Quoted Originally posted by dkmweeks It's too bad about artsd. I liked it. I think it has great potential. It was the best available solution for the KDE desktop at the time it was adopted. But it had its problems, too, that could not be solved, like high latency. That made it unsuitable for some applications. No doubt that the next solution will be even better because the knowledge of what's important has grown. Both gstreamer and NMM look promising.
Quoted Originally posted by dkmweeks If we could get artsd in as a module, or even part of the kernel, participating as it does now ... Arts is already dead and on its way out. It had exactly one maintainer who quit some time ago so don't expect any more development (maybe some bugfixes, but nothing more).
Quoted Originally posted by gnumdk kdemm will be able to use gstreamer, xine, helix, ... You will have choice ! But i think gstreamer will be the default... kdemm will cover the basic stuff, like a game needing a simple way to say "Play that sound file for me." and it can forget about the rest. For advanced control over the sound output the app will still need to know about the specifics of the underlying sound system and thus it won't be switchable unless the app supports more than just the de...
Quoted Originally posted by Pasi Niemela I'm desperately trying to figure out how to create application window without any borders. The X server is XFree86 version 11.0 KDE version is 3.1.3-6.2 Red Hat Kernel version is 2.3.21-4.EL I think KDE (KWin) got that capability with KDE 3.3 (there's a Window Settings module in the Desktop section). Any chance to upgrade KDE?
Quoted Originally posted by Deepblue Is it possible to hide the controlbar all the time? I've designed a Karamba-theme and so i don't need it any longer. And its a little bit annoying when the bar always pops up if my mousecursor gets to the bottom of screen. So is there an (easy) way to hide the bar all the time? Do you mean the panel (a.k.a. kicker)? If that's the case then see the entry "Getting Rid of The Panel": http://wiki.kde.org/tiki-index.php?page=…=panel#id227085 Quoted Originally pos...
Quoted Original von Klato Ok I've got those, but they will not install because my kdelibs4 and misc other libraries are not the latest version....and I can't find a place to download the packages for these....are they even available as packages..or? Thanks! Yes, they are available as packages, but you haven't stated what version of Debian you're running. If it is Debian stable then you would have to update quite a few packages to versions not belonging to the "Debian stable" distro. You'll have...
Quoted Original von Klato Hey guys, Do you know where I can find a stable debian package release of amaroK? Been searchin for a while but haven't come up with anything, and I'd really like to give this a try since I really don't like xmms... Thanks! Depends on how you define stable. - Debian as in "Debian stable" a.k.a. Woody? Then I don't know. - Stable as in "stable enough to be useful"? Then you might try the packages at kalyxo.org: deb http://archive.kalyxo.org/kalyxo/ staging main deb http...
Quoted Original von daihard Yeah, I looked at the patch, too, but I'm not sure what this additional function will actually do. I ran "man XReparentWindow" but didn't really undestand the description well. I guess I need to know a bit about X Window programming. Not as a user, of course. I just also found it strange that the most current stable version from www.rdesktop.org was considered too old so I took a look...
Quoted Original von daihard Now I ran "krdc," however, it complained that the version of rdesktop (1.3.1 - the latest) was too old! The error message also said the patch to make it work was available on KDE CVS. Doh! I looked in the konstruct directories hoping the patch was there too. I lucked out... found "rdesktop.patch" in one of the subdirectories. I've taken a look at the patch, and it adds an option so that it can be embedded in other windows. That capability seems to be required by krdc...
Quoted Original von daihard The irony is that while I was playing with rdesktop, I found that it had more configuration options than krdc. For instance, krdc does not allow you to set the colour depth while rdesktop does. I've spent some time getting krdc to work, but I may end up sticking with rdesktop... I'd expect useful new features of rdesktop to appear in krdc sooner or later, too. So you may want to check it again in the next version of KDE (or even ask the author for it, by posting a wi...
Quoted Original von atrox Hi! I started to set up a flashplayer for my konqueror (on FreeBSD 5.3 and KDE 3.3.1), but I can't find the plugin tab from "settings -> configure konqueror" - I'm pretty sure it's missing So why? How can I set it up there? thanks in advance, Silver It should be in the dialog you looked in. Almost at the bottom of the left icon view. It's just called "Plugins".
Quoted Original von daihard That's good to know. The only thing is, I don't have "rdesktop" anywhere on my computer. I guess I should download it from somewhere and try it. Since I built KDE 3.3.2 using konstruct, I looked at its directories to see if it included rdesktop. It didn't. Thanks for the pointer, though. I'll let you know how it goes. For me it was pretty simple: Just "apt-get rdesktop" and it was downloaded and installed automatically. Dunno how the package management of Turbolinux ...
Quoted Original von daihard Every time I run krdc with the following server name, I get the error dialog box saying "Could not start rdesktop; make sure rdesktop is properly installed." [code:1]rdp:/daihard-xp:1[/code:1] The exact same syntax works with the older version of krdc. I happen to have tried this yesterday, got the same error message and did what the message suggested: Check if rdesktop was installed. It wasn't ;-) After installing it krdc worked for me (on Debian testing wit...
Quoted Original von brucehohl With regards to backup and restore of address book does anyone know the exact file that contains the address book? I've looked in ~/.kde but can not locate the exact file to backup. Thanks. Check ~/.kde/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf
Quoted Original von justxaxgothxx Edit: Any idea where I can get KHotkeys? Chances are you already have it. It's not a separate program but a module in the KDE control center: Try Alt-F2 kcontrol Regional and Accessibility -> KHotKeys
Quoted Original von mart_k kdesu kconfig I guess you mean "kdesu kcontrol"...
Quoted Original von Circle One other thing...is there a program out to convert the .xml log files created by the Kopete History Plugin into normal old .txt files? Also, where are the log files kept? I used to know, but then I forgot and I can't seem to find them again... Thanks! They're under .kde/share/apps/kopete/logs/ I don't know of any program to convert them to plain text. You could probably write an XSL and use xsltproc to convert them...
Quoted Original von kejpi I'm using Gentoo Linux. There are meny bugs :-/ I have been searching for this and haven't succeeded. But seems to me that if this is the bug there should be someone else who has the same problem not only me. Did you find a related bug report at bugs.kde.org then (I didn't)? I was able to repoduce the problem here with an .mpg file. Either it does not always happen or it depends on the file type. The image I tested with worked here although it's saved under /tmp/kde-us...
Quoted Original von kejpi Hi all, after upgrading my KDE to 3.3.1 I've found a problem with opening mail attachements from Kmail. When clicking on attachemet e.g. video file selecting "Open with Kaffeine" it opens Kaffeine but with link to nonexistent file (e.g.: /tmp/kde-user/video.wmv_[N7K8Pa].wmv but the file is located in /tmp/kde-user/kmailSOMETHING/). The same is for images. Do you know what could be wrong? Is it a bug? Thanks for any help. Petr Yes, that sounds like a bug. Please check c...
Quoted Original von justxaxgothxx I was trying to compile the newest version of ATK, because i couldnt get the newest one using Yast2, and I do configure and it says it couldnt find "fontconfig" and Yast says its installed..., does anyone know where fontconfig directory is and where the pkgconfig files are so i can make sure the path is correct Check that you also have the fontconfig development package with the header files installed. (I'd try the search functionality in yast2...)
