Ping Rex
by Anne Wilson 22 Dec '09

22 Dec '09

Rex, some time ago you told me the best way to start gpg-agent under Fedora. Unfortunately I can't find the message, and I have problems with agent on the F10 netbook and the newly repaired CentOS 5.2 box. If you could tell me again I'll make sure that it is easily found - a gpg page has been started on userbase, so I could put it there. Anne

What do we use ~/Public for?
by Arthur Pemberton 31 Jan '09

31 Jan '09

I'm guessing that this is a desktop question as opposed to a devel question, but I'm not on the -desktop list and here seems like the next best place... What exactly is ~/Public being used for? A regular user may thing that places files there makes them... public. -- Fedora 9 : sulphur is good for the skin ( www.pembo13.com )

Could Be a Really Really Dumb Question
by Eli Wapniarski 31 Jan '09

31 Jan '09

This could be one of the dumbest questions I've ever asked, but... It shouldn't take hours and hours to add and switch kde language settings in System Settings -> Regional & Languages -> Locale -> Add Language should it? I had to cancel and then restore .kde from backup to get things working again. Remember to backup .kde if you're going to try this. If this behavior is confirmed, then I will file a bug report Thanks Eli -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Nepomuk/Strigi problem
by Anne Wilson 31 Jan '09

31 Jan '09

Quoting conversation from kde(a)mail.kde.org: On Saturday 31 January 2009, Anne Wilson wrote: > Time to explore Nepomuk/Strigi, I thought. However, I see: > > Failed to contact Strigi indexer (No such method 'curre... at object path > '/nepomukstritiservice' (signature '')) > > Bug, or something I need to do before using strigi? My interpretation of the output is that the strigi service was reachable, i.,e. started correctly, but didn't respond as expected (i.e. not having the desired method available). Probably a version mismatch between the caller (Nepomuk?) and the service. Cheers, Kevin After today's updates that message has disappeared, but although I have checked Enable Strigi Desktop File Indexer I still see 'Strigi service not running'. Have I missed something?

fresh installed GUI application does not appear in KDE menu
by Orcan Ogetbil 31 Jan '09

31 Jan '09

How to reproduce: - Install the latest KDE 4.2.0 from kde-redhat-testing * - Install any GUI application that comes with a /usr/share/applications/*.desktop file via yum Actual result: The application doesn't appear in the KDE menu until re-login Expected result: The application shows up in the KDE menu rightaway (well maybe with a slight delay, but surely one shouldn't have to log out and back in). I am 90% sure that this problem didn't exist in KDE 4.1.9? versions. Can you confirm this?

First Impressions of 4.2
by Eli Wapniarski 31 Jan '09

31 Jan '09

On a Wow factor. I would have to give KDE 4.2 a Wo plus half of the final w. :) There was obviously a heck of a lot of improvements made to underlying code. Heck, I've even restored Konqueror as my default browser. Nspluginwrapper / flash is snappier in Konqueror than in Firefox. There are of course few of my favorite features still missing but the result is getting more and more impressive with every release. Absolutely fantastic.

How Do You kget to start downloading automagically
by Eli Wapniarski 31 Jan '09

31 Jan '09

Hi I'm having a minor issue with kget. When I try to download a file, the file appears in kget, but it doesn't start downloading unless I open the kget window and press on the start button. I can't seem to find a configuration option that tells kget to start automagically. Is there such a thing or should I file a bug report?
