Yes, it does crash sometimes, it does have connection problems on unreliable connections, but come on, it is a pretty nice mail client, restarting it usually solves most issues. If you hate kmail, switch to something else. Plain simple. I can only second that, I used Kmail for nearly a decade too. And I think its perfectly usable, too. I had only a few minor crashes. And I had only minor crashes, if any, in the kde4 KMail, too. I especially didnt lose any Mail since kde4 and Im using it since its introduction in kde 4.1 (I think). greetz drz kmail is usable and its integration in kontact makes it worthwile for me to live with some minor issues for now: kmail stalls quite often (sometimes only kmail, sometimes the system for ~ 10 sec.) when moving/deleting mails, even crashes on me sometimes when deleting group of mails. i have not checked yet if these issues are fixed in 4.2.3 greetz ferdi -- Ferdi Thommes 2.Vorsitzender sidux e.V. _ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Maybe you must increase the Maximum file size for previews (Settings / View Modes / General). Cheers, André thanks, increasing size did not do the trick but needed to be done anyways to get the thumbs i needed to install kdegraphics-strigi-plugins greetz ferdi -- Ferdi Thommes 2.Vorsitzender sidux e.V. _ we are sidux - resistance is futile - you will be assimilated -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

You need or Debian or Sidux needs to give us back our old KDE 3.5 Your statement is very general. We at sidux will release KDE4 properly integrated with sidux-2009-02 but if your complaints are pointed at KDE4 in general, you might want to look at different desktops. Many people have installed KDE4 to sidux in the past few days and it is mostly very fine except for a few glitches. Thanks to debian-kde team for the hard work and an overall good release. greetz devil -- Ferdi Thommes 2.Vorsitzender sidux e.V. _ we are sidux - resistance is futile - you will be assimilated -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

If there is anyway to keep the legacy KDE functionality I would appreciate it. As I can't myself liking KDE 4.x any more than I like Gnome. I hope you will be doing an xfce release as well for 2009.02. My immediate solution was a complete reinstall of 2009.01 in order to continue using KDE 3.x What I miss most in KDE 4 is a good taskbar, and konqueror just as it was in 3.x Of course we will release sidux-2009-02 with xfce as well as with KDE4. But as far as sidux is concerned KDE3 is dead and gone. greetz devil -- Ferdi Thommes 2.Vorsitzender sidux e.V. _ we are sidux - resistance is futile - you will be assimilated -- Ferdi Thommes 2.Vorsitzender sidux e.V. _ we are sidux - resistance is futile - you will be assimilated -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Hi, I can only speak behalf of the unofficial backports on debian-desktop.org. At the moment I will have no intention to backport kaboom. This is mostly due to the fact that I had yet no time to dig into kaboom and analyze its procedures during installation and removal. So I stick to the following for now: - My backport is for Lenny only and I definitely want to have a .kde4 directory. - This will allow users to switch back to kde 3.5 without loosing their data after playing around with kde 4.2. thanks for your reply. i think i have not made myself clear. my quest was if kaboom will be able to switch a kde4 backport to a proper 4.2.2 install in unstable. i guess thats for someone else to clarify. greetz devil Best wishes, Martin -- Ferdi Thommes 2.Vorsitzender sidux e.V. _ we are sidux - resistance is futile - you will be assimilated -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
