First check, whether Last.fm support is enabled: Settings menu -> Configure Amarok... -> Internet Services and activate the check box in front of Last.fm. Click the configure button for the service to add your last.fm account data and activate "Submit tracks" to scrobble played tracks. I'm not sure if "Retrieve similar artists" is currently usable. You can access the Last.fm "radios" from the right sidebar: click the internet tab, and select the last.fm service. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

At least there seem to be not more bugs than in older KDE packages. ;) Take a look at the docs, especially for the new udev-package, because the configuration of hotplug changed. Björn

Hi Jonathan, I ran into similar problems a few month ago. fam is a daemon that monitors file changes. But you can simply replace fam by gamin, it's smaller in size, needs less ressources and I never notices such strange behaviours like the one you described with gamin. Björn

This whole discussion's been turned into the wrong direction. The question was not about which HTML engine is the best, but wether it was possible to use gecko with Konqueror as it is shipped by Debian. And the answer to this is plain and simple: no. Especially in the OS community it's not the default policy to try to force users to use one solution, but to let him decide what he likes most or suites his needs most. Björn

In easy terms: You count your swap space as "memory" as well, it's simply mapped into the addressable space of your system.

You could simply subtract the size of your card's memory from the value you get with top or ps. For more detailed information on memory usage: # cat /proc/`pidof X`/status | grep ^Vm Björn

Also, some menu entrys are double. Your problem seems to match the one I've noticed about 1 year ago. Please take a look at Bug#216463 (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=216463). The solution was to remove the empty directiory /usr/share/config that was (probably) left by an early installation and create the symlink /usr/share/config => /etc/kde3. Bjoern

KMail creates some hidden index files and might use different folder names for Inbox, Sent, etc. than you configured for your mutt setup. It even recognizes the Status: header and shows mails you already read in mutt as "not new". A bigger problem is that KMail handles subfolders differently. While you create a subdirectory in mutt, KMail creates a directory called `..directory'. is still a normal mbox folder, so you can store mails in it and it's subfolders located in the created hidden directory. KMail doesn't show "normal" directories in ~/Mail/ at all. Bjoern
Re: No sound after upgrade to unstable/KDE3.2.2

Even with mpg123 started in the > background before kde Hi again, this one is easy to fix. Open KDE's control center, go to `Sound & Multimedia' -> `Mixer'. If you don't want KDE to change your mixer settings on startup you will have to uncheck the `Load volumes on login' box. If you want the mixer settings being the same every time you start KDE then keep the box checked, change the mixer volumes as you prefer and klick the `Save current volumes' button. > Here are messages found in ~/.xsession-errors > [...] > ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:494:(snd_pcm_hw_start) SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_START failed: > Broken pipe > [...] > kmixctrl: ERROR: Can't find ALSA mixer. > [...] I get the same output. Looking over the bugreports for kmix on bugs.kde.org there seem to be some issues unsolved especially when using ALSA's native interface and/or kernel 2.6.x. I always configure every application to use the OSS devices. Bjoern

During initialisation process the sound > broke down . Forever. :-( Are you sure that KDE (especially kmix) isn't remuting the mixer on start? While mpg123 is playing something artsd won't be able to take over the DSP-Device but to adjust the mixer settings. Open kmix again and recheck the settings. > Is there any possibility to log and view the initialisation process of > kde ? Something like dmesg for kde ? If there's something wrong with your alsa modules dmesg or /var/log/messages could be a good starting point as well. What does mpg123 say when you start it _after_ kde is loaded? Is it simply freezing doing nothing? Try (as root): # lsof /dev/snd/* or # lsof /dev/sound/* to see what programs are accessing the sound devices. I'm running a FM801 card by myself never seeing any such problems. Bjoern

Actually i tried your example and did change the background-color to red and the color to yellow. Buttons and input fields on www.kde.org f.e. appeared as expected. Another possibility could be that the site explicitly defines values for those attributes you're having problems with. Bjoern
