Whee.  However:

GCC isn't going to build on HPPA because glibc is still screwed on HPPA.  
Hopefully that won't hold anything up any more than it has to

GCC didn't build on arm apparently because doxygen couldn't be installed 
(which doesn't make any sense)... hopefully that will be resolved very soon 
though.

Since gcc is finally fixed Madkiss can upload a Qt 3.2.1-5 to fix his
remaining RC bugs once gcc has built on all archs. Then I can build
KDE 3.1.4. After uploading new KDE I should be able to close all the
remaining RC bugs against the version in sid.

KDE 3 in testing status report?

2003-09-20 Thread Nathanael Nerode
The GCC bug has been fixed in the latest upload, today.

XFree86 4.2.1-11 seems to be new enough to handle everything.  

Bug 203303 is still out there.  However, losing kdemultimedia for a 
while sounds acceptable to me if the rest of it can get in.  Though a 
workaround is better.

It looks, unfortunately, as though the current version of QT is a mess
(qt-x11-free has 5 RC bugs).I hope that isn't a problem.  :-/

So what's the status of KDE 3 for sid and sarge now?  And what can we do 
to force it in, bugs or no bugs?  ;-)

I believe the installation instructions are in /usr/share/doc/
nvidia-kernel-source/README.Debian (shows you how to build & install the 
kernel module), /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx/README.Debian(short instructions on 
configuring X to use the nvidia driver with OpenGL (Linux doesn't use 
DirectDraw - that's a Windows thing, but has equivalents such as DGA, which 
will work when you have the driver working)) and /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx/
README.gz (NVidia's extensive, but not Debian-specific docs with lots of 
troubleshooting tips.)

How did you delete it?
Using the menu editor?

If yes, look into .kde/share/applnk in your home directory.
If there is an Internet subdirectory and you don't have any changes to 
entries within this submenu you want to keep, remove that directory.

You might have to restart KDE to see the changes.

Kevin

Check bugs.kde.org on a bugreport from Konqueror or KHTML describing that 
problem.
If there isn't, create one. If you can include a small testcase page and 
CSS, it is more likely it will be fixed faster.

Cheers,

There should be a checkbox for regularily checking mails on the settings 
page of the mail accounts.
Settings->Configure KMail->Network
Select the maildir account and click the "Edit" button.

i suggest you install the nvidia-glx-src and nvidia-kernel-src packages and
compile the drivers yourself. you'll need a driver for the kernel (kernel
module) and one for the xserver, iirc. after installation read the readmes in
/usr/share/nvidia-kernel-src/ and /usr/share/nvidia-glx-src/ which will guide
you through the process of building and installing the drivers.

good luck, or whatever you'll need ;-)

Xft2 + fontconfig can't work on KDE3.1.3

2003-09-20 Thread meiyisi meiyisi
I'm using Debian Sid now with XFree86 4.2.1 and
KDE3.1.3,QT3.2.1
While the problem is , if i don't load 'xtt' or
'freetype' in XFree86config-4, only relying on xft2 +
fontconfig displaying fonts,  seems that
/etc/fonts/fonts.conf doesn't work at all. I can not
find those fonts defined in the file in KDE control
center.
It 's weird , because in Gnome 2.2, xft2 works great.
Is there any diffenrence with the way that Gtk and 
Qt handles with xft2? 
Like this:
   Bitstream  Vera Sans
