[opensuse] WiFi and KDE4 - systray icon
by C 01 May '10

01 May '10

I recently tried out the latest PCLinuxOS release, and noticed something... in their KDE4 build, the systray icon for the WiFi is the familiar graduated bargraph style... it's very readable, easy to see signal strength on etc. Back to the openSUSE KDE4 builds, and we've got that useless circle thing that's basically unusable as a visual reference to see WiFi signal strength etc... it's just a white and blue circle... and the microscopic signal strength bar on the right is... well.. microscopic. What's the trick to enable or use a more "normal" and readable WiFi systray icon in KDE4/KNetworkManager? I've been poking Google and various forums, but haven't turned up anything useful yet.

[opensuse] opensource authoring tool

Hi all, This is maybe out of topics but I want to ask if someone here uses open source authoring tools and can share the experience. My friend use CourseLab (which is free but not open source) to produce SCORM content for LMS. It has very good function but only run on Windows. Is there any Linux based alternatives to it? Any thought really appreciated. regards, -- medwinz ======================= http://medwinz.blogsome.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

Fwd: [opensuse] WiFi and KDE4 - systray icon

My first thought would be to find out the name of te package that gives the bar graph. Find te source code for it and build it on opensuse. Linux code in PCLinuxOS should be able to be used in any other distro.

[opensuse] Thunderbird config and content file: openSUSE vs Ubuntu
by Boris Epstein 01 May '10

01 May '10

Hi all, It appears that while under openSUSE the Thunderbird's files go into $HOME/.thunderbird in Ubuntu the are stored in $HOME/.mozilla-thunderbird . Not only that but the content appears somehow different - linking or copying content to the correct folder does not work. So, does anybody have any idea what all of this is about? What I am trying to accomplish is manage things in such a way as to allow users to use Thunderbird the same way whether they log into their account from a SUSE machine or an Ubuntu one. Thanks in advance for any insight into this mess. Boris. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
