KDE Applications 24.02.2: KGet Issue
by Frank Krüger 20 May '24

20 May '24

Hi there, Given TW20240419 with KDE Plasma 6.0.4 and kget-24.02.2-1.1.x86_64, it always stops downloading, e.g. using the metalink at https://get.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/#download, at 24 %. Worked fine before with Plasma 5. I couldn't find any related bug at Bugzilla nor at KDE's buglist. Any idea? Thx. Regards, Frank

KDE Pim Apps fail on Wayland/Tumbleweed/Plasma6
by Rodney Baker 11 Apr '24

11 Apr '24

Hi all, Ever since the Tumbleweed snapshot containing the liblzma fix/rollback, Kmail is refusing to run under Wayland/Plasma 6 (running Nvidia GTX1080 with driver version 550.67 from the Nvidia website). If I log into a Plasma X11 session immediately after boot, or if I start a Plasma Wayland session and then logout before starting Kmail and start a Plasma X11 session, Kmail works fine. If I attempt to run Kmail under Plasma Wayland, the window appears and sometimes has the folder list populated, but it hangs indefinitely and shows "Starting" in the status line. Clicking on it results in the unresponsive app dialog and the only option is to kill it. If I then log out and log into a Plasma X11 session without rebooting, Kmail starts but after 2 minutes a dialog appears that says, "The application has experienced a critical error and will now close" (or words to that effect). Running it from a command line produces the following: [13801:14241:0405/231901.115472:ERROR:vaapi_wrapper.cc(1319)] vaQuerySurfaceAttributes failed, VA error: invalid parameter [13801:14241:0405/231901.115495:ERROR:vaapi_wrapper.cc(1267)] FillProfileInfo_Locked failed for va_profile VAProfileH264Main and entrypoint VAEntrypointVLD [13801:14241:0405/231901.115504:ERROR:vaapi_wrapper.cc(1319)] vaQuerySurfaceAttributes failed, VA error: invalid parameter [13801:14241:0405/231901.115510:ERROR:vaapi_wrapper.cc(1267)] FillProfileInfo_Locked failed for va_profile VAProfileH264High and entrypoint VAEntrypointVLD Followed by a segfault. If I reboot and log straight into a Plasma X11 session it works fine again, until I next try to run it under Wayland. I also tried running it under Wayland from a Konsole session using 'kmail -- platform xcb', which worked for 2 mins and then produced exactly the same error, followed by: src/gbm_drv_common.c:130: GBM-DRV error (get_bytes_per_component): Unknown or not supported format: 808530000 src/gbm_drv_common.c:130: GBM-DRV error (get_bytes_per_component): Unknown or not supported format: 808530000 src/gbm_drv_common.c:130: GBM-DRV error (get_bytes_per_component): Unknown or not supported format: 808530000 src/gbm_drv_common.c:130: GBM-DRV error (get_bytes_per_component): Unknown or not supported format: 808530000 src/gbm_drv_common.c:130: GBM-DRV error (get_bytes_per_component): Unknown or not supported format: 808530000 And the same "Critical error" dialog. It has worked fine under Wayland for months, before and after the upgrade to Plasma 6 - it's only in the last week or so that it has begun to fail. Any clues where to look next?

discover
by Ianseeks 08 Apr '24

08 Apr '24

Hi Since Plasma 6 upgrade, i've been getting Discover notifications. I've managed to stop them appearing using systemsettings (set to "never") but that implies it still runs but no longer shows the notifications. Does this stop it running? regards Ian openSUSE Tumbleweed 20240404 kwin 6.0.3 kmail2 6.0.1 (24.02.1) - akonadiserver 6.0.1 (24.02.1) - Kernel: 6.8.2-1- default - kernel-firmware-radeon 20240322

plasma-pass
by Jason Craig 21 Mar '24

21 Mar '24

I've updated plasma-pass[0] to the latest version and then with patches and an updated spec file to work and build w/Plasma 6. I'm happy to report that it now works for me again (at least on TW/Plasma 6/X11). I plan to submit the patches upstream. In the meantime, should I submit changes to KDE:Extra or wait for upstream? Also, at least one other package in KDE:Extra I noticed there is "foo-kf5" that presumably was the old stuff which still works for Plasma 5 and then "foo" which is now building with KF6/Qt6. Should we do this for plasma-pass too? And if so how/who would do this? -- Jason Craig [0] https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:jacraig:branches:KDE:Extra/pla…

kssl and self-signed certificates
by auxsvr＠gmail.com 17 Mar '24

17 Mar '24

Hello, Using KDE 6 on Tumbleweed, there is no obvious way to configure trusted TLS certificates (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=482585), which results in annoying pop-ups when a self-signed certificate is used. kssl is using /etc/xdg/ksslcalist and /usr/share/kf5/kssl/ca-bundle.crt to store certificates, so should I edit them directly? Regards, Petros

Bugzilla - openSUSE_Krypton not listed
by Ulf 10 Feb '24

10 Feb '24

Hi I have installed openSUSE_Krypton on my PC, and have some observations. But if I will enter it at Bugzilla, openSUSE_Krypton is not listed at the Product selector. Should I enter it at Tumbleweed or somewhere else? Observations I would report: * Installation: * No Repos are not activated - need to be activated manually * Partitioning - if there will be more than 1 drive selected, the partitioning won't consider it properly (I think more an generic - or Tumbleweed issue) * Startup * openSUSE-Welcome is not including a link to the Plasma-Welcome screen (especially due to the fact, that there are some configurations included) * Others * Preinstalled Packages - I would do there a proposal Cheers Ulf

