to go back to the main topic:
does claws has card-/cal-dav support?
does it integrate into KDE? i.e. can you sent file from dolphin per

hi,
is there any chance to connect kdepim/akonadi successful to either sogo,
or even better owncloud?

all tries I made with kdepim 4.4.11 & kdepim-runtime 4.8/experimental

how long to go, till we can test kdepim2 (>= 4.8.x.)

at the moment I'm tied to icedove/thunderbird which is another sad story.

I followed your advice and opened up a new thread:

http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=106640

as you can read there as well, I don't now how to reproduce, other then doing 
the normal updates, which did scramble the 
desktop a couple of times in the last half year.
there had been other people on the list, reporting that. (don't find the mails 
at the moment)

for me, I start over with a empty .kde in the next days - again :( :( :(
and will monitor more closely on the config files.
if i find a misbehavior again, smashed config-files, etc. I will report.


have a nice day.

indeed, the soho-plasmoids could not connect to it's server.
but even more strange:
I removed all but one weather-plasmoid, which works flawlessly - and I still 
get the same error & behavior as before.
errorlogs & desktop-freeze, but only 6 times in a row now.


I checked the ~/.kde/share/configplasma-desktop-appletsrc and again, it was 
corrupted, which happend quite a few times in the 
last months. after I removed the aktiv soho-plasmoids, I found 6 leftovers in 
the config file. 
removing these in between KDE newstarts resolved the problem.

corrupted config attached.

do the KDE-maintainers want me to open 2 bugs on that, or do you take it from 
here?

1. plasma-desktop should not freeze on failed plasmoid
aka: Failed to get chart. Updating... freezes 
plasma-desktop

2. ~/.kde/share/configplasma-desktop-appletsrc gets corrupted

I found the following appear every 5 min in my .xsession-errors

which could come from my SOHO-plasmoids.
and is EXACT the time, when the desktop freezes for 3 minutes.

BUT: the point here:

or even, if a plasmoid can't update it's content!

so, what's the difference? 
mine freezes every 5 min because of a couple of plasmoids cannot update it's 
self, even when I have a network-connection.
aka. on a web-server-pbl. they connect to?

plasma desktop hangs

2012-07-01 Thread chymian
hi everybody,

since a while now (at least a year), KDE does have the following behavior:

while the WLAN-connection is stable, every thing is good.
moving my laptop (i.e. to the terrasse) where it often still has a 50% signal, 
the pbls. begin:

while it rechecks/reconnect to the wlan, plasma hangs (menues, systray, etc all 
frozen, kwin still is responsable, can move 
windows) for a minute or 2! that happens on movment and also, while I don't 
move the box - just out of the sky on rechecking 
the connection.

first, I used Network-Manager + plasmoid, which often was not able to 
reconnect. I had to manual stop the manager, sometimes 
reload the module & restart the manager, then wait till KDE realises, that 
there is network again.
after it had lost the connection once, it's keeping me asking over and over for 
the WLAN-secret,  which was already in kwallet 
and too often, the only way out was to complety remove the connection and 
configure it new.

then I moved to WICD, (for the price of loosing my comfortable VPN's setup).
WICD is MUCH more stable, never asks for the password but still hangs 
plasma now and then. but seems to be 80% 
more stable.


since I swapped hardware 4 weeks ago, it dosen't look like a driver/module-pbl. 
to me. (b43 before, iwlwifi now).
I also see this on some laptops of friends, all KDE 4.4 - 4.8, wheezy.
and I checked it with three different WLAN-routers - all same behavior.

so, even if it's a driver-/network-pbl. the basic line here:

plasma should definitly NOT freeze on a lost network connection.

running on
KDE-SC 4.8.4,
wheezy,
wicd 1.7.2.4-2, wicd-kde 0.3.0-2

kernel 3.0 ... .3.5-rc2 (all show the same behavior) 

all I see in the syslog is: wlan dropped connection and is trying to reconnect 
for a while.


any hint's, how to prevent KDE from freezing?
anybody sees the same behavior?
and who get's the bug-report? kde for freezing?, kernel for dropping, one (or 
both) of the network-managers?


