KDM 3.0.3 7 minute startup
I'm trying to help a friend of mine install KDE 3.0.3. I added the kde.org apt lines and installed arts, kdebase and kdelibs. KDM starts up fine. However, when he logs in it literally takes about 5 min for him to see a desktop. The little splash screen pops up and it gets to "starting system services" and goes no further. Then the splash screen disappears after a couple minutes. And it sits there looking at the background image. And then after a bit more time the desktop comes up. I can only guess that it's waiting on some device to time out or something. I see nothing strange in the .xsession_errors file. Anyone have any ideas? Saadiq
Re: KDE based programs won't run as user
This is only a guess... but sounds like a permissions issue. I would try logging out of KDE, logging in on the console, deleting the files listed below from your home directory and then trying KDE again.

kdm sourcing .bash_profile?
I know I've seen this discussed before but I couldn't find it in the
archives. I have these lines in my .bash_profile:
if [ -d ~/bin ] ; then
PATH=~/bin:"${PATH}"
fi
When I login on the console it behaves as expected. However, when I
login using kdm I don't get ~/bin in my path. What was the prevailing
opinion on how to solve this?

Re: Where did kde3.geniussystems.net go?
Do you use TW Road Runner? Their name servers are awful. I seem to have lost geniussystems as well. Use a web service or something to do a dns lookup and replace the hostname in your sources file with the IP. That should work 'til Road Runner recovers.

ldap kioslave in kde 3.0.1
I'm using the kde 3.0.1 experimental debs and trying to get the ldap kioslave working. Is there any reason the ldap kioslave shouldn't be working? I'm trying to get ldap access in kaddressbook. I have libldap2 installed and I'm trying to test it but I'm not having any luck. I just wanted to check if it should be working or not. Thanks.

Re: Qt (>= Qt 3.0.2) (library -mt) not found
apt-get install libqt3-mt-dev That should do it. The libraries allow you to run files compiled against that library. However, to actually compile something, you need header files and possibly other stuff included in the *dev deb. Good luck.

term messed up in konsole?
Not sure if this is KDE specific but I have noticed it on both my laptop and desktop running sid. It seems that sometimes when I'm on the last line of my konsole window and I type to the end of the line, instead of wrapping to the next line, it seems to start at the beginning of the same line overwriting characters. This is just an aesthetic issue. It is still getting all the characters I'm typing. But it's a little confusing. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

mail notifier success? (korn/kbiff)
Anyone have any luck setting up a mail notifier? I've been playing w/ korn for a few minutes but it just quietly refuses to work. No error messages. No debugging info. No nothing. It just does nothing. Anything I should know about it? I tried looking for kbiff as an alternative but it doesn't seem to be packaged in debian. Is that correct? Thanks for any insight. Saadiq
kpackage dependency conflicts w/ another kpackage dependency (rpm)
I only write because this is mildly amusing. I have kpackage installed on my box. kpackage depends on rpm and librpm0. I do a sid update just now. rpm has been upgraded. It now depends on librpm4. And librpm4 conflicts w/ librpm0. So I decide to uninstall rpm. I don't really need it. Ahh, can't do that. Because kpackage insists it depends on rpm. So, I can't have rpm and kpackage installed at the same time because of dependencies, but kpackage depends on rpm. ;-) I want to take this opportunity to sincerely thank the maintainers for what they do. Things occasionally go wrong. But there are a lot of people that work to try to keep all of these pieces working together. It really isn't easy. Keep up the good work. cheers saadiq

Re: hanging in konqueror
I've noticed this problem as well. However, I don't use Konq for file browsing as much so I notice it mostly when I open it to browse web pages. Right after opening the window, everything will be fine for a second. Then I'll attempt to type an url in or something and responsiveness will just fall off. Even clicking the close window button in the top right takes almost a minute to take effect. I first noticed it maybe a couple weeks ago, like Justin said. It's intermittent. I usually close it and open another konq window and it works fine. *shrug* On Sun, Nov 18, 2001 at 01:31:39PM -0500, Justin R.

konqueror image preview size limit

kamera?
I'm looking for something on Kamera, the KDE gphoto2 frontend. I'm not sure where to find the specific packages or even if it is already installed. The gphoto page says it exists. http://gphoto.net/gphoto2/ TheKompany page says it is a part of KDE. http://www.thekompany.com/projects/gphoto/download.php3 KDE help finds nothing. I can't even find anything with `locate kamera`. TheKompany page also says that once KDE2 is installed I should be able to access the kamera control panel under "Peripherals" in the KDE Control Panel. Does anyone have any hints on where I might look too see about getting this up and running? Thanks. Saadiq
