(due to long chain > of interconnected dependencies) Squeeze has very old versions of software. If you want the latest features on Debian, use Sid, perhaps with some packages from experimental. It will probably break sometime though, so you need to be able to fix it. Personally, I run Debian Sid, with KDE from experimental-snapshots, calligra, amarok, kdevelop, apper, freetype from development sources, and KDEPIM 4.10 and Qt 4.8.4 from released sources. However I do this knowing that any of these could easily break with an update, or it could turn out that I need newer versions of libraries than that available in repos. If you're not willing to do this, (K)ubuntu or arch or another similar distro that is released often, and aimed at consumers, may be a better option for you. > > For now it would be best to somehow include MTP before Debian 7 release. > You may be able to compile the necessary bits of KDE 4.10 from source yourself.

Debian stable is designed to prioritize stability first, at the expense of having the latest packages and supporting the latest technologies. It's not designed for home users who need their computer to work with the phone or tablet du jour, but to cater to those who can't afford bugs or crashes (e.g. servers or public kiosks). If the most important thing to you is to have the latest software, you may be better off with Arch or aptosid (based on debian sid), which are focused at home users who want the latest software. You could also try Debian testing, which will likely get the latest KDE SC release once Wheezy is released, but it isn't officially supported, and could break. Also, it's Debian. not Deebian. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Graphics System raster does not work
I upgraded Qt to 4.8.0 from experimental, and found that applications using the raster graphics system (e.g. Klickety) failed to render correctly, and printed large numbers of BadDrawable X errors when started from Konsole. I then downgraded to Qt 4.7.4 again, and found that this problem persisted. In addition, with Qt 4.8.0, font rendering is much worse than before, and KDM crashes upon starting, but these problems disappeared again after downgrading. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

At every boot I am greeted with the kdm login screen. I enter my password and then kdm wants me to login again. Once I have logged in twice, I get to my desktop. After that, when I tell KDE to shutdown the machine, what do I see? kdm again. Then, if I shutdown from this kdm it works. Anyone else experiencing this? Where should I look for a solution? I am clueless. Thanks very much, Cassiano Leal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org I have the same problem, but if I or another user is logged in on a VT, when I shutdown, I am asked if I wish to log them off as well, and if I click OK, the system will shutdown The startup login twice problem is exactly the same for me, and it;s been happening since I upgraded to kde sc 4.3.4 Sorry, accidentally replied to Cassiano Leal instead of list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: KDE 4.4 betas
If you want to criticise Debian's policies, do it publically to the list, not privately to a user. For all previous releases, the .0 release has been in unstable on KDE release day. Anyway, 4.4 beta is not available in the karmic repos, only in Lucid repos, and the developers explicitly warn that no one should currently use Lucid unless willing to recover from anything up to complete system breakage.

Re: KDE 4.4 betas
This message was posted to a Debian mailing list concerning when 4.4 beta would be available in Debian experimental. I moved from the *buntu set after experiencing serious performance differences between identically configured kubuntu and debian systems, and would not move back. Also, I prefer debian's practice of generally shipping unpatched packages to Ubuntu's patching software against the wishes of upstream.

KDE 4.4 betas
Previously on this list I think it was stated KDE SC 4.4 beta 1 wouldn't be packaged due to lack of time. Is there any indication on when the first pre-release version will be available in experimental. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
