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

KDE 4.11.00 intermittently forgets various plasmoids & desktop settings
by Steven P. Ulrick 09 Nov '13

09 Nov '13

Hello, Everyone Lately after I logout of KDE and then log back in, my desktop background is sometimes changed to something that I did NOT have as my background, and all of my Plasmoids are gone... Here is a screenshot of how my desktop is NOT supposed to look: http://afolkey2.us/gallery3/index.php/Assorted/KDE4_11_00-Desktop-Screensho… Here is a screenshot of how my desktop is supposed to look: http://afolkey2.us/gallery3/index.php/Assorted/KDE4_11_00-Desktop-Screensho… I didn't feel like waiting until KDE loaded my desktop correctly, so I rebooted... This is on Fedora 19. KDE version is 4.11.0. Yes, that's from kde-unstable. If you can help me figure out what is wrong, I can file a bug report. Steven P. Ulrick

4.11.1 / kopete / facebookchat
by Reindl Harald 02 Nov '13

02 Nov '13

anybody except me which can't connect to facebookchat any longer on F19 with 4.11.1 while XMPP/Jabber in fact works because it happily connects to our internal prosody server? the facebook connection always says "connecting" in kopete while netstat shows it *is* connected but refuse to talk for whatever reason

virtuoso taking too much cpu time
by José Abílio Matos 01 Nov '13

01 Nov '13

For the last month or so I am having the problem that virtuoso-t is hogging the cpu even when file and email indexing are suspended. My main issue was that mail reading under kmail got really slow and while searching on the net for it I did not got any clue of how to see what virtuoso was doing and how to fix this issue. Today I deactivated desktop search in system settings and now reading email got fast (and usable) again. I am writing this message hoping that someone has an hint how to fix/debug this. Regards, -- José Abílio

cmake Qt4 experiment in rawhide
by Orion Poplawski 26 Oct '13

26 Oct '13

cmake's UseQt4 module automatically adds linkage for "dependent" modules when requesting certain module usage. This caused at least one case of over-linkage for plplot (linking in QtXml when it used QtSvg). I've just built a new cmake for rawhide that completely disbles this functionality. This means that if a program makes direct use of a Qt module it would need to ask for it (e.g. with set(QT_USE_QTXML 1)). I'm curious to know what if anything breaks with this. Please let me know if a package of yours no longer builds with this change. FWIW - I've rebuilt kdelibs and digikam locally as smoke tests with no problem. But I'll be happy to revert if it causes too much grief. -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 NWRA, Boulder/CoRA Office FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.nwra.com

Persecuted by akonadi
by Timothy Murphy 24 Oct '13

24 Oct '13

I'm currently being inundated by endless akonadi messages, all of which are completely incomprehensible to me, eg ------------------------------ akonadi_nepomuk_feeder(6765) ItemQueue::removeDataResult: "No such object path '/datamanagement'" akonadi_nepomuk_feeder(6765) ItemQueue::batchJobResult: Error while storing graph: "No such object path '/datamanagement'" Nepomuk search service not available! [repeated 20 times] AkonadiAgentServer(6760)/kio (KDirWatch) KDirWatchPrivate::removeEntry: doesn't know "/home/tim/.local/share/.local-mail.directory/trash" [repeated 80 times] ------------------------------ Couldn't akonadi at least stop sending the same message repeatedly? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland

qt5 update?
by Peter G. 20 Oct '13

20 Oct '13

Are there any procedures involved in updating the system from qt4 to qt5 in Fedora 19; or will yum update do it automatically (so far, nothing happened, but maybe the mirrors are not yet up-to-date)?

KMail "Retrieving Folder Contents
by Timothy Murphy 08 Oct '13

08 Oct '13

Sometimes I get the message "Retrieving Folder Contents Please wait" when reading email on on KMail (under Fedora-19). Nothing happens after this. If I close KMail and re-open it, the message is still there. Even if I log out (Ctrl-Alt-Backspace) and login again, the message remains. The only solution I have found is to re-boot the machine. Has anyone else met this problem? It occurs every 2 or 3 days, so it is not fatal. But it is rather annoying. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland

But this time, the plasmoids, desktop background & other settings were gone AFTER logging in after a reboot... Rebooting used to be how I got all of that back... But I tried something new. I logged out, and then logged back in the KDE "Safe Session" Doing that, my desktop looked just like it is supposed to: http://afolkey2.us/gallery3/index.php/Assorted/KDE4_11_00-Desktop-Screensho… Unfortuately, when I log out of the safe session, and back into a regular KDE session, it looks like this again: http://afolkey2.us/gallery3/index.php/Assorted/KDE4_11_00-Desktop-Screensho… If you need any information that I am not providing, just let me know and I will get that to you.