since I didn't got an answeer on debian-user for a week, I cross post it to the 
kde-list. sorry for that, but I think I should have 
done this in the first place.

update: since plasma hangs on the described network-problem quit often, it also 
hangs sometimes after switching activities for 
a minute or so.

any hint, how to hunt it down?

cheers, 
günter

as you get different results connecting to sogo, then I did, which versions are 
you running?
my setup:

sogo 1.3.16-1, 
Zentyal 2.2, 
ubuntu 10.4

starting with a new install in a VM:

akonadi-backend-sqlite: does not install in ~/.config/.akonadi/akonadiserverrc. 
(still mysql there)!
connected PIM to my sogo-server:
initial configuration ok.
shows callender & addressbooks in resources.
connect to sogo via https ok.

in KONTACT:
its shows the calender & the entries.
cannot create an entry, which get synced back.
and yes, the read-only-flag is unchecked.

addressbooK:
does show both addressbooks (system & user).
does not show ANY entries in either addr-book. - stays complete empty.

so, no luck here

in my opinion, there are a lot of use-cases which cannot be handled by 
kdepim-runtime 4.4.x. and any effort, to get 4.8.x in is 
higly appreceated.

thx a lot

KDE 4.6 constantly smashing my configs & data - nearly unusable....

2011-04-12 Thread chymian
hi guys,

after a lot of problems with the squeezy/weezy versions of KDE, I updated to 
4.6.1  from exerimental in the hope that the varios bugs and problems I was 
facing would go away... unfortunatley ther are evem more - so much that I 
think of leaving KDE

I runing deb-testing on a MacBook 3.1 (intel core2Duo, 4G RAM) laptop screen 
LVDS1, 1280x800 and ext. monitor via DVI1 1680x1050 (my prim. screen)
kernel 2.6.38-2 (experiemental)

1. after every reboot/restart/login of KDE, the settings from LVDS1 are back 
to 1024x768 - I have to manualy do the settings again and again. even if they 
seem to be correctly default-saved in .kde/share/config/startupconfig:

krandrrc_display_startupcommands="xrandr --output \"LVDS1\" --pos 0x0 --mode 
1280x800 --refresh 59.9095
xrandr --output \"DVI1\" --pos 1280x0 --mode 1680x1050 --refresh 59.8833
xrandr --noprimary"

also, after reboot/restart of kde:
2. my dashboards-layout is always scrambled and often loss of configuration
some of them are not started anymore, 

3. since the update to 4.6.1, the toolbar does not resize correct. once it was 
smaler (due to screenconfig error) it does not resize to full width of the 
screen. only 1280 instead of 1680 aka LVDS1 instead of DVI1-width

4. after a shutdown/init level without KDE, it happend every 2nd/3rd time 
that:
kmail is loosing mails, (last recieved mails are empty...)
kmail is loosing configuration constantly: like filtersettings, view-setup, etc.
but they are still in the config files!!!

5. bluetooth-monolith is started, but does not find any adapter, after each 
reboot.
after manualy restarting bluetoothd deamon while KDE is running, it finds the 
adapter again.
6. my apple bluetoothmouse buttens do not working anymore (sinc 4.6). I can 
move the mouse/arrow, but that's all.

7. kwallet and other apps constantly losing ther config/data files
8. knetwork does not start automated connect and/or looses config-files...

9. comming back from suspend (lid close) funktion keys ar often not working. 
have to restart dbus & pommed helps most of the times.

10. can not set konqueror to use webkit. khtml only.

...and a lot minor problems more, which I even can't remeber at the moment 


all in all, since I installed 4.6 ca. 5 days ago, I have to repair my system 
every day, doing constant backups (1h) of my .kde-dir. and reply nearly at 
every start a couple of config files - what a mess.

since the update from weezy smashed KDE completley, I moved .kde out of the 
way and started over from scratch (-> website: no help for a testing-update 
like that)

I'm glad to help, provide any data etc. if someone jumps on these varios 
bugs...

cheers
chymian
