Re: [Cooker] [Bug 1880] [kdebase] removable media icon crashes with kfm-client error message

[Texstar]

An easier fix is for Laurent to put 
/usr/share/applnk/System/kfmclient_dir.desktop in /usr/share/applnk-mdk/ 
instead of kfmclient.desktop. This fixes the trashcan and the removable media 
kdeinit  error. Atleast this works on my system.

Yep, I played with the kdenetwork rpm and I had to first fix the openslp rpm 
in contribs so that it would create the slpd.log in the correct place so the 
slpd  server would start properly then I built kdenetwork --with-slp option 
which will allow you to use the Networking -> Remote Access -> Remote Desktop 
Connection. I dont know if there is room for the openslp rpms in 9.1 or if 
Laurent even wants to mess with it at this point in time.

Deno basically said in a comment on mandrakeclub that 9.1 will be released as 
before, available to everyone.  I  posted "Oh man, I really hope Jaques will 
let the club members have first access, then wait until 9.1 is on the store 
shelves before he puts it on the mirrors for freebie downloads." 
 
 Deno responded:"Nope. He wants to have as many people as possible using the 
distro as fast as possible, in order to get more users, and make more money 
that way." 
 
Of course this could change at any time.

[Cooker] [Bug 3588] [libvorbis0] New: Noatun displays incorrect bitrate for OGG files

[texstar]

http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3588

   Product: libvorbis0
 Component: libvorbis0
   Summary: Noatun displays incorrect bitrate for OGG files
   Version: 1.0-6mdk
  Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
  Severity: normal
  Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


If you wondered why Noatun displays incorrect bitrate for OGG files, there is a bug in 
mandrake rpms of libvorbis. This bug was because of bug in gcc 3.2 that was used in 
Mandrake 9.0. But after Mandrake switched to gcc 3.2.2, they didn't recompile 
libvorbis rpm 
with new compiler. The fix is take src.rpm for mandrake and recompile it with gcc 
3.2.2.

Is that also the reason why the rpmrc file in 9.1 doesnt contain the 
additional optimization options that were present in the 9.0 rpmrc? No real 
increase in the speed of the applications?

Backing out patch16 and rebuilding the qt source rpms fixes the vnc problem but you

Both KDE and GNOME seem to be having trouble with Galaxy tightvnc-server-1.2.7-2.  It 
seems to be focused on Galaxy-KDE as explained later.

Fluxbox works just fine, just GNOME and KDE have exhibited issues.

KDE loads the wallpaper and then various components seem to go flashing by like a grey 
bar where the kicker is supposed to be.  Eventually ending up with a screen shot like 
this.

http://www.gkmweb.com/images/9.1-KDE_vnc.jpg

The desktop keeps flashing periodically.

GNOME has a similar behavior in that it flashes, but the desktop seems to load.  
Occasionally after one of the flashes, an error message pops up a dialogue box that 
says KDesktop error.  Sorry, i was not able to capture it.

I thought maybe the Galaxy theme had something to do with it, so I switched KDE to the 
Keramik theme, and it still exhibited this behavior, although the the error message 
and the flashing stopped occurring when GNOME was running.  So maybe it does belong to 
Galaxy, and that led me to post it here as a KDE-Galaxy bug.

vnc logs have nothing interesting in them and the system logs are equally bare on this 
issue.

What else can I do to help troubleshoot?

Move libsasl.a and libsasl.la out of your /usr/lib directory, and kdebase will build

I'm not sure but I was told that these are static libraries and kdebase
is built with -enabled-shared --disable-static.

Well I be it works!  I have an onboard via sound chip that uses the via82cXXX

[Cooker] [Bug 5547] [kdebase] New: kde logoff sound cut off

[[texstar]]

http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=5547

   Product: kdebase
 Component: kdebase
   Summary: kde logoff sound cut off
   Product: kdebase
   Version: 3.1.3-74mdk
  Platform: PC
   URL: http://www.kde.org
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
  Severity: minor
  Priority: P2
 Component: kdebase
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


This goes under fit and finish:

When logging out of kde the logoff sound gets cut off about halfway. A simple
fix it to add sleep 3 to startkde which gives kde time to play the sound.

echo 'startkde: Shutting down...'  1>&2
sleep 3
kdeinit_shutdown
dcopserver_shutdown
artsshell -q terminate

Why split it if no other application is going to use that applications

Lets take a simple application and split it into 3 rpms. One for the 
application, one for the library and one for the development libraries 
because thats the Mandrake way of doing things. Makes perfect sense to me.

