[opensuse-kde] context menus & window backgrounds, brief corrupt image
by johnm 04 Jul '12

04 Jul '12

openSUSE 12.1 x86_64, ATI catalyst / fglrx driver 11.12, KDE 4.7.2 I assumed this was just some quirk only affecting myself, but maybe I'll ask if anyone else is seeing this. Whenever I right click to open a context menu, it briefly draws some corrupt garbage looking stuff where the context menu should be. It quickly disappears and the context menu is drawn properly... ? This happens with 'desktop effects' enabled or disabled. Although it is less garbage-y looking with them disabled. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Call for testing: New factory glibc
by Andreas Jaeger 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

I have a new glibc that contains fixes for two problems that have biten a few of you: * crashes in chromium or ktorrent if nscd is not running (or unscd is used) (bnc#741021) * Fix crash in KDE while starting glibc (bnc#753251). For the second bug I have confirmation that it's fixed on x86 but it might be that x86-64 contains another bug. Since the fix for the KDE crash involved removing another patch (and adding a couple of backports) and that patch fixed a rather large showstopper for openSUSE 11.4 (the missing symbols in KDE and subversion - bnc#657627), I'm doing a call for testing: If you're hit by either of the bugs, please test the new glibc from: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/a_jaeger:/my-factory-packag… Also, testing by others is welcome to be sure that the glibc does not introduce new bugs like the 11.4 showstopper. Please report any results back to me - or better use the two bugzilla mentioned above. thanks, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger aj(a){suse.com,opensuse.org} Twitter/Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GF: Jeff Hawn,Jennifer Guild,Felix Imendörffer,HRB16746 (AG Nürnberg) GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] annoying/long standing bugs -> TODOs for 12.2
by Christian Trippe 31 Mar '12

31 Mar '12

Hello, during the last meeting on IRC there was an agreement that for KDE on 12.2 stability and polish should be the main focus. So one task was to collect often reported and/or annoying bugs which where reported for openSUSE =< 12.1 and to check if they are still valid and if yes to fix them with reasonable effort. To support this I tried to collect a list of such bugs in the wiki: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:KDE_Annoying_Bugs My main focus was here clearly on openSUSE specific bugs as IMHO many of the (most visible) bugs in 4.7 are fixed with 4.8. Although kdepim will surely have high priority for the upcoming release. If you have know other bugs, where you think they would fit in this list, feel free to add them as I surely have misted some. It would be even more helpful, if you could check if some of these bugs really still exist with 12.2 and this is not only based on my guess. The best thing of course would be if you could fix some of them. Christian Ps: The above of course does not only apply to the bugs mentioned in the above wiki page, but to all the (KDE related) bugs on bugzilla.novell.com. Helping with bug triage is always welcome and an easy way to contribute. If you want to help the following pages should have the necessary information and you always ask on the mailing list and on IRC: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bugreport_KDE http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bug_Screening_KDE http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bug_Squashing_KDE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] aspell
by Cor Blom 28 Mar '12

28 Mar '12

Hi, KDE is built with both aspell and enchant support. Enchant is a frontend for different backend (hunspell/myspell is default, but the package in openSUSE has also support for aspell, ispell and a few more specialised backends). KDE does not have a real interface to choose between aspell of enchant. You can only choose the language and when both aspell and myspell dictionaries are installed, you get two possibilities for each language and only through some experimenting you can discover which choise belong to which spellchecker backend. Not really user friendly. I would like to do a SR to remove aspell from the BuildRequires in kdelibs4. KDE is then build only with enchant. I already did an experimental build in home:cornelisbb:spellcheck and did not discover any problems. But first I like to ask for some feedback. The choice for enchant is to be preferred, because hun/myspell is then default. A combination of hunspell and enchant is then used systemwide as default in the most important apps: firefox, thunderbird, libreoffice, gnome. Installing the myspell dictionaries is then enough.

[opensuse-kde] Nepomuk cannot be disabled to prevent its announcement of failure to start every login
by Felix Miata 27 Mar '12

