can't say when it stopped working as I upgrade more often than I use this feature. Current system is openSUSE 11.3 with 2.6.37-rc5-18-desktop kernel from HEAD, latest NVIDIA driver 260.19.21 as installed from the .RUN file downloaded directly from NVIDIA site. KDE is KDE 4.5.4 "Release 9". Prior to the switch of Factory to the KDE 4.6 development cycle I was tracking Factory so the Qt library is 4.7.1. Upon the switch I disabled Factory and dropped back to KR45. This has resulted in a very stable desktop and I hadn't noticed any discrepancies until this problem. I do know it used to work but can't pinpoint exactly when it stopped. Anyone else see this?

[opensuse-kde] Fwd: Dolphin crashes on exit (OpenSuse, Strigi and KDE Factory)
by Peter Linnell 12 Dec '10

12 Dec '10

Hi Folks, I chatted with Dario earlier today and asked him to send me a mail to forward. Sounds like a pretty common crash and I have not yet tested myself, but wanted to get this out there for people to see. Cheers, Peter -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Dolphin crashes on exit (OpenSuse, Strigi and KDE Factory) Date: Sat, 11 Dec 2010 13:34:19 -0300 From: Darío Andrés <andresbajotierra(a)gmail.com> On the KDE Bugtracker we are trying to identify a mass crash happening to OpenSuse users (11.2, 11.3, 11.4) with KDE SC 4.6 betas. The crash report is https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=257944 Summary of the Crash: Dolphin (and other applications) crash on exit if some actions are performed. The crash seems to be related to Strigi (libstreams). It happens when some file info is loaded/shown in Dolphin (using the Information panel, or spawning the Properties dialog of a file; which also contains a metainfo tab). I installed OpenSuse 11.4 (the last milestone available some days ago) on a VM and I could reproduce the crash. I could also reproduce the crash if I invoked "kfile4 --dialog SomeAppLauncher.desktop", waited 5 seconds or more and closed the dialog (Note that "SomeAppLauncher.desktop" could be , for example, any .desktop file on Desktop, like "MozillaFirefox.desktop") On my installed, The KDE Crash Handler didn't appeared at all. The crash information was shown on the terminal (reduced stacktrace and memory map). I couldn't get a valid backtrace while running Dolphin from GDB. However, Valgrind detected the crash and it showed references to libstreams.so (Strigi). I tried to install the debuginfo packages for it but I couldn't get the full information in Valgrind. (I also had some problems while installing the debuginfo packages, may be some package version mismatch). We don't know if this could be caused by Strigi 0.7.3, the KDE packages from Factory or any other factor in OpenSuse. We didn't get any other similar report from another distribution deploying KDE 4.6 beta packages (I don't know if they also deploy strigi 0.7.3) It could be really useful if OpenSuse devs or experienced users could test this on their installations to try to determine the cause, or at least, to try to get a full Valgrind log to fill a Strigi bug. If you need more help or information you can contact me or leave a message in the bug report. Thanks in advance Darío A.

[opensuse-kde] XMMS and KDE
by todd rme 10 Dec '10

10 Dec '10

A lot of KDE 4 programs seem to have optional build dependencies for XMMS, providing a fair amount of support for the program I assume. However, as far as I can tell this dependency is not put in any of the spec file buildrequires. XMMS is available from the default repositories. Is there a particular reason XMMS is not being supported in openSUSE KDE packages? I don't use it myself, but I assume some people might if it was supported. -Todd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] kontact / kmail dosn't work
by "Ulf Bartholomäus" 09 Dec '10