KDE/Plasma6 Repo for Testing (bug search support)
by Ulf 03 Feb '24

03 Feb '24

Hi openSUSE-KDE Team, is there a possibility to add a repo for Plasma 6 RC2? I would test it on my not productive used Notebook. By the way, if I download https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Medias/images/iso/ openSUSE_Krypton.x86_64.iso The installation brakes after before finished in a kvm/quemu session. (Version from 2024-02-01 at least) Thanks Ulf

Problems with current Qt6 packages (please update)
by Johannes Obermayr 30 Jan '24

30 Jan '24

Hi, and sorry to post it here but Admins don't respond to my try to get boo with IDP working again. Please update Qt6 packages to hopefully make KDE:Unstable:* packages working. While translating I got a lot of errors like https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=479735 and was told via Matrix channel root is/was in Qt6 and fixed upstream. Also when trying to open Discover I get now: [ 221.418313] QQmlThread[4185]: segfault at 1a ip 00007f2736d5cc87 sp 00007f27215fe3c0 error 4 in libQt6Qml.so.6.6.1[7f2736ae5000+363000] likely on CPU 0 (core 0, socket 0) [ 221.418322] Code: 07 00 00 c6 44 24 20 00 e9 35 fe ff ff 66 0f 1f 44 00 00 41 8b 37 85 f6 0f 84 ed 00 00 00 48 8b 43 08 48 8b 38 e8 79 7a 0c 00 <80> 78 1a 00 0f 84 1f 05 00 00 49 8b 57 50 44 8b 52 10 45 85 d2 7f Thanks.

Strange future timestamp issue on some emails in KMail
by Rodney Baker 29 Jan '24

29 Jan '24

Hi all. I'm at a bit of a loss with this one, and I'm not entirely sure that it's specifically an openSUSE issue, but I'm hoping someone here will at least be able to point me in the right direction. Setup: Ntop-NG running on a Raspberry Pi (Debian Bookworm), generating alert emails sent to a local mail server (running on a Debian Bookworm VM) using Dovecot for serving emails via IMAP (emails stored in ~/Maildir). Procmail running on the mail server sorting emails into specific sub-folders under the users' Maildir folders. KMail on Tumbleweed retrieving IMAP emails from that local Dovecot mail server. Timezone is Australian Central Summer Time (UTC+10:30), timezone is correct on desktop machine, (Tumbleweed), NTOP-NG and mail server. The timestamp in the KMail message list is exactly 10:30 ahead of the actual time the message was received from NTOP-NG (as seen by viewing the message source in Kmail, meaning that recent messages are being shown as received in the future. It's almost like the timezone offset is being applied incorrectly by KMail, but I cannot figure out why. The times for the same emails in the message list in Thunderbird are shown correctly, so it does look like a KMail issue, but why it only seems to apply to these specific messages in this specific folder has got me beat.

Update plan for the KDE unstable repositories
by Christophe Marin 23 Jan '24

23 Jan '24

Hello, The first frameworks 6 / plasma 6 releases will be out in a couple months. The initial release schedule was posted a couple days ago: https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-devel/2023-September/002008.html Let's take a tour of the incoming changes to the KDE unstable repositories [1] 1- KDE:Unstable:Frameworks Currently, this repository provides: - KDE Frameworks 5 snapshots based on the 'kf5' branch - Plasma 5 snapshots based on the '5.27' branch Soon, the repository will provide: - KDE Frameworks 5 snapshots (kf5 branch) - KDE Frameworks 6 snapshots (master branch) - Plasma 5 snapshots (5.27 branch) - Plasma 6 snapshots (master branch) 2- KDE:Unstable:Applications This repository provides snapshots of applications released with the 'release gear' bundle. Applications that are already ported upstream will be updated automatically. 3- KDE:Unstable:Extra The repository provides snapshots for some of the applications present in KDE:Extra. Important: KDE Frameworks 5 and 6 are co-installable, but Plasma 5 and 6 can't coexist on the same system. yast and zypper will require your attention the first time you install plasma 6 packages. Mini Q/A: 1 - What should be reported to openSUSE / Upstream? Most issues you will encounter have to be reported to https://bugs.kde.org if no report exists yet. Issues we're interested in: - Unresolvable installation issues. (e.g: 'nothing provides 'qt6qmlimport(QtQuick.Dialogs.1) >= 3' needed by the to be installed kdeplasma6-addons [...]' ). Some of these installation problems can be fixed in our packages, some are caused by upstream issues (like the message above). - Conflicting files - Non-KDE packages that would be uninstalled due to missing dependency. Either fill a bug report on https://bugzilla.opensuse.org for these cases or drop a message on the #opensuse-kde IRC channel [2] Even if you don't get an immediate answer, that doesn't mean your message won't be read. 2 - Will plasma 6 be available for Leap? The unstable repositories currently build for Leap 15.4 and 15.5. We try to keep most packages building for these versions but it's not always possible. Note that Leap 15.4 will reach EOL in 2 months. [3] Adding the Qt 6 repository will be required for Leap users. Even if you decide to stick with Plasma 5 for the moment, packages from KDE:Unstable:Applications will use Frameworks 6 / Qt 6. [4] The wiki page will be updated. That's all for now, don't forget to make backup of your data before updating to the next major version.

[KDE][TW] Are you sure you want to paste 11,769 characters? Do not ask again.
by Felix Miata 19 Jan '24

19 Jan '24

I always check "Do not ask again", but it always asks this, when I copy a large quantity of Konsole command output into mcedit running in mc in another Konsole tab. How can I make it stop lying, and simply accept the paste without interruption? I've looked through systemsettings5 and Konsole configuration without finding anything that would turn this confirmation on or off. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.

