[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

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?

[opensuse-kde] Kraft to KDE:Extra
by Klaas Freitag 31 May '11

31 May '11

Hi, I'd like to ask for your permission to move my package Kraft [1] to the KDE:Extra repository. Kraft is an KDE app that depends basically on KDE libs and pimlibs from the KDE side, and a few other packages: python-reportlab python-pypdf libctemplate0 libqt4-sql-sqlite sqlite3 All of these are now in openSUSE:Factory. Currently Kraft builds in home:kfreitag:Kraft. If you do not object I will do an submit request to KDE:Extra.

The issue with dark themes is not the color schemes, but the inability of Oxygen to handle them correctly. QtCurve handles them gracefully. Besides, QtCurve can afford a lot of eye candy that other themes can't. I think we should have some good eye candy for the newbies to Linux and openSUSE. I remember being a newbie, and the eye candy makes you want to keep looking. Its the bait to snag users with. I have already begun working on a flashy but elegant and usable QtCurve theme with a nice useful color scheme of green accents. Quite frankly, I think there should be some effort to adapt QtCurve into a proper theming engine as it is nearly standalone in its features. That is not something to take up at this time I think. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Replace Oxygen theme with QTCurve
by Roger Luedecke 27 May '11

27 May '11

I have found that QTCurve is vastly more impressive. Theming with QtCurve produces a much much more integrated feel between KDE and GTK apps. The extreme degree of versatility in configuration makes it a virtual theme creator. I have also found, that it seems to handle dark themes (ie. Wonton Soup or Obsidian) much more gracefully, actually allowing one to have a functional experience with dark themes. As many of you know, this has been a strong criticism of aesthetics in KDE. Example of Oxygen shortcoming in GTK arena is clear for anyone that uses firefox, as it does not maintain the background gradient, whereas QtCurve does. In future distributions I think we should include and set as default QtCurve. The beauty and integration is sure to wow those new to KDE and openSUSE. "You only have once to make a good first impression." Possibly the Agua2 theme with a gentle green color scheme. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

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?

Definitely a bug in amarok, you should take this to the kde list. I'm sending a cc there.

[opensuse-kde] X does not start in RL 5, but with startx
by Werner Flamme 18 May '11

18 May '11

Hi everyone, another strange thing happened to me last thursday. In the morning, my pc started with runlevel 5, I logged in and worked. When I finished work, I logged out, and then wanted shut down the pc from the greeter screen as usual. But there was no greeter screen that afternoon, just the command line. From then on, kdm does not start in runlevel 5. Strange enough, I can login as root, issue the "init 3" command, login as user, and do the "startx". X (7.6 from the distro, openSUSE 11.4) and KDE (4.6.3 from KDE:Release:46) start fine. After I read "switching to runlevel 5" at boot time, the screen goes black, a little later the nvidia logo appears, the mouse cursor (with the "background activity" symbol), and then I'm thrown back to the text screen. There are no errors in /var/log/Xorg.0.log. The last lines read ---snip--- [ 53.345] (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "ImExPS/2 Logitech Explorer Mouse" (type: MOUSE) [ 53.345] (**) ImExPS/2 Logitech Explorer Mouse: (accel) keeping acceleration scheme 1 [ 53.345] (**) ImExPS/2 Logitech Explorer Mouse: (accel) acceleration profile 0 [ 53.345] (**) ImExPS/2 Logitech Explorer Mouse: (accel) acceleration factor: 2.000 [ 53.345] (**) ImExPS/2 Logitech Explorer Mouse: (accel) acceleration threshold: 4 [ 53.345] (II) ImExPS/2 Logitech Explorer Mouse: initialized for relative axes.

There are no "(EE)" entries in the log, except for the standard "(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown." line. Plus Thunderbird's Enigmail AddOn does not work because it can't load the necessary agent. Neither TB nor Enigmail have been installed on thursday. The kde4-kgreeter-plugins rpm was installed on May 9, so it is not the culprit ;-) But what may be responsible?

