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

Can't logout of kde 4.8
by freeslkr 28 Feb '12

28 Feb '12

I can't logout/restart/shut down from a KDE session. Nothing happens. I'm on Fedora 16 with the kde48 repo enabled. I've tried it running kdm and gdm. I can logout of a GNOME session running either display manager. I've recently upgraded from Fedora 14, and this hasn't worked since the upgrade. I can suspend and switch user. Is anyone else having this problem, or does anyone have ideas? Thank you.

Wayward printer setting
by Anne Wilson 28 Feb '12

28 Feb '12

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 My printer is set up to have two profiles - one for every day duplex printing, and one for 2-up printing, since we don't have full brochure printing ability. I recently used the second profile, and since then I find that the flip is set to short-side every time I start to use the first profile. Hplip says it is set to long-edge. System Settings > Printer Configuration says it is set to long-edge. The print-job pop-up says it is set to long-edge CUPS says it is set to long-edge So where on earth can it be finding the short-edge setting?

A question about "focus follows mouse"
by George R Goffe 28 Feb '12

28 Feb '12

Hi, I'm running with "system settings -> window behavior -> focus follows mouse" and am having problems with the focus sometimes NOT being the widget where the mouse pointer is located. I have alt-up set to raise a widget and alt-down to toggle up/down behavior. Am I misunderstanding how this setting should work. When I raise/lower widgets, the focus does NOT always follow the mouse. Thanks, George... "It's not what you know that hurts you, It's what you know that ain't so." Will Rogers...

kontact make me creazy
by Mario Santagiuliana 24 Feb '12

24 Feb '12

Hi to all, I am using kontact/kmail to manage my emails accounts. I have a lot of data to manage, I have a lot of filter to apply to my emails. Before kmail2 no problems, nothing! From kmail2 kde and kontact are impossible to use. Kmail2 use akonadi and all time I open kontact I need to wait 5-10 minutes before I can see one email. mysqld use all my cpu too much times. I am on laptop, if I am using battery it is better for me to don't open kmail and view my emails because the cpu is nearly all the time at 100% usage from mysqld akonadi and akonadi_nepomuk (I don't enable nepomunk on systemsettings, I don't need it). Every time kmail auto-downloading emails from server I have a windows that asking me how to resolve a conflict of downloaded emails. I don't understand how to resolve all of these issues. I am using kde-pim 4.7.4. Have you got any suggestion? -- Mario Santagiuliana www.marionline.it

Hi, After loggin a nasty message is telling ConsoleKit is missing. Installing ConsoleKit alone isn't enough. The ConsoleKit-x11 package 'kills' the message. Martin Kho
