by Benjamin 25 Jan '16

Hi! I am searching for a workaround or help to solve the following problem: When i use a different screen or let us say better, a different resolution all my plasmoids are mixed up on the desktop. I just have to change the resolution and everything is a mess. I have already posted a bug in kde and opened a thread in the forum , but no one seems to have this problem…Any issue about this? https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/512696-Plasmaoids-disturbed-afte… Thanks, Benjamin. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] can't get rid of desktop folder panel in plasma5
by tech＠reachthetribes.org 24 Jan '16

24 Jan '16

You know that default desktop folder panel that is on the desktop on a new KDE setup? Well, I can't get rid of mine. There is not "close" option when hovering the mouse over it. The problem is I just spent quite a bit of time setting up my desktop with panels, colors, themes, etc. So I don't want to get rid of my other settings, just this desktop folder panel. Anyone know how to get rid of it? -- George Box #1: 42.1 | KDE Plasma 5 | AMD Phenom IIX4 | 64 | 32GB Box #2: 13.1 | KDE 4.12 | AMD Athlon X3 | 64 | 4GB Laptop #1: 13.1 | KDE 4.12 | Core i7-2620M | 64 | 8GB Laptop #2: 42.1 | KDE Plasma 5 | Core i7-4710HQ | 64 | 16GB -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

Please let me know the bug number once you filed it to bugs KDE (https://bugs.kde.org/) so I can bring my support to it. Regards. P.S. I would exactly post these observations (with some 404 links).

[opensuse] digikam crashes
by don fisher 24 Jan '16

24 Jan '16

The system I used before my fatal upgrade ran digikam. Now I receive a signal: Segmentation fault when it is run. It says it is using /lib64/libthread_db.so.1, and the current thread is 1. If I examine the dependencies for digikam in Yast2, it shows libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit) Could this be the problem, or is there more info somewhere else? The last entry in the dump for thread 1 is: Thread 1 (Thread 0x7f145f4a7880 (LWP 3562)): [KCrash Handler] #5 0x00007f1457fb406c in __strcmp_ssse3 () at /lib64/libc.so.6 I did a search for libthread under Yast2, with the contains switch, and is says there are no results. But the same Yast2 code lists libthread_db as a dependency. Comments welcome.

[opensuse] Tumbleweed: X Consuming Huge Amounts of Memory
by SDM 24 Jan '16

24 Jan '16

On my desktop PC, X easily consumes over 3 GB of memory within 16 hours of use and will continue crawling over the 4 GB mark. It will eventually make my system run out of memory unless I log out of and back in KDE every 1-3 days. I open and close a lot of windows (Dolphin, FF, and more), and this makes X incrementally increase its memory footprint. When I close Windows, the memory never drops back down; it just goes in one direction and that is up. Is anyone else experiencing this under TW? I'm using the radeon open source driver on a "01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Juniper PRO [Radeon HD 6750]" card. I did some tests with running Leap on a different HDD and the same PC, and this doesn't happen. This problem also didn't used to happen on TW but was introduced with a Plasma 5 update some weeks ago. I've asked around a bit through some other channels and nobody is familiar with this so I'm trying here. Any suggestions on how I can find out what the culprit is for the leak (I think it may be KDE related, not X itself)? I would file a bug report but don't know if X is the culprit, or if it's plasmashell or something else.

[opensuse] Installation DVD is horrible!
by don fisher 24 Jan '16

24 Jan '16

I have been trying to build a bootable USB drive on my 13.2 system. I plug in the USB drive, BOOT the installation DVD and select installation. I get to where it shows the devices, and select the Create Partition .. and choose the USB drive. I then have to go to Expert Partitioner to set up swap, /, and home partitions. But even after doing all that, when I start the build the damn thing first formats the USB swap partition, and then mounts a swap partition from another drive, so my fstab is corrupted. Why does it refuse to honour my request to use the USB drive? Is there a trick I am missing? The USB drive already had valid partitions on it when I started. I told the system I wanted to use all three, by checking them in the usage menu. But it then reformatted the disk, removing the existing swap and making the first partition /. It was intending to use the same swap it attached above. I do not think this should not be this hard. Why is swap so hard to deal with?
