Re: Woody/KDE3.1RC7 debs : Screensavers Report

2003-01-27 Thread Michael Hoodes
Welcome to the world of jwz's xscreensaver.  Yup I didn't count them 
but I'll accept 160 ... And ALL of them work for me from the kde 
control panel in both the little display window and using Test for a 
fullscreen view (except for some esoteric screensavers like vidwhack 
and webcollage - both of which I'd like to get working). The appearance
in the control panel was what got me going on xscreensaver and 
prompted my comments earlier. 

And yes there are other fish to fry!  However jwz's xscreensaver is 
enough of a reason to run linux!!!

Hmm .. I don't have any xscreensaver-foo package installed (nothing
against those screensavers, I'm just concentrating on sorting out the
KDE native screensavers), and I have exactly the same symptom - approx
9 out of 10 of the ~160 (!) listed screensavers do absolutely nothing.

When I first noticed this I was using stock Woody Xfree 4.1.0, but
I've now switched to the Xfree 4.2.1 for Woody mentioned by Ralf (in
the "Need advice for mixed Woody/Sid system" thread on 26.Jan.03) and
it has made no difference - problem still there.

I don't think it's a good situation, but nor is it very important, and
I guess there are much bigger fish to fry for now.

BTW: does everyone else have ~160 screensavers ???   That's like 
a _lot_ .. (even allowing for the spurious duplicates).  And do they
work ?

Yes, thanks Paul - it did clarify things a bit.  I'm inferring that
xscreensaver-foo _is_ optional though, and that I don't _have_ to have
any variation of it.

Re: Only root can play sound

2003-01-27 Thread Michael Peddemors
It would be even better, if someone talked to the adduser package maintainer, 
and have adduser package installation ask if you want people to be added to 
the 'audio' group by default or something to that effect, but this is the 
wrong list for that discussion :) Otherwise, if using kde for adding users, 
maybe the interface should handle things like default groups.  It really 
depends on what the system is being used for. Same should go for other 
devices like cdrom's, usb devices whatever.

Upgrading to RC 7 -- Where?

2003-01-27 Thread Robert Tilley
I've removed as many KDE files (RC 6) as I could and then reinstalled KDE from 
the updated sources (Sid: deb http://ktown.kde.org/~nolden/kde unstable 
main).

What was being loaded however, was RC 6 again!  And using aptitude, the column 
that displays the package version is not complete so I could not double-check 
using that.

What apt-source do I need to download KDE RC 7?

do the users have read/write access on the sound device(s)?
add your users to the 'audio' group (usermod -G audio $USER) and make /dev/dsp*
read- and writable for this user group.

no warranty, though.

Re: Only root can play sound

2003-01-27 Thread David Pye
That's NOT the right way to fix it.

You should add the user in question to the audio group. In Debian, the 
permissions and ownership of /dev nodes is VERY carefully thought out. e.g. 
want  a user to  be able to use the serial ports? Then add him to the dialout 
group.

At least doing it this way stops your friend with his guest account ssh'ing 
into your box, and start playing mp3s at 3am for a 'laugh'!

Hi ML,
I'm using Ralf's KDE3.1 (thanks Ralf!) and k3b. I did k3bsetup and the user 
can burn CD images with cdrecord. As root, k3b behaves just normal, but in 
the user account, the IDE does not 'work' properly. The file selector

k3b, but there is no project window.

Does anyone know of this problem/has solved it?

I would consider those important though wine is a constantly moving target. 
The only thing really worth upgrading would be libsdl then (got asked a

I'll have a look in how much work that would be.

I upgraded XFree as you advised me to do, but the problem remains. I'm not

I realise that I didn't supply all the information required. Therefor this 
addition

KDE version 3.0.5a from the woody branch (deb 
http://kde.us.themoes.org/pub/kde/stable/3.0.5a/Debian/woody/ ./)
That include the 3.0.5 version of qt.

After I updated the x-server certain fonts aren't available in kde. They are 
represented by a empty box. Could it be a problem with the fontserver? 
But then it is strange that mozzila renders correctly. 

In the font configuration box some fonts are followed by brackets [xft] for 
instance. And those are not presented correct. 