[kde] 15.6 Konsole "Don't Ask Again" is apparently not configurable
by Felix Miata 07 Jan '24

07 Jan '24

In Konsole>Configure>General at the bottom on the list of settings is "Notifications" at left, and what looks like an input box to its right. In the box is 'Enable all "Don't Ask Again" messages'. I can find no way to change this in 15.6. I don't ever want to see "Don't Ask Again" messages anywhere, ever. Yet, it always happens when I paste over a certain amount of characters/lines copied from Konsole screen into an editor. How/where is this supposed to be configured? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!

heic thumbnails
by Giacomo Comes 04 May '23

04 May '23

Hi, I have a question about thumbnails of heic images. In Leap 15.4 in order to have heic support in plasma you need to install libheif from packman and following what is written here: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=444976 and here: https://invent.kde.org/network/kio-extras/-/commit/667f8dd3ee884192602a9242… it is necessary to put in /usr/share/kservices5/imagethumbnail.desktop MimeType=image/*;video/x-mng; With that in place dolphin is able to show thumbnail preview of heic images. Now I'm testing Leap 15.5. thumbnail preview of heic images still does not work and the file /usr/share/kservices5/imagethumbnail.desktop does not exist anymore. Any suggestion about how to make dolphin show thumbnails of heic images in Leap 15.5 (and tumbleweed as well)? Regards, Giacomo

Disable Anti-Aliasing for just one font or application?
by John Magolske 14 Apr '23

14 Apr '23

Hi, I'm on Tumbleweed, KDE, and am trying to get set up where my urxvt terminal is displaying a bitmap font without anti-aliasing. In the "Fonts - System Settings" panel Anti-Aliasing is enabled. If I un-check this box to disable, the fonts will no longer be anti-aliased in the urxvt terminal, but everywhere else as well -- which is not what I want. Is there a way to selectively disable anti-aliasing for just urxvt or just the font I'm using there? This would be the PragmataPro font, which does have nice bitmaps. But I'm not finding a way to selectively turn off anti-aliasing for it. In ~/.Xresources I have: URxvt.font: xft:PragmataPro:pixelsize=34:antialias=false:hinting=1:hintstyle=hintmedium In ~/.config/fontconfig/rendering-options.conf I see:   <match target="pattern" > <edit name="force_bw_monospace" mode="assign"> <bool>true</bool> </edit> </match> ...but not sure if anything can be done with that, as this is a DO NOT EDIT generated file, which points to /etc/sysconfig/fonts-config ... so I tried editing that file, changing the following option from "no" to "yes" : # Force black and white rendering. Fonts will not get smoothed with # the benefit of high contrast betwen font and background. # #FORCE_BW="no" FORCE_BW="yes" and then ran the fonts-config command, but this made no difference. Any suggestions re how to selectively turn off anti-aliasing? Thanks for any help, John -- John Magolske http://b79.net/contact

Action required: KDE repo key change, KDE:Unstable will contain Plasma 5.27
by Fabian Vogt 28 Feb '23

28 Feb '23

Hello, The OBS project keys for the KDE:* (but not KDE:Extra!) and KDE:Unstable:* projects still use DSA1024 as algorithm and need to be recreated using RSA4096. This means that if you use e.g. KDE:Qt5, KDE:Frameworks5, KDE:Applications or KDE:Unstable:Qt, KDE:Unstable:Frameworks, KDE:Unstable:Applications, KDE:Unstable:Extra, you will have to accept the new sign keys. Due to the design of OBS we can't provide the fingerprints in advance. After the switch, they will be visible on these pages: https://build.opensuse.org/project/keys_and_certificates/KDE https://build.opensuse.org/project/keys_and_certificates/KDE:Unstable When zypper asks whether you trust the new keys, you can compare the fingerprints with the ones on those pages. Only import the keys if they compare equal. Upstream Plasma is moving towards Qt 6 in the master branch [1] and thus a large disruption is expected for some time. We have switched Plasma 5 packages in KDE:Unstable:Frameworks to build the Plasma/5.27 branch. Users of this repo will see downgrades of those packages which also means that some smaller features which were only present in the master branch will disappear. Once ready, KDE Frameworks 6 and Plasma 6 packages will be delivered by this repo next to the existing Qt 5 based versions. KDE:Unstable:Applications is not affected for the time being, those still track the master branch.

plasma-discover: Setting a different language (locales) as default de_DE
by Sedat Dilek 14 Jan '23

14 Jan '23

Happy new 2023 Debian and openSUSE KDE teams, This issue is about plasma-discover and locale/language settings and hope this is not Debian-specific. I fixed up my plasma-discover and it starts now, again on Debian/unstable AMD64 with KDE/Plasma version 5.26.5 and fetches updates. Normally, I do not use plasma-discover for upgrading packages but it's nice to have graphical frontend to check what is available. All my swcatalog caches (Debian DEP-11 metadata) were updated via: root# appstreamcli refresh --force root# LC_ALL=en_EN LANG=en_EN appstreamcli refresh --force Now I see: root# LC_ALL=C ll /var/cache/swcatalog/cache/ total 21M drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Jan 14 10:59 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4.0K Feb 25 2022 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.3M Jan 14 03:25 de_DE-local-metainfo.xb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9.7M Jan 14 10:59 de_DE-os-catalog.xb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 998K Jan 14 10:13 en_EN-local-metainfo.xb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8.8M Jan 14 10:13 en_EN-os-catalog.xb (Re)Moved all user's appstream + discover caches before: user$ mv ~/.cache/appstream ~/.cache/appstream.old user$ mv ~/.cache/discover ~/.cache/discover.old Renewed APT packages repository via: root# apt-get update As you can see I have both de_DE and en_EN swcatalogs.