09 Dec '10

At first, please excuse me, that I've not checked the Emails before. But some days, I fight with kmail/kontact. History: I update the openSUSE 11.3 KDE Factory Repository to the KDE 4.6 Beta 1. At the first restart from my desktop, the System converts my Email and some other things. But the conversion crashes. But the Email works some days fine. Only the passwords from my Email accounts (which are stored before in kwallet) must be set new. After a system crash, with a hard reboot, akonadi doesn’t work. At first it crashed with mySQL/InnoDB problems. But this problems are known from the Version before (kadressbok) and after reading from some Akonadi pages and "Googling". I do my normal work, to bring up Akonadi (root on my PC have nobody rights in my Home - so I mount it via NFS from my Server): akonadictl stop qdbus org.kde.NepomukServer /nepomukserver org.kde.NepomukServer.quit rm ${HOME}/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/ib* rm ${HOME}/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/.nfs000* rm ${HOME}/.local/share/akonadi/db_misc/mysql.socket chmod -R a+rw ${HOME}/.local chmod -R a+rw ${HOME}/.config find ${HOME}/.local -type d -exec chmod a+rwx {} \; find ${HOME}/.config -type d -exec chmod a+rwx {} \; su -c 'rcmysql restart' mysql_install_db --datadir=${MyHome}/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/ sleep 15s chmod -R a+rw ${HOME}/.local/share/akonadi/* sleep 15s akonadictl start &> ${HOME}/akonadilog & (akonadiconsole || chmod -R a+rw ${HOME}/.local/share/akonadi/* )& But it doesn’t work now. So I rename the ${HOME}/.local/share/akonadi and restart the System. Know Akonadi works fine, but kmail/kontact crashes with a generally error message (aditional some knotify - crash messages pops on the screen). If I look in the Akonadi Server settings, the entrys from Nepomuk are not available, but in the akonadiconsole, this are present. I removed in the akonadiconsole all entry’s, which are not mandatory needed (only the POP and IMAP mailsetting are not removed). But I can't add the Nepomuk Email search, it's light gray and can't be selected). What's happend? How can I bring back my email directory's to Akonadi (or start a new conversion run, to convert the old Emails from ~/Mail to Akonadi)?

by Raymond Wooninck 09 Dec '10

09 Dec '10

== Old Action Items == * No old Action Items. == Status Report == * wstephenson has preparing 4.6beta2 release and testing/fixing PIM 4.6 * wstephenson also packaged koffice 2.3rc1 with titti's help * wstephenson has also been working on KNM's solid::control refactoring and integrating patches from pardus * tittiatcoke fixed ktorrent to work with the new KDE powermanagement. * javier is working on having an openSUSE KDE Live CD, Iberian edition == Getting rid of http://help.opensuse.org/kde4 == * OpenSUSE guides might be more useful, but are not translated in all languages. The community might be able to help with the translation, but where to store the translations. wstephenson will check with the i18n team what they think. Also it would be good to have a link to the guides from the openSUSE greeter. == Updating kde-apps.org live cd listings == * It has already been reported that the links were broken. A good way has to be found where we either have static links to a download folder or to have static filenames. This has also to be discussed with Beineri, as that he is the owner of the kde-apps.org entry. == Q&A == * wstephenson is quite busy and is worried that he is not doing enough with the team. The team however feels the opposite and is impressed with how much is happening. The only thing noticeable was that the biweekly meetings were sometimes skipped without notice. * wstephenson brings up the item to skim openfate entries. Agreement is that this will be done tomorrow (Friday 10th) with everybody that is available on IRC. wstephenson will coordinate. * wstephenson indicates that he is considering to ship kdepim 4.4 as well as kdepim 4.6. This based on the current status of kdepim 4.6 with regards to migration from kmail1 to kmail2, responsiveness of kmail2 and the issues around virtuoso. == Action Items == * wstephenson to contact i18n team with regards to openSUSE guides * Javier to contact Beineri with regards to the live cd listings on kde-apps. * wstephenson to lead the skimming through the openfate entries. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Current state of IMAP aware desktop search/integration in KDE4
by Hans-Peter Jansen 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

Hi everyone, any pointer anybody to what the current state of affairs is related to IMAP aware indexing/desktop integration? When it comes to so called enterprise features, these things are badly missing: IMAP indexing and desktop integration. Nearly every sane enterprise setup uses IMAP for company mails, but last time I looked, everybody was talking about semantic search capabilities, ignoring the fact, that it's much more important to be able to do a simple search for a certain correspondent or keyword, might it contained an {Libre,Open}Office document or some mail, or even some doc attachment of that mail. Any progress in this area? The next thing, that is missing is being able to drag mails into the filesystem (creating _links_ to the IMAP store), in order to organize certain correspondence in a simple and logic way. Do we really need to copy stuff around, and even be forced to invent some filename, loosing all the context similar to what the unspeakable Outlook does? While all this might be seen purely as commercial usage patterns, this would be useful for many scenarios, when IMAP is part of the game.

