nntp (aka, usenet) client in kde?
by Gene Smith 07 Feb '20

07 Feb '20

I currently use t-bird with an nntp account pointing to gmane to read this list and sereral others. Does kde have an nntp client program of any sort? I don't see it as a possible new account type in kmail. Also, search with kpackagekit yields nothing with "usenet" or "nntp" that is kde specific. -gene

Dolphin partition names
by Roderick Johnstone 03 Nov '10

03 Nov '10

Hi Fedora 12, x86_64, kde 4.4.5. I have some unmounted partitions which show up in the Places pane in Dolphin labelled with their volume label. I changed the volume label, but Dolphin still shows them with the old label. I tried logging out and in again but the partitions still show with the old volume labels. Any suggestions as to how I get Dolphin to show these partitions with the new volume labels?? Thanks Roderick

kde-4.5.2 for f13 (and f12)
by Rex Dieter 28 Oct '10

28 Oct '10

Official kde-4.5.2 f13 updates have been prepped and built, and are now in our kde-testing repos. These will be queue'd for official updates-testing soon. See also, http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2010-October/144532.html *UN*official kde-4.5.2 f12 updates have also been done. The main difference between prior builds as that this latest batch has been done on fedora's buildsys(koji), so we're also able to provide ppc builds as well. In order to make this initial kde-4.5 update process faster and smoother, we (I) choose not to include anything qt-4.7-related yet. That will come later, we promise. :) so, as usual, test test test, feedback feedback feedback, and enjoy. -- Rex

Microblogging plasmoid not working
by Rolf Offermanns 27 Oct '10

27 Oct '10

Hi All, on F13 running KDE-4.5.2 I am not able to get the Microblogging plasmoid to show my Twitter timeline (or anything else from Twitter). I started the plasmoid in the plasmoidviewer and get the following output on the console: plasmoidviewer(5102): Hashing algo not supported, update your QCA The plasmoid works fine on my Ubuntu system. Any ideas? Thanks, Rolf

New optional build dependency for KDE trunk: hupnp
by Eike Hein 25 Oct '10

25 Oct '10

Just a quick notice that Solid in KDE trunk has gained a new optional build dependency that Fedora currently doesn't carry: hupnp, used by the UPnP backend. Given that it's Fedora policy to try and cater to KDE development by providing the dependencies, that might be nice to add. On another note, I've noticed that kdeplasma-addons doesn't have a build dependency on scim-devel, which is one of the backends used by the kimpanel plasmoid. Is that intentional? (I'm fairly clueless about kimpanel, I just noticed the missing dep on CMake output after doing yum-builddep for kdeplasma-addons.) -- Best regards, Eike Hein

HEADS UP: KDE/Qt update intentions in Fedora 13 (RFC)
by Jaroslav Reznik 21 Oct '10

21 Oct '10

Hi (from the evil KDE SIG;-), we're going to update KDE Plasma Workspaces in Fedora 13 to 4.5.x series. It took some time but we're now pretty sure that it's in a good condition. The question is (we agreed on KDE SIG meeting yesterday) - should we update Qt to 4.7 too or build KDE stack with current 4.6 series? As there are a few Qt packages outside of KDE SIG/Qt maintainers scope, we'd like to hear any objections against update - bugs we can fix etc. Qt 4.7 is quite well tested, thanks to work on Fedora 14 (Qt 4.7 is already included) and a lot of users are actually using this combination in Fedora 13. If I put on my Fedora WebKit SIG hat - there are two big +++ for update: 1. newer QtWebKit makes browser's user experiences much more better 2. it's going to be much more easier to backport security issues to Fedora 13 and we care of security issues - WebKit can be quite vulnerable... Most changes in Qt 4.7 are in mobile development area and new features like Qt Quick. On the other hand, it could slow down KDE update and it will need more rebuilds. Is it worth? Any objections from Qt devels? Please comment...

reusing mount points
by Dj YB 21 Oct '10

21 Oct '10

Hello, when plugging in a USB device it is automounted, all good. however sometimes the mount point (e.g /media/usb-device) is not deleted, usually when there was no proper unmount. then when I insert the same device again it is mounted in a new mount point (e.g /media/usb-device-1) my question is, is there a way to force using the same mount point even if the directory already exists? Thanks in advance, YB.
