CapsLock doesn't work in Woody KDE2.2.2
Hi My CapsLock doesn't work in Woody KDE2.2.2. This is strange because it works in the console (Ctrl-Alt-F1). This is also very frustrating because I'm trying to make AOLers believe I'm one of them! If you have any ideas regarding how to fix this, please let me know. Thanks Oleg
layouts don't work in woody
Hi It's impossible to switch the keyboard layouts in Woody KDE: When I go to ControlCenter/Peripherals/Keyboard and select additional layouts, no layout switch appears anywhere on the desktop. Restarting KDE and X doesn't help. Is this a bug? Thanks Oleg P.S. apt-cache search layout | grep -i kde gives nothing, so I'm probably not missing any software.

Sooner or later;) Hi, is there any chance of building kdevelop 2.x for KDE 3.1? I want to switch to 3.1 for development, but Gideon is simply _too_ buggy for my taste (crashed when loading a .kdevprj file, crashed when creating a new project, crashed when trying to open a C++ file, crashed when rearranging the subwindows, ...). I'd like to help, but I've just barely managed to figure out that a leading "~" in C++ means "destructor" so I doubt I'll be much help right now.

No. You do NOT need the Windows libraries. What you need are _special_ DLLs that contain additionall wrappers and stubs for the emulation layer that current players (libavifile for example) use to extract the code from the DLLs. The original windows DLLs don't help. Get w32codec.zip from the mplayer HQ (http://mplayer.sf.net). -- mfg, Jens Benecke /// http://www.linuxfaq.de, http://www.linux.ms This mail is an attachment?

qt3.0.5 & kde 3.0.4 - howto recompile?
I just upgraded from kde 3.0.3 to 3.0.4. I have problems with database connectivity. from the website of trolltech: "Warning: Qt 3.0.5 introduces changes into some aspects of plugins, in particular regarding loading, path handling and library versions. As a result of this change, no plugins compiled with Qt 3.0.4 and earlier will work with Qt 3.0.5 and later: they must be recompiled." This means IMHO one must recompile all kde plugins (if not whole kde) against qt 3.0.5. The question is: how to recompile KDE, Postgrsql & mysql plugins? Regards, Setyo Nugroho

From this I assume that you've got the deb's for kde 3.0.4?! These should already be compiled against the qt version that is stated in their dependecies (look what apt-cache show kde brings up). AFAIK there are no! kde-postgres ore mysql plugins, these are part of the qt library and are separate packages which should also be from version 3.0.5. Though you don't need to recompile these. What has to be recompiled are all the styles plugins from kde and other things that are plugins. In fact here I recompiled whole kde from source, but i don't have kde3 as deb's I ever used self-compiled. Andreas -- F: Was macht bumm- bumm- bumm- quitsch- bumm- bumm- bumm- quitsch ...

Re: qt3.0.5 & kde 3.0.4 - howto recompile?
Hi all, Andreas, yes I used finished deb packages. Meantime I have upgraded my kde from 3.0.4 to 3.0.5. The very similar problem with the database connectivity is still there. Though the database server and client are OK. Another try I made are removing and reinstalling packages related to mysql using apt-get removel and later apt-get install: apt-get install libdbd-mysql-perl libmysqlclient10 libmysqlclient10-dev libqt3-mysql mysql-client mysql-navigator mysql-server A run with a hand-coded qt program, it works fine. Apparently the problem lies within Qt Designer. Thanks for this advice. I will learn how to package them well. Are self-compiled package definitely more stable compared to finished ones? Any help regarding QTDesigner's database connectivity problem is still highly appreciated. Regards, Setyo Nugroho > From this I assume that you've got the deb's for kde 3.0.4?!

Pencam2 KDE blues
Hi, I have a STV*** -style digital camera, an ARGUS DC1500. This is the same camera that works with the package "Pencam2". I'm running KDE 3.0.4 on unstable (SID) debian, 686 computer. I noticed that the images, when I download them to Linux (not Win98 -- that's okay) look dim and blue. Now, with Pencam, there is a setting or flag you can adjust so that they will download okay. But with KDE, I don't know of any such settings. Indeed, when I click setup in "Control Center/Peripherals/Digital Camera", I see "no settings necessary". If I remember, the explanation is that there are 4 bits, and sometimes the bits are set one way, and sometimes they are set the other -- you have to pack them into the image correctly to get the correct results. Does anyone know how to fix this? QUESTION 2 I notice that there are no previews for .pnm files on my pencam. It might be nice to get them. If anyone knows how to get previews there, please say. Otherwise, it might make a good additional development. I know that if I double-click the image, I can view it.

I think if you're using woody and kde3 it doesn't make that much difference, as the deb's are not really in woody. They have not gone through unstable and testing. In general the self compiled things can be more unstable then the deb's and though I would prefer the deb's. (I use the self compiled only because the download size of the deb's is too large for me). > Any help regarding QTDesigner's database connectivity problem is still highly > appreciated.

Relation of debs and KDE CVS?
I consider building KDE from source in order to enable debugging info. I don't expect any problems building the source packages, but what about CVS? Are the debian-related changes flowing back into the main KDE CVS so that it would be possible (with some work...) to build packages from the latest CVS state?
