Fedora 18, lose wireless WEP connection, cannot enter passphrase when prompted.
by Victor B. Gonzalez 15 Jul '12

15 Jul '12

Hello, I have this issue where I set up a wireless (system) connection using WEP. The wireless works when it works but at some point, I get a prompt to re-enter the passphrase *but* no matter what I do, I can't enter anything. This request from secrets locks me out completely and is annoying because the only way I know how to solve it, is to reboot. Fedora is completely up to date using KDE 4.8.4. I'm not sure what to do *but* I am convinced the problem is in the network manager. Thank you for your time. -- Best Regards Victor B. Gonzalez

route sound to bluetooth headset?
by Neal Becker 12 Jul '12

12 Jul '12

I know I've gotten it to work on F16 (and recall it took some digging), but so far no luck on F17. My bluetooth stereo headphone connects OK. I go to system settings/Phonon, and choose my headset as higher priority for Music and Communication. But sound still comes from the internal laptop speakers, not the headset. Tested with amarok.

libqzeitgeist & zeitgeist
by Fl＠sh 10 Jul '12

10 Jul '12

Begin in : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=835852 Still can not figure out why the maintainer libqzeitgeist not concerned that ordinary users do not have the opportunity to not use unnecessary functionality for them (meaning the zeitgeist). Now the situation is that users do not even have the opportunity to remove the zeitgeist, but in fact should be the opposite: users wishing to use the zeitgeist, should to install it yourself. It's not just that, so you can easily disable the zeitgeist graphically, but the fact that the zeitgeist is optional, and should be to installed yourself, not without your knowledge. -- Fl@sh

KMail/IMAP cannot add top-level folder
by Timothy Murphy 10 Jul '12

10 Jul '12

When I click on a top-level account in KMail on an IMAP client, the File->New->Add Folder option is greyed out, although it is available to create a sub-folder of an existing folder. I know I can create a new folder by creating a subdirectory .<whatever> in ~/Maildir on the IMAP server; but is this really the only way? Also: is there any way of re-ordering the folders in KMail ? I created a new folder in the above fashion, but it is listed out of alphabetical order. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College Dublin

FYI: virtuoso-opensource
by Martin Airs 07 Jul '12

07 Jul '12

Good day all, Since updating to KDE 4.8.95 I noticed that nepomuk searching had stopped working, since nepomuk has always been something I've only played with and never really relied upon I never mentioned it. However I have now got it working again by downgrading virtuoso-opensource from virtuoso-opensource-6.1.5-2 to virtuoso-opensource-6.1.4-4 download the 6.1.4 version from koji at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=294180 get virtuoso-opensource and virtuoso-opensource-apps, and then yum downgrade /path/to/virtuoso-*.rpm there are no dependencies to worry about either then disable/enable desktop search and virtuoso should reindex and then dolphin and krunner should now find your indexed documents.

by Martin Kho 05 Jul '12

Hi, I saw [1] that ktp since 4.0 got the history browser feature. Can someone tell me were I can find this browser? telepathy-logger and telepathy-logger-qt are installed. Thanks, Martin Kho [1] http://martys.typepad.com/blog/2012/06/kde-telepathy-04-with-audiovideo- calls-and-chat-log-browser.html

Coordinating https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/InitialExperience with firsboot, anaconda
by Miloslav Trmač 05 Jul '12

05 Jul '12

Hello, it seems that not all relevant parties have been talking to each other; if anyone else should be involved, please add them. In short, a new Fedora feature https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/InitialExperience was proposed, replacing firstboot for the GNOME spin (only) and integrating per-system and per-user configuration. The original suggestion was for non-GNOME spins (including the DVD installation) would continue using firsboot. Now it turns out that anaconda plans to do more setup during the initial installation (including setting up the clock and adding an initial user), perhaps making all of firstboot unnecessary on non-live installations. OTOH for live-{CD,DVD} installations, the same clock/user screens would be displayed in firstboot, sharing the code; if "initial experience" plans to support firstboot screens, this (and the presumed firstboot module API changes) would affect it. Can you all talk to each other and figure out a definite plan, please? The integrated nature of IE goes against the "one installed system with multiple installed desktop environments" concept, which is sort of acceptable as long as both IE and firsboot have active maintainers, but asking the user about the same things both in anaconda and IE wouldn't do. * Which settings/screens happen in anaconda? * Which settings/screens move between anaconda and firsboot/IE (and using what mechanism)? * Which settings/screens happen both in firstboot and IE (and on which installation paths)? What code will be shared? * Which settings will be governed by each desktop environment individually? How does the transition between per-system and per-user settings happen if IE doesn't want the user to log in during the process? * Which parts of the GNOME stack will have to be installed on non-GNOME spins, or from the installation DVD when installing a non-GNOME desktop only? (and other things that I might have forgotten) Thank you, Mirek
