RE: How to build and install language packages after installing KDE?

Maybe you can ``play'' and find more information about FSF, GNU, free softwares, and try to build some of these free softwares. Most of them use the same way to build.

RE: How to build and install language packages after installing KDE?

If you use ./configure --prefix=/opt/kde && make && make install I think that you don't have to create such directories yourself. The install script should do everything for you, and I think that should be a better way.

RE: How to build and install language packages after installing KDE?

If you want to *build* and *install* language mo files yourself, then checkout l10n directory, checkout script directory, and run script/autogen.sh to create configure script in l10n directory, then go into l10n directory and run ./configure --prefix=/opt/kde where /opt/kde is the KDE installation directory. then, make && make install (maybe need root priviledge if you cannot write into your KDE installation directory) That's all.

Failed to launch auto-mount usb thumb drive directory

Quoted Originally posted by bjlockie Quoted Originally posted by fweng Quoted Originally posted by bjlockie What version of KDE do you have? 3.5.5, as my first post mentioned. I built the whole 3.5.5 myself (checked out from svn/stable) I have no idea then. :-( I assume you have a newish compiler version. Mine doesn't mount as /mnt/removable, everything goes in /mnt I used the Gentoo package though. Thank you anyway. This is a minor problem. I was just wondering if there were settings to change...

Failed to launch auto-mount usb thumb drive directory

Quoted Originally posted by bjlockie When the drive is NOT mounted, is there a /mnt/removable file? No. /mnt/removeable directory was created automatically when USB drive plugged in. This part was OK. I could access /mnt/removeable from console successfully.

Failed to launch auto-mount usb thumb drive directory

Hi, forum. Right now my KDE 3.5.5 can auto detect usb thumb drive plug in. However, everytime when it tried to open mounted directory (e.g. /mnt/removeable), it told me that "/mnt/removeable is a folder, but a file was expected.". I tried to get kde log, the following messages were shown: kded: KURL() media kioslave: MediaList::findByName(sda1) kio (KDirListerCache): [virtual void KDirListerCache::FilesChanged(const KURL::List&)] only half implemented kio (KDirListerCache): [void KDirListerCache...

RE: How to build and install language packages after installing KDE?

OK, I got it. Checkout the scripts/ modules, and run ./scripts/autogen.sh <$LANG>, the necessary files including configure and Makefile will be created. For your information.

RE: How to build and install language packages after installing KDE?

Sorry, maybe I need to describe my question more precisely. I checked out KDE code from svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.5 and compile all the packages I need successfully. However, the UI po/pot files are not there. I checked out the template/pot and our translation/po files in a seperate folder. I don't know if there is a way to "compile" all the po files into .mo files and install them into the correct place. Could anyone please give me some hints about this? Thanks a lot!

[Kopete] Custom emoticons

I've tested this using MSN protocol for a while. My testing receiver is on M$ Windows using MSN messenger 8.0. I found the following facts: 1. If we sent an emoticon THAT RECEIVER DID NOT HAVE, it would not be shown, no matter png or gif file. 2. If we sent an emoticon THAT EXISTS IN RECEIVER's emoticon pool, it could be shown, under certain circumstance: 2.a First time I sent _;-)_ to receiver, but no icon was shown. (underline means space) 2.b Then I sent _;-) to receiver, this time the ;-) ic...

[Konqueror] text being covered

Hi forum, I'm not sure if this problem is a konqueror bug, a plugin bug, or not a bug. So I ask here first. In the site http://udn.com/ (a newspaper media web site in Taiwan), you can see that there are some topics in the left area, which uses javascript. When your mouse points to a topic, a menu will poped out. My problem is: when using firefox (version 2.0rc1), the left menu texts would not be covered by the main area. Firefox's snapshot But when using konqueror (within KDE 3.5.4), the left me...

KDM seems not read kdmrc

Hi forum, I have a question about kdm. It seemed that kdm did not read kdmrc at all. Right now my kdm uses "Welcome to %h" as greet string, which was specified as a "welcome-label" in the theme. However in my kdmrc (/usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc), the greet string (GreetString entry in the group [X-*-Greeter]) is "Welcome to %n". I tried to change this entry using Administrator mode in the KDE control center, but in vain. My kdmrc is version 2.3, which is regenerated by `genkdmconf`, then modified...

Saving attachments in KMail

Quoted Originally posted by Rinse But in what situation is saving files with 600 as permissions not convinient? In Linux, that's the default permission setting for your home directory. Well, for example in my case, Mr. A mailed his applications to me and I had to save them to a position, where Mr. B would sync with it some time later. Right now I have to change the permissions of saved files so that Mr. B could be able to sync (copy) to his machine. Yes, it can be solved using directory sticky ...

Saving attachments in KMail

Hi, thanks for your reply. I agreed with you about the security issue. However, I think it can be (and should be) decided by users. Developers do not need to decide it for users, right? Just like HTML-messages-view problem. It has a security concern to view HTML messages directly. However, if users insist viewing HTML messages directly, you have to let them go. Don't you? So, I think that it would be better to remind users of security problems, and let them decide.

Saving attachments in KMail

Hi, forum. When saving attachments in KMail, it always saved files with permission 0600. Sometimes it is not convenient. Someone reported this to bugs.kde.org 2 years ago, but it seemed that nobody thought it a (need-to-solve) problem. I sent a patch to bugs.kde.org. I added some checkbox in the configuration page, letting users choose if they want to save attachments as user/group/other read/writable, and it worked. (But the interface is ... hmm... quite stupid.) Hope that some kmail developers...
