This did not make any change, the icons (lower parts) still get cut.

Look at the text underneath the toolbar icons - the upper part of the text under all the toolbar icons is cut-off - this happens for all apps run in KDE 4.2.1, even KDE 3.5 applications, such as Gwenview/KDE3. I don't think I will be able to do any better than this, image-hosting/editing-wise. And so, will just give up at this point, if there is no forthcoming solution. I can live with the slight cutting-off of the Toolbar icon text in KDE 4.2.1. Maybe it will be resolved in KDE 4.2.2 / 4.3. > Not sure how they are "cut-off" since I can't really tell from the > JPEG images.

Anyway, these 2 new ones are png and with a higher res of 1024 X 768.

< Solved (partly) > .... (Sorry for the top-post) In Personal Settings > Appearance > Style (2nd Tab) > Fine Tuning : Selected 'Text alongside Icons' (instead of 'Text under icons') . This solved the top of icon text being cut-off. However, it reverts to cut-off text if 'Text under icons' is opted for. (Images [5] & [6] below show proper icons & text on toolbar) Thanks, Jay [5] http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/6421/kde421dolphintoolbarico.png [6] http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/9302/kde421gwenviewtoolbaric.png -- 2009/3/31 Anne Wilson <cannewilson(a)googlemail.com>: > On Tuesday 31 March 2009 06:43:25 Jay Mistry wrote: > >> I use a 17" (widescreen) Monitor (LG 177WSB) set at it's native > >> resolution of 1440 X 900. > >> > >> And the nVidia Driver (180.29) for the nVidia GeForce 8400GS Graphics > >> Card is 180.29 > >> linux__:~ # rpm -qa | grep -i nvidia > >> x11-video-nvidiaG02-180.29-0.1 > >> nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-pae-180.29_2.6.27.18_0.3-0.1 > >> nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-default-180.29_2.6.27.18_0.3-0.1 > >> > >> > One last shot, perhaps the display size in xorg.conf is incorrect??? > >> > >> I don't think there's any problem with xorg.conf, since the display > >> in KDE 3.5 and XFCE is fine. > > That doesn't necessarily follow.

I have checked the two svn version and found the missing update that is causing the build errors for kdebindings. I have create a small patch for the 945504 snapshot and successfully build the packages. I have submitted the patch to the KDE:KDE4:UNSTABLE:Desktop repository (submitreq no 8561).

[opensuse-kde] KDE4 Unstable Package update submitted
by Raymond Wooninck 30 Mar '09

30 Mar '09

I have submitted just a few minutes ago an update request for the kdebindings4, python-kde4 and ruby-kde4 packages from the KDE4:UNSTABLE:Desktop repository. These changes will solve the build errors that occurred last weekend with the update to the 945504 snapshot. The above packages will now be based on the 946564 snapshot. Another change is that ruby-kde4 requires now the libsmokenepomuk.so and I have enabled this in the kdebindings4 and ruby-kde4 packages.