Desktop Cube
by Robin Klitscher 02 Dec '22

02 Dec '22

It seems that the KDE folk upstream have made available a replacement for the desktop cube effect. I'm told it's at https://github.com/zzag/kwin-effects-cube.git, but building it for openSUSE is beyond my skills. Is there any chance that it might be packaged and distributed for Leap and Tumbleweed as an add-on?? -- Robin K Wellington "Harbour City" New Zealand

startkde: Could not start kdeinit5. Check your installation.
by Marc Chamberlin 27 Jun '22

27 Jun '22

Hi -I am running OpenSuSE Leap 15.3 x64 on one of my systems, and it is failing to start the desktop at the end of booting up. All I get is an XMessage box on a black screen with the error message "startkde: Could not start kdeinit5. Check your installation." Looking in the messages log file I see this message - messages:2022-06-04T13:45:32.942306-07:00 nova startplasma-x11[2747]: "/usr/lib64/libexec/kf5/start_kdeinit_wrapper" ("--kded", "+kcminit_startup") exited with code 127 I don't grok this message and Google shows lots of old complaints about this problem but nothing current or seemingly relevant. Can some kind guru(s) help me to get this poor computer run and show my KDE desktop? I did use zypper up to make sure my computer has all the latest updates, but that gave no joy solving this problem.

Gmail and "less secure apps"/KMail
by Martin 28 May '22

28 May '22

Hey I assume I'm not the only one here with a Gmail account set up in KMail/ Kontact. I wonder what you all have done with this problem of Google blocking "less secure apps" on Monday May 30 2022? I'm currently using POP3 access with "plain" authentication and SSL/TLS. But I expect to be blocked from reading/sending e-mail with KMail in a couple of days. From what I can find online I only seem to have two options. 1) Switch to IMAP and use OAuth login. I'm a bit nervous about this as don't have any experience with OAuth, and I have about 70k e-mails in my Gmail account, and I'm not sure how well Akonadi handles syncing that amount of e-mails these days - especially with all the funky IMAP folders that Gmail has. 2) Continue to use POP3 with an "app specific password" and two-factor authentification. This sounds like a total nightmare - even if I only have KMail configured to check new mail every 30 minutes :-) Anybody got any advice as to a good way to go? I'm contemplating taking this opportunity to find a different mail provider also. And at the very least I probably won't make any big decisions or moves until I've installed 15.4.

Wayland and multi-monitor handling
by auxsvr 23 Dec '21

23 Dec '21

Hello, Using latest Plasma on Wayland (oS tumbleweed), if I switch to the linux console, then back to Wayland, only the mouse pointer appears on either monitor. Also, it seems that the position of the monitors as configured in Wayland becomes incorrect, as the mouse pointer does not move from one monitor to another, as it should. All programs in the Wayland session remain running normally and I have to use: loginctl kill-session to kill them and start sddm. Is this a known issue? -- Merry Christmas, Peter

[opensuse-kde] [tumbleweed] kde/plasma/wayland: Primary Selection Protocol (middle-mouse to paste)
by Sedat Dilek 27 Sep '21

27 Sep '21

Hi, after I tried KDE/Plasma/Wayland on Debian/testing AMD64 I inspired my colleague Joop Boonen to test it on OpenSuse/tumbleweed. Everything was fine besides Primary Selection (middle-mouse to paste), so I stopped using Plasma/Wayland. Joop is able to use primary selection in every application (KDE or GTK). So, I was surprised. Here on KDE/Plasma 5.12.5 I cannot do that (for example cut-n-paste in konsole via middle-mouse paste into firefox). I asked on the wayland-devel ML [1] with no answer. The retired KWin maintainer wanted to have this feature in wayland-protocols before implementing it in KWin/Plasma/Wayland. So, what magic did you do in OpenSuse? The Gnome-way? [1] has references on how Gnome did it in mutter. Or can you point me to the relevant packages with name (sources and patches)? Thanks in advance.

We're here to contribute
by Attila Pinter 14 Jul '21

14 Jul '21

Dear openSUSE KDE Team, The past few weeks a few of us Plasma lovers came together and decided that instead of just talking, filing bug reports and making requests we would like to take part of the way Plasma is creted and shipped for the rest of the project. In this we turn to you and offer our help where it is needed. We're happy and eager to learn and help out. I assembled a "short" list of volunteers who would be interested in helping out in the project: Adrien: A Haskell and Python fanboy with great coordination skills, contributor at the openSUSE docs project, helping out the news and communities, close to get his PhD. Andi: 32 years old, coming from Gießen (Hessen,Germany). Using Linux over 5 years - Fedora user; Fedora contributor; Silverblue, openSUSE TW/MicroOS "enthusiast"; Hacking skills: Python, Java, C, C++. Andres: An electrical engineer student, knows a few things about specfiles and how the KDE team manages the releases, currently digging through the release scripts at https://github.com/openSUSE/KDEteam. Jens: Has a small bio on his wikipage: https://en.opensuse.org/User:KaratekHD. "I don't really know what I want to learn from this, but I'll definitely learn something useful and I just want to work on openSUSE KDE, since the two open source projects I enjoy the most are openSUSE and KDE." Onuralp: Working as a Mechatronic Engineer also working as Fedora Mindshare Council Member, Fedora KDE Sig Member, Fedora packager. Has experience wit Qt, QML, cpp, and started opencv/AI education. Fedora user in the past ~10 years. Lastly, myself: "DevOps" engineer, small business owner with some Python knowledge, openSUSE docs contributor, with some experience in packaging for other distros, fast learner, openSUSE and Plasma lover, FOSS enthusiast in the past 18 years. To help our efforts and maybe an easier way of getting to know each other I would suggest maybe a video call on meet.opensuse.org. We know that you're very busy, so this bit is optional, but we found that communication moves things faster. Either way feel free to point us to a direction where we can get in touch, what is it that we need or recommended to learn and see where and how we can work together. Br, A.

