[opensuse-kde] plasmoid smooth tasks make desktop crash
by Malte Gell 24 Jan '12

24 Jan '12

I love the smooth tasks plasmoid. But it crashes the KDE desktop on openSUSE 12.1 and its KDE 4.7. Does anyone know if there is an option in smooth tasks that may work around this crash?

Hi Anders, could you provide me the actual error message that you get? I don't find this rm line in the place you mentioned.

[opensuse-kde] Digikam database migration sqlite -> mysql fails
by Rodney Baker 21 Jan '12

21 Jan '12

This was originally asked on opensuse(a)opensuse.org but got no responses, so I'm trying the KDE list. Hi all. I'm hoping someone else may have come across this and found a solution. I wanted to convert my digikam setup from sqlite to mysql. Digikam includes a database migration tool so I; -Set up a user for digikam in mysql -Created 2 empty databases as required by digikam (one called digikam, one called thumbnails) -Granted global priveleges to the digikam user (UGLY! but it won't work otherwise - digikam complains that "CREATE TRIGGER" priveleges are not granted if you only grant database-level privleges) :-( -Configured digikam to talk to the correct mysql database -Clicked on "Test DB Connection" in Digikam and got "Database connection test successful". So far so good. Unfortunately, when trying to use the database migration tool, I get the an error message: "Error while creating the database schema". Go into mysql and confirm that "show tables;" in each database returns an empty result, so nothing has been created in the databases. OK, maybe digikam wants to create the databases itself..."drop database <dbname>;" - digikam then complains "Error opening target database". Recreate the databases, double check priveleges, still the same result. Running Digikam 2.3.0, KDE 4.6.5 on oS 11.4 with mysql 5.1.53. Has anyone gotten this to work recently? TIA, Rodney. PS There is an open bug for this - according to the bug report it was supposed to have been fixed in 2.0.0 (the bug was raised against 1.9.5) but it seems not to be fixed...it is also reported to work with Ubuntu but to be broken in Fedora and, it seems, oS. Perhaps there is something not correctly packaged... -- =================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.baker(a)iinet.net.au =================================================== -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

Actually I detect a strange things in the KDE:Distro:Stable it seems we have a mix between 4.7.4 and 4.7.2 v | kdebase4-runtime | package | 4.7.4-3.11.1 | x86_64 | kde4-kds v | kdebase4-runtime | package | 4.7.2-3.9.3 | i586 | kde4-kds if a beloved packager can have a look -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch openSUSE Member & Ambassador GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] KDE 4.8 and KDE:Distro:Factory
by Dirk Müller 20 Jan '12

20 Jan '12

Hi, I would like to put KDE 4.8.0 (or 4.8 RC3 rather for now) into KDE:Distro:Factory. The reason is the sooner we start, the better we find the problems. Currently we have 4.7.4 in KDE:Distro:Factory and in KDE:Release:47. I would like to have your opinion on how to move forward: a) I copy KDE 4.7.4 from KDE:Distro:Factory to KDE:Distro:Stable, and delink KDE:Release:47 from KDE:Distro:Factory. Then I Import KDE 4.8 into KDE:Distro:Factory and copy whatever is needed from Unstable:SC to make it build and work. This would mean that future maintenannce updates for 12.1 are based on 4.7.4. I think that is okay, there have even be requests to release 4.7.4 as a maintenance update (in general we're pro this change). b) I delink KDE:Release:47 from KDE:Distro:Factory and leave it at 4.7.4, and then import KDE 4.8 into KDE:Distro:Factory (and copy whatever is needed from Unstable:SC to make it build and work). in this case 12.1 updates would stay on 4.7.2, users who want the later fixes would need to switch to KDE:Release:47 I prefer a). any comments?

[opensuse-kde] today's KR47 upgrade - virtuoso uses 100%
by Jon Nelson 19 Jan '12

19 Jan '12

I upgraded some packages today from KR47. 1. plasma crashed (and moved the screen edge of the taskbar -- very annoying) 2. virtuoso is /hammering/ the CPU. I've already nepomuk search and contacts in krunner. No change. virtuoso-t can *not* be ltraced. It dies with SIGTRAP. What gives? -- Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Rename oxygen-gtk package to oxygen-gtk2 in K:D:F
by Asterios Dramis 18 Jan '12

18 Jan '12

Hi, A new version of oxygen-gtk was just released (1.2.0). Along with this its name changed to oxygen-gtk2 in order to avoid confusion with oxygen-gtk3 (which supports gtk-3.x). I think it makes sense to also rename the oxygen-gtk package to oxygen-gtk2 in K:D:F since: oxygen-gtk2 (means support for gtk 2.x) oxygen-gtk3 (means support for gtk 3.x) What do you think? You can find the renamed package in https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=oxygen- gtk2&project=home%3Aadra Asterios -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

Ilya, Not sure if the packafes are hal-enabled or not. But I went ahead and installed HAL service antway with zypper. Then I did this: /Easystreet:/ # service hald restart and got: service: no such service hald Then I did this: Easystreet:/ # /etc/init.d/haldaemon restart and got: Shutting down HAL daemon done Starting HAL daemon done Easystreet:/ # Any disk I put in the machine, CD or DVD will show up in my media directory but I still do not get the pop-up window asking what to do with the disk.

I know my way around in the openSUSE repositories and the repository search including the home directories (as I've an own home repository). However, I didn't expect skype to be available via the repositories. -- Richard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org
