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

Is K on 32 bit Rawhide working for anyone?
by Felix Miata 26 Feb '15

26 Feb '15

It hasn't worked for me since before 22 branched, on at least a half dozen installations including Intel, ATI and NVidia. KDM works, but beyond that is only a black screen, mouse pointer, and eventually a popup reporting a krunner crash. Skipping KDM and trying startx is no better. .xsession-errors is empty. Is there anything in http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/F/xorg.0.log-gx27b-f23-201502251943 that says why? Any known obstacle to X in Rawhide? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg.

kde problems on EL6
by Orion Poplawski 24 Feb '15

24 Feb '15

New installs of EL6 with kde-redhat stable are failing with a conflict between samba4-common and samba-common. It appears that kdenetwork-fileshare-samba requires "samba4" which pulls in samba4-common. Meanwhile cifs-utils -> samba-winbind -> samba-common. So, does kdenetwork-fileshare-samba really require "samba4" or would "samba" suffice? -- 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

akonadi console
by Timothy Murphy 22 Feb '15

22 Feb '15

I used to have an akonadi console icon, which came up when I typed "akonadi" in f->Applications. I assumed it had disappeared until I read "I just had a go at adding top level IMAP folders in akonadiconsole, and it works fine" in a recent post from a KDE user. I used to employ it when KMail brought up the message "Retrieving Folder Contents Please wait" which otherwise continues waiting indefinitely. I take it from the posting above that akonadiconsole still exists? If so how can I access it. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin

User switching broken
by Patrick O'Callaghan 20 Feb '15

20 Feb '15

I have Plasma-5 and SDDM under F21. Switching sessions to another (test) user, also with Plasma, works. Switching back again gives flashing display garbage and the session is unusable. The problem appears to be with switching to VT1, not to the content of the sessions as such (i.e. if I start the sessions in the reverse order the same problem happens). I have an Nvidia card with the proprietary driver. I tried reporting this to bugs.kde.org but there doesn't seem to be a category for SDDM, which I would think is the culprit. poc

power notifications no longer working

I seem to no longer have working power notifications or auto hibernate on low battery on F21 + updates-testing. Any one else seeing this? -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 NWRA/CoRA Division FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)cora.nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.cora.nwra.com

F22 black screen instead of KDM/KDE
by Felix Miata 13 Feb '15

13 Feb '15

Anyone else still using KDM? Now instead of black screen on X exit[1], I get only a black screen always, and same thing without KDM running, using startx instead. This is a Socket A system with NV11 gfxchip using nouveau X driver.

KDE SIG Badge
by Ralph Bean 11 Feb '15

11 Feb '15

Hello all, A new Fedora badge has been proposed for "membership in the KDE SIG": https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-badges/ticket/132 As far as I can see, there is not a formal definition of membership in the group. Some options for awarding the badge: - We could create a new FAS group and trigger the badge awarding off of that. Lots of other badges work this way, so it is easy to do. The only downside is that you have a FAS group with no other real purpose than for handing out badges. It has to be maintained, pruned eventually, etc.. - Or, instead, we could take one or two volunteers from the SIG to be 'in charge' of the badge. There is a self-service interface in the webapp where they could manually award the badge to sig members as they see fit. I'd like to do it however the sig wants it done. Can you hash it out and let the badges crew know by posting back in the trac ticket above? Cheers- -Ralph
