[opensuse-kde] wastebin-trashcan problem
by Hans de Faber 27 Apr '14

27 Apr '14

Using: Linux 3.11.10-7-desktop openSUSE 13.1 (Bottle) (x86_64) KDE 4.13.0 Hi Everybody, I have a long existing problem. If I login as root i can select in the kde-plasmoids the trashcan. This trashcan works as expected. If I login as user i can only select the wastebin, this wastebin V 1.0 doesn't work. Error "Mallformed URL Trash:/" I renamed my .kde4 directory, a fresh .kde4 dir was then created, logout login, the same problem. How can I remove this wastebin v1.0 ?

Those are also still working and you can search for emails within Kmail. However in Kmail you can not search for files, in dolphin you don't see emails, etc :) So this is where Milou comes in. The krunner is based on Milou, so that one also works. > Thank you so much for the heads up on the changes, btw. The extra > information was very helpful to me. Great to hear. It was the first time that we created a kind of release note as that we believed it was important to set the right expectations for baloo and to make sure that the Nepomuk -> Baloo migration would be done correctly. But given the positive feedback, I think we will do this with every major update (e.g. KDE 4.14).

[opensuse-kde] KDE Desktop Session Locked, unable to unlock: no password entry fields!
by Philip Amadeo Saeli 25 Apr '14

25 Apr '14

I am locked out of my desktop session and the screen locker will not diaplay the user/password entry fields to I can unlock it. After applying the latest updates on my otherwise stock openSUSE-13.1 system via YOU, prior to rebooting the system (by clicking the YaST2 popup which states "These updates require a system reboot to function properly. ... Reboot the system as soon as possible."), I clicked the icon to lock the screen since I had to leave for a while and wanted to wait until I returned to perfrom the systme reboot. The problem is that the screen locker does not display the login dialog at all, but only shows the background image. I've tried every sensible mouse click and keyboard input I could think of with no response. I also tried logging in to a cmdline session and sending various signals and cmdline incantations to the kscreenlocker_greet process (which appears to be the culprit). The only result I was able to achieve was that it would die then quickly respawn in the exact same situation (!?!). What to do? How can I now get back in to my desktop session so I can complete the cleanup of the remaining running interactive processes and preform a graceful reboot of my system? Is there any to kill the screen locker and get back to a normal desktop session? Any ideas (short of a shutdown from another login to the system). I have verified the the Xorg server and related GUI processes for the apps I'd left running (GVim, Konsoles, etc.) are indeed still running BTW, prior to the updates, everything had been working just fine, including the KDE screen locker.

[opensuse-kde] How to configure Konsole to start up with multiple tabs?
by Philip Amadeo Saeli 24 Apr '14

24 Apr '14

Hi, I am running stock openSUSE-13.1 using the KDE desktop. I am rather new to KDE 4 and am still getting used to it and have a number of questions WRT setting it up and using it. This is the first of my questions. I would like to be able to configure Konsole to be able to start up Konsole instances with multiple tabs and other specific attributes. I've investigated Konsole Profiles and the "Manage Profiles" settings, but can't seem to be able to find what settings I will need to accomplish this. With previous versions of KDE (esp KDE 3.x), I was able to create Konsole profiles such that I could start up Konsoles by using a command something like, "konsole --profile MyProfile", and get what I needed. IIRC, I may have had to manually edit some of the files involved to get things just right, but I was able to make it work as desired. Does anything like this (or, at least functionally equivalent, however, it is implemented and configured) in the KDE 4 in openSUSE-13.1?

[opensuse-kde] mixed versions of kdebase4-* packages in KDE:Current for oS 12.3
by mararm 24 Apr '14

24 Apr '14

Hi, I just noticed that I have a mixture of 4.11 ands 4.12 versions in my KDE packages. $ rpm -qa | grep kde | grep 4.11 libproxy1-config-kde4-0.4.11-2.1.1.x86_64 kdeartwork4-sounds-4.11.2-5.1.noarch flash-player-kde4-11.2.202.350-2.68.1.x86_64 kdebase4-workspace-4.11.8-3.1.x86_64 kdebase4-workspace-plasma-calendar-4.11.8-3.1.x86_64 python-kdebase4-4.11.8-3.1.x86_64 kdebase4-workspace-ksysguardd-4.11.8-3.1.x86_64 kdebase4-workspace-liboxygenstyle-4.11.8-3.1.x86_64 kde4-kgreeter-plugins-4.11.8-3.1.x86_64 whereas most of the other are KDE 4.12 as expected, e.g. $ rpm -qa | grep kdebase4 | grep 4.12 kdebase4-nsplugin-4.12.4-1.2.x86_64 kdebase4-wallpaper-default-4.12.4-1.1.noarch kdebase4-wallpapers-4.12.4-1.1.noarch kdebase4-artwork-4.12.4-1.1.noarch kdebase4-session-4.12-1.1.noarch kdebase4-libkonq-4.12.4-1.2.x86_64 kdebase4-runtime-4.12.4-1.2.x86_64 opensuse is $ lsb_release -a LSB Version: n/a Distributor ID: openSUSE project Description: openSUSE 12.3 (x86_64) Release: 12.3 Codename: Dartmouth my repositories are KDE:Current URL: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Current/openSUSE_12.3/ KDE:Extra/Current URL: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Extra/KDE_Current_openSUSE_1… and there are 4.11-packages in the repository, so I don't think this is a local problem, e.g: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Current/openSUSE_12.3/x86_64… Is this intended? Maybe I should notice that I do not have noticed any problems, the system runs fine so far.

No. I changed the repositories to Current and did the update via yast -> Package-> All Packages -> Update if newer version available What is zypper dup doing differently? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] 4.12.97/4.13 bad mouse pointer on window edges
by Felix Miata 23 Apr '14

23 Apr '14

There should be a double arrow, but on a lot of installations lately, the normal pointer remains, and it's difficult to tell when grabbing the edge is possible. Is this happening to others? What package(s) is/are responsible for the available pointers?

[opensuse-kde] kate ghost process
by Malte Gell 22 Apr '14

22 Apr '14

Hello, when I log into KDE a kate process wants to start. There is no kate window appearing, but when I use ctrl-f1 I see a kate process. This "ghost process" even avoids starting other programs! I always have to kill it using ctrl-f1. I looked with find ~/.kde4/ -name "*kate*" but I see nothing that gives a hint what or where kate is being started from... At what point could kate be started from the system? When I leave KDE there is no kate process left, so there is no reason to start a forgotten kate process when logging in again. Any hints on that?

[opensuse-kde] KDE and power saving
by Malte Gell 21 Apr '14

21 Apr '14

Hello, recently I had severe trouble to resume my machine from suspending when I suspended from within the K menu. The Nvidia graphics driver went mad after resuming and I had to kill the X server. And hibernating did not work correctly, the machine did not go down correctly, had to shut it down hard. I used the K menu entries for powersaving. Now I found out something very interesting, when I use the command line tools pm-suspend or pm-hibernate, everything is fine! The Nvidia graphics resumes properly and the machine hibernates perfectly! This leads me to 2 questions, first, what power saving method is used when you use the powersaving entries from within K menu? Second, how can I tell KDE to use the command lind tools pm-suspend and pm-hibernate for powersavin? Pm-suspend and pm-hibernate has only one drawback, it does not lock the KDE session screen, thus anyone who wakes up the machine can get into my KDE session. I´m on openSUSE 13.1 Thanks -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org