Im not telling anyone how to package anything. I was asking a question as to 
why simple applications are being split into multiple rpms. I wanted to know 
why. If it makes it easier on the packagers when rebuilding for a different 
arch then its a good thing. If it was being done simply because it was the 
Mandrake way of doing things then it doesnt make sense.

I know Laurent isnt going to make any major revisions to the kde contained in 
RC-2 updated cooker so whatever is duplicated if any will be removed from the 
ibiblio directory and a hdlist will be generated following some kind of 
announcement on pclo once 9.2 is released.

If you guys do decide to include it keep an eye on the encryption 2.14 plugin 
as it seems to build encrypt not encrypt.so though I dont know why. I just 
did a :

#Fix encryption plugin

I thought you could blacklist libraries and binaries based on using the -b 
prefix in your /etc/prelink.conf file:

# If a file name is prefixed with `-b ', the file is black listed
#   and not tried to be prelinked (use for binary only distributions)

Example:

# glide
-b /usr/lib/libglide.so.2.53
-b /usr/bin/test3Dfx
-b /usr/lib/libtexus.so.1
-b /usr/lib/libtexus.so.1.1

Oh man, I reported this to Laurent like 2 or 3 times. All he needed to
do was to name them panels 1 and panels 2 and they both would show up in

Oh well, you can still configure them from the panel/taskbar menu.

 It appears that /usr/bin/startkde is scanning for netscape plugins at each

I've been using glibc 2.3 with Red Hat 8.0 and everything seems to be working 
fine here though I don't know what they are doing for their work around. I've 
been recompiling their source rpms and up until last night they were 
compiling fine though now I'm getting some recloc errors. The reason I was 
interested glibc 2.3 is due to the fact it is supposed to support prelinking 
for c++ apps to provide faster startup times for KDE apps. My experience so 
far has been disappointing. KDE in MDK 9.0 is just as fast.

Re: [Cooker] fontconfig docs?

[Texstar]

After you install fontconfig and Xft-2 ,edit your /etc/fonts/fonts.conf file 
and add 

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/drakfont/ttf

or where ever you have your ttf fonts installed. 

We've been playing with this for about a 3-4 weeks now.

Here's some screenshots I recently posted last week.

Ah! So that is where Gkrellm-2 and Pan are getting segfaults saying cant' load 
Blue Highway font! I had ended up removing the fonts-west_european earlier as 
a work around.

You probably want the one located here:

Re: [Cooker] Microsoft True Type Fonts for Contrib...

[Texstar]

We've been playing with it all afternoon on pclo and it works great! Nice job 
Ben. The only issue I had so far is if I recompile the source rpm with the 
tahoma font enabled, I get a recursion error when attempting it install the 
new rpm.

I'm not a contributor for Cooker, Cooker Contribs or Mandrake Club. There are 
more than enough people who do that. I provide updated apps and unique things 
for MDK 9.0. I build rpms for myself and share them with others. So you are 
right, my stuff doesn't really count here but it does with the users of mdk 
9.0.

uh right Ranger, unless you packaged pornview 0.1.0 within 30 minutes after it 
was announced on freshmeat then no you didnt package it before me. But it 
doesn't matter since my stuff doesn't count.

You are correct, it is a personal project page that has nothing to do with 
anything here just like many of the other pages people post up. I did try to 
cooperate at one time about a year ago. Not sure what happened but no big 
deal, I just posted my stuff on my website. If I continue to use this distro, 
I will probably hook up with plf after the first of the year.

Yep big time asking for it. Just wanna say your rpm has been a blessing. Many 
people have used it and not a problem one.

You upgraded your Mandrake 9.0 to Cooker or just the XFree86 and KDE rpms?
Xft2 is now part of XFree86 so if by chance you still have a Xft rpm installed 
on your system you dont need it anymore.
