Okular Does Not Print Form Values
by Reuben D. Budiardja 28 Mar '09

28 Mar '09

Hello, I have PDF that has interactive form in it. I can fill in values with Okular, even save the file and open the PDF file again with previously filled in values. But I cannot seem to print the PDF file with the filled in values, either directly to printer, or as PDF or PS. Even print-preview does not show the values. Is this a bug ? is anyone else having this problem ? I use Fedora 10 fully updated. Thanks. RDB

How do I "fix my installation" ?
by Arthur Pemberton 27 Mar '09

27 Mar '09

According to : https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=188135 I need to fix my installation. Since I don't remember doing anything special to have my installation in this state, I'm turning to the list for advice on how to fix it.

Google Gadgets broken?
by Jeffrey D Anderson 27 Mar '09

27 Mar '09

After the latest KDE upgrade on my Fedora 10 machine it seems that google gadgets no longer work. I'd had a couple of them installed on my desktop, and now I get empty black boxes with a message in them that they cannot find "ggl_2" and "ggl_3" When I try to "Add Widgets" to the desktop, the google gadgets that I'd previously had installed have an hour glass next to them and cannot be added. The drop down box at the bottom, "Install New Widgets" used to have an entry for "New Plasma Widgets" and for "New Google Gadgets". Now only the Plasma widgets entry exists. Going to krunner and searching for google takes me to a program that, when run, starts up an RSS newfeed and a clock, so it looks like something is installed and functioning. rpm -qa |grep google google-gadgets-qt-0.10.5-3.fc10.i386 google-gadgets-0.10.5-3.fc10.i386 rpm -q kdebase-workspace kdebase-workspace-4.2.1-7.fc10.i386 The same problem exists on another newly installed machine running the x86_64 distribution. I've also tried creating a new user and have the same results, so I don't think it's some old cruft in my .kde directory. Anyone else see this? I haven't seen any mention on the mailing list, nor is there anything in the kde bugtracker. Jeff Anderson Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory

F10 & KDE 4.2.1 rocks...
by linux guy 25 Mar '09

25 Mar '09

Hi people. Just a quick note to say that F10/ KDE4.2.1 rocks for me. Its stable and fast. It does everything I need it to and then some. I've been working my butt off doing stuff in F10 for the last few weeks and its great. Kudos to the KDE & Fedora teams for delivering such a great product. Caveat: I can't wait for KDE 4.2.2 and Qt4.5... LG

Two network icons in my panel
by Timothy Murphy 25 Mar '09

25 Mar '09

The recent thread "2 battery widget icons" made me wonder again why I have two network icons in the panel on my laptop. They are similar but not identical - one has thicker bars than the other. The thin one has an "About" item in the right-click menu, telling me that it belongs to NM Applet. Would it not be a good idea to make it a rule that all panel icons should have such an item in their right-click menu? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland

apps hanging on launch recently? read on...
by Rex Dieter 25 Mar '09

25 Mar '09

fyi, hear of or experience apps hanging on start recently? point them to this https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=492085 Recent libX11-1.1.5-1.fc10 update has xim-related issues it would appear... That's the best we have to go on so far. (I'm still asking around, poking folks...) -- Rex

KMail: (another) Bug or Privacy option?
by Martin Kho 25 Mar '09

25 Mar '09

Hi, I run KMail - v. 1.11.1 - stand alone and with the default lay out (Long Folder List, Message Preview Pane below Message List, no Structure viewer). When KMail starts it opens my Inbox, selects latest messages in the list and shows this message in the preview pane. So far so good. Now, when I click my inbox - don't ask me why I click my Inbox when it's already open, I just like to click around :-) -, the message preview disappears. I have to choose an other folder to get the message back. Tried this with IMAP and (local) POP- folders. Have someone else seen this behavior? Is it a bug or is it intentionally? Martin Kho

Kmail just disappears
by Arthur Pemberton 24 Mar '09

24 Mar '09

When Kmail crashes, as it often does, it just goes "poof". Regardless of if run directly or via Kontact. With or without kdepim-debuginfo, and even if run from Konsole. As of tonight it crashed once, and now just won't open messages I click on, with no visible errors. -- Fedora 9 : sulphur is good for the skin ( www.pembo13.com )

2 battery widget icons
by Neal Becker 23 Mar '09

23 Mar '09

I've seen this once before- and now it's back. Battery monitor is showing 2 icons in panel. I thought maybe there were 2 instances, so I deleted one, and both icons disappeared. Adding back battery widget, I've got 2 icons again. kdebase-4.2.1-2.fc10.x86_64
