[opensuse-kde] KDE4.6.2 (on 11.4) Kmenu names not showing
by C 17 Mar '12

17 Mar '12

I've been poking at this one for a little while now without much success. Using openSUSE 11.4 and KDE 4.6.2. I've got a few applications - the games from HumbleBundle 2 - that have been added to the KMenu by their installers. When I navigate to the applications in the KMenu, the icons are showing, but there is no text next to the icons (Application name field is empty). A mouse hover shows the app names in grey text in the Description field. If I go to the KMenu editor and check the entries, they are filled in correctly - there is a name in the Name field, and the Description fields are all blank. If I add text to the Description field, save and exit the editor, the new Descriptions I've added are not shown on mouse hover, and the Application name is still not showing. Has anyone else seen this? C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[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] Strange KDE 4.6.2 and 11.4 Upgrade Experience
by Anshul Jain 22 May '11

22 May '11

Hi all, I recently upgraded my 11.4 install to 4.6.2 from the default 4.6.0 (?) version using the KDE:Release:46 repos, in addition to performing a "zypper dup" to upgrade my entire system. After the upgrade, kdm wouldn't let me log in. If I try to enter the password of the username created during the first install...it kicks me back to kdm. I had to drop down to the shell and create a new username through YaST. The new username and password now works properly. Why could this be happening? Any ideas?

[opensuse-kde] Changing the volume with kmix and qdbus
by Malte Gell 12 May '11

12 May '11

Hi there, I want to access kmix with qdbus from the command line, but I have not much clue about D-Bus so I wonder about the right syntax. I see I have the kmix D-Bus running: qdbus org.kde.kmix /kmix/KMixWindow/actions/increase_volume /kmix/KMixWindow/actions/decrease_volume What is now the correct qdbus command to change volume?

[opensuse-kde] kmix and multimedia files: cpu to 100%
by Andrea Turrini 28 Apr '11

28 Apr '11

Hi all, yesterday I updated my KDE 4.6.2 using the K:R:46 repository. kmix was not involved in the update. However, now I have the following problem: amarok and kmix are launched at login and if I play a mp3 file, kmix goes to 100% of a cpu until I kill it, even if I close amarok. The same problem occurs using smplayer or vlc to play the same file. Please note that I had no problems before yesterday playing the same file (or completely different one, like a flv file) using amarok, smplayer or vlc. Do you have some idea on how to track/solve this problem?

[opensuse-kde] mount/unmount luks partition
by Giacomo Comes 27 Apr '11

27 Apr '11

Hi, what is the status of mounting/umounting an external hard disk with encrypted partition? In 11.3, after plugging the hard disk, an icon for an encrypted container with an open padlock will apper in the device notifier applet. Clicking on such icon will prompt for a password After providing the correct password, the encrypted container will show a closed padlock and a new icon of a removable media will appear. Clicking on such icon will finally mount the encripted partition. To remove, the reverse sequence is necessary: first click on the removable media icon to dismount it, then click on the encrypted container icon: the removable media icon will disappear and an open padlock image will show that the content of the encrypted container is not accessible anymore. with halmount the command sequence will be: halmount /dev/sdb1 (prompt for a password) halmount /dev/dm-0 (mount the partition) and to dismount: halmount -u /dev/dm-0 halmount -u /dev/sdb1 Now on 11.4: I plug the hard disk, the encrypted container icon with an open padlock appears in device notifier applet. Clicking on such icon will prompt for a password. After providing the correct password, the content of the encrypted container is accessible AND the encripted partition is mounted. But in the device notifier applet the encrypted container icon will still show an open padlock and no icon for the newly avalable removable media appears. After that it's not possible to remove the mounted encrypted partition with the device notifier applet. I'm also failing to access the encrypted partition using udisks. The command: udisks --mount /dev/sdb1 fails with the error message: Mount failed: Not a mountable file system I know that udisks is aware of luks encrypted partitions: /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.udisks.policy contains an action like: action id="org.freedesktop.udisks.luks-unlock" to unlock an encrypted device. The udisks man page does not have any mention about how to unlock an encrypted device so I assume that using the --mount option will do it, but that's not the case. Anyone know how to use udisks to mount an encrypted device? Of course I can use cryptsetup and mount/unmount, but I would like to do it as a normal user, as I was able in 11.3. Thanks.