Kdenlive needs MLT 7 package
by Julius Künzel 08 Jun '21

08 Jun '21

Hi everybody! MLT 7 has been released about two weeks ago (https://github.com/mltframework/ mlt/releases/tag/v7.0.0). MLT is Kdenlive's mediabackend and one of the main dependencies. We want to port Kdenlive from MLT 6 to MLT 7 for version 21.08. However our GitLab pipeline is based on openSUSE Tumbleweed (https:// invent.kde.org/sysadmin/ci-tooling/-/blob/master/system-images/suse-qt515/ Dockerfile) and we are now waiting for openSUSE to release MLT 7. Do you have any plans when this will happen so we can arrange our schedule after it? The packages we need for the pipeline are (with MLT 6): libmlt-devel libmlt++-devel libmlt6-modules libmlt6-data Cheers, Julius Künzel from the Kdenlive dev team

[TW] SDDM gobbling CPU makes it difficult to login; turning off autologin broke greeter
by Felix Miata 06 Jun '21

06 Jun '21

On Core2Duo host p5bse I just did an otherwise successful dup to 20210604 on one of my rare installations that includes SDDM. Response to mouse and keyboard at sddm greeter is minimal, very highly delayed, if any response at all. Watching top in remote login shows SDDM using CPU varying between 25% and 89% or more. I did manage to login, but it takes considerable time to do. Switching themes didn't help. Am I alone in this? Attachment is grep of sddm from journalctl -b. Trying to switch back and forth between autologin or not, as when trying to disable autologin to enable a troubleshooting a broken X[1], is proving very difficult. It seems once autologin has been enabled, SDDM remembers even after editing /etc/sddm.conf.d/ to remove the autologin username from the User= line, and restarting xdm with systemctl more than once. I gave up and rebooted to try to get back to no autologin mode. The result of that initially was a black screen instead of a greeter, and sddm not showing in top. I got the greeter back, but it's still unresponsive and using excessive CPU.

I wish first instance of opening Konsole for any and every new user for each and every Konsole profile to be black on white. How/where can this be implemented?

Amarok 2.9.71 Alpha
by Vojtěch Zeisek 24 Feb '21

24 Feb '21

Hi, there is recent new Amarok release https://amarok.kde.org/en/node/890 (Feb. 3) while we have Git tag 89d13c15 (Dec. 22). The 2.9.71 is rather technical preview, but possibly interesting for testing at least on TW. What do You think? Is it worth of upgrade (there is no package in OBS)? -- Vojtěch Zeisek https://trapa.cz/ Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux https://www.opensuse.org/

Telemetry is *off* by default. Yes, I know. But not only me don't trust this fully (that's the main consensus of the discussion in the linked article) and prefer to deinstall this package, to be on the save side. So there was the bad experience with canonical and others in the past. Telemetrie data in any direction are absolutely unacceptable for OSS and free SW!!

[opensuse-kde] KDE Okular: Annotations don't show all non-ASCII letters
by opensuse.lietuviu.kalba 07 Nov '20

07 Nov '20

Hi, KDE Okular PDF viewer suffers from buggy poppler [1] leading to skipped non-ASCII letters in PDF annotations [2]. This bug exist almost for a decade, has many duplicates, and seems not be to trivial. Although is not so critical, however it is highly annoying while using KDE (and openSUSE) as software in office affairs. Could we consolidate / prioritize our efforts to fix this bug or to hire some one to work with it? It would be nice if openSUSE or even SUSE could take responsibility while finding a solution.

Hello, Please note: openSUSE Leap 15.1 support will end in two months [1]. If you didn't upgrade yet, now is a good time to start thinking about it. As mentioned in the Leap 15.2 release notes, KDE4 is not supported anymore [2]. When we remove the Leap 15.1 KDE repositories, some KDE4 packages that are only built for openSUSE Leap 15.1 will be removed from KDE:Extra. (a lot of dead plasmoids, a couple icon themes and obsolete applications). Another reminder will be sent in one month.

[opensuse-kde] Lost settings after Plasma update to 20.08.2
by Vojtěch Zeisek 14 Oct '20

14 Oct '20

Hi, after update to snapshot 20201012 with Plasma 20.08.2 I was experiencing plenty of graphical flickering in nearly every application. This was solved by switch from OpenGL to XRender in KDE Control Center. I just wonder why did it happen. I had been using OpenGL for a while without any issue. Another issue I noticed was that I lost settings of the text editor part (Kwrite, Kate, ...), it was reverted do the (new) default state. I had to again set dark style and some more settings. Also I was surprised that I had to do the settings in every application using he KDE text component, namely Kwrite, Kate, Kile and RKWard. It used to work that I changed the editor (menu Setting | Editor settings) that I changed the settings on one place and it was applied in all applications using the editor component. I managed it, but things like that should not happen... ;) V. -- Vojtěch Zeisek https://trapa.cz/ Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux https://www.opensuse.org/

[opensuse-kde] menu items missing in new 15.2 plasma session
by Felix Miata 06 Oct '20

06 Oct '20

To an up to date 15.2 installation, originally an upgrade from 15.1, with only TDE/TDM and IceWM installed for graphical environment, I ran: zypper in plasma5-session plasma5-workspace plasma5-theme-oxygen This pulled in just short of 100 new packages total, including systemsetting5, plasma5-framework, plasma5-desktop, konsole & spectacle. The session is functional, but "Application Menu" is very scant, missing all the TDE apps, and very conspicuously absent, "System Settings". I have to adjust everything except panel and desktop via systemsettings5 from Konsole or Xterm cmdline or Alt-F2. "System Settings" is present in "Application Launcher". Any ideas how to get TDE's apps and "System Settings" into "Application Menu"? -- Evolution as taught in public schools, like religion, is based on faith, not on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.

