Very long login/logout times
by Colin J Thomson 25 Jul '09

25 Jul '09

Hi, As the Subj says and it has been getting progressively worse during the 4.3-rc series, long as in up to ~30 seconds to reach the login screen when logging out, starting kde takes a very long time also from the initial splash ~ 30-40 seconds. Any suggestions how to debug this? KDE-4.3 RC2 / F11 Colin -- Fedora (F11 Leonidas) Registered Linux user number #342953

KDE 4.3RC3 (4.2.98)
by Clive Messer 25 Jul '09

25 Jul '09

I've just updated my f11 to KDE 4.3RC3 from kde-unstable. Seem to be missing kdebase-4.2.98 packages? kgpg is now starting minimised - which is good. Regards Clive -- Clive Messer <clive(a)vacuumtube.org.uk>

KDE 4.2.98 and Konqueror: timeout problem
by Dmitrij S. Kryzhevich 25 Jul '09

25 Jul '09

Hi! There is a problem with Konqueror: some pages are not opened from fist time with "Timeout error". More extended. When I open in new Tab some pages, for example, from https://fedorahosted.org/web/index I tried to open https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-kde-artwork/, I get at exactly that moment "Timeout error" with some explonations about: === Timeout for establishing a connection: 20 seconds Timeout for receiving a response: 600 seconds Timeout for accessing proxy servers: 10 seconds === Sure, those timeoutes are not exceeded, there is less then 1 sec. After couple of Refreshes (green cycle button or F5) in is opening normal. Upto next time. which could be _next_ time. --- Regards, Dmitrij S. Kryzhevich

missing Icons
by Colin J Thomson 25 Jul '09

25 Jul '09

Hi, A nice smooth update as usual :) I notice some missing Icons (the text labels are there) in Akregator's toolbar which is running in Kontact, forward, back delete stop and refresh. Running Akregator on its own all is well. I'll go search kde.bugs, but wonder if anyone else is seeing this. Cheers Colin -- Fedora (F11 Leonidas) Registered Linux user number #342953

Kopete doesn't work with Bonjour
by Arthur Pemberton 25 Jul '09

25 Jul '09

I'm not usually one to complain, but 100% reproducible crashes with (as of yet) no useful KCrashes is kind of bad. I wanted to play around with Bonjour. I added an account in Kopete, no problem. I remoted to another machine and installed and setup Pidgin for the same purpose. As soon as Pidgin comes online, Kopete crashes. I reload Kopete, and try to bring the bonjor account online. Kopete crashes immediately again. This suggests to me that Bonjor simply wasn't tested on at least this version of Kopete, kdepim-4.2.4-1.fc10.i386 BTW, is there a way to keep the debuginfo files up to date with yum? I always seem to have to do a debuginfo-install Also, are KCrash reports ever useful without the debug packages installed? I eventually install Pidgin to continue my experiment. -- Fedora 10 (www.pembo13.com)

The Device Notifier
by Richard Heck 24 Jul '09

24 Jul '09

Hi, I'm trying to write a little desktop file that will allow me just to mount newly inserted devices, rather than to open them with Dolphin. I can see roughly how to do this, but have two questions: (i) Is there some local place one can put such files, instead of /usr/share/kde4/apps/solid/actions/? I've tried putting the file in .kde/share/kde4/apps/solid/actions/, but that didn't work, and I also tried .kde/share/apps/solid/actions/. (ii) How on earth would one go about just mounting the device? Is there some call to hal or whatever that can be made? Cheers, Richard

Switching display resolution
by Anne Wilson 24 Jul '09

24 Jul '09

Is there a quick method of switching display resolution? I'm thinking of user-enabled, for when an external display is attached. It used to be possible to have an Xrandr icon in the tray but that doesn't seem to be an option now. Anne -- New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org Just found a cool new feature? Add it to UserBase

by Ariel Constenla-Haile 24 Jul '09

Hi all, if you miss in KDE 4 the preview of ODF (Open Document Format) files in Konqueror/Dolphin, you may want to try http://arielch.fedorapeople.org/devel/src/OpenOfficeorgThumbnail-0.0.1.tar.… (sources, you have to build them yourself; kdelibs-devel required) For Fedora i586 I've made a package (warning: first one I've ever made!): http://arielch.fedorapeople.org/devel/rpm/i586/openofficeorgthumbnail-0.0.1… Regards -- Ariel Constenla-Haile La Plata, Argentina
