Interface fonts in Firefox and Thunderbird with KDE4
by James Amundson 31 Dec '08

31 Dec '08

Hi, Does anyone out there understand how Firefox and Thunderbird determine which fonts to use for their user interface, i.e., menus, etc? I have installed "GTK styles and Fonts" display settings module. It works fine for ordinary gtk and Gnome applications. However, Firefox and Thunderbird seem to have some more complex system for determining their system fonts. The only way I can get F & T to respect my font choice while using KDE4 is to (1) log in under Gnome, (2) change some font settings, (3) log out (without rebooting) (4) log in under KDE4. Does anyone else have this problem? I'd love to report it as a bug, but I'm not even sure which component is the problem. --Jim Amundson

Re: Blue Panel
by Petrus de Calguarium 31 Dec '08

31 Dec '08

I rather like it blue, but it only stays blue for a little while and then turns black and I cannot make it become blue anymore. Sometimes one of my panels is blue and the other black, but this is only on the laptop. Yes, I do believe I recall it having been transparent a few weeks ago, but I haven't seen that for a long time now.

Blue Panel
by Paul Vandenberg 31 Dec '08

31 Dec '08

Hi, Does anyone know if the KDE 4.2 Oxygen panel is supposed to be blue? It was transparent at first. I turned off desktop effects. The panel then became black. When I went to resize it, it turned blue and no matter what I do, it stays blue, even if I turn desktop effects back on. Just wondering if this is expected behaviour or is a bug. I am using KDE 4.2 beta 2. Paul

kbluetooth4 symbol lookup error
by Andreas Petzold 31 Dec '08

31 Dec '08

Hi, starting kbluetooth4 and plugging a usb bluetooth dongle, I get the following error: kbluetooth4: symbol lookup error: kbluetooth4: undefined symbol: _ZN5Solid7Control16BluetoothManager8securityERK7QString c++filt tells me that this is a Solid symbol _ZN5Solid7Control16BluetoothManager8securityERK7QString Solid::Control::BluetoothManager::security(QString const&) so I guess this is a kdelibs problem. Does kdebluetooth need to be rebuild for the 4.2beta? kdelibs-4.1.85-6.fc10.i386 kdebluetooth-0.2-3.fc10.i386 Cheers, Andreas

permanently expand all threads in selected folders
by Claude Jones 30 Dec '08

30 Dec '08

It uset to be possible to set the behavior for thread expansion. For certain folders, like the one I pipe this list to, for example, I prefer to have all threads permanently expanded. I can't seem to get that to happen any more... anyone? -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA

Where to file bugs about the kde-redhat packages?
by Mary Ellen Foster 30 Dec '08

30 Dec '08

My husband and I have been playing around with the KDE 4.2 beta 2 packages from kde-redhat on our Fedora 10 machines, and we've got a few bugs to file. Should they go to bugzilla.redhat.com or bugs.kde.org? (Or both?) Thanks, MEF -- Mary Ellen Foster -- http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/mef/ Informatik 6: Robotics and Embedded Systems, Technische Universität München and ICCS, School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh

Weather Plasmoid
by Petrus de Calguarium 29 Dec '08

In 4.1.80 or thereabout the weather plasmoid used to offer data sources like Environment Canada and a coupla others. In subsequent updates, no data sources have been available, rendering the plasmoid useless.
