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.

[kde] global Konsole colors configuration goes where?
by Felix Miata 22 May '21

22 May '21

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? The reason is that switching profiles from white on black to black on white from a running Konsole only randomly wants to persist. It's been like this for years, maybe since the inception of v5. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.

Anyone know if it's possible or what it takes to replace the useless microscopic orientation icons with something that perceptibly indicates display rotation in systemsettings > display configuration? -- Evolution as taught in public schools, like religion, is based on faith, not on science.

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/

Hi On my 3 logins on this machine, I use the Application Menu. On two of them I just have the Logout shortcut on the bottom left but on the 3rd one, i have Logout, Reboot and Shutdown. How do i configure these options to be on/off the menu as the "Configure Application Menu" does not allow any possibility? regards Ian -- opensuse:tumbleweed:20210130 Qt: 5.15.2 KDE Frameworks: 5.78.0 - KDE Plasma: 5.20.5 - kwin 5.20.5 kmail2 5.16.1 (20.12.0) - akonadiserver 5.16.1 (20.12.0) - Kernel: 5.10.9-1-default - xf86-video-nouveau: 1.0.16

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!!
