 Is this because MP3 isn't as free as OGG/Vorbis ?

i tought liblame or so was detected at runtime , and if it was detected, 
support for mp3 is enabled ( i have an 'mp3' tab in the kcontrol module)

i can't get mp3 to work tho .. i have lame 3.89 i think. are there any more

Euro support for Kde 2

2001-10-22 Thread javi
Hello all!!

I would like to introduce myself: I'm javi and I'm working
giving Linux support for the spanish governement, we are
trying to port NT clients to Debian Linux. Now we have a
very important problem to face: we have to support euro
under Debian/Woody, this seems impossible.

We have read a lot of sources of imformation, a lot of
HOWTO's and document like that, but we haven't found a
definitive document, all is too confusing. I must to say
that we have euro support under terminal but no with X's.

These are the version of X's and kde:

ii  xfree86-common 4.1.0-7X Window System (XFree86)
infrastructure
ii  xserver-xfree8 4.1.0-7the XFree86 X server
ii  kdebase2.1.1.0-10 KDE core applications   

That's all, thanks in advance!!

Programs Won't Start

2001-10-22 Thread Robert Tilley
On my Debian unstable system, programs are not starting as fast as they once 
did and often are simply not starting.

I followed the tips and turned off the opening screen in Konqueror and 
noticed that it started up in less that 5 seconds.  Now I can choose it from 
the Internet menu and the hourglass will animate with the Konqueror name up 
in the application panel for up to 45 seconds, but Konqueror will not start 
nor open a window.

Unless something changes, I am without Konqueror for the moment.

Any ideas are much appreciated.

Hi!

Just before I got your respond I fond the best solution: get rid of lpr and 
use cups!!! I dont know if the cupsomatic* package is necessary, but now 
everything's fine! If anyone has a solution with lpr (all the drivers, ...) 
let me know, but for all those of you who do not need lpr for some reason: 
use cups!

It's simply saying that you don't have the RENDER extension loaded.  Either 
you A) are running xfree 4.x.x and don't have the render extension loaded or

Konqueror history

Is there and existing method to use the konqueror history file in a 
manner similar to what the program browser-history does for 
netscape, amaya, etc.?

I am debating trying to add the code for the browser-history program
and recompiling or just writing a parser to extract the available 
information from the existing history file. 

It just kind of surprises me that I could not locate anything 
existing in KDE similar to browser-history.

 RT Any ideas on why this occurs?

 It's simply saying that you don't have the RENDER extension loaded.  Either
 you [various reasons why RENDER might not be there].

While this is true, the error message is just informative; the
Xlib: warning should not prevent an application startup (Of course,
you didn't imply that it would be fatal either, I just thought this
needs a clarification).

I
'm fairly certain your problem lies elsewhere. You could try to
start konqueror with strace and try to find out what the app is
doing just before it
's gone again; and while you don't have source-level debugging
(you'd have to compile konqueror yourself, with -g option) with the
binary package, you could use ddd or gdb directly to try to look
into what the application is doing. I'm not certain how you can tell
gdb to stop right before the program quits, though; you might have
to step through the konqueror execution phase. 

If you don
't know how to use strace, man strace; if you don
't know how to use gdb (GNU debugger) or its frontend ddd (data
display debugger IIRC, apt-get install ddd to install), that last
option might be difficult to use (I'm just playing with gdb, so
questions WRT are not likely to be answered by me. Sorry.)

 HTH.

Dito, the strace might really help though. And check for open bug
reports for the .deb and in the kde bug tracking system, of course.

Re: konsole issues

2001-10-22 Thread Justin R. Miller
Thus spake Jens Benecke ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):

 In kcontrol the 'console' application is probably set for
 'x-terminal-emulator', which is the default 'terminal emulator' for
 _all_ Debian applications. You can either change that (only for KDE)
 or change x-terminal-emulator via 'update-alternatives' which makes
 konsole available to all applications that need a terminal.

Thanks for the tip (you too David) -- using update-alternatives did the
trick.  I still can't figure out why KDE wasn't paying attention to the
setting in kcontrol though -- that is the very one I was toggling.  I'd
like to think that it would work and I wouldn't have to change the
system-wide default (though it's ok in this case).

kmail address book

Greetz,

Have another computer that showed up here. It's running unstable with latest 
kde offerings including kmail. I had carefully saved the old .kde from the 
stable potato install. I copied over the addressbook file into kmail, and 
didn't have any addresses in it.

So, I clicked open the address book, and it will kindly IMPORT addresses etc. 
So, I attempted to import the address book entries to no avial. Clicking on 
the help/contents reveals a yet to be written help for it :)

So, question is, has anyone imported kmail address book from 2.1.2 potato kde 
to latest unstable kde? Sure would like to NOT retype them again.

tnx so much
