How about just selecting "Disable powermanagement" or "Energieverwaltung 
deaktivieren" available when clicking on laptop battery icon in systray? 
(Dunno how that would look on a desktop system).

Or extra player: I think some players inhibit the screen blanker and screen 
energy saving.

An extra idea, search via qdbus, maybe under powerdevil or powermanagement or 
some such for a method to do what you want to achieve.

Ciao,

I'm already using VLC and what prompted my original question was that 
for some time it did not disable the screen saver anymore. In the 
meantime, fortunately this feature started to work again.

Kde-telepathy 0.8.1.

2014-05-18 Thread Diane Trout
Hi,

The latest version of KDE telepathy mostly in unstable. Unfortunately one core 
library is stuck in new for a while.

This version brings meta-contact support via libkpeople.

Unfortunately there's a bug in the contact-list that broke the action for 
sending files directly from the contact list. You can still send files using 
the ktp-send-file applet.

(There's work at fixing that bug in upstream, so it should be fixed in next 
release).

As for ktp-call-ui, I had successfully made xmpp calls between two versions of 
ktp and empathy, but I still haven't figured out why there are problems with 
Jitsi. I've also heard some reports of success making SIP calls.

Diane

Hi,

Nice to here that ktp 0.8.1 will be available.

I looked at the NEW page and saw an error in the copyright file:
two sections named License: GPL-2+ and no section that is named License: 
GPL-3+

Last paragraph:
License: GPL-3+:

either version 2 -> either version 3

version 3 points to version 2:
 Public License version 3 can be found in "/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2"

Regards

I see a GPL-3+ and GPL-2+ section, with the mistake that I cut and pasted:

 On Debian systems, the complete text of the GNU General
 Public License version 3 can be found in "/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2"

from the GPL-3 section and only changed one of the 3s?

(Which is still needs fixing, but I am only seeing that thing to fix).
