[opensuse-kde3] openSUSE 12.1 with KDE3 and KDE4 applications
by Gianluca Interlandi 05 May '15

05 May '15

Hi! I am about to install openSUSE 12.1 on a laptop. I want to use it mainly (or entirely) with the KDE3 desktop but I still want to be able to run KDE4 applications under KDE3. In the past, I have done this with openSUSE 11.3 and 11.4. During installation of 11.3 and 11.4, I selected KDE4 as the default desktop. Then I added the KDE:KDE3 repository and installed all the packages to properly run KDE3 following more or less the recommendations given here: HOW-TO: KDE 3.5 on 11.4 This has worked perfectly and I was even able to use the oxygen theme in KDE3. For example, okular and vlc came with the nice oxygen theme even when running under KDE3. My question is: Is this procedure going to work also with openSUSE 12.1 or is there anything in particular I have to pay attention to? Thanks!

[opensuse-kde3] KDE3 Desktop Image Position
by uraharakisuke153＠gmail.com 26 Oct '12

26 Oct '12

I am using KDE 3.5.10 on openSUSE 12.2 from the main repository. The bug is when I change to any image position other than tiled, it looks tiled. If I use tiled, it looks like scaled/cropped (I assume). To reproduce: 1. Right click on desktop and choose Configure Desktop 2. Under background; Choose any Picture, and then below play with the options under position. If I pick centred, it looks tiled. Tiled is the only one that seems to work correctly (it looks like centered or scaled). Perhaps a bug in qt3? Also I should note I am using intel graphics card drivers with SNA. I tried disabling SNA and had the same result. Sorry to bother you with a trivial bug I only wondered if it was just me. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde3] OpenSUSE 12.2 and USB-stick safely remove
by update 17 Oct '12

17 Oct '12

Hi, I am testing 12.2 kde3 at the moment. When trying to remove a USB-stick by "safely remove" I get the error message: Error - kio_media_mounthelper Unable to unmount "/dev/sdb1". Reason: Not authorized to perform operation When I enter umount /dev/sdb1 in a xterm, I can unmount the device and with eject I can remove the device. I have only the kde:kde3 repository in use at the moment and no HAL running. Is there any thing I have to adjust, to get the unmount/remove of the device working?

Hello, found a wrong behaviour for quanta. Just made any changes for my website (project in quanta), but it is impossible to save a changed file (over the fish-protocoll using ftp). I think, that happen's since one of the KDE3-updates. Don't know, since which update it was. Please, korrect this annoying behaviour.
