by Raymond Wooninck 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

As promised I would provide Status updates after each important step in the KDE Repository changes. I would like to inform you all that at this moment all applications based on KDE/Qt, have been moved from KDE:Distro:Factory to KDE:Extra. Also Factory has been changed with regards to the devel-project for these applications. I have also updated the wiki with regards to these changes and you can find the latest version on: http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:KDE_repositories Regards Raymond -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] akonadi problems

Since yesterdays update akonadi doesn't start up and then also kmail fails to start in 3 three of for times when starting kde.

[opensuse-kde] feature list!!
by Jos Poortvliet 21 Oct '13

21 Oct '13

Heya, Not sure who maintains what, but - there's stuff like kdenlive, amarok etc that's still missing in the feature guide: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Major_features I can't even BEGIN to figure out all the apps which are new and not there, any chance you guys & girls can think of what you maintain or what others maintain and add it there? If I know the version change and a link where I can get more info (eg "Amarok from 2.2 to 2.5, link_to_changelogs") I would already be very happy. Better is of course to have a short summary. This makes me happy: GCC 4.8 * Better error reporting: Each diagnostic emitted now includes the original source line text and a caret '^' indicating the column. * initial aarch64 support * for more changes see http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.8/changes.html LLVM 3.3 * initial aarch64 support automake 1.13.x — http://savannah.gnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=7467 This is not super helpful but better than nothing: GNU R 3.0 This is sad: (nothing) Please help?!?!

[opensuse-kde] 12.3/4.10.5 shutdown Vista multiboot Toshiba laptop from KDM login screen?
by Felix Miata 20 Oct '13

20 Oct '13

Is it possible? Reboot works, but not turn off, just switching to a black screen tty login prompt instead. I combed through kdmrc looking for a reason why not, but didn't find one, and in the opensuse mailing lists archives only found http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2013-03/msg00958.html and https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=809610 seemingly on point, neither of which helped. Chipset is i945/ICH7. Installation is only two days old. I didn't notice whether turn off worked before applying updates. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse-kde] can system sounds work by default (or be customized) without pulseaudio installed?
by Felix Miata 18 Oct '13

18 Oct '13

Normally I don't connect speakers to a PC, so my experience with sound is limited. Now I have one which I'll be using for video file editing, so sound needs to work reliably, but does not in 12.1, 12.3 & 13.1m3. It does work in Mageia 3/KDE4 (but only after reconfiguration after adding previously uninstalled pulseaudio), KDE/Fedora 18 & 19 (with pulseaudio installed), and 12.2 running Trinity instead of KDE, and without pulseaudio installed. http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/ contains selected hardware and installed software details as follows: troubleshooting data gathering script for Mageia: http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/sndts.sh loaded snd modules for all installations: http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/sound-big41-modules.txt Mageia 3 (KDE4): before: http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/sound-none-big41-os131m3.txt http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/tsout-big41-mag3.txt after: http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/sound-OK-big41-mag3.txt Fedora 18 & 19 (KDE4): http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/sound-OK-big41-f18.txt http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/tsout-big41-f18.txt http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/sound-OK-big41-f19.txt http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/tsout-big41-f19.txt (in latest F19 boot, on session start "Removed Sound Devices" window appeared, which seems to be a common openSUSE KDE4.x occurrence here, not necessarily on any particular host. In this case: "Capture: HDA Intel, ALC662 rev1 Analog (Default Audio Device) asking "Do you want KDE to permanently forget about these devices?") 12.1 (KDE3): http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/sound-none-big41-os121.txt http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/tsout-big41-os121.txt 12.2 (Trinity): http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/sound-OK-big41-os122.txt http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/tsout-big41-os122.txt 12.3 (KDE4): http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/sound-OK-big41-os123.txt http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/tsout-big41-os123.txt (MM apps installed: kdenlive, smplayer2, vlc; KDE 4.10.5) 13.1 (KDE4): http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/sound-OK-big41-os131m3.txt http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Sound/tsout-big41-os131m3.txt https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Audio_troubleshooting and https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Pulseaudio seem to be of minimal use for "supported" installations, in this host's current case, only for 12.1. According to YaST2 in 12.3 & 13.1, the Intel HDA controller is configured, but without any mention of the string "realtek" as noted in dmesg and lsmod. Sound works when play test sound is selected, but there are no event sounds of any kind. Most notably absent are the startup and end session sounds. KMix shows 91% as default setting. The right click menu on the KMix icon on the panel shows 5 selections, among them, "Audio Setup", which when clicked does nothing, in both 4.10.5 & 4.10.97. Clicking on Multimedia in http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/KDE/ss4105-os123-120.png crashes systemsettings, again in both 4.10.5 & 4.10.97, so I can't even tell without booting something else where KDE4 sounds are supposed to be configured (apparently here, as in F18/19 this opens a Phonon Sound and Video Configuration window that includes "Notifications"). What's missing here? Does pulseaudio even have anything to do with this? Is there some kde package that KDE sounds and/or KMix depend on that isn't getting pulled in as a hard dependency (phonon/libphonon4?)? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse-kde] New KDE repository layout (Final)
by Raymond Wooninck 13 Oct '13

