Re: KDE 3.0.2 debs

2002-07-11 Thread Pat Colbeck
Works fine on Woody for me. I had to upgrade a couple of packages to those 
from Sid but not more than three or four. Seems really stable and very fast 
on my P400.

X connection

2002-07-11 Thread José Manuel Pérez
Hi all.
I'm trying to connect to a X host and display the application in my laptop. 
I'm running sid with X 4.2 and KDE 3.0.2.
I do the following:
- xhost +remote
- ssh to remote
- run program that sets DISPLAY as my laptop:0.0
But this doesn't work, and I've not found where to configure my laptop in 
order to allow remote to make X connection.

Anybody can help me?

Thanks in advance,

 Change in /etc/kde3/kdm/Xservers

:0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /etc/X11/X  -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp vt7
by
:0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /etc/X11/X  -dpi 100

and restart the X server

You don't need xhost at all. Just use ssh -X (read the manual for details).
With this option ssh takes care of setting DISPLAY to the correct value.
You just need to configure the remote hosts sshd to allow X forwarding.

Fwd: kppp not passing through password

2002-07-11 Thread tpo2
This was orignialy sent to calc with a wrong Cc: to the list. I'm forwarding it
to the list for refernce.

Btw. since KDE3 is not in debian, how is one supposed to report bugs?
To the list? Where should I send a fixes f.ex. to the README.Debian to?

 Subject: kppp not passing through password
  To: Christopher L Cheney <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

I have not succeded in bringing kppp to pass through the password to pppd. 
In the ppp log I see:   
   
Jul  9 12:14:07 petertosh pppd[3041]: sent [PAP AuthReq id=0x1 user="sunrise"   
password=""]   
   
I had to insert the auth info into /etc/ppp/pap-secrets:   
   
sunrise sun freesurf   
   
AFAIK this is not documented anywhere in the kppp documentation and IMHO   
the user shouldn't worry about /etc/ppp/pap-secrets at all.   
   
A few more suggestions for kppp:   
   
* debug option for pppd  
 
* local2 entry for syslog.conf for /var/log/ppp.log 
 
* contrary to what /../doc/README.Debian says - the user does not only 
  has to be member of dip but also of dialout (I have to say it's quite 
  foggy to me why there are two groups for dialout in Debian).  
 
Thanks a lot for the KDE3 packages - they work very well! It'd be nice if 
they could move into unstable so there's an archive for bugreports, libraries 
start getting in sync again etc. 
 
Thanks a lot!

problem starting kde

2002-07-11 Thread Eric Aumont
Hello,

I'm a beginner with Debian which I like already a lot. I did a
basic installation of woody with only kde and its dependances.
When the system boots, I get the message "starting K desktop
manager : done", then the login in text mode and no kde. With
a precedent installation with xfree86, xdm and twm, the
graphical environment worked fine. I feel it's perhaps a
problem of X configuration because I was not asked during this
latter intallation to tell my kind of graphics hardware
despite the fact that xfree86 has been installed.

Thanks for answer,

Eric

Re: problem starting kde

2002-07-11 Thread Jon Ellis
I had a problem very similar to this on my Woody machine when I first
installed it because I was missing some font packages.  I believe they
were xfonts-100dpi, xfonts-75dpi, and xfonts-base.  If this fails, check
out your KDM log and see what's going on.

You are right; usually this means that there is some problem preventing X from 
starting.

Try logging in to the console then doing dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86, 
which will let you configure your X server. If that doesn't work, you should 
probably do what Jon Ellis says and look at the KDM log, which will tell you 
why X failed to start.