[opensuse-kde] Evaluating KDE Features in openFATE
by Andreas Jaeger 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

Hi openSUSE KDE team, As blogged a couple of days ago ( http://news.opensuse.org/2010/11/30/feature-handling-for-opensuse-reworked/ ), we need some people that evaluate features for our distribution. How does your team like to evaluate features? We really like to have you evaluate your features... Btw. from Tom: All features for 11.4 in state 'new' and tag kde: https://features.opensuse.org/query/run?search_string=&tag=kde&search_produ… These should be evaluated by you and set to either rejected, duplicate or marketplace. Marketplace means that this is a sane feature that is up for graps and searching for a developer. There are not many features to be reviewed right now, because the screening (unconfirmed->new, set tags) is not reaaly up to speed yet. So you might also want to check the unconfirmed requests for 11.4: https://features.opensuse.org/query/run?search_string=&tag=&search_products… I also added the tags as hermes parameters, so you can create notifications and feeds from features reaching your state.

[opensuse-kde] plasma-widget-menubar and patched Qt for openSUSE?
by Markus Slopianka 05 Dec '10

Hi there. Could anyone please be so kind to provide "plasma-widget-menubar" and the necessary Qt patches for openSUSE? I tried to install the patched Qt from Kubuntu via 'alien' but that didn't work out. Ideally it would also make it into openSUSE 11.4 but a personal OBS project would be fine, too. (I tried learning OBS myself but still can't understand it.) The Qt patch is small and has already been accepted for Qt 4.8. Aurélien Gâteau maintains the patch also for Qt 4.7. Everything needed is listed here: http://agateau.wordpress.com/2010/07/05/getting-menus-out-of-application-wi… Thanks.

[opensuse-kde] minimum phonon videoplayer woes
by Hans-Peter Jansen 05 Dec '10

05 Dec '10

Hi, I'm trying to get the simplest of all phonon video players going (based on K:D:F), but while it shows the first frame just fine, and even scales it on window resize, there's no progress whatsoever (and just viewing the starting frame tends to get boring pretty quickly ;) ). It might be, that I'm doing something obviously wrong, but I have no idea what that can be.. (Please bear with me, my C/C++ brain is pretty rusty, I usually hack Python/PyQt nowadays). It would be nice, if a few guys could check this out: Put the three files in one folder, and run: qmake && make Locate some *.mp4, *.flv, or any other video format, that is supported, and run ./phonon videofile Does it play the video? To find out, which formats should be supported, check out the "Supported MIME Types" list from the Qt phonon capabilities example. My package versions in use: libqt4-4.7.1-145.1 {,lib}phonon4-4.4.3-52.2 phonon-backend-gstreamer-0_10-4.4.3-57.5 The latter two are from home:frispete:branches:KDE:Distro:Factory, where I try to get the phonon-backend-xine package working for 11.1, in order to be able to use it with the PyQt/phonon bindings. The (Py)Qt musicplayer example operates fine, btw. Pete

[opensuse-kde] KDE factory for 11.1, repo broken?

Hi, one more try. Seems the KDE factory repository for 11.1 (that is http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Distro:/Factory/openSUSE_11.…) is broken for a few days or so. Namely libstrigi-0.7.3-41.3-x86_64 does not provide libstreamanalyzer.so.0()(64bit), which affects dozens of other packages. Seems just to be a matter of the provides-part of the RPM (contains libstreamanalyzer.so.0.7(), but no libstreamanalyzer.so.0() anymore), but i do not want to fiddle about. Another broken thing is phonon-4.4.3-52.1-x86_64: "nothing provides phonon-backend >=4.4.3 needed by phonon-4-4-3-52.1.x86_64". Appropriate backend packages are missing. Did i miss something?
