Kpackagekit: unknown role type?
by Martin Kho 16 Jul '09

16 Jul '09

Hi, In the rawhide version of kpackagekit - 0.4.1.1-2.fc12.x86_64 - I get a messagebox named "Unknown role type - kpackagekit" that says "waiting for other tasks". The waiting is endless. In .xsession-errors I see: removing transaction from pool : "/47_eaaacdbe_data" removing transaction from pool : "/48_caddcedc_data" enumFromString ( State ) : converted "" to "UnknownState" , enum value 18 removing transaction from pool : "/49_ddbcaedb_data" enumFromString ( Action ) : converted "unknown" to "UnknownAction" , enum value 1073741824 enumFromString ( Action ) : converted "unknown" to "UnknownAction" , enum value 1073741824 enumFromString ( State ) : converted "" to "UnknownState" , enum value 18 enumFromString ( Action ) : converted "unknown" to "UnknownAction" , enum value 1073741824 enumFromString ( Action ) : converted "unknown" to "UnknownAction" , enum value 1073741824 Does anyone else see this? Martin Kho P.S. Rex, can I put this sort of - rawhide - questions on this list, or do I have to post them on the fedora-test list? Thanks.

kmix problem
by Neal Becker 10 Jul '09

10 Jul '09

When I plug in my external usb speakerphone (fm1083), it shows in kmix. But now (F11), I can't use kmix to set the mic volume. The slider doesn't work. It just jumps to zero and won't allow you to set it. If I open 'advanced audio control' I can set it, and the slider displayed by kmix simultaneously adjusts.

flags consolidation, Required? :)
by Rex Dieter 07 Jul '09

07 Jul '09

Looks like upstream will be consolidating use of "flags" (*), many of which are outside the use-case of locales, so looks like we'll have a good case of making these (currently kdebase-runtime-flags) a required part of the kde runtime.

Thunderbird Segfault/XDG_DATA_DIRS
by Bill McGonigle 07 Jul '09

07 Jul '09

Just getting a new F11 x86_64 machine going, and every time I try to click 'Install' in Thunderbird to install a new Add-On, I get a segfault. It crashes at: cache_glob_node_lookup_suffix and doing some googling, I found an old (c. 2006) FreeBSD discussion about this, and then it was isolated to folks using KDE and the environment variable: XDG_DATA_DIRS not being set to include gnome. So, I added '/usr/share/gnome' to the end of it, and voila, no more crashes. The claim at the time was that KDE was duplicating one of the path entries instead of adding gnome. So, I have a fix/workaround in hand, but this should probably be fixed more globally. I have no idea what to file a bug on, though, or where this should get set. Or perhaps there's some package that should have been installed but wasn't? I don't have this problem on i386, though that's on different hardware. -Bill -- Bill McGonigle, Owner Work: 603.448.4440 BFC Computing, LLC Home: 603.448.1668 http://www.bfccomputing.com/ Cell: 603.252.2606 Twitter, etc.: bill_mcgonigle Page: 603.442.1833 Email, IM, VOIP: bill(a)bfccomputing.com Blog: http://blog.bfccomputing.com/ VCard: http://bfccomputing.com/vcard/bill.vcf

kwin video record effect
by Ariel Constenla-Haile 06 Jul '09

06 Jul '09

Hi all, are there any plans to build (again?) the KWin video record effect? "again" means I hardly recall to have seen this on F10 (KDE 4.2.0?). I've tried everything to screencast my KDE desktop (with compositing active, on an NVidia graphics card), and nothing seems to work 100% other than the KWin video record effect. You can compare the results with the latest recordmydesktop (which has better composite support than previous versions): http://arielch.fedorapeople.org/videos/kwin_cube_recordmydesktop.ogv http://arielch.fedorapeople.org/videos/kwin_cube_kwinVideorecordEffect.ogg Regards -- Ariel Constenla-Haile La Plata, Argentina
