Intermittent audio errors at login
by Mary Ellen Foster 29 May '09

29 May '09

I wanted to check if anyone else is seeing this: I'm running Fedora 11(-to-be) with (as far as I know) the default pulseaudio configuration. Sometimes when I log in -- I'd say over 50% of the time but I'm not sure -- everything basically freezes (mouse moves, menus work, but nothing starts) for over a minute. Then I get a dialogue box titled "Removed Sound Devices" that says: KDE detected that one or more internal sound devices were removed. *Do you want KDE to permanently forget about these devices?* This is the list of devices KDE thinks can be removed: - Output: PulseAudio Sound Server (Sometimes the device is "Capture: Default" instead.) Is this just me? I've realised I've been ignoring it for a while because it only seems to happen on login so I forget about it after that, but it probably does deserve some investigation... -- Mary Ellen Foster -- http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/mef/ ICCS, School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336.

Re: kde-4.2.85 landing in kde-redhat/unstable
by Colin J Thomson 28 May '09

28 May '09

Hi, Installation went fine as always :-) Only one problem so far is Gwenview now crashes #190478. Minor problem is shading, when double clicking the Titlebar the window does not hide unless I grab the titlebar and move it. These worked fine in 4.2.3 I'll do some more tests and research on kde.bugs in the week. Thanks to all involved. Colin -- Fedora Rawhide > (F11 Leonidas) Registered Linux user number #342953

Help with akonadi
by José Abílio Matos 28 May '09

28 May '09

I have updated to 4.3 beta 1 and as a general rules it works quite well. There are not many visual differences compared with 4.2.3 and the general feeling is of it to be a bit more polished in every sense. It is really shaping well. :-) The only more serious problem I had is with akonadi. I don't see the same resources I had before. In this specific case my problem is with an ical resource where I have my todos. I have an older copy but it seems that some of the changes have been made to a different place (I suspect the mysql database) but I am not sure how and where to find the missing bits. In this case I though I had all the backups but it seems I was wrong. :-( Is there are place where I can find this information? I tried userbase.kde.org but the information about akonadi is sparse and the rpms don't seem to have any documentation files. Regards, -- José Abílio

27 May '09

Does the KDE-Sig have any plans on putting forward a representative for the elections? I believe I have a valid FAS account and would be willing to place my vote. -- Fedora 10 (www.pembo13.com)

Broken widgets
by Patrick O'Callaghan 27 May '09

27 May '09

Several widgets (or plasmoids, the terminology seems to vary) won't open because something called "ggl" is missing, e.g. The Online Dictionary widgoid says "Could not open the ggl_4 package required for the Online Dictionary widget". This is on KDE 4.2.3-1.fc11.x86_64. I can't find anything about "ggl" in the repos. Anyone know what's going on? poc

Re: KMess rpm?

I don't think that an rpm built that way could get into the repositories because the resulting .spec would be too vague, am I right? Florian wrote: > I put a i586 version for f11 in my repository.
