[opensuse-kde] recording sound
by Anders Johansson 27 Mar '11

27 Mar '11

Hi, For the first time in ages I wanted to record something with a microphone, and I can't find a program for it. What am I missing? i know there used to be krecord, but that seems to only be for kde3. Is there something, and I'm just not seeing it...?

I have tried re-running the following command in order to make any new repositories available for my project: kde-obs-generator --setup-project-unified home:djar:kalarm However, when I run it, it outputs the following error messages: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/osc", line 21, in <module> r = babysitter.run(osccli) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/osc/babysitter.py", line 50, in run return prg.main() File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/osc/cmdln.py", line 309, in main return self.cmd(args) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/osc/cmdln.py", line 332, in cmd retval = self.onecmd(argv) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/osc/cmdln.py", line 448, in onecmd return self._dispatch_cmd(handler, argv) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/osc/cmdln.py", line 1178, in _dispatch_cmd return handler(argv[0], opts, *args) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/osc/commandline.py", line 343, in do_list print '\n'.join(meta_get_project_list(apiurl, opts.deleted)) UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xc4' in position 25990: ordinal not in range(128) ERROR: Cannot reading list of all projects Aborted It doesn't matter which directory I run the command from, the result is always the same. -- David Jarvie.

Hello SuSE people Running 11.4 with Kmail 1.13.6 I have been trying for hours now, to get the Kmail message list to display the \ way I want it, to no avail. The thing keeps showing months and years in double lines with the sender on thesecond line. I just want my plain simple all on one line by subject, sender and date chronologically.

[opensuse-kde] Birthday's calendar in Kmail Calendar Doesn't work
by Arthur Machlas 24 Mar '11

24 Mar '11

Hi, on Opensuse 11.4 when I add birthday information to my contacts in Kontacts via the kmail interface, they don't show up in the calendar, even though it is checked (activated). I suspect it is a bug, but wanted to pose the question here first as that is recommended before filing a bug report. I"ve already posted the question on opensuse forums without response.

[opensuse-kde] Configuring the start order of apps when starting session
by Malte Gell 24 Mar '11

24 Mar '11

Hi there, is it possible with KDE 4.6.0 to set the order of the start of apps when a KDE session starts? I would like to have the Networkmanager to be the first thing that starts to establish a internet connection. Currently the korganizer module starts before Networkmanager. I would like to be Networkmanager first. Regards Malte PS: good old Amiga OS 3 could change the start order virtually 20 years ago ;-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] 11.4 + KDE 4.6.1: Mouse Actions -> Right-Button doesn't work properly
by Pablo Sanchez 23 Mar '11

23 Mar '11

Howdy, If I need to file this bug as an upstream bug, I will. In a VM, I've installed `openSUSE 11.4 + KDE 4.6.1' I first tried customizing my mouse's right-button with the stock `openSUSE 11.4' distribution (I believe KDE 4.4.x). When I couldn't get it to work, I upgraded to `KDE 4.6.1' - I didn't test my findings in KDE 4.4 though. What I noticed with KDE 4.6.1 (I didn't test this scenario with KDE 4.4), is I can only get the `Application Launcher' to work if I assign it to any other mouse action other than `right-button' :) For example, if I do the following: o `Desktop Settings > Mouse Actions > Right-Button' o Select `Application Launcher' when I right-click on my desktop, I only get a single menu item: `Desktop Settings' On the other hand, if I set, say `Middle-Button' to `Application Launcher', I get the list of Kicker applications: o `Desktop Settings > Mouse Actions > Middle-Button' o Select `Application Launcher' The above works. What I'm trying to figure out is whether this is an `openSUSE' issue or an upstream bug. I'm more than happy to re-open KDE bug 163016: [ https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163016 ] Please advise.

[opensuse-kde] Konqueror not seeing flashplayer
by upscope 23 Mar '11

23 Mar '11

When I open Konqueror I get the following message: <code> No plugin found for 'Shockwave Flash file'. Do you want to download one from openSUSE? </code> I have the flash-player installed in both /usr/lib/Browser-Plugins and /usr/lib64/Browser-Plugins. This worked in 11.4 RC1. My 11.4 is a fresh install with latest update. It works in Firefox, and Seamonkey. I have the adobe flashplayer10_2_p3_64bit_linux_111710.tar.gz version installed. (flashplayer.so) in the above two folders. Don't know if this a flasher player problem or version problem. the version of freshplayer is the same one I used on 11.4 RC1 with no problem, installed same way. My permissions are same as other plugins in the folders (755). Appears to be a problem in Konqueror only. Any help or pointer will be appreciated.

[opensuse-kde] Problem with phonon in oS 11.4
by Andreas Mahel 23 Mar '11

23 Mar '11

Hi all, after performing a clean install on a lenovo S10e netbook, I'm experiencing strange behavior of the sound system. Certain parts of the sound system seem to work ok: * sound card configuration in Yast nicely configures the (Intel 82801G) sound card * the pulse audio tools show appropriate devices * playing ogg or mp3 files with kaffeine works * kmix can control volume (for kaffeine output) just nicely On the other hand: * amarok just hangs on startup (hanging withein "initializing phonon") * if in "configure desktop" I select Multimedia -> Phonon, it just stays in "waiting for gui to appear" mode. * starting the phpnpn settings via "kcmshell4 kcm_phonon" displays one error message and then hangs The error message is: (kcmshell4:5837): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_debug_add_log_function: assertion `func != NULL' failed The problem occurs with KDE 4.6.0 as well as 4.6.1 On the same netbook, the oS11.3 installation had been working just fine. On a different laptop, oS 11.4 also just works. The error message mentioned, happens to appear within thw working installation as well, so I would guess this one is not part of the problem. Any clues / tips where I could do further research?

[opensuse-kde] I don't like new kpackagekit update notifier
by johnm_s2 22 Mar '11

22 Mar '11

:) I can't find a way to get the old behavior of only showing security patches and updates. It shows updates from ALL your repos. ? I don't need to download the latest vlc build every morning.. I do want to know about security updates. Also the UI is pretty dead. You can't sort by clicking a column header. And the only available columns are version and arch. It would be nice to at least show a repo column (and to be able to sort by it). Is there a way to fix these things? I suppose it wouldn't be hard to create my own update applet. Check the output of `zypper lp` and put up a tray icon.. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Kmix in KDE 4.6.0 unusable?
by Malte Gell 21 Mar '11

21 Mar '11

Hello, when I try to start kmix in KDE 4.6.0 nothing happens, the CPU is at 100% and kmix does not start. I end it with pkill then. Is this a known bug or is there any workaround?