What do I have to do?

You can get the final deb from my repository. It's binary indep so you can 
install it on any architecture. Building a single language pack is a 
nightmare compared to build the whole packages in one go because you have to 
change a thousand things and you need to mix that into the single 
sourcepackage available from KDE on ftp or build your own sourcepackage from 
CVS.

There are two types of screensavers, regular ones that were made
especially for KDE. These files have the extension .kss

The others inside the screensaver box are actually ones that come
with the xscreensaver package.

It seems to me that the xscreensaver support is broken (at least on
my machines it is). I have the xscreensaver and -nognome options
installed. They used to work but I think they are broken in Ralf's
current packaging or at the source code level.

Has anyone else encountered problems using the xscreensavers
recently, even though you have the dependencies all met? Perhaps
there's some other library which needs to be upgraded but somehow is
not listed as a dependency?

Re: Woody/KDE3.1RC7 debs : Screensavers Report

2003-01-27 Thread Michael Hoodes
Paul, 

Thanks for the clarification - I understood that. 

BUT - The XScreensaver Option does not work (on both Woody and Sid kde 
3.1) (I have installed both xscreensaver and xscreensaver-nognome) as I 
believe  the xscreensaver program does  not run as a daemon by 
xscreensaver.kss.  

Definition of not working:  The screen is blanked at the correct time,
but the xscreensaver screensaver is not displayed.  However the 
blank screen is ended properly by a mouse or keyboard movement.

I think that kde can avoid running xscreensaver as a daemon by providing
a random selection of screensavers when XScreensaver option is chosen.

Would that work?  i.e. put randomizing code in xscreensaver.kss similar
to what I use for display of random Eterm pixmaps:
  background %random(`cat pixmaps.list 2>/dev/null`)

But I am not enough familiar with perl to put that (or similar code) in 
the kss file.  Or indeed if that is the solution for getting the 
xscreensaver program to run properly.

Re: apt-get dist-upgrade with ralf's stable

2003-01-27 Thread David Bishop

Yes, the stable ones are newer. (3.1 vs. 3.0.99).  No, Ralf is not going to 
update the unstable packages any more.  If KDE is currently working for you, 
then I would personally remove any 3rd party apt-lines at all (including 
Ralf's) and wait for 3.1 to enter unstable officially.

Re: Kweather freeze the kicker!

2003-01-27 Thread Michael Hoodes
Tim,

I suspect KL's sid debs did not/will not make a difference with 
Kweather. Kweather will fail and "kill" your session if it's defined 
weather  station is not found or is not responding. I run Kweather on 
both Woody (Ralph's debs) and Sid(Karolina's debs) and have encountered 
the same problem.  My station KSEA seems to work OK so you  might try 
that to see if the problem goes away. 

You can manually change the weather station by edit of 
.kde/share/config/weather_panelappletrc

This Kweather "bug" exists at bugs.kde.org.

kde's screensavers should be (are?) independant of xscreensaver.

If you want to use the xscreensaver option, you must have xscreensaver 
installed.

If you want to install xscreensaver, you must install exactly one of either 
xscreensaver-nognome and xscreensaver-gnome, in order to satisfy the 
dependancies of the xscreensaver package.

KDE users should use xscreensaver-nognome over xscreensaver-gnome, if they do 
not have gnome installed.

It seems that installing xscreensaver-gnome may cause (some) duplicate entries 
in the (x)screensaver list when using KDE.

Not quite sure what my point is, but I hope that clarifies things somewhat.

Yes, I'm reworking to make a pool there because the huge mass of packages (517 
until now) make it unmaintainable as soon as you're adding other 
architectures. I've added the powerpc debs from Rick Cook today and that 
threw up the problems now :-) There's way too many arch-indep files that 
cover space there.

I'll send a message to the list as soon as I'm done

Can it be that you both had Anti-Aliasing enabled ? If yes, disable it or use 
XFree 4.2.1 which is known to work best with anti-aliased text fonts while 
the standard woody version 4.1 is quite a bit unreliable with that. I built 
the Qt packages for 3.0.5 without antialiasing enabled so that this doesn't 
occur, but I didn't want to provide two different sets for Qt again just to 
work around this on some chipsets and prevent most people to use antialiased 
text fonts.

