3.4.0-0pre1 kopete suffering from severe icq bug(s).
Is it possible to update the kopete package to fix the annoying kde bugs 101303,101713,102807? After some time kopete ,icq part, doesn't accept new messages, disconnects and doesn't show that it has been disconnected. Which all in all makes kopete and icq kinda useless since you can't be sure you are online :) A fix was commited a couple of days ago in the 3.4 branch.

konq cervisia and bookmark toolbar.
Hi, Was there a resolution for the problem that the bookmark toolbar is always showing up when changing to cvs frontend mode in konq filemanagement? I'm on 3.4.0 atm, and if I remember correctly the problem was on 3.3.x also, but haven't seen any resolution for the problem yet, so if somebody could hint me to the right direction I would be happy.

3.4.0 kcontrol-peripherals-mouse-logitech problem
Hi, The logitech options in the logitech tab are all greyed out, when logging in as a normal user, when logging in as root in kde, the options are not greyed out but it's still not possible to change any values. I have a mx 1000 laser mouse. According to the helppage (help:/kcontrol/mouse/index.html#logitech-mouse) this should be set up by the distribution but that doesn't work in debian packages, so is there a chance that this will be addressed in any way?

Re: winkey (tuxkey) for launching k-menu problem
Hey, I finally found success in configuring this. Use the Control Center = Regional Accessibility = Keyboard Layout = Xkb Options to Enable xkb options and Third Level Choosers Press any of the Winkeys to choose 3rd level and hit Apply. Then, go to Keyboard Shortcuts = Global Shortcuts and under Panel Popup Launch Menu choose customize and just hit the Win key. On mine, it labels it ISO_Level3_Shift, instead of Win key. Now, hit Apply in the lower right corner. I don't use the Win keys for anything else, so it doesn't matter to me that they are now mapped to ISO_Level3_Shift, whatever that means. Fantastic, Thank you Paul!!! I don't use the win key for anything else either so it works for me too. Cheers Robert -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

I learned to report bugs, got the courage to borrow kword from sid and the crash is gone. Now I'm wondering whether anybody has noticed this and has a solution: I'm running XFree86 4.1 and have the XkbOption ctrl:nocaps enabled, i.e., my Caps-Lock should behave exactly as Ctrl. This used to really be so until the last KDE upgrade in woody, my kwin now is version 2.2.2-1. If I do desktop-switching through Ctrl-Tab, everything is fine. If I do it through Caps-Tab then things get quite messed up: the keyboard no longer works at all, the mouse pressed in xterm-s behaves as if Ctrl was being held down (gives VT menus, which seem to work), and the only way I've found out of this is to use the mouse to open yet another xterm and then click some more and then... well not sure due to what but eventually things get back to normal in most cases. I believe I tried this with some other window managers and I think I once ran xev on this---the problem does seem to be kwin specific and I don't think I got much smarter from xev. This is kind-of along the lines of some reported problems about alt-tab switching in older kwin-s but different. Does anybody know what's going on? Is kwin trying to do something funny with what xkb should be taking care of? I guess I should enter a bug, right?

Re: kwin, ctrl:nocaps and caps-tab messes up keyboard
But the logout problem with the nVidia driver must ;) be a kde problem, cause it work beautifully in kde version 2.0 and 2.1. I have upgraded since 2.0 so it might be some configfile still around and messes things up. On the other hand I have the same problem at work and there I made a clean woody install, and other people at work have the same problem. One funny thing is that the first time one presses logout you are kicked back into kde again, but if you press logout then again, you are almost everytime logged out as you should be??

I belive this is related to the Nvidia (closed source) driver I'm running. But it doesn't seem to affect other window managers so I'm not sure if it's a kde bug or not? Martins, are you also running the nVidia driver? I'd be surprised if it was a KDE problem, since it doesn't know what key was *really* pressed. :) d -- Daniel Stone [EMAIL PROTECTED] wolfie 0 .. 1.. 10.. 11.. 100.. wolfie counting is easy dude
kstart folder problems.
Hi all. I have some problems with kstart. I have the following in my .kde/Autostart folder. cat startgkrellm.sh #!/bin/sh kstart --skippager --skiptaskbar --alldesktops gkrellm This is supposed to start gkrellm and not show it in the taskbar but be visible on all desktops. If I run the command from the command line everything works ok, but if kde itself starts it as it should, it's started alright but the -skippager --skiptaskbar --alldesktops options doesn't have any effect. Anybody that knows how to solve this problem? Or am I doing something wrong here? Kstart version is 1.9 Kde is 2.2.2 Cheers /Robert
Re: Logout problem 2.2.1
to work around the problem, you can disable the auto-relogin (in the login manager setup, tab convenience). This wasn't enabled in the begining So I guess it's no point in turning it on either. I have this problem on 3 machines. whoops ... that's sorta strange ... are they mostly identical? Hmmm, kinda, all run X 4.1 and with the proprietary nvidia driver, kde 2.2.1 latest, and a mix of woddy/unstable... The X server doesn't crash when I'm logging out, from what I can see in the logfiles, so I'm going blank again.. Cheers with a big glas of vodka. /Robert
Logout problem 2.2.1
I have some problems with the logout function in kde 2.2.1. When I press logout I starts to log me out but after a while the splash screen apears again, and I'm logged in again? Anybody that knows how to resolv this problem? It hasen't been this all the time, but after a upgrade of 2.2.1 for about 2 weeks ago it started, and I'm going blank out what it is. I have this problem on 3 machines. Cheers /Robert
