nntp (aka, usenet) client in kde?
by Gene Smith
I currently use t-bird with an nntp account pointing to gmane to read
this list and sereral others. Does kde have an nntp client program of
any sort? I don't see it as a possible new account type in kmail. Also,
search with kpackagekit yields nothing with "usenet" or "nntp" that is
kde specific.

Kate not installed by default on Fedora 16
by Sonic
Hi..
I just found out that Kate was not installed by default on Fedora 16
even though I had selected 'KDE Software Development' during
installation. KDevelop is installed, but not Kate.
Was this a concious decision or a mistake?
regards,

tracker in KDE
by Martin (KDE)
Hallo
Yesterday I upgraded from F15 to F16. This went smoothly (almost) but
after the restart there were ugly processes running and tacking much of
the CPU power: tracker-*
AFAIK these processes are the "nepomuk" part of gnome and I don't need
them. Why are the tracker processes activated in a typical KDE environment?

Anyone using Horos KDM theme?
by Ian Pilcher
If so, are the last few pixels of the last character of the hostname cut
off?

Can't logout of kde 4.8
by freeslkr
I can't logout/restart/shut down from a KDE session. Nothing happens. I'm on
Fedora 16 with the kde48 repo enabled. I've tried it running kdm and gdm. I
can logout of a GNOME session running either display manager. I've recently
upgraded from Fedora 14, and this hasn't worked since the upgrade. I can
suspend and switch user. Is anyone else having this problem, or does anyone have
ideas?
Thank you.

Wayward printer setting
by Anne Wilson
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
My printer is set up to have two profiles - one for every day duplex
printing, and one for 2-up printing, since we don't have full brochure
printing ability.
I recently used the second profile, and since then I find that the
flip is set to short-side every time I start to use the first profile.
Hplip says it is set to long-edge.
System Settings > Printer Configuration says it is set to long-edge.
The print-job pop-up says it is set to long-edge
CUPS says it is set to long-edge
So where on earth can it be finding the short-edge setting?

A question about "focus follows mouse"
by George R Goffe
Hi,
I'm running with "system settings -> window behavior -> focus follows mouse" and am having problems with the focus sometimes NOT being the widget where the mouse pointer is located.
I have alt-up set to raise a widget and alt-down to toggle up/down behavior. Am I misunderstanding how this setting should work. When I raise/lower widgets, the focus does NOT always follow the mouse.
Thanks,
George...

kontact make me creazy
by Mario Santagiuliana
Hi to all,
I am using kontact/kmail to manage my emails accounts.
I have a lot of data to manage, I have a lot of filter to apply to my
emails. Before kmail2 no problems, nothing! From kmail2 kde and kontact are
impossible to use.
Kmail2 use akonadi and all time I open kontact I need to wait 5-10 minutes
before I can see one email.
mysqld use all my cpu too much times. I am on laptop, if I am using battery
it is better for me to don't open kmail and view my emails because the cpu
is nearly all the time at 100% usage from mysqld akonadi and
akonadi_nepomuk (I don't enable nepomunk on systemsettings, I don't need
it).
Every time kmail auto-downloading emails from server I have a windows that
asking me how to resolve a conflict of downloaded emails.
I don't understand how to resolve all of these issues.
I am using kde-pim 4.7.4.
Have you got any suggestion?

ConsoleKit-x11 is missing in F17 RC3
by Martin Kho
Hi,
After loggin a nasty message is telling ConsoleKit is missing. Installing
ConsoleKit alone isn't enough. The ConsoleKit-x11 package 'kills' the message.
