qt-4.5.1-2 in kde-redhat/testing
by Rex Dieter 24 Apr '09

24 Apr '09

OK, followup on yesterdays test of qt-4.5.1-1 builds, we now have qt-4.5.1-2 which should address the oxygen/rendering badness ( http://rdieter.livejournal.com/13559.html ). Been using it here now for ~20 minutes giving it a workout, working well so far. Try it out! Test it! You know you want to. All your friends are. -- Rex

22 Apr '09

yum --enablerepo=updates-debuginfo info kdepim --showdup ... Name : kdepim Arch : x86_64 Epoch : 6 Version : 4.2.2 Release : 3.fc10 Size : 11 M Repo : updates ... OK, 4.2.2 is in updates. yum --enablerepo=updates-debuginfo info kdepim-debuginfo --showdup ... Available Packages Name : kdepim-debuginfo Arch : x86_64 Epoch : 6 Version : 4.2.1 Release : 3.fc10 Size : 114 M Repo : updates-debuginfo So, why does updates have 4.2.2, but updates-debuginfo has only 4.2.1?

It looks OK with transparency - so with desktop effects on. But this is screenshot from Xephyr -> no DE, no transparency and aseigo denied patch witch transparency support without DE :-( But DEs are not ready for all GFX... Even progress is now quite quick - Intel 915 was absolutely unusable one moth ago, today it's quite working (still too BIG regression to older driver, waiting for .30 kernel). I have to try ATI... PS: thanks Rex for Leonidas import - I spent all day yesterday in bed...

Leonidas KDE Theme package review
by Jaroslav Reznik 17 Apr '09

17 Apr '09

Hi all! Package is ready for review [1]. It's more in initial state than final package but we need it in Fedora asap. - KDM theme is same as Solar, only uses Leonidas background - TBD. - KSplash is Plymouth style one - thanks to Charlie Brej - but it needs some more work - it's not possible in KSplash to have same animation/same feeling as Plymouth - Wallpaper theme doesn't contain lion - but I'd like to have two versions - default one without lion, optional one with lion head. People complained that it's too bright for desktop Another questions are PNG and KDM subpackage. I have to ping Martin Sourada. You can find it in SVN repository [2]. Some obligatory screenshots [3] [4] [5] [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=495875 [2] https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-kde-artwork/ [3] http://rezza.hofyland.cz/desktops/leonidas-screenshot1.png [4] http://rezza.hofyland.cz/desktops/leonidas-screenshot2.png [5] http://rezza.hofyland.cz/desktops/leonidas-screenshot3.png Jaroslav -- Jaroslav Řezník <jreznik(a)redhat.com> Associate Software Engineer - Base Operating Systems Brno Office: +420 532 294 275 Mobile: +420 731 455 332 Red Hat, Inc. http://cz.redhat.com/

I think Air is going to look really nice but we'll see. Aya is nice theme indeed. I can "hack" current Oxygen theme to look better with Leonidas theme. I had some ideas for Solar Plasma theme but it's too much work for only one release. Maybe some universal blue one special for Fedora could work?

amarok-2.0.90 podcasts broken
by Neal Becker 16 Apr '09

16 Apr '09

I just grabbed 2.0.90. It seems my podcast d/l don't work anymore. They appear to be configured correctly, but say '404 no such domain...'. I did right click/configure/copied the url to clipboard, and verified the url was OK.

kmix weirdness
by Orcan Ogetbil 16 Apr '09

16 Apr '09

Here is an interesting bug (or chain of multiple bugs). It's hard to describe them by words, so just follow these steps (I assume that you have vertical sliders and labels shown in kmix, and the kmix tray icon is at the right-most position on your panel, so if you have a clock there, just (re)move it temporarily): 1- Left click on kmix icon in the system tray. Click on Mixer. 2- Settings -> Configure Kmix -> Uncheck "Show Labels" -> Click OK At this point you should see the first bug: The window size doesn't shrink to the total width of the sliders, leaving a useless space on the right-hand side of the kmix window. 3- Enlarge the kmix window downwards, so the sliders are longer. 4- Click on the close button on top-right of the kmix window. It will dock into the tray 5- Left click on kmix icon in the system tray. Second bug: The menu that contains the main slider(s) and the Mixer button is off-screen. 6- But you can still click the Mixer button, which is halfway off-screen. Click on the Mixer button. Third bug (?): The window size is not remembered. I'm not sure if it is supposed to though. 7- Settings -> Configure Kmix -> Check "Show Labels" -> Click OK Fourth bug: Now, only some of the slider labels show up. This seems to me random. Sometimes certain labels show up, other times different ones do. To get all the slider labels show up, you will need to manually enlarge the window horizontally. If you dock kmix to tray and reopen it, those labels will still be missing. I don't remember having these issues prior to Qt4.5. But I may be wrong. Orcan
