problems with KDE CD-R(W) Watcher Monitors CD-R(W) Drives Media
Hi everyone, this is just in case someone has the same problem I had. I am not sure if something needs to be done about it or not, ie. if it's a bug or not. I have a problem with the KDE start-up service KDE CD-R(W) Watcher Monitors CD-R(W) Drives Media I am using Ralf's latest .deb packages. This service is running by default, and if it does, it causes the kernel to print the following message into the syslog and the kernel ring buffer, at a speed of around 100 lines per minute. kernel: cdrom: This disc doesn't have any tracks I recognize! I have an scsi DVD drive and an scsi cd writer which never caused problems before. I am not sure which of the discs the message refers to. Whatever is causing these messages to be printed also seems to interfere adversely with cd-burning: sometimes the CD can't be fixated and cdrecord just loops (using X-CD Roast), something which I have never observed before upgrading to KDE 3.1. I can kill cdrecord then, but the scsi cd writer just disappeares from the scsi bus then and I have to restart my computer to get it to be recognised again (also something which I never had to do before, and I had it for more than 2 years now). Stopping the service in Settings - Control Center - KDE Components - Service Manager - Startup Services seems to get rid of the problem. Cheers -Tim

This isn't on my system so it might be from k3b most likely. Please check if you have that installed. If the problem disappears by uninstalling it, please notify Sebastian Trueg who is the author of k3b. somehost [tim] - ~ --- dpkg -l *k3b* No packages found matching *k3b*. somehost [tim] - ~ --- dpkg -S k3b dpkg: *k3b* not found. somehost [tim] - ~ --- locate k3b somehost [tim] - ~ --- locate -i k3b somehost [tim] - ~ --- Looks like I don't have k3b installed.

making realplayer work with konqueror in kde 3.0.4
Hi list, I've googled for this and searched the list, but couldn't find anything (only about plugins, but that's not what I need), so I'm asking here: I'm running KDE 3.0.4 on a debian testing system. I would like konqueror to open a link to a realplayer file in realplayer, but I just can't get konqueror to do this. It works if I choose 'open with...' and then select realplay as application, but I don't want to do that each and every time I want to see a clip :-/ Here's the site I'm browsing: http://www.tagesschau.de If I click on the video symbol, a new konqueror window with the URL http://server/bla/file.ram is opened, which then fails with a pop-up message saying 'could not create view for audio/x-pn-realaudio. The diagnostics is:' (no error msg there). I've tried editing the file associations stuff, but without success. I'd be grateful about any hints. Many thanks in advance. Cheers -Tim
Re: no mosfet liquid 9.5 style - other components there though

I have the color scheme and window decorations but the style doesn't show up - so no translucent menus etc. IIRC you need to set it up/configure it at three different locations: * Preferences - Look Feel - Style Preferences - Look Feel - Window Decorations Preferences - Look Feel - Mosfet's Liquid The colour scheme is not necessary, I think. see: http://www.linuxandmain.com/news/liquid.html (Source code and packaged binaries ... paragraph) Cheers -Tim
