kde spectacle disappears when taking a New Screenshot in Fedora 25
by max.blair＠brynathyn.edu 15 Jun '17

15 Jun '17

I am new to spectacle AND Fedora 25 (long time user of Fedora 21 and ksnapshot). spectacle graphic window appears as expected. The spectacle graphic window disappears when I take a New Screenshot. The process is still running in background. I was experimenting to look for clues. I brought up spectacle from the command line (using Konsole) and I get the following error printed out: [mblair@localhost 05_Business_Development]$ spectacle& [1] 14352 [mblair@localhost 05_Business_Development]$ QPainter::begin: Paint device returned engine == 0, type: 2 QPixmap::scaled: Pixmap is a null pixmap QPixmap::scaled: Pixmap is a null pixmap qrc:///QuickEditor/EditorRoot.qml:75:5: QML Image: Failed to get image from provider: image://snapshot/rawimage qrc:///QuickEditor/EditorRoot.qml:75:5: QML Image: Failed to get image from provider: image://snapshot/rawimage Can anyone tell me what they think is causing spectacle to fail? Thank you (note: I was regularly using ksnapshot in Fedora 21 - just recently installed Fedora 25 - ksnapshot now has video problems with scrambled screen when requesting New Screenshot - BUT since ksnapshot is going away I will not solve this problem and will use spectacle)

Knode not honouring time format
by Peter Gueckel 15 Jun '17

15 Jun '17

I just noticed that, while I have time in System Settings set to Default (C), which means that time should be displayed in 24-hour format without the AM/PM indications, and I have knode set to use localized format, it is not honouring my system settings and is using the old AM/PM format. Is anyone seeing this and what is to be done?

Sudden logout after updating KDE
by Patrick O'Callaghan 13 Jun '17

13 Jun '17

This has happened to me frequently over the past year, but is difficult to pin down. I thought I'd mention it here in case anyone else has seen it. What happens is this: 1) I run "sudo dnf update". 2) The tracer plugin says I need to restart my session, usually because some library has changed. 3) I log out (this often crashes kdeinit5). 4) I log in again. This takes longer than usual, giving the impression that some stuff is still being cleaned up from the previous session. 5) I start working. 6) A minute or so later, I am suddenly thrown out and am back at the login screen. 7) I log in again and everything is fine. The journal shows several lines reading: Attempted to re-run an already running session These are associated with konsole and kdeinit5. Also yakuake which most people probably don't have. It's notable that a) this never happens if I've rebooted the system between sessions, and b) it seems not to happen if I've delayed a few minutes before logging in again, even without rebooting. I haven't poked around further in the journal (too much information) but I conjecture this may be related to a bad systemd recipe, where some component is not waiting for a previous instance to terminate. Any thoughts on what to look for? poc

calligra3 (close to) ready
by Rex Dieter 13 Jun '17

13 Jun '17

Anyone who wants to try out qt5/kf5-based calligra office suite (including kexi), I have packaging pretty close to ready for public consumption. f25/f26 packages are available from copr, https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/rdieter/calligra3/ Anyone interested in helping get this into fedora, there are a few reviews pending, tracked here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=calligra3 Thanks. -- Rex

k3b Confusion
by Peter Gueckel 11 Jun '17

11 Jun '17

Installed: k3b-* 1:2.0.3-12 k3b-extras-freeworld 1:2.0.3-6 About a week ago, k3b-1:17.04.1-1 came out. Going by the numbering, this is an older version (?), but it is presented as an update to 2.0.3. It does not update because of a missing freeworld and other problems. What is this new k3b? Does it reflect the new licensing, by incorporating the codecs into the main package so that freeworld has become obsolete? Or are we waiting for a freeworld partner package?

wayland on plasma
by Neal Becker 09 Jun '17

09 Jun '17

Every now and then I try again wayland on plasma (intel graphics). It still doesn't give good results here. The display is HiDPI, and many elements (e.g. fonts) are too large. (Yes, too large, you'd expect them to be too small)

Fedora VM networks stalls
by ProPAAS DBA 07 Jun '17

07 Jun '17

Hi all; I've setup a Fedora 25 VM in vmware Workstation sitting in a CentOS 7 host behind an untangle firewall. After running for what seems like a few hours the VM becomes unreachable via the port forward rules, I get "Connection timed out" while my other VM's (CentOS 6 & CentOS 7) remain accessible. I've disabled firewalld and enabled sshd on the Fedora 25 VM, Any thoughts on what might be causing this? Thanks in advance

F26 Talking Points
by Eduard Lucena 05 Jun '17

05 Jun '17

Hi team, I'm Eduard Lucena, and I'm here in the behalf of the Marketing team. As you should know, we prepare a lists of highlights about each release, called Talking Points: Talking points are key highlights of the new release. There are different > types of talking points for different types of people: general desktop > users/everyone, developers, and sysadmins. They are meant to provide a > short, effective answer to the question "What cool stuff is in the latest > release of Fedora?" They are compelling, not necessarily comprehensive > This points help us, as Marketing team, as well to Ambassadors, to publicize each release with the news and cool stuff. For this matter and this release, we have this wiki page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_26_talking_points and we will be happy to include the new things in the KDE Spin. You can help us in both ways: 1. Editing the wiki directly with the points. 2. Throwing us the list, and we will put them in the wiki. Thanks in advance for your help and for your efforts.