The same. I "solved" this by disabling the RenderAccel option in XF86Config-4, 
and by forcing nvidia.o to use the 2x AGP setting. BTW, what kind of 
motherboard chipset do you have? I thought my motherboard was to blame for 
this behavior: I have an Asus A7A266-E, mounting ALiMagik 1647, probably 
known as the worst chipset in history. It has already given me a number of 
problems, so I consider myself lucky enough to still be able to use my pc 
that I won't complain about losing performance from the graphic 
accelerator...


Anyway if anyone has a better solution please let me know.


Thanks

Because the install files aren't up to date.

KDE repository deb-lines changed on ktown

2003-01-27 Thread Ralf Nolden
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

just to let you know, after Rick Cook has finished up his powerpc build, the 
repository now contains powerpc and i386 as well as source packages for KDE 
3.1 + applications + development stuff. I'm working on refining this to a 
real pool to avoid double covered diskspace, but for now this works at least 
for every user and I guess I don't need to change the apt-line anymore when 
creating the pool. Just expect you to apt-get update again maybe.

The new deb-lines for your /etc/apt/sources.list are:

Woody:
deb http://ktown.kde.org/~nolden/kde stable main
deb-src http://ktown.kde.org/~nolden/kde stable main

Sid:
deb http://ktown.kde.org/~nolden/kde unstable main


Thanks for your attention,

Ralf

Konqueror's File Association

2003-01-27 Thread Aryan Ameri
Hi there:

I am trying to remaster a Knoppix CD. Using apt and dpkg, I removed all KDE 
3.0 packages, and  installed Ralph Nolden's KDE 3.1 packages on it. After 
this something wierd is happenning. When KDE's default language is set to 
some specific languages like Turkish, Finish, Farsi and Czech; konqueror is 
not able to open html pages. intead it opens the page in a text editor (kate 
I believe) and shows it's source code.

While when KDE's default language is set to other languages like German, 
English or Polish, Konqueror handles html pages correctly.

What may cause konqueror's file association to malfunction? What may force 
Konqueror to open html pages in a text editor? Any ideas?

Cheers

Don't use KDEDIR, don't use QTDIR. 

KDE finds its stuff automatically with kde-config, Qt checks include the  
debian path's where Qt is located. (/usr/lib and /usr/include/qt). If you 
want to explicitely pass those, use ./configure --with-qt-libraries=/usr/lib

Can't see mail folders in KMail

2003-01-27 Thread Y.T.Tsai
Greeting all, ;-)
Thanks for Ralf's deb first and I'm trying to do my best on
testing.
I found a problem in KMail that I can't see the name of folders. I had
taken a screen shot:
http://www.csie.nctu.edu.tw/~yttsai/screen_shot/kmail_bug.jpg
You can see the left side, where the folder list should be show the list
of folders, is totally blank except the number. Would that be my own
problem or that is a bug? My Environment is sid and if u want to know
the specific packages that I have installed, I can list for u.

Thanks Everyone Give Ur Time Making KDE Better!

Best Regards and Happy New Year

If you use the admin dir in your template correctly, it will find out most 
stuff automatically by reading kde-config. Please have a look into 
admin/debianrules which parameters to pass to configure if that alone doesn't 
work for you.

most likely the non-PIC piece of libqt is actually pulled in from Xinerama
support which will eventually get fixed once the X packages start producing
a shared version of the library.  However I'm not sure when that will happen.

prelinking

2003-01-27 Thread James
I recently discovered the very nice prelink package.  apt-get install prelink; 
prelink -a will prelink every binary on your system (in unstable at least).  I 
was looking forward to a nice speedup in KDE,
however, prelinking every KDE binary fails with the message "Cannot prelink 
against non-PIC shared library /usr/lib/libqt-mt.so.3"

So now I have some questions:  Does prelinking the KDE libraries still do any 
good?  I haven't used a stopwatch, but I don't notice any difference.  Why is 
QT position-dependent code, and can it be made position-independent?  Is it 
possible to get a fully prelinked KDE in Debian unstable?
