missing gs fonts in KDE

2002-06-18 Thread Stephen Uhlhorn
Hello-

I've got a stock woody (3.0) box with X4.1 and KDE2.2.2. I recently lost my 
gs fonts in X after playing around with the AA in KDE2.2.2. After I initially 
got KDE running, the gs fonts (helvetica, times, symbol, etc) were available 
to the system. I checked the "enable AA fonts" box in the control center, 
restarted KDE, and noticed that many of the gs didn't look as good. I 
unchecked the AA fonts box, restarted KDE again, and they were all gone. The 
fonts are available to other X apps, but just not KDE. Any ideas where to 
begin, or is this a bug that will be worked out in later releases?

task-kde* for testing/unstable

2001-07-05 Thread Stephen Uhlhorn
Okay guys, now I'm confused...and reading thru the archives has not helped. I 
just gave my potato box a woody, i.e.- stable->testing. I'm reading through 
the archives about all these great new AA features, and where the docs are, 
etc. But the thing I find most puzzling iswhere are the task-kde* debs? I 
really liked my potato box, and I'm new to the testing/unstable thing, so 
don't be too harsh...I'm a very sensitve person. Are there any task packages 
in testing/unstable? ...and where is that task-anti-aliasing package I read 
so much about? Thanks.

Sheepishly,
Stephen

woody?




lost kscreensavers

2001-05-13 Thread Stephen Uhlhorn
kscreensavers seems to have been lost on my last update (potato). In the 
control panel, the names of the screensavers are listed, but selecting them 
has no effect, i.e.- can't "setup" or "test" them. However, you can see the 
screesavers by starting K -> System -> ScreenSaver Preview. Any ideas?

possible new kde.tdyc.com location

2001-03-17 Thread Stephen Uhlhorn
Sorry for being a little late on this one guys...been really busy this week. 
I wanted to offer some help on this issue because I think it's so important 
and I REALLY appreciate all the work Ivan does for all of us.

Ivan- What kind of connection do you need for the kde/potato master server? I 
have access to a 10Mbit internet connection that you could plug your box into 
to use for the master server, assuming you would be doing the remote 
administration.

Another possiblilty is that I could donate an old box (P200) that is 
collecting dust to use for the master server assuming a good connection is 
all you need. It would be way too slow to build packages, but might be okay 
as a your master server.

kcheckpass fails to authenticate

2001-03-09 Thread Stephen Uhlhorn
This morning I upgraded the kde packages that were available for potato. 
After I locked my screen in KDE, I was unable to unlock it (log back in). I 
then killed the x-server and tried to log back in thru kdm...no dice. KDM 
would not let any users log in...even root. There were no problems loggin in 
to a normal shell however. I found this in /var/log/auth.log:

Mar  9 10:30:19 cartman kcheckpass[499]: authentication failure for user 
uhlhorn [uid 1000]

Anyone know what happened?

Thanks,
Stephen