13 Oct '13

Based on the feedback received on the initial proposal, I would like to indicate below which changes will be done on the KDE repositories Repositories that are not mentioned, will be removed. KDE:Qt* : No changes for the KDE:Qt repositories. We are currently busy setting up the structure for the Qt 5.x builds. KDE:Release:XY The older KRXY (before KR411) will not change. KR411 will be build for 12.2, 12.3 and 13.1 and will contain only the KDE SC packages. New repositories will be set-up starting with the KDE SC Release Candidates and will be build for the current openSUSE release and the previous one. Example: KDE 4.12 RC will be available for openSUSE 13.1 and 12.3 in the KR412 repository and then will receive updates based on the released tarballs (Final, .1, .2, etc) KDE:Distro:Factory: This repository will contain only the KDE SC packages and will be the development repository for the KDE SC packages in Factory. This repository will normally only build for Factory, as that the equivalent can also be found in the KRXY repository. The only exception is that as soon as the Beta of the new KDE SC release is available, then KDF will switch to the Beta and then we will build for Factory and the current openSUSE release. (Example KDE 4.12 Beta will be build for Factory and openSUSE 13.1. This to validate the build for openSUSE 13.1 and repair build errors, before the RC will be available in KDE:Release:412. Remaining question is if we remain building for oS 13.1 in KDF after KR412 has been created or that we encourage people to switch to KR412). Your openSUSE KDE community team KDE:Extra: This repository will contain all additional applications that are not part of the KDE SC (e.g. Amarok, Konversation, Calligra). This repository will become the new development repository for those application packages that are currently in Factory. This repository will be build against all supported oS/KDE versions. KDE:Unstable:Extra: This repository will contain git snapshots, alpha's and betas of the packages in KDE:Extra. We will build against the same targets as KDE:Extra, but we will be more stricter on the lifecycle. Non-maintained packages (e.g. lower version than in KDE:Extra, build failures, etc) will be deleted from this repository on a frequest basis. KDE:Unstable:SC This repository will be the development repository for the openSUSE KDE team. It contains git snapshots of the upcoming KDE SC version and is considered as suitable for only the very experienced users. Users of the repository should expect breakage, packaging errors, non-working systems, etc. Patches and Packaging changes will be executed and validated first in this repository before implementing them in KDF. This repository will only be build for the 64bit version of Factory and the current openSUSE release. As indicated before, we are planning to execute these changes in the next two weeks. When each step is successfully completed, a status update will be send out to this mailing list. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] 13.1RC1 - gstreamer-0_10 still required?
by Felix Miata 12 Oct '13

12 Oct '13

Knowing gstreamer 1 is current, during 13.1RC1 minimal X installation I tabooed gstreamer-0_10. Now I want to install minimalist KDM/KDE, including phonon-backend-vlc, konq, konsole, ksnapshot, kcalc, kmix, but runtime requires libQtWebKit. Because of uninstallable libQtWebKit, zypper wants to either skip installing most everything useful about KDE, or allow gstreamer-0_10. 1-Why is libQtWebKit even relevant? It isn't taboo'd. I only use KHTML in Konq (WebKit doesn't support absolute font sizes). 2-Why is antique gstreamer required (what actually needs it)? y2logs: http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=563172 -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
