Users on KDM logon screen

2002-04-02 Thread BROWN Nick
Warning: newbie, please flame gently...  I checked the archives (quickly)
but didn't find this.

Just did a dist-upgrade on unstable and got new everything, notably KDE
2.2.2.  [Actually KDE broke quite badly, but after several rounds of
--force-overwrite and renaming a number of .dpkg-tmp files, it all settled
down.]

Now KDM's logon screen shows every user from /etc/passwd.  It didn't
before... can something be done to limit it to real users ?  I have a
small screen (height = 480) on my Vaio C1VE and the icons push the username,
password, and buttons off the bottom of the screen.

In kcontrol, goto system-login manager.  Configure to your hearts content.

Can't see bottom of dialog box

2002-04-02 Thread BROWN Nick
I'm trying to set the proxy info in Konqueror and my limited screen size
(1024 x 480) on the Vaio C1VE means that I can't fill in all the fields in
the dialog box, or indeed find the OK button.  Is there some way
(control-shift-alt-drag, etc) to have the desktop pan across a larger
virtual window ?

I think many of us have been in this stage before.  The trick is that you can 
use the ALT+LEFT_CLICK on your mouse to move any window anywhere on your 
desktop.  Hope that helps.

Ignore: Can't see bottom of dialog box

2002-04-02 Thread BROWN Nick
Please ignore this, I found it (used Virtual in the Display section).

If only I had time to use X and KDE professionally, instead of fighting
Windoze all day at work and scraping time together for Debian.  Sigh.

Re: Can't see bottom of dialog box

2002-04-02 Thread Jason Unsworth
Try running xf86config, or assuming you're running XFree86 4.x, you could do
a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-SERVER (where SERVER == your X server name;
e.g., xserver-xfree86).  Either process should eventually yield a question
about using a virtual desktop, which you can then use to simulate much
larger real estate.

(alternatively, as you may already be aware, in KDE you can simply hold down
Alt and then drag a window around using any grab location...)

Re: KDE 3.0rc3 Debs???

A very *big*, incremental upgrade :-)  KMail's imap is much 
cleaner/faster/stronger.  gpg is much improved, with color-bars, point/click 
key selection (no copy/pasting!), server-side pop filters (so you don't have 
to even download large emails), etc.  Konq's javascript rocks the house (see 
recent /. article :-).  DHTML rendering seems much improved, along with 
normal stuff. It's also tons faster (both to startup and browse).  Konsole 
has some nifty enhancments (you can now rearrange the tabs, more/better 
options for colors, double-clicking for select). arts/noatun works on my 
soundcard with no patches (didn't before), and seems to be a lot more stable.  

Basically, it's very cool, with only a couple regressions (I know there are 
some, I just can't think of them right now :-), and very much worth the wait.  
Oh, KPilot still sucks B)  But I'm working on that... (actually, you 
interrupted me w/this mail.  I'm almost done with xml-exporting :-).

HTH and HAND!

 Hey David,

   So, how is kde3, since you've been playing w/ it? Is it
 a big improvement, or just an incremental upgrade?

 Cheers,
 Sheldon.

Having said that, I compiled kde3 locally following the kde2+3

However, I plan on rm -fR'ing my /usr/local/kde3 as soon as .debs are
available, as apt-get makes my life so much easier.
  
   I feel like playing with the CVS until the .debs are available - how
   are people compiling from CVS? Using dpkg-buildpackage, or ./configure;
   make; make install?
 
  I literally followed step for step the women.kde.org tutorial.  In
  effect, the ./configure  make  make install, partitioned off into
  /usr/local/kde3 for easy removal later.
