My Window Decorations theme is Oxygen (I only have 1 Oxygen Window Decoration 
theme) and I'm using a 
GoForce GT 430 video card.
I have not tried another theme, since I'm content with my current settings (and 
it is working).

Agreed.

I don't know if there's a better/efficient way to compare configs, but here are 
my Advanced Desktop 
Effect settings:
- Compositing type: OpenGL
- Disable functionality checks: unchecked
General Options
- Keep window thumbnails: Only for Shown Windows
- Scale method: Accurate
- Suspend desktop effects for fullscreen windows: checked
OpenGL Options
- Enable direct rendering: checked
- Use OpenGL 2 Shaders: checked
- Use VSync: checked

HTH,
  Diederik

That is the Desktop theme, ya... which Window Decorations theme are you using 
and which video card?

I have a GeForce Go 6100. So far I've tried Air and Oxygen on the Desktop, 
with B II and Oxygen (the light one, not the one labelled "by Sean Wilson") 
for Window Decorations. I have not tried creating a fresh account, yet.

If we can pin this down wrt card, themes, or configs we may be able to 
determine if a bug report is warranted and who should get it. A report at this 
time would amount to a fairly useless, `it don't work', IMO.

RFS: RoboJournal

2012-04-25 Thread Will Kraft
Hello,

I'm writing to request sponsorship for RoboJournal, a journal/diary program
written in Qt and released under GPL3. I'm contacting your group because
I’ve heard that Debian-KDE also handles Qt projects.  There are very few
journal/diary tools in Debian, so I felt the need to write my own.
RoboJournal has been under development for about 7 months and allows users
to create journals on local systems or remotely by using databases to hold
the entry data.  Although RoboJournal is not a mature app yet,  it is
stable, usable, and all major bugs in the codebase (as of version 0.2) have
been fixed. This is the first project that I’ve ever packaged for Linux and
I'm relatively new to the process, so I hope I’ve done everything
correctly.

Package name: robojournal
Architectures: i386  and AMD64
License: GPL3
Short Description: "Free journaling software for everyone"
Long Description: "RoboJournal is a cross-platform journal/diary tool
written in Qt/C++. Right now, RoboJournal only supports MySQL but support
for SQLite (and possibly Postgres) will be added in future releases.
RoboJournal runs on Windows and Linux."

Download:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/robojournal/files/Linux/robojournal_0.2_amd64.deb/download
http://sourceforge.net/projects/robojournal/files/Linux/robojournal_0.2_i386.deb/download


Thanks,

Will Kraft