[opensuse-kde] No mouse navigation between KMail folders
by Axel Dessecker 04 Aug '20

04 Aug '20

Hi, One of my computers has a strange problem. In KMail (5.10.3; Leap 15.1) it is impossible to switch mail folders using a mouse. It is possible to focus an already selected folder and the right mouse button context menu also pops up. But navigating between folders only works using the J shortcut on the keyboard. I don't think this is a feature as it doesn't appear on another machine with a rather identical system. Should this be an inadequate list, please tell me.

[opensuse-kde] KDE file dialogs in Thunderbird and Firefox
by Tom 23 Jul '20

23 Jul '20

Hi all, it seems like Thunderbird and Firefox use GTK dialogs for opening and saving files by default. To make them use native KDE dialogs the environment variable GTK_USE_PORTAL must be set to 1. One way to do that is to edit the .desktop files for the applications [1]. Alternatively, the line export GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 can be added in ~/.profile or even globally under /etc/profile.d/. Would it make sense to add the global export in a package (e.g., a branding package)? This should make Firefox and Thunderbird use the KDE file dialogs by default for most users. Or would that have any unwanted side effects?

[opensuse-kde] Survey on changes of Plasma defaults: XWayland, xf86-input-synaptics
by Fabian Vogt 09 Jul '20

09 Jul '20

Hi, we are considering a few changes in the defaults offered by the KDE Plasma and related packages. If you have a touchpad or use any of the Plasma Wayland sessions, they will likely have an impact on your workflow, so we'd like to hear your feedback before committing to anything. Let us know! Offer only "Full Wayland" instead of both "Xwayland" / "Full Wayland" sessions ---------- To ease the transition into a Plasma Wayland session, it's configured that Qt and GTK applications prefer XCB over native Wayland: in other words, Xwayland is used for most applications instead of the native Wayland client implementations. This is what the "Plasma (Wayland)" session does, which is referred to here as "Xwayland" session for clarity. This means that some benefits of Wayland, like isolation of clients and support for per-monitor scaling (mixed-DPI setups), are missing. To mitigate that, there is a second session, called "Full Wayland", which forces both Qt and GTK applications to use their native Wayland client implementation again. Now there is a discussion upstream where it was requested that this split and GTK/Qt behaviour difference compared to other distros should be dropped: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/85 The arguments here are that this is not appropriate for developers and that most of the issues worked around by the Xwayland session are fixed meanwhile. So far we have read about both sides, some which wouldn't be able to use the Plasma Wayland session without the Xwayland setup and some which have a better experience with the "Full Wayland" session. Arguments pro Full Wayland: - Scaling works properly (including per-output scaling) - More consistent application behaviour (assuming that they can speak wayland natively) - More isolation between applications - ...? Arguments pro Xwayland: - Upstream, Qt does not consider qtwayland to be a good default in GNOME sessions due to various compatibility issues and so it explicitly uses the fallback to XCB there (https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-68619). - It avoids certain incompatibilities like with Yakuake and stability issues, like with KMail (and other users of WebEngine) - ...? I'd argue that developers are able to switch to the "Full Wayland" kind of session themselves. If the "Full Wayland" session is perfectly usable by those who use the "Xwayland" session currently, there's no reason to keep this split anymore though. Otherwise, please tell us what makes the "Full Wayland" session a worse experience. Note that this won't touch the Xorg session at all: it'll stay the default for the at least near future. Don't recommend xf86-input-synaptics by default ---------- There are two main X11 drivers for touchpads: xf86-input-synaptics and xf86-input-libinput. Synaptics is practically dead upstream while libinput is the de-facto replacement, also for tablets. Currently, if plasma5-desktop is installed, xf86-input-synaptics is automatically pulled in as well. It takes precedence over the libinput driver. While it's a simple step to remove the package and thus let libinput take over, the question is whether this should be the default state. Pro synaptics: - More configuration options - Some say it works better for them - ...? Pro libinput: - Maintained upstream - Some say it works better for them - Used by wayland compositors, so a more consistent experience - Better handling of some hardware configurations (e.g. Thinkpad trackpoints) - ...?

No matter what I select, all I get is the login screen, and there I have to click on reboot or shutdown to actually have it happen. Now here's the evil bit: I have TWO computers, both running openSUSE Leap 15.1 with Plasma from the OBS repos (Qt5, Frameworks5, Appplications, Extras). Both Systems are running exactly the same package versions (I've sent "rpm -qa --queryformat=%{NAME}-%{VERSION}\n"|sort -V into a file and kompared line by line with diff), and on one of the two shutdown&reboot works as excpected, on the other it does not. The only difference that I know of is the fact that on one of the computers I am logging in with a local user account, and that's where shutdown&reboot works; on the other I'm using a network user via NIS, with $home via NFS+autofs, and there shutdown&reboot does not work anymore, but it used to work until the current Plasma Beta rolled in. I can't find anything in what little there is in sddm config files - anyone here got any ideas?

