Kmail Classic Theme
by Eli Wapniarski 22 Feb '09

22 Feb '09

Hi I just wondered if someone can confirm this for me before I file a bug report. If I switch themes to "Classic", I don't see any fonts in the mail list box. Eli -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Anybody Know How to File Bug Reports over at OpenOffice.org
by Eli Wapniarski 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

As the subject says. And by the way... Does anybody know of a good option to do proper mailmerge to an email. OpenOffice.org is really limited and really buggy. And this feature does not seem to be available at all KOffice. I gotta send out resume's Eli -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Re: Random Lockups Anyone?
by Kyle 20 Feb '09

Hello, The random lock ups on laptops w/ intel drivers is a known bug. Here is the bug report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=465884 Symptoms include keyboard lock ups, mouse still active but cannot click or select anything, only way to reboot or shutdown is to hold down the power button. Version 2.5 of the intel driver has the fix. I tried compiling it against my kernel and it did not work. I tried this method: - make a new dir /usr/local/xorg as root - dowloaded http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/...-2.5.0.tar.bz2 - use ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/xorg, make , make install - Configured xorg.conf to allow to use custom compiled modules to keep old libs as it was: Section "Files" ModulePath "/usr/local/xorg/lib/xorg/modules/" ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules" FontPath "catalogue:/etc/X11/fontpath.d" FontPath "built-ins" EndSection When I was trying to find the error for this bug I had to ssh into my machine and look at the Xorg log. If you reboot or hard power off I think the log will not have the error. I suggest you guys add yourselves to the bug list so we can get a fix. Kyle

File a bug against what?
by Anne Wilson 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

I want to file a report concerning slowness and transitory freezes, on the Acer Aspire One. I have some observations that need to be passed on. However, I'm unsure about the component choice. I thought it would be kwin, but that's not an option. It's definitely a graphics rendering problem, so which component do I choose? Anne

KRecipes goes kaput
by Tejas Dinkar 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

KRecipes doesn't seem to work for me (at all) on fedora 10. krecipes-0.9.1-9.fc9.i386 As it doesn't seem to work /at all/, I suspect it is a dependency (on qt3.3 or sqlite) error (thus the gap in the backtrace, thought I have sqlite-devel installed) Note: the app doesn't have a dependency (as per rpm) on qt3-sqlite, and I don't have it installed (of course, installing it doesn't change anything, I already tried :) Here is the backtrace: Application: Krecipes (krecipes), signal SIGABRT [Current thread is 1 (Thread 0xb7fa0b40 (LWP 14337))] Thread 1 (Thread 0xb7fa0b40 (LWP 14337)): [KCrash Handler] #6 0x00e57416 in __kernel_vsyscall () #7 0x00760450 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6 #8 0x00761e18 in abort () from /lib/libc.so.6 #9 0x007a43c3 in malloc_printerr () from /lib/libc.so.6 #10 0x007a62e5 in free () from /lib/libc.so.6 #11 0x080c7bf8 in ??

Random Lockups Anyone?
by Tejas Dinkar 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

Does anyone else have this issue of X suddenly locking up at Random Things? I'm not sure if it's a bug with my Graphics Driver (probably is), but it only seems to happen in KDE, and never with GNOME (even with Desktop Effects off) My symtoms are that KDE (and X in general) suddenlly locks up. The mouse may be moved for a few seconds. If I try sshing in and killing X, or pressing the power button to shut down, then my caps lock button starts blinking (Kernel Panic). Since KDE 4.2, the frequency with which these lock ups happen is going up. Does anyone know what might be wrong/a workaround? I'm using a VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) rpm -q xorg-x11-drv-i810 kdelibs kdebase-workspace kdebase-runtime xorg-x11-drv-i810-2.5.0-4.fc10.i386 kdelibs-4.2.0-10.fc10.i386 kdebase-workspace-4.2.0-8.fc10.i386 kdebase-runtime-4.2.0-6.fc10.i386 -- Tejas Dinkar http://gja.in

Changing plasma theme
by Jeremy Sanders 18 Feb '09

18 Feb '09

Again, is it just me, or is the desktop theme configuration tool completely broken? Firstly it is hidden under non-intuitively under "Advanced Desktop Settings." Secondly, If I try to change the theme (choosing from the drop down list at the top left) it doesn't enable the Apply button at the bottom. If I try to change one of the individual elements, the apply button is enabled, but it pops up a message box saying "To change your desktop theme to "(Customized)" open Desktop Settings and select "(Customized)" from the droplist. It then doesn't actually change anything. It looks like KDE 4.2 sucks in Fedora 10 rather a lot more than I thought it would, especially as compared with KDE 4.1. Apologies if the formatting is broken, but Knode pastes text in an extremely strange unformatted way... yet another bug report I feel. Jeremy
