[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] Easy image mounting?
by Roger Luedecke 09 Nov '11

09 Nov '11

One thing that was nice in OS X was the ease of mounting an image as a virtual disk. I rarely had use for this however until I got a netbook, which has no optical drive. Now when I have hoped to install certain games (running on WINE) this is unnecessarilly complicated, if not impossible due to the lack of optical drive and the lack of an easy mounting option. Can we be sure to add an easy way to mount disk images? Maybe just right click>mount image in Dolphin? I don't imagine it should be very hard to implement, and would be very useful... especially as more users are turning to netbooks and similar devices.

[opensuse-kde] Re: Problems with KDE 4.7 after ordinal update
by David 06 Oct '11

06 Oct '11

Well, the first thing you should try is the old trick: restarting :-) If it still does not work: - Try upgrading again (and restarting afterwards). - Do you remember having done anything wrong? (for example, for conflicting files: removing a file or breaking a dependence?).

[opensuse-kde] Important notice for KDE:Unstable:Playground packagers
by Christophe Giboudeaux 04 Oct '11

04 Oct '11

Hi, Over the last months / years, some packages have been abandoned in KDE:Unstable:Playground. The direct consequence is that repositories take longer to get published. During the last 6 months, I've taken over the maintenance of around 60 packages in this repositories but there are some I simply don't want or cannot maintain. As a consequence, the repository will be cleared soon if no action is taken for the following packages. I have isolated 4 categories : - Obsolete svn/git snapshots or versions - Dead projects (no news from upstream of features now included in the KDE SC modules) - Candidates for KDE:Extra. This one means the package in KUP doesn't enter in the "Unstable" category, - Unknown status, for packages in the repo for apparently no reason. If you're the maintainer of one of the following packages, please take the appropriate action. The repository cleanup with begin in 7-10 days. - Living packages but obsolete in K:U:P: * gluon (last update: 5 months ago) * kdegames4-extra (last update: 8 months ago) * scribus-unstable (last update: 8 months ago) - Seemingly dead projects: * kitchensync, * krecipes (no news since 2.0-beta2 in november), * nepomuk-playground-backupsync, * plasmate (0.1alpha2 package from 18 months ago), * print-manager (probably useless in KDE >4.6) * plasmaconfig2 (is it useful for anything?) * tristan - Candidates for KDE:Extra: * kparts-plugin * kssh * ktikz * marave * plasmoid-gmailnotifier (last update: 13 months ago) * plasmoid-yasp-scripted * plasmoid-yawp * psi * qxv * simon - Unknown status: * libopensync-plugin-kdepim * libopensync-plugin-akonadi

[opensuse-kde] Strange panel position on login
by Andrea Turrini 30 Sep '11

30 Sep '11

Hi all, I am currently using KDE 4.7 from K:R:47 on my openSUSE 11.4 x86_64. Since my screen in 1366x768, I have set up two vertical panels on the left and right border of the desktop. On login, the right panel is correctly placed, while the left panel is 33 pixels away from the desktop border, as you can see in [1]. It is automatically placed on the left border if I change the screen size (as happens when I switch to an 1900x1200 external monitor) or if I go to Panel settings and then I move a bit the screen edge. If I log out and then login again, the left panel returns as in [1]. How can I have the left panel correctly placed on login, as happens for the right one?

[opensuse-kde] Multiple obs packages with the same source
by todd rme 29 Sep '11

29 Sep '11

I notice in several cases there are several OBS packages with the same source files but with multiple spec files. Examples include kdegames4/kdegames4-carddecks and kdebase4-workspace/python-kdebase4. These seem to make the packages more complicated, harder to maintain, and require additional build resources since everything needs to be built twice. Is there a reason for this separation that overrides the difficulties? If not I can merge them back together. I know something like this wouldn't be done for no reason, but I thought it was possible that these were carried over from earlier days when spec files lacked capabilites they have now (like noarch subpackages) and no one had been seen it as enough of a difficulty to change. -Todd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org
