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

Kate not installed by default on Fedora 16
by Sonic 15 Jun '12

15 Jun '12

Hi.. I just found out that Kate was not installed by default on Fedora 16 even though I had selected 'KDE Software Development' during installation. KDevelop is installed, but not Kate. Was this a concious decision or a mistake? regards, Syam

tracker in KDE
by Martin (KDE) 01 Mar '12

01 Mar '12

Hallo Yesterday I upgraded from F15 to F16. This went smoothly (almost) but after the restart there were ugly processes running and tacking much of the CPU power: tracker-* AFAIK these processes are the "nepomuk" part of gnome and I don't need them. Why are the tracker processes activated in a typical KDE environment? Martin

Downgrading KDEPIM
by John Aldrich 31 Jan '12

31 Jan '12

Can I add the F15 repos and downgrade KMail? I REALLY don't like KMail 2. It's slower than molasses at the North Pole in January and it's a huge resource hog to boot. I absolutely HATE the new version and if I can't go back to a version that works, I'll have to find a new email client! :(

Fedora KDE Live Media installer still not available in non-english language (F15 version)
by Christian González 24 Jan '12

24 Jan '12

I've reported this problem 2 years ago: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=541055 The problem is still present in F15 KDE Spin. ¿Could we please find some kind of solution? Again, I'm willing to help in any way, but I think that this problem must be priorized by the KDE SIG, especially since Anaconda devs have stated that they will not fix the problem (see comment 6). Kevin Kofler suggested to create a kdialog wrapper. Is it possible? I think even I can help with that part of the solution.

by Genes MailLists 30 Dec '11

30 Dec '11

I did a fresh install with kde4 - and I want to copy the networkmanager applet connections from another laptop - can someone tell me which files to copy from old to new laptop so it has the same already working wireless and wired networks setup? thanks. I looked in ~/.kde/share/apps/networkmanagement which has: (I don't have a ~/.kde4 directory) /connections - empty directory /secrets - has uuid like file names each with psk=<passwords> but i cannot find the list of connections - even tho I found the passphrases I had the plasmoid set to store as plain text. thanks for any help ... gene

Nepomuk File Indexing Service Not Running
by Ed Greshko 27 Dec '11

27 Dec '11

Hi, This is a fully updated F16 system running KDE. "Nepomuk File Indexing Service Not Running" is the status that appears when I hover over the Neomuk icon in the SysTray. Additionally, if I bring up the "System Setting" application and choose "Desktop Search" the "System Settings" application will hang. Obviously something got borked. How can I either track down what is borked or what can I safely delete to reinitialize the Nepomuk system? Thanks, Ed -- A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof was to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools. -- Douglas Adams in "Mostly Harmless
