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

KDE4 print dialog does not have "Range" option
by Reuben D. Budiardja 22 Oct '09

22 Oct '09

Hello, It seems that KDE4 print dialog does not have the "Range" option that was in KDE 3.5. Under Option, Copies tab, it only has radio button for "Print all" or "Pages from: .. to ..". This is a regression of functionality, since in KDE 3.5, I can for example set and print the pages: 1-3,5,8-11; but not in KDE4. Is this correct or am I missing something ? Is there bug report associated with this missing functionality ? I tried to search but didn't find anything. Thanks. RDB

NetworkManager Applet goes rogue
by Anne Wilson 02 Sep '09

02 Sep '09

On my netbook (F11 updated to last night), over the last week or so I've seen a few times the NetworkManager applet leaves the system try and parks on the desktop. Presumably I should file a bug, but is this a NM bug or a Plasma bug? Anne -- New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org Just found a cool new feature? Add it to UserBase

Strigi problems (dolphin info panel)
by Martin (KDE) 01 Sep '09

01 Sep '09

Hallo after the upgade of my F11 to kde 4.3 my dolphin info panel lost most of the infos it showed in kde 4.2. After some mails on the kde list and searches in the net (and not being able to get strigi running) I decided to install soprano sesame backend which is not available from fedora (In a fedora bugreport i read something about binary only part or similar - is it solved?). I downloaded the src rpm from rex' fedorapeople site, compiled and installed it and after a relogin strigi started to run. Now I can see additional infos in the info sidebar of dolphin. The question is: Is sesame needed to get strigi running? I heard it is much faster than redland tools, are there any chances to get the sesame package available from fedora repo? Martin

Heads up - plasma-desktop-appletsrc
by Anne Wilson 31 Aug '09

31 Aug '09

Keep an eye on the size of your plasma-desktop-appletsrc. If you do a lot of copying, for instance, it will grow quite large. If that happens, back it up and then edit - look for links to temporary files and containments that are obviously concerned with copying jobs, and remove them. Tread with care - only remove the things you are certain of. The bug is known, and being dealt with. It's only ill-effect is to slow down the launch of kde - so until that becomes a problem for you, you don't need to do anything about it.

I think KDE4.3 has surpassed KDE 3.5.10 ...
by linux guy 31 Aug '09

I think that KDE 4.3 has surpassed what we had with KDE 3.5.10. I've been running 4.3 for the past few days and its awesome. This is the first time that I feel the KDE 4.x series has surpassed the KDE 3.5 releases. Good work !

KMail distribution list

Is it possible under KMail/KAddressBook to set up a mailman-like mailing list, say "Neighbours", so that the To line appears as "Neighbours" rather than the list of addresses in the mailing-list? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland

There was a thread more than a month ago about kdeinit4 failing to start before one did as root a 'prelink -f /usr/bin/kdeinit4'. Well the problem is still here. Anyone knows anything?

[root@eb eelko]# yum install phonon-devel.i586 Loaded plugins: presto Setting up Install Process Package phonon-devel is obsoleted by qt-devel, trying to install 1:qt-devel-4.5.2-10.fc11.i586 instead Package 1:qt-devel-4.5.2-10.fc11.i586 already installed and latest version Thanks for the hint, Mark. I'll take this over the the Fedora KDE list. -- Met vriendelijke groet / With kind regards, Eelko Berkenpies
