Bluetooth battery levels
by Patrick O'Callaghan 09 Jul '15

09 Jul '15

Recently I had to log into Gnome 3 (don't ask) and noticed to my surprise that the Bluetooth widget showed the remaining battery charge on my mouse. Anyway, is there a way to do this in KDE? I'd also be interested in reading the level on my BT headphones. poc

Frequent crashes in kdeinit5
by Patrick O'Callaghan 09 Jul '15

09 Jul '15

I often find that kdeinit5 reports a crash when I log out. Today the same thing happened when I right-clicked on a window title and selected Special Window Settings (the crash happened when I closed the pop-up). The error says: We are sorry, kdeinit5 closed unexpectedly. You cannot report this error, because kdeinit5 does not provide a bug reporting address. Details: Executable: kdeinit5 PID: nnnn: Aborted (6) Time dd.mm.yyyy hh:mm:ss There is a "Debug" option which fails thus: Reading symbols from /usr/bin/kdeinit5...Reading symbols from /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/kdeinit5.debug...done. done. Attaching to program: /usr/bin/kdeinit5, process 9024 ptrace: Operation not permitted. (gdb) So we have: 1) No way to copy the error text except manually, which I just did. 2) No bug reporting address. 3) Failing gdb, presumably because kdeinit5 runs as root and not the actual user. I had previously added a comment to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=349651, but I'm not sure that's even the right bug report. Suggestions welcome. poc

Lagging behavior
by Ed Greshko 09 Jul '15

09 Jul '15

I can't predict when this will happen and I've not been able to capture any meaningful information. But has anyone seen the following? At times I click on a tab in a browser, or click on the calendar tab of thunderbird, or type in a konsole window and nothing happens. Then as soon as I change to another window, the click I've previously done takes effect. I have "focus Under Mouse" set and "raise on hover" set. -- Sorta what I want to say when folks habitually complain about Fedora - https://youtu.be/ZArl8fTfub4

dvratil-plasma-5 on f21: dependency problems

Hi, there seem to be some inconsistencies regarding kf5-activities from fedora-updates (f21) and the copr repo, see below.

F22 comments
by Patrick O'Callaghan 05 Jul '15

05 Jul '15

Just installed F22 using fedup from F21. See the Users list for a couple of general comments. Regarding KDE: 1) The Plasma session restore bug is still present. 2) SDDM is still broken (no gnome-key support) so I use KDM. Luckily it still works on F22. 3) I get a crash report on each login from kf5-kactivities. I have no use for Activies in Plasma but the package can't be removed because of Plasma dependencies. poc

newbie questions
by Sérgio Basto 05 Jul '15

05 Jul '15

Hi, I need to be sure. In Fedora 22 with plasma 5 , is not possible start up kde-plasma 4 ? or use plasmoids for plasma 4 ? I'm looking for smb4k.spec [1], I have done a sub-package kde-plasma-smb4k , but is not useful on Fedora 22 , isn't it ? Another question to build packages for plasma 5 , we need BuildRequires: kdelibs5-devel or what ? [1] http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/smb4k.git/tree/smb4k.spec Thanks, -- Sérgio M. B.
