[opensuse-kde] KDE4.6.2 (on 11.4) Kmenu names not showing
by C 17 Mar '12

17 Mar '12

I've been poking at this one for a little while now without much success. Using openSUSE 11.4 and KDE 4.6.2. I've got a few applications - the games from HumbleBundle 2 - that have been added to the KMenu by their installers. When I navigate to the applications in the KMenu, the icons are showing, but there is no text next to the icons (Application name field is empty). A mouse hover shows the app names in grey text in the Description field. If I go to the KMenu editor and check the entries, they are filled in correctly - there is a name in the Name field, and the Description fields are all blank. If I add text to the Description field, save and exit the editor, the new Descriptions I've added are not shown on mouse hover, and the Application name is still not showing. Has anyone else seen this? C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] KDE & NVidia login problems: any advice?
by Paul Hands 04 Jul '11

04 Jul '11

Hi all, I just rebuilt a machine which has been happily running SuSE 11.4 and various versions of the NVidia proprietary drivers. Running with the version of KDE installed by default from the distro DVD (4.6.0?), I can no longer log in. The progress bar gets to about 80% and then just sits there. If I leave it long enough, the screen saver cuts in, and them when reawakened, I get a black screen with the cursor, and the cursor responds to mouse moves, but nothing else. I've tried other versions of KDE, right up to Trunk, but no change. I've also tried different versions of the NVidia driver (260, 270, 275), but none let me log in. I can log into ICEWM just fine. The annoying thing is that the machine hardware is the same except that I added another SATA disk, and this all worked just fine before. I've done complete reformat & reinstall...no help. I've tried a fresh user in case kde config files are wrong....no change. Login does work with the Nouveau driver, but that's so unstable, it's not usable yet. Anyone any ideas/advice?

[opensuse-kde] SC 4.7 with Kontact 4.4?
by Markus Slopianka 03 Jul '11

03 Jul '11

Hi. Just noticed that Kontact 4.4 is in kr47 instead of the current 4.6/4.7 one. Is that on purpose or just a left-over override from previous releases? Markus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[snip] I had this issue with an older computer, but using an integrated intel graphics. The login would take a long time then I would get a black screen and a white cursor that was responsive. In the end, it had something to do with kernel mode setting (KMS). But I am not completely confident though. The fix that I am using was to add 'x11failsafe' to the boot options in grub. Perhaps type it in manually when it boots first just in case it prevents your system from coming up at all? That said, I've been running with that for a months or so and everything seems OK. Hope this helps you.

[opensuse-kde] Kmail2 does not let you chose different standard domain
by Malte Gell 27 Jun '11

27 Jun '11

In the SMTP settings of KMail2 you can chose a different standard domain. This does not work for me, whatever I put in there, KMail2 does not use it. I think this domain name is used for message id creation, right? How the heck can I tell KMail2 to use a different domain name? I even changed /etc/hosts without success!