[opensuse-kde] proxy errors from updater applet

12 May '20

Hi, every time I log in on my laptop I get this error from the updater applet: "Download (curl) error for 'http://eregion.kicks-ass.net/eregion/13.1/ repodata/repomd.xml': Error code: Connection failed Error message: Could not resolve proxy: HTTP_PROXY" But: use of a proxy is turned OFF both in yast2 and in my user's settings. To fix it I have to go to system settings, turn proxy on, click accept, turn proxy off, click accept, and log out. Then, it'll be fine until the next reboot.

[opensuse-kde] How to create translation package ?

Hi, I'd like to ensure to also create a liquidshell-lang package including the translation which is managed by the KDE translation team and can be found at https://websvn.kde.org/trunk/l10n-kf5/de/messages/extragear-base/ However I have no idea what is needed in the spec file for this. https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/home:martinkoller/liquidshell/… I found another project similar to mine https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/home:wolfi323:KDE:Extra/mangon… however just adding the bits they have for lang related stuff does not do the trick.

[opensuse-kde] Highlight of source code in Markdown document
by Vojtěch Zeisek 14 Mar '20

14 Mar '20

Hi, if I write document.md in Kate and I type something like ```shell while read L; do mv HybPiper."$L".[eo]* "$L"/; done < samples_list.txt ``` or ```R install.packages(pkgs=c("ape", "ggplot", "gplots", "heatmap.plus", "ips", "reshape"), lib="rpackages", repos="https://mirrors.nic.cz/R/", dependencies="Imports") ``` Kate nicely shows syntax highlight for selected language (BTW, much better than in Notepad++ or Geany:-). When I click on the document.md in Dolphin, it's opened in Okular. It generally renders well, but for the above source code blocks it doesn't show any source code highlight, just monospace font. I wonder if there is any way how to make Okular to display highlighted source code, if I should open it in something else, or if there is some more universal way how to get source code highlight in Markdown document. I also wonder if Okular could display navigation created form headlines (lines starting by one or more #) as e.g. Geany does this automatically.

[opensuse-kde] KMail doesn't see local folders
by Vojtěch Zeisek 14 Mar '20

14 Mar '20

Hi, after I replaced disk, reinstalled everything etc. I recreated all Akonadi resources. This was fast and smooth apart of one think. I had bunch of expiry rules on my main IMAP account to download (move) old e-mails into local Maildir. I set KMail local folders to point to /home/vojta/.local/share/local- mail/ The settings dialog says it's valid Maildir folder. It has 14 GB. Everything seems to be correct, but KMail doesn't see the folders. Clearing Akonadi cache and trying to restart it etc. didn't help. Any idea how to make KMail reading valid Maildir folder?

[opensuse-kde] email about polish translations
by ddemaio 10 Mar '20

10 Mar '20

Hi all, There was an email that came in from an anonymous source with the following statement. Any chance there is some truth to what is said and possibility to change it if there is some truth to it. I would think this is more of a prank as I'm sure there are enough checks and balances on KDE translations. Anyway, ccing Wolfgang as this package would have to be part of Package Hub and would have come from the community package. v/r Doug It came to our attention that KDE Polish "translation" has been sabotaged. Not only it looks unprofessional, but also it looks like someone is ridiculing Poles via these "traslations". It has been pointed out that one person hired by KDE has exclusive rights and Polish KDE community is completely excluded. German hiring a person to ridicule Poles via sabotaging and ridiculing Polish language is unacceptable. Taking into account German behavior toward Poles (Untermenschen) from the past (1939-1945) and gruesome murder of 6 millions of Poles by Germans in their death camps, it is unacceptable that one person hired by KDE is ridiculing Poles via making fun of Polish language, despite a strong opposition from Polish KDE community against such a racist behavior. We hope that Suse is strong enough to take a stand and will not stand by, by continuing providing these ridiculous "traslations". -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Bluetooth connection failure
by Marc Chamberlin 06 Mar '20

06 Mar '20

Hello - I am running OpenSuSE Leap 15.0 with version 5.12.5 of the Bluetooth applet on my ASUS laptop. I am trying to make a Bluetooth connection to a gadget I have (a TinyTrack4 with the Bluetooth adapter) and it is not succeeding. I have no problems with making a Bluetooth connection to my Android phone so I don't think I have done anything wrong in setting up this Bluetooth device and indeed the Bluetooth applet shows the TinyTrack4 as an available device I can connect to. But when I try to connect, it appears that I get a momentary successful connection but then it almost immediately disconnects. The messages log file shows the following error message - 2020-03-05T19:50:15.949381-08:00 marcslaptop plasmashell[2455]: org.kde.bluez: PendingCall Error: "In Progress" I have no idea what that means and Google was of no help either... And FWIW when I dual boot my laptop over to Windows 10, I have no problems connecting to my TinyTrack4 with the Bluetooth connection. So any and all help will be much appreciated, and thanks in advance... I hope some kind guru can guide me and my laptop to a joyful Bluetooth union with my TinyTrak4 gizmo...

[opensuse-kde] Plasma Widgets and Background suddenly missing
by ASSI 25 Feb '20

25 Feb '20

As the subject says, my widgets are suddenly missing and the background settings as well (keeping the greeter wallpaper instead). I didn't do an update (as none was available) in between two functional and two degraded boots. Does anyone have an idea of what might be going on? It's easy enough to reset the background from wallpaper to solid color, but I don't really look forward to re-create all widgets and position them the way I had them before.

