KDE 3.1.3 For Woody: Scrollbar Bug Fixed ?
Can anyone tell me whether or not the "unnecessary horizontal scrollbar" bug (http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61730) is fixed in the Woody packages at download.kde.org (ftp://ftp.uk.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/3.1.3/Debian/dists/woody/main) ? I see that the bug is fixed by kdelibs-3.1.3a (http://www.kde.org/info/3.1.3.php), but it's not clear to me whether the binary package in the pool directory contains that version. (/pub/kde/stable/3.1.3/Debian/pool/main/k/kdelibs/kdelibs4_3.1.3-0woody1_i386.deb) There's no "3.1.3a" directory on any of the mirrors I've checked. I'm currently running 3.1.2 on Woody without any problems, but would like to upgrade to 3.1.3 - not least because of the security fix it contains (http://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20030729-1.txt), but I'm reluctant to acquire the annoying scrollbar behaviour :-( I'd be grateful either for the information (Ralf ?), or to be told how I can find out for myself (is there any way to see the package changelog without downloading the package itself) ?

RIGHT ON! I now have KDE3 installed and running on Sarge. Installing libsensors-1debian1 manually enabled the installation of kde-core using # apt-get -t unstable install kde-core And, the upgrade went perfectly from KDE 2.2.2 to KDE 3.1.3. Apt removed some packages, installed some new ones, and upgraded some. Thanks a bunch! jc -- Jeff CoppockSystems Engineer Diggin' Debian Admin and User

Starting of new session from other windowmanagers
Hi! KDE has the nice feature that you can start a new session, better a new X server if the screen is locked (or by clicking on ...). What is the interface to this feature? Is it possible to do the very same from within another windowmanager? (With kdm running of course. I think this is not possible with some different display manager running.) Since some of us are running wmaker and some kde and some gnome, I would like to have the same feature for all of them. I think a command line utility which signals kdm that a new session/server should be started would be a nice thing, or is this already possible with dcop? (Please Cc: me any answer, thanks a lot) BTW: debian/woody with kde31, gnome22 etc, or debian/sid, both I have available.

The libsensors-1debian1 package is not in sid anymore, but the kdebase package has not been rebuilt since then. I can mail the package to you, but you don't need the kdebase-package.

I don't know why it was introduced into unstable, but now ksysguardd depends on it and that package is one part of kdebase. You could try to install the kde-core things by hand. apt-get install kdelibs4 and then install all the packages that kdebase consists of, that is enough, as no kde package depends on kdebase.