27 Mar '12

[I started to write this up as a bug, then decided better to discuss here, as I have no idea whether this is a mere packaging issue specific to openSUSE or not. I looked for something like it upstream and found nothing.] I had to do a textmode 12.2M2 install, so to minimize the pain only did a minimal server, with Grub Legacy and sysvinit-init. Then I did zypper al (inter alia) kdepim4 to try to keep it minimal, then added various X/KDE packages using only zypper, with solver.onlyRequires = true, a truly minimal KDE intended. I thought that would give me 0 *pim* packages installed, but kdepimlibs4 and libkdepimlibs4 got installed anyway, and trying to zypper rm them wants to remove essentially all of KDE. On every KDE login, "Semantic Data Storage; Nepomuk Semantic Desktop needs the Virtuoso RDF server to store its data. Installing the Virtuoso Soprano plugin is mandatory for using Nepomuk." I don't want Nepomuk to do anything, so I want to disable it, but cannot, because systemsettings also says some requirement is unfulfilled that disables the whole panel from being used to turn Nepomuk off. Whatever makes Nepomuk try to start should also ensure systemsettings can be used to configure it, so the package containing it should pull in whatever it depends on during its installation, and refuse to install if the dep is not fulfilled. If that is a situation that is impossible or impractical to implement, at the very least, when its dep is not available (not installed), Nepomuk should never even try to start. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse-kde] ksysguard rpm missing files
by Martin Koller 26 Mar '12

26 Mar '12

In the RPMs from KDE:/Release:/48/openSUSE_12.1/ there are the files missing, which come from the sourcetree in KDE kde-workspace/libs/ksysguard/scripts/ whichs leads to the problem, that the context menu in the "System Activity" (Taskmanager) does no longer include the "detailed memory report" entry. With KDE 4.6.5 on an openSuse 11.3 system I find the files in the package kdebase4-workspace-4.6.5-9.1.i586, e.g.: /usr/share/kde4/apps/ksysguard/scripts /usr/share/kde4/apps/ksysguard/scripts/README /usr/share/kde4/apps/ksysguard/scripts/smaps /usr/share/kde4/apps/ksysguard/scripts/smaps/helper.js /usr/share/kde4/apps/ksysguard/scripts/smaps/index.html /usr/share/kde4/apps/ksysguard/scripts/smaps/main.js /usr/share/kde4/apps/ksysguard/scripts/smaps/smaps.desktop /usr/share/kde4/apps/ksysguard/scripts/smaps/sorttable.js /usr/share/kde4/apps/ksysguard/scripts/smaps/style.css The files are neither in kdebase4-workspace-4.8.1-729.7.i586 nor in kdebase4-workspace-ksysguardd-4.8.1-729.7.i586 Can these files be included again, please ? -- Best regards/Schöne Grüße Martin A: Because it breaks the logical sequence of discussion Q: Why is top posting bad?

[opensuse-kde] KDE:Unstable:Playground:Telepathy ready for testing
by Christophe Giboudeaux 26 Mar '12

26 Mar '12

Hi, During the last meeting, the decision was made to create a KDE:Unstable:Playground:Telepathy repository. As the name suggests, it contains the unstable KDE-Telepathy packages. I'll remove the packages currently in KDE:Unstable:Playground in a couple days. QA: 1/ Why creating another repository ? - The reason is quite simple: the KDE Telepathy code needs some packages that are not available in Opensuse < 12.2. The dependencies were fixed by linking some packages from the OpenSUSE:Factory repository. The consequence is that enabling this new repository *may* break your Gnome Installation if you have one. The following packages were linked: - farstream, - gstreamer-0_10( + plugins-base & plugins-bad), - mjpegtools, - pidgin, - telepathy-farstream, - telepathy-glib, - telepathy-logger Note that you may prefer the Packman repository for the GStreamer packages. 2/ Why aren't there 11.4 packages ? - The dependencies were almost unable to meet, really. More packages would have been linked, namely: libnice, librdf, vala, glib2 > 2.30, GCC 4.6 and probably more. 3/ How to enable this repository ? - I just updated http://en.opensuse.org/KDE_repositories, the modifications might take a couple hours/days to appear. 4/ What should I install ? - There is a meta package that will install the base packages. Just install "telepathy-kde". Additionally, you may install the following packages: - ktp-call-ui, - ktp-ssh-contact 5/ Will there be stable packages ? Yes. Our goal is to have the KDE-telepathy packages in OpenSUSE 12.2. KDE:Distro:Factory will host the stable packages when KDE-Telepathy 0.4 is out. 6/ How to report issues ? - Reply to this message for *installations* issues, Use https://bugs.kde.org for any other issue. Have fun !