With the new Plasma the Digital Clock apparently got changed to show the desktop widget without the widget background and invert the font color from black to white instead with a tiny shadow drawn around it.

[opensuse-kde] extremely weird font behaviour with plasma / KDE from KDE: buildservice repos
by Mathias Homann 11 Jan '20

11 Jan '20

Hi, let me show you two screenshots: https://gyazo.com/f204d96be954a6f8b522947736bfd0b7 https://gyazo.com/0bae79574db7bccf4620557966ceab51 The first shows my font settings in KDE / Plasma: pretty straighforward, everything is set to Segoe UI 12 Pt, except fixed width which is Consolas 12Pt. The second one is where it gets funny: it shows part of my desktop and three application windows. Observe how my desktop, and one of the apps, actually uses the font settings from my control center, but the other two apps dont! The app that does was built in my own OBS repo, the two apps that don't are from KDE:Frameworks5. Any ideas how to fix that? My guess is that somehow Frameworks5 or even Qt5 uses a different, possibly broken, libfreetype, to build, but it is not published.

Follow the usual pattern and rename the package to eric-qt5, while keeping the package "eric" at 19.9 or forget about qt4 completely (which might create issues with some Leap's, IIRC)?

[opensuse-kde] KDE4 & Qt4 removal notice
by Christophe Giboudeaux 04 Nov '19

04 Nov '19

Hello, As announced months ago, KDE4 and Qt4 are not supported anymore. All the issues we encountered were addressed and I submitted delete requests for the remaining packages in openSUSE Tumbleweed. This will not affect the Leap 15.0 and 15.1 users. For Leap 15.2 the goal is to drop Qt 4 as well.

[opensuse-kde] Re: [opensuse-factory] snapshot 20190909: Change in kmail mail list keyboard navigation behavior
by Hans-Peter Jansen 14 Sep '19

14 Sep '19

[Sorry for cross post] Hi, after the usual upgrade and reboot today, I noticed a significant kmail list keyboard navigation behavioral change: usually, one could navigate through the list of mails with cursor keys (given, the list has focus, of course). Collapsed groups could be opened with cursor right, and cursor left on the top level entry could close open groups. Now, cursor left and right step through the displayed mails, but don't open/collapse mail threads anymore. Up and down always scrolls the mail body (if no fully displayed). Also, I'm pretty sure, that keyboard navigation was possible in the mailbox hierarchy display. Now keyboard navigation ignores the focused item completely. Is that to be expected? If, yes, what's the rationale? Keyboard navigation of Qt5 lists is a pretty established usability pattern, that should be kept in all cases (principle of least astonishment)... Last, but not least, the changelog seems not to mention such a change. > ==== kmail ==== > Version update (19.08.0 -> 19.08.1) > Subpackages: kmail-application-icons kmail-lang ktnef > > - Update to 19.08.1 > > * New bugfix release > * For more details please see: > * https://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-applications-19.08.1.php > > - Changes since 19.08.0: > * Fix Bug 409662 - Missing "Save Attachments..." from Multiple Emails > (kde#409662) * Fix using correct parent widget.

[opensuse-kde] plasma5-addons-comics package
by Hans-Peter Jansen 12 Sep '19

12 Sep '19

Hi, you might already noticed, many Plasma 5 comic providers are failing by now. Therefor, I created a package home:frispete:Tumbleweed/plasma5-addons-comics that contains fixed versions of xkcd and shithappens, and a new one, perscheid. I sent the fixes to the author, but don't know, if he's still interested in this stuff. Feedback appreciated.

[opensuse-kde] KDE Network Manager doesn't allow editing of a Bluetooth dun connection
by gumb 03 Sep '19

03 Sep '19

Leap 15.1 The other day I had the need to connect to the Internet via my mobile, so having torn my hair out for a good twenty minutes trying and failing to create a mobile broadband connection via USB, I changed tack and looked in the Bluetooth settings. There I was able to configure a dun connection by selecting my country/operator, and it worked. However, now on every boot/resume it tries to autoconnect to this bluetooth network. I reviewed the settings in KDE Network Connections, changed the priority to -1, unchecked 'Automatically connect to this network when it is available', but it's not possible to save these settings, neither with the Apply, OK buttons nor by selecting another network and hoping to be prompted, as happens on any other connection I change. The Apply button remains greyed out no matter what changes I make to the bluetooth connection. My only choice hence is to completely delete the connection and to have to recreate it every time I might need it, because on my free mobile contract I only get 50mb of data per month, the rest is charged out-of-contract. I can't risk being unknowingly connected and running up a huge bill! I assume this is a bug but should it go upstream? Can anybody reproduce it? gumb -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

That's not hardcoded, that's from the printer's PPD, as Carlos wrote. You can observe that by switching to a different printer, it has different margins set.

This is a spinoff from a kde3 list post: https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-kde3/2019-05/msg00025.html Host 20190521 Font sizes matches matches Control Center Icons no no SW_Single Tabs View 1 1 Search 2 2 Installation Summary 3 3 Patterns 4 none Package Groups 5 none Looks like tab count depends on some optional package, but which? I compared yui* & yast2-* of the two Plasmas above listed without finding anything different. In 42.3 there were 7 tabs, including one for Repositories and one for RPM Groups. Are others lacking Control Center icons? https://lists.opensuse.org/yast-devel/2019-05/msg00022.html I have both yast2-theme and yast2-theme-oxygen installed, but get this error: ys2controlcenter: No icon /usr/share/YaST2/theme/current/icons/32x32/apps/yast.png -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.
