nntp (aka, usenet) client in kde?
by Gene Smith
I currently use t-bird with an nntp account pointing to gmane to read
this list and sereral others. Does kde have an nntp client program of
any sort? I don't see it as a possible new account type in kmail. Also,
search with kpackagekit yields nothing with "usenet" or "nntp" that is
kde specific.

Widgets using ksysguardd make plasma-desktop raise to 100% CPU usage
by Martin Kho
Hi,
First, Fedora 15 KDE is again really great! Thanks for this.
I've just one - minor - issue. Plasma-desktop raises to 100% cpu usage when I
put widgets like CPU monitor, Network monitor or Hardware Temperature monitor
on the desktop.
Anyone else sees this?

Re: Disconnecting LAN from systray?
by Kyle
Ed,
I think it's a known issue. I have tried the same thing you did.
It existed in F14 too. Here is one of the bug
reports--->https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=267322.

KPackagekit is behaving oddly in system tray
by Kyle
Hello,
KPackagekit service is randomly (every 1-3 minutes)
popping/querying in/out of my system tray. I set it to check for
updates daily. Seems really odd. I am running F15/4.6.3. Ideas?

nouveau problem?
by Ed Greshko
Hi,
I've just installed F15 on a system previously running F11. The video
card is a nVidia GeForce GT 230 and I was running the nVidia drivers.
Now, I'm trying out the nouveau driver.
It seems to mostly work. But, there is an issue which may be due to
nouveau.
When I mouse over an application on the panel a box pops up with the
name of the application and for a second a square within the box shows
the running window.
Also, if I move my mouse to the upper left corner, all desktops should
be displayed. However, they are a bunch of grey blobs.
Is anyone seeing this?

Disconnecting LAN from systray?
by Ed Greshko
F15. I've the Network Management Icon in the systray. Clicking on it
pops up a display showing on the left "Interfaces" and the right
"Connections".
In the Interfaces is my LAN interface. In the upper right is a small
red X. When I mouse over it, it displays "Disconnect". However,
clicking on it has no effect. I could not find any buy related to
it...but I've been known to be a notoriously bad searcher. :-(
Is this a known issue or some thing amiss at my end?

Google calendar in Kontact
by Anne Wilson
On the kdepim list, a while back, someone wrote a very clear how-to for
setting up Google calendar in Kontact, but he uses Ubuntu. The packages he
said were needed are
libgcal
akonadi-kde-resource-googledata
The first I have installed, but what is the Fedora equivalent of the second
one, please?

activities and icons
by Ed Greshko
I run 6 "Virtual Desktops" and in the "Pager Settings" I have "Different
Widgets for each Desktop" checked. Now, I like to create "Link to
applications" (a.k.a. icons?) of different sorts on each desktop. As it
is, whenever I create a link on a given desktop it appears on all desktops.
I have yet to find a way to have a different set of icons on each
workspace. I that somehow possible?
