selinux errors when selinux is disabled?
by Gerald B. Cox 27 Jul '16

27 Jul '16

I opened this bug report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1360905 but was wondering if anyone else had seen this behavior. I have selinux disabled, but when installing chromium, I get deluged with these errors: SELinux: Could not downgrade policy file /etc/selinux/targeted/policy/policy.30, searching for an older version. SELinux: Could not open policy file <= /etc/selinux/targeted/policy/policy.30: No such file or directory /sbin/load_policy: Can't load policy: No such file or directory libsemanage.semanage_reload_policy: load_policy returned error code 2.

New audio issues on 5.7.1
by Raman Gupta 27 Jul '16

27 Jul '16

I have a new audio issue with KDE on 5.7.1 which is a regression from 5.6.5. I have created this bug on the KDE tracker for this: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=366149. Is there a workaround for this? Copy of the bug report follows: I have an Intel-HDA card with PulseAudio 7.1.1 on Fedora 23. My card is hooked up to both my external speakers as well as a headset. I can switch the audio from headset to speakers by using the commands: ``` pactl set-card-profile alsa_card.pci-0000_00_1b.0 output:analog-surround-40+input:analog-stereo pactl set-sink-port alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-surround-40 analog-output-lineout amixer -c $CARD sset "Auto-Mute Mode" Disabled amixer -c $CARD sset 'Headphone',1 100 mute ``` and vice-versa: ``` pactl set-card-profile alsa_card.pci-0000_00_1b.0 output:analog-stereo+input:analog-stereo pactl set-sink-port alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo analog-output-headphones amixer -c $CARD sset "Auto-Mute Mode" Enabled amixer -c $CARD sset 'Headphone',1 100 unmute ``` As of Plasma 5.7.1, the above commands still work, but KDE seems to lose its connection to PulseAudio when they are run. In `.xsession-errors`, immediately upon the switch I see: org.kde.plasma.pulseaudio: No object for name "alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-surround-40" After that point, I cannot, use the volume up/down/mute keys successfully. Though moving the sliders in the pulse-pa applet does still work. A restart of plasma restores the connection to pulseaudio and restores the up/down/mute key functionality. Regards, Raman

Thanks everyone for all the testing a feedback, just now we've queue'd kf5-5.24.0 and plasma-5.7.1 for f23/f24 stable updates. That means I can start work on sending plasma-5.7.2 to -testing. Notable bugs fixed: * kwin default decoration back to breeze (from plastique) -- Rex

Only the default decoration changed... perhaps you had manually set the decoration at some point? -- Rex ________________________________________ From: Reindl Harald <h.reindl(a)thelounge.net> Sent: Monday, July 25, 2016 9:36 AM To: kde(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Subject: Re: Latest KDE updates -- WTF happened?

Latest KDE updates -- WTF happened?
by Mark Haney 25 Jul '16

25 Jul '16

I just updated my F24 box and there were apparently a bunch of KDE related updates. (Not sure which, exactly.) When I rebooted (because bloody plasmashell was taking 80% CPU, again) the interface is all jacked up. For example, what's with the little button next to the program icon in the upper left hand corner? It appears to do absolutely nothing when I click it. Also, why does the text in the title bar of a window (like Chrome) that's not in focus looked all greyed out and illegible? Is there any way to change the settings back to something that doesn't suck? -- Mark Haney ::: Senior Systems Engineer *VIF* *International Education* P.O.

kwrite "show scrollbar mini-map"
by Glenn Holmer 24 Jul '16

24 Jul '16

I just applied the most recent patches on F24 KDE, and everything seems groovy except for kwrite: in the main menu, View / Borders / Show Scrollbar Mini-Map is always on, even after I turn it off. Anyone else seeing this? -- Glenn Holmer (Linux registered user #16682) "After the vintage season came the aftermath -- and Cenbe."

KDE Handbooks
by Timothy Murphy 20 Jul '16

20 Jul '16

KMail and Kontact do not seem to provide their Handbooks on my laptop (Fedora-24/KDE), although they are available online. Can I find a Fedora package or RPM with the Handbooks? Alternatively, where exactly are the KDE Handbooks stored? I have the KNode Handbook on the laptop, but couldn't find where it is kept. ("lsof | grep -ir knode" found nothing, with the Handbook open. Is there a way of finding out where a page one is looking at is stored?) I guess if I knew that, I could download the online ones, and access them by clicking on the Help button. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin
