Index setup in KDE 3.1.1
Does anyone know how to setup the index in KDE 3.1.1? Is it just the file created after I run rundig? Or is it something else? TIA! NeoFax
KDE passwords for FISH protocol
I've just set up LISa in KDE 3.1.1 and use it with great success on my local network. At one point, I typed in the wrong password during a FISH session, and checked the "Remember password" box. Now I can't get in -- I don't know where LISa (or Konqueror?) stores the passwords. Generally the storing between sessions is a great feature, but in this case it keeps me permanently out! This may be an ssh problem, but I can access the remote system using ssh and sftp with no problem; it's just the fish protocol that's using the stored password. Silly problem this; I just need to know the location of a file. Of course it would be nice if LISa/Konqueror gave you some way to work around this situation! Please cc: me as I'm not subscribed. Cheers, Peter
libopenal problems.
As many people know, the update from libvorbis0 to libvorbis0a broke a lot of things. Most of them are fixed, but I'm still waiting for an update to libopenal0, since a lot of games depend on that package, and are uninstallable because libopenal0 depends on the old libvorbis0. From what I've read on the libopenal0 bug reports, a fix is in the works. Is there any ways that this can be fast-tracked so I can put my treasured games back on my system? /me is impatient.
kdemultimedia-dev versus libmpeg-dev
I'm running Ralf's KDE3.1 on Woody, and I want the ability to build packages on it. So I need kdemultimedia-dev. I also want to be able to track gimp1.3 for my wife, so I need libmpeg-dev as a dependency from that. Unfortunately kdemultimedia-dev names it as 'conflicts', so I can't do both ! Is there any way to resolve this, please ? Nick -- make: *** No rule to make target `war'. Stop.
DCOPserver problem with user
I just set up my laptop recently, and I'm having trouble getting KDE to work for my user account. It works fine, however, as root. When I try to startx as a user, I get the following error message: # There was an error setting up inter-process # communication for KDE. The message returned # by the system was: # # Could not read network connection list. # /home/daines/.DCOPserver_(none)_:0 # # Please check that the "dcopserver" program is running! "daines" is the name of my user account. I have my suspicions that this problem may be related to something else, since I cannot get apache to start, either. The "(none)" is what makes me think this. I don't have any idea how to go about fixing it, though. I haven't been running GNU/Linux for a couple years now because I haven't owned a computer (except the two at work!), so treat me like a relative newbie when giving me direction. Thanx, msd

Quoting Oswald Buddenhagen: > that's a bug in PAM i reported almost two years ago (and posted a > (partial?) patch, even). i didn't look recently, but last time i checked > they still have not reacted. :( The more I think about it, the less enamoured I am with Debian's system of allocating permissions anyway. I noticed this morning that in order to grant permission to my users to use the cdrom device I had two choices: 1) grant them membership to the "disk" group, clearly a bad idea 2) change the group on /dev/hdc to "audio". I'm not entirely satisfied with either approach. Redhat has a device-by-device permission allocation system, which gives a much finer level of control.

A good place for these is bugs.kde.org, as I know for a fact that the main KMail developers (Don, Ingo, Marc) don't read this list. You will also find out that (as you suspected) most of these have been noticed by other people, so you can 'vote' for your most pressing wishlist item or bugfix (rather than creating dupe bug reports, which will just be closed). > Why can the composer not remember that I want it to display the message in > fixed font? (I assume this is already being corrected in upstream) I don't really know what you're talking about here. It remembers whatever font I set it to in the 'Appearance'.

Well, you would need to have custom fonts to make composer use a fixed font (iirc).

No, it doesn't. I tend to use a click/shift-click to select a bunch of messages, then delete them all at once. IMAP is one of the places that KMail has lagged, but it is also one of the places that it has gotten better by leaps and bounds with each release. > Wishlist feature: newsreader-like 'ignore thread' functionality. I'm confident there is such a wishlist feature. Find it and vote. I can tell you from experience that the KDE devs pay attention to that list, as client side imap filtering is being (has been?) implemented for 3.2 by Don soley based on that. > Likely to be a misconfiguration or missing software package: it doesn't > display attachments (simple ones, like jpgs etc.) inline.

If you do a lot of keyboard reading, you can bind 'view source' to a key, and just use alt-f4 when done.

Make sure that you use the flash6 plugin. If flash6 does not help (AFAIK it does not have this bug anymore), maybe you can use an alsa driver that allows multi-open?

KDE 3.1.1: audio group, pam.d?
Hi, I just upgraded from the stock kde (woody) to kde 3.1.1 from kde.org. Things went pretty smoothly. There's one hitch however. Right now, ordinary users aren't able to access /dev/dsp so they get no sound. The "right" way to resolve this is using /etc/pam.d/kdm and /etc/security/group.conf. In /etc/pam.d/kdm I added the line: auth optional pam_group.so in /etc/security/group.conf I added the line: kdm;*;*;Al-2400;audio This setup actually works. When a user logs in they are temporarily added to the audio group and sound works. My problem is with the second field which represents the tty that the user is logged in under. For kdm from the console this is ":0". If I use this for the tty field instead of the wildcard "*", users don't get added to the audio group and there's no sound. I tried escaping the colon, e.g. \:0, but that actually causes a complete failure to login using kdm. I tried both "*:0" and ":0*" Thinking there might be leading or trailing whitespace in the tty name, neither worked. I don't like using the wildcard because I don't want remote users dumping sound to the audio device. I wish I had looked at this stuff BEFORE I upgraded to 3.1.1 since the 2.2 audio was working and I assume it used the same method. If someone is still running 2.2 or has this working in 3.1.1 could you let me know how this stuff is accomplished?

Kmail (review and feature wishes)
Yo! Posted here since I guess some of the kde upstream folks read this list, too. Many of these probably covered somewhere else, too, so please forgive me. Several things have made me switch from gnome to KDE, so I've installed various things and am now relatively happy. For one thing, konqueror appears much faster than galeon, so that alone is something... I was using evolution unitl now, and have now switched to kmail, here my first comments: (Oh, yes: kmail 1.5.1, with the PGP/MIME plugin (but you saw that) - thanks to Ralf for providing the debs, the woody debs run just fine on my mixed sarge/sid system). Why can the composer not remember that I want it to display the message in fixed font? (I assume this is already being corrected in upstream) A small bug (I doubt I'm the first to notice this, either): quoted text is shown in a bigger font than unquoted text. Screenshot (what's a small kde app for taking them?) at http://fortytwo.ch/~avbidder/kmail-quoting.png (Oh, yes: I'm *not* using custom fonts, but the fonts of the global KDE config). Does kmail support a 'display deleted messages as strike-through' mode? Problem: in mailing list folders, while scanning the subject lines, I delete messages much faster than kmail can update the display (I'm using IMAP over an 256/64 connection, so fetching the next message takes its time). Deleting articles that fast does weird things, including making kmail crash occasionally (this could also be related because displaying a message takes its time whin kmail is autoverificating a gpg signature). Wishlist feature: newsreader-like 'ignore thread' functionality. Likely to be a misconfiguration or missing software package: it doesn't display attachments (simple ones, like jpgs etc.) inline. Wishlist (that's not in kmail, though, as far as I understand): a [ ] do not ask for this MIME type again check box when launching an application to view an attachment.

aRts and netscape flash plugin
Hello! I think my problem is not uniqe. I use kde 3.1 on Debian sid. I downloaded Netscape 7 installer and installed it. If i view a flash powered page in Netscape7 browser, it hangs. I think, flash plugin tries to get control on /dev/dsp but didn't succeeded. It blocks netscape, and only kill helps that. XMMS works properly with aRts output plugin. I dug it deeper: I tried to shut down aRts. From that netscape7 works properly with flashy pages. But when i started XMMS (with OSS plugin), netscape hangs. After that i closed XMMS, and then netscape7 instantly started displaying flash pages. So, i think netscape7's flash plugin works only with /dev/dsp, and if that device is in use, it waits...waits...waits. Can i do a workaround to make that plugin working with aRts? -- = Heilig (Cece) Szabolcs - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.phphost.hu =

Only the screen goes blank, and I can't even change the virtual terminals. However, the shutdown works with one X server or with two X servers, but from kdm. Is this a bug from KDE? My configuration: Debian Woody, KDE 3.1 Thanks, joco