[opensuse-kde] Creating a 'x86_64/libqt4-32bit-devel' package from parts of the i586/libqt4-devel' package
by Claus Christmann 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

Good Afternoon While fighting a '32bit-compile-on-64bit-system' fight I noticed that there are no .so symlinks for the Qt libraries in /usr/lib/, there are only the libQt*.so.? symlinks which can be created with ldconfig. Normally the package libqt4-devel provides those .so links. However, on a x86_64 setup, libqt4-devel only has the symlinks for /usr/lib64 which makes sense, as the whole 32bit Qt (user) stuff is in libqt4-32bit, which is not a requirement to have when one installs libqt4-devel on a x86_64 system. After I made all the symlinks in /usr/lib by hand, I noticed that the libqt4-devel package for the i586 systems obviously contained those symlinks (among some other stuff). So here is my question: Could "somebody" make a x86_64/libqt4-32bit-devel package by "simply" (I have no idea how to do this and hence can't really judge if that indeed is simple...) taking the i586/libqt4-devel package, take out all the stuff other than /usr/lib/*, and repackaging it as x86_64/libqt4-32bit-devel? This would allow people who need to compile Qt projects both for 32 and 64 bit targets to install that package and safe some typing or GUI clicking (and even more time when they, like me, don't realize that this is the reason why CMake's find_library() doesn't return the expected results... but that's off-topic) As this is my first post to the list and I don't really know much about the hole magic around RPM packaging either (so far I've only been a happy user), I would appreciate any feedback/hint/how-to or nudge in some (other) direction. Also, please let me know if this list is not the right place to bring this up. Thanks for reading my post.

[opensuse-kde] Freezing old subprojects
by todd rme 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

I notice that we have a number of subproject for versions of KDE that are not being updated and openSUSE releases that are not being updated. Examples include: KDE:Release:46 KDE:Release:47 KDE:Qt45 KDE:Qt46 KDE:Qt47 Is there a reason we need to leave these enabled? Are they getting a significant amount changes? If not, to free up resources, might it be a good idea to disable building on these repos? I notice that the last build of kdelibs on KDE:Release:46 was yesterday, so there is apparently still builds going on there. Also, off-topic but it looks like openSUSE 11.3 is still enabled on some, I think it should probably be removed outright. -Todd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Can I load a KDE panel with my own settings?
by Alexander Beck-Ratzka 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

Hi Folks, it is still not possible to add starter menues by Kickoff Application Launcher -> Applications and then right click and select "add to panel" (this operation adds the Kickoff Application starter to the panel, irrespective the starter menu you have selected, and the added Kickoff application launcher then open a window where you can select your deired application to be launched...) I have opened a bug report on this, but nothing is happening; therefore I am thinking of a workaround as follows... I am so lucky to have a still working panel with self created application starter menues (e.g. Eclipse which offers me different Eclipse releases...) on my laptop at work, and I also have the configuration file of this panel. So I would be able - at least in principle - to start a panel on my desktop at home using this configuration file. All what I need to know is, how can I start a KDE panel with a different configuration file. Is there ny option which enables this? Another possiblity might be, that I am changing the panel config file "plasma- desktop-appletsrc" in $HIOME/.kde/share/config, and the restart KDE without saving its session during shutdown. How can I do this? Best wishes Alexander -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

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] Cannot add self created program menues to panel
by Alexander Beck-Ratzka 16 Mar '12

16 Mar '12

Hi Folks, I have instaleld openSuSE 21.1 64-Bit, and I am using KDE for my work. My current KDE realease is: Plattform-Version 4.7.2 (4.7.2) "release 5" If I try to add a program menu either self created with kmenuedit or an already available menu (e.g. multimedia) going over... Kickoff application launcher -> applications -> multimedia so it should be possible to add the multimedia menu to to the panel by clicking on the right mouse button and selecting "add to panel". However, the menu entry is not added to the panel, the whole applcations are added to the panel. Any hints or ideas?

[opensuse-kde] KDE doesn't lock my screen
by José Ricardo De León Solís 15 Mar '12

15 Mar '12

Hi everyone, As mentioned in the subject, KDE doesn't lock my screen. Right now I'm running 4.8.1 from KR48 but it also happened with the default kde packages from the 12.1 OSS repo. Since I haven't seen any complaints about this I assume it works for everyone else, so my question is: how do I fix it? This is important since privacy matters to me, so I'd appreciate any help that I can get.

[opensuse-kde] CPU monitor fails to detect any CPUs after upgrade to 4.8.1
by Vadym Krevs 15 Mar '12

15 Mar '12

Hello. I've recently upgraded to KDE 4.8.1 from 4.8.0 on 12.1, and as a result neither the CPU Monitor applet, not the System Load applet, nor the System Monitor would display the CPU usage history anymore. Gnome's system monitor has no such problem. Tried deleting .kde4/{share,config}/apps/ksysguard* files and folders, it seemed to work for a day, and after a logoff/login stopped working again (and deleting these files has no effect anymore). Any clues? https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=295519 -- Regards, Vadym -- 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 in Tumblweed
by Greg Kroah-Hartman 12 Mar '12

