Ping Rex
by Anne Wilson
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.

RE: Too secure to be practical!

This should work:
Copy data from SD card to hard drive, format SD card, copy data back to SD card.

I don't recall doing it, much less why, but I have an 8GB SD card containing
data, but it is LUKS encrypted. I can read it here, on Fedora, but it's not
terribly useful, since I can't read it on, for instance, my daughter's Windows
system. There must be some way of removing the encryption? Any hints?

Man pages in dolphin or konqueror
by Anne Wilson
I have been in the habit of reading man pages in konqueror when I need to
study them, as the formatting makes it easier on the eye. I haven't been
able to since we moved to KDE4. Is this something still missing from the
konq-extras, or do I have something wrong?
Typing 'man:yum' tells me that it can't find any man page for yum, yet using
the cli it works perfectly. I'm told that it works in konqueror and dolphin
on Debian Sid, too.

PDF / DOC / HTML preview in dolphin.
by Gilboa Davara
Hello all,
Never noticed it until today (no idea why).
But dolphin (KDE 4.3.2 / F11) doesn't preview pdf/doc/html files.
Is it a known issue or am I missing a package ?
(okular is working just fine, latest kdegraphics is installed)

Lost facility with xdvi
by Timothy Murphy
Xdvi on my Fedora-11/KDE machine
no longer seems to keep up with changes in the DVI file.
Previously, I could latex foo.tex in one window,
and run "xdvi foo" in another window.
Then if I edited foo.tex and latex-ed it again,
the xdvi view was automatically updated.
This no longer seems to happen.
Is that a change in TeX-live, or in Fedora,
or have I inadvertently changed my setup in some way?

How to delete/map Activities?
by Petrus de Calguarium
I have plasma set to use 4 desktop activities, one for
each virtual desktop.
For some reason there are 6 activities (why?) and at
each login it can, and occasionally does, happen that
a different activity is mapped to a virtual desktop.
The configuration will stay for days, even a couple of
weeks, and then, all of a sudden one morning when I
boot up, an activity will appear on the 'wrong'
virtual desktop (not a big problem) and one of the
unused activities will appear on a virtual desktop
(definitely a nuisance).
How can I delete the undesired activities (there is no
delete X when I zoom out)?
Why does the one appearing on virtual 1, vt 2, etc.
keep changing without any action on my part?

Re: K3B 1.68 and EasyRPM
by Diego
> rpm -q k3b qt
> please.
k3b-1.68.0-1.fc10.i386
qt-4.5.2-13.fc10.i386
That qt has been downloaded from kde-unstable (or testing, I don't
remember exactly) some time ago, so probably that's the problem...
should I upgrade?
And thank Kevin for the explanation about RPMs. :)

Updating F12 Alpha
by Sonic
I had installed F12 alpha couple of weeks back and found it not to be
useful for me (no working drivers for NVidia).
Now that F12 beta is released, will a "yum update" on the Alpha make it
equivalent to Beta+updates (==rawhide?) ?
Thanks,
