RE: kde 3.0 no icons
I'm submitting a bug report to KDE to gather more information. I can reproduce this bug when I put my graphics card into 32 bit color mode, but I need to know if any user out there with a graphics card capable of 24 bit color mode has this problem when they are in 24 bit color mode. Please respond ASAP if you can tell me whether or not 24 bit color produces the same problem of no icons in KDE 3. hi.. I've just discovered this bug when I upgraded to KDE 3 (and spent ages installing every single KDE package, thinking I was missing the icons :-( ) Switching to 24 bit truecolor (instead of my default 32 bit truecolor) has fixed the problem. Using XVision on the 32 bit display meant that the pictures displayed OK (there are other bugs in XVision though!). I suspect that the fact that XVision doesn't offer 32 bit pixmaps is what makes the difference. xdpyinfo output for cygwin XFree86 on a 24 bit display: name of display:cleveland:0.0 version number:11.0 vendor string:The XFree86 Project, Inc vendor release number:4020 XFree86 version: 4.2.0 maximum request size: 4194300 bytes motion buffer size: 256 bitmap unit, bit order, padding:32, LSBFirst, 32 image byte order:LSBFirst number of supported pixmap formats:7 supported pixmap formats: depth 1, bits_per_pixel 1, scanline_pad 32 depth 4, bits_per_pixel 8, scanline_pad 32 depth 8, bits_per_pixel 8, scanline_pad 32 depth 15, bits_per_pixel 16, scanline_pad 32 depth 16, bits_per_pixel 16, scanline_pad 32 depth 24, bits_per_pixel 24, scanline_pad 32 depth 32, bits_per_pixel 32, scanline_pad 32 keycode range:minimum 8, maximum 255 focus: window 0x1600017, revert to PointerRoot number of extensions:22 BIG-REQUESTS DEC-XTRAP DOUBLE-BUFFER Extended-Visual-Information FontCache GLX LBX MIT-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD RANDR RECORD RENDER SECURITY SGI-GLX SHAPE SYNC TOG-CUP XC-APPGROUP XC-MISC XFree86-Bigfont XKEYBOARD XTEST XVideo default screen number:0 number of screens:1 screen #0: dimensions:1146x811 pixels (388x275 millimeters) resolution:75x75 dots per inch depths (7):24, 1, 4, 8, 15, 16, 32 root window id:0x36 depth of root window:24 planes number of colormaps:minimum 1, maximum 1 default colormap:0x20 default number of colormap cells:256 preallocated pixels:black 0, white 16777215 options:backing-store NO, save-unders NO largest cursor:1146x811 current input event mask:0xd84031 KeyPressMask EnterWindowMask LeaveWindowMask KeymapStateMask SubstructureNotifyMask SubstructureRedirectMask PropertyChangeMask ColormapChangeMask number of visuals:2 default visual id: 0x22 visual: visual id:0x22 class:TrueColor depth:24 planes available colormap entries:256 per subfield red, green, blue masks:0xff, 0xff00, 0xff significant bits in color specification:8 bits visual: visual id:0x23 class:TrueColor depth:24 planes available colormap entries:256 per subfield red, green, blue masks:0xff, 0xff00, 0xff significant bits in color specification:8 bits xdpyinfo output for XVision on a 32 bit display: name of display:localhost:1.0 version number:11.0 vendor string:Santa Cruz Operation Inc. vendor release number:730 maximum request size: 4194300 bytes motion buffer size: 0 bitmap unit, bit order, padding:8, MSBFirst, 16 image byte order:MSBFirst number of supported pixmap formats:2 supported pixmap formats: depth 1, bits_per_pixel 1, scanline_pad 16 depth 24, bits_per_pixel 32, scanline_pad 32 keycode range:minimum 8, maximum 140 focus: PointerRoot number of extensions:10 BIG-REQUESTS DOUBLE-BUFFER GLX LBX MIT-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD SCO(C)1996-VisionResumeExtension SHAPE SYNC XC-MISC XIE default screen number:0 number of screens:1 screen #0: dimensions:1152x864 pixels (304x228 millimeters) resolution:96x96 dots per inch depths (2):1, 24 root window id:0x24 depth of root window:24 planes number of colormaps:minimum 1, maximum 1 default colormap:0x22 default number of colormap cells:256 preallocated pixels:black 0, white 16777215 options:backing-store YES, save-unders NO largest cursor:32x32 current input event mask:0x0 number of visuals:2 default visual id: 0x20 visual: visual id:0x20 class:TrueColor depth:24 planes available colormap entries:256 per subfield red, green, blue masks:0xff, 0xff00, 0xff significant bits in color specification:8 bits

If it was hard to write, it should be hard to read, and even harder to modify. These are all my own opinions.

I submitted a bug report to KDE for this: http://bugs.kde.org/db/40/40875.html Hopefully we'll be able to figure out what is going on. Harold
RE: kde 3.0 no icons
Hi, I recently installed KDE 3.0 on my linux box and have the same problem, that is certain icons don't get displayed on Cygwin/XFree86 4.2.0 (version confirmed by running xdpyinfo). I poked around a little more and found that icons that are in PNG format are the ones that don't get displayed. I checked my Cygwin installation for libpng.dll and it does exist (I manually copied cygpng2.dll to libpng.dll). I'm not sure if this library is required though. Hoping somebody can help me on this. Thanks Manohar Scott, That doesn't sound good. I haven't yet installed KDE 3.0 and I won't have time to for at least a week, so I won't have a chance to look into this for some time. I know you say that Cygwin/XFree86 is up-to-date, but are you running Cygwin/XFree86 4.2.0? You can check by running 'xdpyinfo' in a local Cygwin/XFree86 session or in a terminal when you are logged into another machine via XDMCP.

RE: kde 3.0 no icons
Manohar, I just logged into KDE3 via one of the computers in our campus labs today (running 4.1.99 which is either some unknown test release or 4.1.0) and saw the problem that you mentioned. I noticed that two desktop icons show up (one was the Internet icon for Konq) but no bottom-bar buttons showed up. I'm not sure what causes the problem but at least now I have some sort of test environment.

You can check by running 'xdpyinfo' in a local Cygwin/XFree86 session or in a terminal when you are logged into another machine via XDMCP. qt3, which is used by kde3, does not work with the xfree 4.1.x server, so I can confirm, that an update to xfree 4.2.0 is absolutly nesessary.

RE: kde 3.0 no icons
Scott, I couldn't resist installing KDE3, so I did. I didn't have any problems. I suspect that something went wrong during installation of KDE3 on your machine. Here is a screenshot: http://xfree86.cygwin.com/screenshots/cygwin-xfree86-remote-kde3.png I added that shot to the screenshots page: http://xfree86.cygwin.com/screenshots/ I hope you get the problem figured out, Harold -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Scott Alexander Sent: Friday, April 05, 2002 10:26 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: kde 3.0 no icons Hi, My server has just been upgraded to kde 3.0 running redhat 7.2.