12 Mar '12

Hi all, I'm working to get the KDE 4.8 release into openSUSE:Tumbleweed, so all of your hard work can get out to more users. However, I've run into a little problem with the libqt4 package. Right now, it's an "aggregate" link to the KDE:Qt repo. When I link to it in openSUSE:Tumbleweed, I get the error: missing repositories: KDE:Qt/openSUSE_Tumbleweed_standard This is because you haven't added the Tumbleweed repo as a build target in KDE:Qt, which is fine, that's your choice. But, because of this, how do you suggest that I resolve the problem? Should I just link to the libqt4 project in the KDE:Qt/ repo? Oh wait, that's what I did the last time around for KDE in Tumbleweed, nevermind then. So, I'll leave this as an open question, is this the best way for me to handle libqt4 in Tumbleweed? Is there other packages that I should be linking to different repos other than KDE:Release:48? And are there packages that I should not be linking to for tumbleweed from this repo? I'm obviously not going to link to the ones that are not being built for openSUSE:12.1, but any other hints or tips would be appreciated. If you all want to see how it looks so far, it's building at the moment in the openSUSE:Tumbleweed:Testing repo: https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor?project=openSUSE%3ATumbleweed%3A… thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] ksplash theme uses wrong image size
by Malte Gell 07 Mar '12

07 Mar '12

Hello! I use OS 12.1 with KDE 4.7. I have a screen resolution of 1680x1050 dots. Thus I use a ksplash image of exactly the same size to cover the whole screen. But, ksplash actually does not cover the whole screen with that image, though the image exactly has the screen´s resolution size... I do not understand this. Can anyone give me a hint? I can expand the background image as much as I want to, ksplash simply does not show it to its full size....

But KR48 is also in broken state, not only KDF. Why don't You - KDE maintainers - use a publish flag?

[opensuse-kde] Upgrading Problem, 11.0 to 11.4, back to 11.0
by Bob Rea 03 Mar '12

03 Mar '12

I tried to go from 11.0 to 11.4. In trying to configure the Desktop and KDE, my video went wonky, that is to say a mess. I don't know what I did. When I reinstalled 11.4, all I got in KDE was a blank screen. I reinstalled 11.0 from a cd. So I list any upgrades and other things that I had added. I recall somewhile back someone saying there was a repository for 11.0 saved somewhere. Could someone kindly tell me where. -- Bob Rea mailto:gapetard@stsams.org http://www.petard.us http://www.petard.us/blog http://www.petard.us/gallery Where is Bill Stringfellow now that we really need him? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Another Problem Upgrading Problem, 11.0 to 11.4, back to 11.0
by Bob Rea 03 Mar '12

I tried to upgrade from 11.0 to 11.4, failed, and reinstalled 11.0. I had a second hard drive at /home/bob/storage. After I reinstalled KDE didn't see it. Gwenview did see it until I pointed it to a directory in the primary drive. After that, it didn't see it. Here is my fstab: bob@linux-boh7:~> mount /dev/sda2 on / type ext3 (rw,acl,user_xattr) proc on /proc type proc (rw) sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw) debugfs on /sys/kernel/debug type debugfs (rw) udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,mode=0620,gid=5) /dev/sda3 on /home type ext3 (rw,acl,user_xattr) /dev/sdb1 on /home/storage type reiserfs (rw) fusectl on /sys/fs/fuse/connections type fusectl (rw) securityfs on /sys/kernel/security type securityfs (rw) none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw) Is the problem that sdb1 is reiserfs? How can I change that? Or can I reinstall 11.0 in such a way that it will see the files on sdb1?

[opensuse-kde] KR repos having files with unresolvable dependencies
by Stefan Vater 03 Mar '12

03 Mar '12

Hi, I do not understand it. Nearly every time, when a new 4.x.x version came up the last times, some days in advance / or just before there was a working version in this repo, there were some packages in there, which have dependencies which cannot fulfilled at the moment. Right now for example, there is a kdelibs4 (4.8.0) package, which requires kdebase4-runtime >= 4.8.1, but kdebase4-runtime is 4.8.0. Also there is a kdebase4-session 4.8.1, which requires kdebase4-workspace >= 4.8.1 ... When I look at OBS, a lot of packages are still unresolvable. Is it not possible to wait with the publishing when a new maintenance version comes up, until most of the packages have been built correctly? Otherwise, one always has to look at OBS and other sources to get some clue what is going on. Sorry, but that is really annoying :-( or even might get a broken installation. I know, these repos are only for people, who know what they are doing, but still the repo should not be broken at some point. Some clarification about this issue would be very much welcome. But please do not start up another discussion, which repo should be used by which people... Regards, Stefan P.S.: I found it also a very nice idea (which came up on this list) to just give a short notice, when a new (maintenance) release is ready for download. And thanks for your otherwise good work, anyway! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org
