personally I prefer to use software that is high quality and does what I want, which some KDE software does not do. You can sit around waiting for protocols to be added that other software already has and moan about wanting it, but i'd rather just use the others that already have it, lol.

trillian has myspace messenger in it. So I cant see why kopete can't. You can also use xfire on trillian. So just hold on a bit trillian is going to be avaible on linux, windows and Mac, just have to wait for it to come out of alpha go into beta and be released. I actually think trillian on linux will wipe kopete out. I plan to change to trillian simply for the myspace and xfire plugin

I'm trying to scan some photo's, When I installed Opensuse 10.2 it detected the scanner and installed the drivers for it. But when I try to scan the photo it includes the white background in the scan image of the back of the scanner. Is there anyway to set Kooka so that all that is int he image is the photo and not the white. Example instead of the image being the size of a photo it ends up being the size of an A4 sheet of paper as it includes all the white background from the scanner. Do I make...

Quoted Originally posted by xTermOS KDE should not look like MS Windows. It's sad, but they are very similar And perhaps windows shouldn't look like a Mac. Who honestly cares what things look like, that is what themes are for. All I care about is performance, and a decent email client. Sigh, Windows new e-mail client looks nice, apple's previews of their new email client look nice. Thank god for the ease with opensuse of using evolution in kde.

i think I have worked it out. When I burnt the disk I included hidden files in the burning which I think has screwed it up. I can access the dvd through XP with no problems. But when I try to access it through opensuse, it just comes up no such file or folder, unless I open it with k3b. I tried burning the exact same files excluding the hidden files and it has burnt perfectly. But again, once I include the hidden files is where the trouble seems to be. Don't know what the hidden files are, somet...

hi thanks for your reply. I'll do that in the morning, getting late here. But just a thought, it's the only dvd it does it with. All the others, as well as two others I burnt at the same time load perfectly.

I'm not sure this is really a k3b problem, but alas. I burnt a dvd with a pile of files on it. K3b told me the burn was succesful, listed no errors, so I deleted the stuff from my computer. Now, when I put the dvd into the computer I get told that no such file or folder exists, and looking and the dvd appears empty, however when I browse the dvd through k3b I can see all the files there, along with a pile of duplicates that shouldn't be there. But still if I try to drag the file and copy it from...

personally I think porting kde to windows and mac is a waste of time, I very much doubt many people will use. I would love to be proven wrong, and see people pick it up and start working on kde applications, but looking from the point of view of a windows user who recently switched to linux, I see no reason to use kde on windows. And then looking at apple, and comparing it to kde, I personally think using kde on apple would be like downgrading. When you have such feature rich e-mail programs on ...

Aleksandersen, that's the kind of view that I guess keeps kmail rather ugly and anal retensive with secruity. It's also a view that needs to change if the linux community wants to grow, wants to convince windows users to switch to linux. I hate the fact that if I get photo's I have to open them up to view, I hate the fact that I cannot write the sort of graphical e-mails I used to write on windows, which is why I dumped kmail and am looking for a replacement. You may think html is the work of ev...

I only switched to linux, from windows not long ago, after researching online it seemed that KDE was the popular way to go so that is what I went with, haven't tried gnome. But there are a few things that annoy me with kde, maybe they can already be done, I am not sure, but i personally like to not have programs on my computer that I don't want there, and remove things that I wont use, however it seems impossible to do this with kmail, if I want to use a different e-mail client it seems I have t...
