nntp (aka, usenet) client in kde?
by Gene Smith 08 Feb '20

08 Feb '20

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. -gene

session restore broken?
by Glenn Holmer 04 Sep '16

04 Sep '16

After the latest updates, saved session restore no longer restarts Thunderbird and Firefox. Is anyone else seeing this? -- Glenn Holmer (Linux registered user #16682) "After the vintage season came the aftermath -- and Cenbe."

xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.99.917-19.20151206.fc23 (re)enabled dri3 by default
by Rex Dieter 27 Aug '16

27 Aug '16

In the not-too-distant past, a xorg-x11-drv-intel update reverted back to default dri2 because dri3 was to unstable and too-often resulted in plasmashell freezes, see also: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-8616 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1223477 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1223477 A new update came this past week turning dri3 back on, https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-606ca05253 Please help test this if you are able. For *me*, it's pretty good, but I've now experienced at least 3 plasmashell deadlocks (when left idle and screen off) similar to past results when using dri3. And... oddly, chrome seems to freeze similar to plasmashell sometimes too. -- Rex

Add Panel Activites Lock Widgets Lock Screen Leave Desktop Settings On the other: All of above, except Desktop Settings, plus: Create New icons Paste Clipboard Contents Undo Refresh Desktop Open With Dolphin Folder View Settings How do I make them the same? Thanks!

update to kmail 16.04.2 (missing message headers)
by José Abílio Matos 30 Jun '16

30 Jun '16

Hi, after updating to the latest kmail in F24 I do not see the message headers and the options in View->Headers are missing. That is when pressing the Edit menu, I see the options for "Message List" and for Attachements but not Headers. Other than that everything is working fine in my daily usage. Regards, -- José Abílio

kwin crashes are getting annoying
by Ed Greshko 29 Jun '16

29 Jun '16

I can consistently get kwin crashes simply by using VirtualBox and clicking OK at various points when making changes to the configuration and/or managing a VM. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1351190 was filed using the auto reporting tools. But it seems there are many similar bugs that have gone back to last year. It is just that I've had to use VirtualBox on a project recently and having to wait while kwin restarts itself every time I make changes to a VM is getting annoying. -- You're Welcome Zachary Quinto

F24 Mozilla Plasma integration
by Tom Back 28 Jun '16

28 Jun '16

Since installing a fresh F24, Firefox and Thunderbird don't seem to integrate properly with Plasma workspace. For example, the save dialogue looks like Gnome and doesn't show my KDE places or bookmarks, and fonts also render differently, which leads me to believe my freetype settings aren't being used. I noticed the same problem with LibreOffice until I installed 'libreoffice-kde', although that of course gave me the unsightly gradient background behind the toolbars, but what can you do. I don't recall having the Mozilla problem in F22/23. Could I be missing a package? Tom

fingerprint reader turns on, doesn't turn off (f24)
by Neal Becker 27 Jun '16

27 Jun '16

When I type pw into screenlocker, it turns on the fingerprint reader (actually, after unlocking with keyboard!), and never turns off unless I swipe my finger. This had happened a few months ago on f23, but after update to f24, now it's back.
