[Resolved] Problem to start KDE (cannot connect to X server)

Mac iBook PPC, Xorg XDarwin, KDE 3.5.8, installed with Fink. Hi, I have been using KDE for some time now and was happy with it until I got this problem. Now, I can't launch KDE or any other apps like Amarok. I usualy use Xdroplet to launch KDE or any other application and had no problem until recently. Typing "startkde" in the xterm window doesn't work as well. I don't know why this problem occurs, the only thing I did recently is to a full maintenance with Onyx. I have no idea if that is the ca...

[Resolved ]KDE (iBook Xorg) lost sound

Hi, I have no sound at all while using KDE since I update KDE. No sound in Amarok neither! I'm using KDE on my ibook ppc g4 with Xorg.

RE: No sound at all

No, there are no other users logged in. I tryed to enable the sound system in kcontrol>sound system, with the ~/.mcop removed (I didn't find any ~/.mcoprc) I had the same error message then before and a new ~/.mcop was made. Do you have any other idea? Thanks

RE: No sound at all

Hi, Amarok is working fine, but the system sound is not working. typing $ cat /dev/urandom in the terminal gives a lot of strange unreadable thinks and I don't have /dsp in my /dev directory Do I have to set something in /dev/urandom? Or install Alsa? I'm not sure about it. For info, my knotifirc file says: Arts init=false knotify init=true Use Arts=false Thank you for helping.

RE: How to themes and window decorations?

Usually, themes founded in Theme/style>theme manager can be easilly installed with the theme installer that you have in kcontrol. The ones in "kdm theme" can be installed with kdmtheme-1.1 (you will need to install it first) or manually. Also, check the "how to install".

No sound at all

Hi, I installed kde some times ago, all is working fine now except the sound. I have no sound at all and yes Arts is installed (but maybe not well configured?).

I have no idea what I should do I didn't find any helpful hint in the kde home ...

(solved) Problem with kmail and gpg-agent

Hi, I have a problem to see incoming encrypted e-mails. Previously, I had set-up kmail tu use gpg and it worked fine, I could send encrypted mails end decrypt them. Then, I installed gpg-agent to avoid typing my password every time and since, I'm unable to see encrypted e-mails. I have a message that gpg-agent is unable to decrypt the message. Seems to be a problem of password (bad passphrase). OK, gpg-agent is not configured well but now to configure it, I would need to install pinentry, here s...

Hi, I still have a lot of trouble with KDE. Since today, all the settings that were accessible via kcontrol or Konqueror have desapeared.

All applications that were accessible via the kde menu button (bottom left) are gone. If I open konqueror and choose "settings", then it is now empty but was not yesterday. Lots ...