[opensuse-kde] Updated NetworkManager plasmoid for 11.4
by Martin Schlander 16 May '11

16 May '11

This is just a short heads up to inform anyone here still using official 11.4 KDE packages, that an updated NetworkManager plasmoid is now available in the KDE:UpdatedApps repository. Which should solve quite a lot of issues. Add the repository, if you don't already have it: zypper addrepo -f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/UpdatedApps/openSUSE_11.4/ kua Upgrade the packages: zypper in 'plasmoid-networkmanagement>=0.9.1git20110503' 'NetworkManager-kde4- libs>=0.9.1git20110503' You will be asked to allow vendor change for some packages. And you might be asked to remove NetworkManager-kde4. Allow both. Note: This will not solve issues with NetworkManager 0.9. This is for people using the NetworkManager 0.8.2 backend which comes with 11.4. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] problems with my "Personal Settings(Configure Desktop)"
by C. Brouerius van Nidek 14 May '11

14 May '11

Since some days I have run into problems with my personal settings. Information changed in the "Personal Settings(Configure Desktop)" are not saved properly and after a reboot inputs are close to defaults. Running Personal settings gives me a full screen with Opacity 50% without border. If I use Alt + F3 I can change opacity to 100% but as soon as I start using the personal setting opacity returns to 50%. I tried to get the border back but the button for this does not produce anything. I want to renew these settings. A renewal of desktop settings is nowhere offered. Which file should I delete and would a new running of this program automatically renew all settings? -- Linux User 183145 using LXDE and KDE on a Pentium IV , powered by openSUSE 11.3 (i586) Kernel: 2.6.39-rc6-21-desktop LXDE WM & KDE Development Platform: 4.6.3 (4.6.3) 17:38pm up 0:09, 3 users, load average: 1.54, 2.55, 1.81 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Tags don't move together with files
by Richard 13 May '11

13 May '11

Hi, I encountered the following situation; I tagged a whole bunch of photos in gwenview, which works nicely. However the photos are located at a temporarely location, so they had to be moved. Moving the files is very easy of course, but when moving the files (via the command line, using 'mv') the tags did not move together with the files. As such I moved the files back to their original position and now the tags are shown again. As Dolphin is also capable to show the tags, I tried to copy the files with Dolphin, which again worked nicely of course, but still the tags did not move. Is it possible to move (nepomuk tagged) files, one way or the other, and have the tags move together with the files? -- Richard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] can't rename my desktops
by Werner Flamme 13 May '11

13 May '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone, first please excuse me if I use the wrong names for some items, I'm using the germanized version of KDE and maybe there are other names for the objects than those I use. To my problem: I chose to have the names of the four virtual desktops shown on the desktop switcher. Therefore, I named them "Shell", "Mail", "Web", and "Others", respectively. During this session, they showed up and everything was fine. But after logging out and in again, the standard names ware back. Since it is not "DeskX" like in English, but "Arbeitsfläche X" in German, the desktop switcher takes a lot of space in the bar :-(. I renamed again, logged out, logged in, again the defaults. Bad. So I used Strg-Alt-F3, logged in via console, edited the [Desktops] section of ~/.kde4/share/config/kwinrc. The text was there, fine. I logged out, switched back to the KDE greeter and logged in there. And - "Arbeitsfläche X". I looked at the just edited file, and the entries I made via console were empty again. I'm using KDE 4.6.3 from the KDE:Release:46 repos. Anyone else with this problem? Or - even better :-) - does anyone know a workaround? Deleting the cache is something I already did...

[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] akonadi startup
by Giacomo Comes 12 May '11

12 May '11

Hi, does anybody know how to disable akonadi in 11.4? I know, I know, it is necessary in order to run: KAddressBook, Kalarm, Kmail, Knotes, Korganizer, etc. but there are cases were I really don't need it: like on some old laptop or system were I know I'm not going to run kmail/kaddress etc. On such systems there are several disadvantages in having akonadi started: 1) at each login at least 10 unuseful processes (mysqld between them) must be started increasing the time to login (3/4 seconds) 2) also such processes are staying around until logout 3) there are 140MiB of wasted disk space in each user's HOME for the mysql database which contains NO data. So far I was able to address only point 2) by creating a script in ~/.kde4/Autostart which runs: sleep 8 akonadictl stop But I really would like to have the possibility to not start at all akonadi. How can I do it? Giacomo -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Upcoming paternity leave
by Will Stephenson 11 May '11

Hey all My daughter's first birthday is coming up and it's time for me to take my turn at raising her, by taking paternity leave from work (yay for the German system!). This means: July, August: full time daddy September onwards: part time daddy As supporting KDE on openSUSE is very important to us, we're going to get someone to cover for me. But I'm giving the opensuse-kde team advance warning so that we can get our things, such as 12.1 features, planned before I go on leave so that the disruption is kept to a minimum.
