Transfering files between Fedora
by Hernán Ramírez 06 Oct '15

06 Oct '15

Hi all, I have a testing laptop that i also use as a backup device and while i always used to transfer the files from my main laptop using the windows OS on both with the Ethernet port, now that i am using F22 KDE, i would like to learn how to do it on this distro. I have heard it's a bit harder to do it with Linux, but i would like to hear suggestions on which is the better way. Hernán

Plasma - any hope for my laptop?
by Timothy Murphy 06 Oct '15

06 Oct '15

I have a ThinkPad T61, with Nvidia G86M [Quadro NVS 140M] GPU. I like to run Fedora KDE, but my experience with successive Fedora's has not been happy. The laptop just about worked with Fedora-21. It is more or less unusable with Fedora-22, and completely useless with Fedora-23 beta. Is there any possibility that it might work with some future version of Fedora KDE? Or should I resign to using it as a Windows machine, which needless to say works perfectly on it. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin

KF5: show desktop / focus behavior
by Reindl Harald 04 Oct '15

04 Oct '15

i really have enough of that stupid behavior that "show desktop" get completly reverted when you do *anything* afterwards - the whole purpose of "show desktop" is to get a ton of open windows minimized and bring a specific one in the forgeround - the current behavior makes the whole desktop unusable all day long well, "show desktop" to rename a file in a folder-view reverting "show desktop" is just a joke and when the cursor still is there to rename the previously chosen file and you click the file get opened because folder-view no longer respects the "Open with double click" settings of the filemanager P.S.: which upstream genie decided to come up again with the blue shadows around windows while at the same time remove the option to disable that which existed in KDE4? that's nice in the context "look how cool we are" but annoying and boring after a few days and it's diversionary

Plan for F22 KDE updates after F23 release?
by Roderick Johnstone 04 Oct '15

04 Oct '15

Hi I was wondering what the plan for releasing KDE updates in F22 was following the F23 release? IIRC, in the past, KDE updates for Fn used to stop when F(n+1) was released, but F22 could certainly do with continuing KDE updates. Its not convenient for us all to update to F23. Thanks Roderick

ah, I see now, yes, that's definitely a problem. :-/ -- Rex ________________________________________ From: kde-bounces(a)lists.fedoraproject.org <kde-bounces(a)lists.fedoraproject.org> on behalf of Kevin Kofler <kevin.kofler(a)chello.at> Sent: Sunday, October 4, 2015 6:56 AM To: kde(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Subject: Re: Korganizer does not autostart Rex Dieter wrote: > Hrm, I was assuming that plasma5 (still) supported X-KDE-autostart- > condition. Do you have evidence to the contrary? Sure, it supports it (I think), but that won't do any help because KOrganizer is a KDE 4 application and writes to the old settings location (.kde/share/config) whereas Plasma 5 only looks in .config.

Korganizer does not autostart
by Syam Krishnan 04 Oct '15

04 Oct '15

Hi I am on Fedora 22, fully updated. When I start KOrganizer manually, it works fine and there's a systray entry for the reminder daemon. The setting "start reminder daemon at login" is enabled in its right-click menu. But at next login, it does not start. I have to manually start KOrganizer. In system settings, I've configured for "Start with an empty session", but that's how it has always been and KOrganizer used to auto-start. In 'Autostart' tab, KOrganizer is not included, but again, I never had to add it manually in previous versions. Is this a bug? Or am I missing something? Thanks and regards, Syam Krishnan C.R.

well, wwith the latest updates some things eems to be better, still lags but not that long, but krunner crashs randomly and given that the startmenu is just unusaebale without lancelot now breaking ALT+F2 is a joke am i really the only person who loved lancelot because oyu did not need to went through the whole strcuture for starting 5 entries of the same submenu (like 5 vnc-connections to different testing windows or other testing virtual machines in the network)? starting krunner manually works ometimes for a while (the need to keep the terminal open is still a joke - in case of lancelot not refreshing menues it was no problem for years to tpye "killall lancelot followed by ALT+F2 lancelot in a running session) QObject::connect: No such signal KActivities::Consumer::serviceStatusChanged(KActivities::Consumer::ServiceStatus) QObject::connect: (receiver name: 'Activities') I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/home/harry/.qalculate/eurofxref-daily.xml" I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/home/harry/.qalculate/eurofxref-daily.xml" QSocketNotifier: Invalid socket 6 and type 'Read', disabling...

probably easier (imo), dnf --enablerepo=updates-testing install kde-runtime then, you can, dnf remove kde-runtime-drkonqi -- Rex ________________________________________ From: kde-bounces(a)lists.fedoraproject.org <kde-bounces(a)lists.fedoraproject.org> on behalf of Ed Greshko <ed.greshko(a)greshko.com> Sent: Friday, October 2, 2015 10:13 PM To: kde(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Subject: Re: A near freeze of plasma On 10/03/2015 01:45 AM, Rex Dieter wrote: > > https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-2827d4eff6 > which allows for kde-runtime-drkonqi to be removed as a workaround to: > > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1264486 > OK... One question, and I may just be having a brain fart, what is the correct incantation to download the updated rpms using the bodhi CLI? I thought it was.... bodhi -D https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-2827d4eff6 but that fails. -- In reality, some people should stick to running Windows and others should stay away from computers altogether. _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde(a)lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
