Any news here? The sound output really destroys the complete music :-( Self compiling mpeglib with -O0 helped for me, but the configure stuff seems to have several O2's hardcoded. I did a "perl -pi -e 's/-O2/-O0/eg' *" in every directory and replaced the resulting libmpeg by hand for testing. Sound is ok now. Cheers, Cajus pgpCrdLGrwLkr.pgp Description: signature

Some help on konsole fonts?
Hiho, I've noticed monthly changes in my konsole fonts. Every time this happens, I find myself stumblig through several font configurations, removing .font* files, rebuilding font caches, installing font x, removing font y, switching from xfs-xtt to xfsxtt and back - and spending time calling dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig, trying to switch diverse options on and off. Normally that helps somehow - not this time. Now I've broken fonts again and I changed nothing for at least two months. Here's like it looks like: http://lug.fh-swf.de/stuff/shot1.png xfonts-konsole is installed, my fonts are set to "Huge". Anti-aliased fonts do work, but they are much to slow for someone who's main application is the konsole. Look at #219548, too. What can I do to fix this problem (at least) forever? (Ok - it's enough to have it fixed for lets say another two months ;-)) Cheers, Cajus

kdm and afs fails

I guess the configure/automake stuff is buggy for the dcop directory. There's a -L /your/qt/dir/libs missing in the call to the linker, and you're linking against the wrong libqt. As a quick (but not that satisfying) workaround you can put qt and kde into the same prefix (i.e./usr/local/kde3), and everything will be covered by the -L/your/kde/dir/libs. In order to call the mcop progs in a correct manner, you need to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to you qtdir/libs and kdedir/libs, too. Hope it helps, -Cajus

Building KDE3.1rc2 - any traps?
Hi! I'm trying to build KDE3.1rc2 from source and have some problems with it: Normally I keep packages of these "experimental" builds in /opt, so qt goes to /opt/qt, kde to /opt/kde when installed. QTDIR, KDEDIR and PATH are adjusted as needed when starting the build (and this worked till beta2). Compiling of qt-x11-free-3.1.0-rc3 and arts-1.1.0 works fine. Kdelibs stops with dependecy problems when building the dcop stuff. There seems to be a -L/opt/qt/lib missing when linking. After adding it manually, it compiled, but stopped later on, when creating some idl's with the just build dcop utils. Is it a known issue, or am I just missing something? Took a quick view through the build-deps. Hmm. automake fits my config, just not using gcc3.2. Thanks, -Cajus
kdm and sessreg
Hi! I've a question about the user registration during login.

Somehow I don't see any (X) users when calling "who" while there should be about 20 logged in, happily using kde via remote X. Are there any traps I stumbled in, is Xstartup not executed for remote sessions,or is just something wrong with sessreg? Thanks, -Cajus

Yes. It's not a debian specific problem. It happens with RH also. But I don't think that's a kernel problem anyway.

kdm / xdm dying
Hi all! I've got a problem with our terminal-Server running Debian woody with XFree4 and the thin clients running Debian woody with XFree4. All clients get their X/kdm via "X -query server". The problem is that about three times a year the kdm/xdm states the message "too many keepalive retransmissions, closing connection". All users (>200) get logged out at the same time and get the normal login screen after that. The problem depends on the system time of the client. In 2000 it was in may , 2001 in september, and today 13. february 14:58:xx UTC. I can set the time on the client to 14:57, wait about one minute and get logged out again. Any help would be appreciated... Greets, -Cajus PS: I'm not subscribed to debian-x, so please cc possible hints. Thanks.

RedHat has "EuroSign" in /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/de and this works with KDE, gtk, StarOffice, whatever. There must be a sort of trick. I'm looking for this trick - g.. -Cajus

Gtk apps need EuroSign instead of currency in /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/de thats my problem, too. Either kde works, or gtk works. If you set your LANG=de_DE.ISO-8859-15 int /etc/environment and set the font of konsole to "user defined -> iso8859-15" you'll get the euro sign. For the first thingie I've no solution :-( -Cajus
euro - more generic
Hi all. In the past few weeks the euro discussions became more frequent - I know. But for me there's one simple item to be done: Why do I have to modify /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/de (exchange EuroSymbol with currency) in order to get the Alt-Gr thing working in the german setup? Problem is that gtk-applications rely on this EuroSymbol and I can't get them to work with currency. KDE doesn't work with EuroSymbol and wants currency. Grrr. Any hints? Thanks, -Cajus

Here it works for the german stuff like this:
/etc/enviroment:
LC_ALL=C
LANG="de_DE.ISO-8859-15"
I had to replace the "EuroSign" in /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/de with "currency":
key {[ e,E ],
[ currency ] };
Restart the Xserver, set all KDE-Fonts to use iso-8859-15 in the font menus.
Voila. I can get ¤ signs with the keys.

How to debug
Hello. Since I set up a (terminal-) server for testing, there are really strange problems with X (or maybe the kernel). I'm using sid on this system in order to experiment with the newest features and kernel 2.4.10, the thin clients use a nfs-rooted stripped down debian image (sid, kernel 2.4.12). This is the phenomen: Thin Client and Server work well, then - randomly - with a distance of a couple of days a single client looses its connection to the Xserver. It doesn't recognize this, so you can move the mouse cursor, but there's no interaction with the server anymore. The thin client is up well and has nothing in the logs, connections with ssh are possible. The server says absolutely nothing in the logs, too. There seems to be a problem with its eepro NIC: "eth0: card reports no resources." Question is how I can track this down. Is it X11, KDE, Kernel or NIC? Any ideas on that? Thanks, -Cajus

Is this a known problem? I've that problem, too. The Icons get ordered in a row and can't be moved by the user. Ok, he can move them, but they get restored at once.

But thats the way it works now. Calling "init 0" from acpid when the power button gets pressed... Was just wondering if there's a more clean way for that.

Using the kdelibs debian packages should be ok, but remember to install the development packages, too. You can look at config.log why the compilation failed. Maybe configure is looking at the wrong places. If you're using the do-it-yourself kdelibs, you've to care about the KDEDIR enviroment variable. -Cajus
