Hi all, I am experiencing severe freeze ups when deleting files from Dolphin. The only quick may is to open konsole and use rm -f <filename> Roman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] KDE-4.5.0 has no minimizing to panel features
by Roman Bysh 16 Aug '10

Hi all, I recently updated from 4.4.4 to 4.5.0. However, when minimizing applications, they no longer appear on the panel so that I can maximize. Can I restore this feature or is it lost? Cheers!

I'm having a bit of a hard time understanding your story, can you please try to rephrase it in a somewhat less confusing manner? I.e. what does "trashed KDE" mean, which versions are you *really* running (you can check using zypper, or the about dialog in some apps.) In short: please be specific, that vastly reduced the time we need to help out. > I know I've taken a few being an old fart my self > you need to get a thicker skin We need friendly people, not people with thicker skins.

[opensuse-kde] Re: KDE3: Trying to restore ksysguard
by Hans-Peter Jansen 13 Aug '10

[cc'ed opensuse-kde(a)opensuse.org] Ilya, Will is right: this deserves a public discussion. Let us prefix KDE3 matters with KDE3: in the subject, as done above, thus all those focusing on KDE4 are free to ignore these messages. Okay?

Interesting observation. The question is: Is there any chance to make this work in a non conflicting way with pure KDE3 and mixed KDE3/KDE4 setups? And yes, you're right. KDE3 should not depend in any way on KDE4. Obviously, this is going back to #379351, where Mike Fabian complains about a conflict between kdebase4-workspace-ksysguardd and kdebase3-ksysguardd. Stephan Binner fixed it by dropping kdebase3-ksysguardd, and relying on kdebase4-workspace-ksysguardd, which is incompatible with KDE3 ksysguard now. I see two possible fixes: - reenable kdebase3-ksysguard and relocate it to say /usr/bin/ksysguardd3. - fix the incompatibilities The disability to show a useful process table with Ctrl-Esc in KDE3 is nagging me for quite a while. Personally, I've load of possibilities for this very task, but most of the users I'm responsible for haven't, and more importantly, aren't interested in any alternatives, I can offer...

I think we should have this discussion on the opensuse-kde(a)opensuse.org list :). Alexander Naumov did some work with KDE 3 knetworkmanager, perhaps he wants to maintain it going forward in KDE:KDE3 with you. Backporting old NM would break very quickly due to newer kernel versions and the removal of HAL in newer distros. It would be better to fix NetworkManager-kde (or even use the KDE 4 version).
