konq as kfm new annoyances
by Gene Smith 10 Mar '10

10 Mar '10

I still use konq as my kde file manager instead of dolphin mainly for 2 reasons: 1. Can split screen top and bottom (not just left and right) 2. Has bookmarks Anyhow, what I have noticed now with 4.4 is two new annoyances. 1. When anything pops up in konq (as file mgr) instead of a nice small dialog it comes up the exact same size of the konq. window and covers it. For example, when you are copying a file and the name exists at the destination. 2. When you rename a file (F2 or right click rename) konq. scoots the original file name to the left and out of sight while you are typing until you hit enter. (Actually, I just checked and dolphin does this too. I assume konq and dolphin share a lot of code.) I assume these are kde bugs (or issues) and not something fedora12 is causing, but not sure. -gene

Nepomuk resources usage limit
by Dj YB 10 Mar '10

10 Mar '10

hello, is there a way to limit Nepomuk resources (cpu / memory) usage, and even better that it will only work while the session is idle for some time... I will be glad to have this kind of setting, thanks, YB.

Thanks for the updates
by Arthur Pemberton 10 Mar '10

1) just tab-grouped my first pair of windows, sweet. 2) copy and paste seems to work in Eclipse now, not sure what happened but I'm hoping it stays so (it previously had an unfavourable reaction with Klipper) -- Fedora 11 (www.pembo13.com)

KDE 4.4.1 in Updates-Testing?
by Mitchell Richters 09 Mar '10

09 Mar '10

Hello, I was just wondering when 4.4.1 might hit Updates-Testing. 4.4.0, a major release, did not take this long to hit testing (I think). I looked on Koji and there's only one build of kdelibs and kdenetwork for FC12, surely that must they're stable enough for distribution? I haven't seen any emails through on the list with anyone mentioning showstoppers... Cheers, Mitch.

RFC: Minimum requirements for default applications
by Rex Dieter 09 Mar '10

09 Mar '10

Here's a very basic proposal that came out of discussions that happened primarily leading up to and at FUDCon Toronto. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Rdieter/FUDCon_Toronto_KDE_F13_TODOs I'll have to clean that page up, and move it to the /KDE namespace, but the basic idea is that we should set some basic criteria to help choose default applications for our fedora kde spin. Based on this objective criteria, it will help us make wiser (and defendable!) choices. I should point out that at our last SIG meeting, it was agreed that criteria should be separated between 'minimal/required' and 'nice-to-have' ones. This, I haven't done yet (sorry). Anyway, the type of feedback we're looking for here is brainstorm: 1. different types of default apps (ie, those not listed yet). 2. new/different selection criteria. for example, it should probably be explicitly mentioned that we would give a slight preference for native qt/kde applications. 3. criticism of criteria already listed. Thanks. -- Rex

Sorry, but that's the impression we got from this mail: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/devkit-devel/2010-January/000691.html And wasn't saving power by not doing polling one of the reasons you want to do away with HAL in the first place? But it may be just us being confused, so please enlighten us! Kevin Kofler

Dolphin tabs
by Petrus de Calguarium 09 Mar '10

09 Mar '10

I have 3 hard drives and like to keep one tab for each drive open. Whenever I start Dolphin, however, it opens with only one tab, even though I closed it with 3 tabs open. Is there a way to make Dolphin remember that it was closed with 3 tabs and to reopen each tab to the default location for each (likely the root of each of my hard drives)?
