I can confirm this problem. But I never lost mail, the messages always have 
already been sent - so I guess kmail deletes the mails from the outbox, but 
not from some index structure, and then regenerates the empty mails because 
"it knows they are there". (I always immediately send mail, so I don't know 
what happens if you let mail queue in kmail)

Could it be that some of your partitions are full, and X fails because of

compiling koffice 1.2.1 in Woody with KDE3.1.3

2003-09-09 Thread Ted Wang
I managed to compile koffice 1.2.1 using the debian sources (by Ben Burton) that requierd automake 1.5 and other stuff existing in woody.  I also had to resolve somepath issues with QT3 libs and headers and install more packages that werenot found during configure.The only problem I have right now is that the documentations are notinstalled.  If I go to Khelpcenter I can see the help item for kword butclicking on it does nothing.  But the source contains docbooks for all theprograms in koffice and "make install" or "make install all" didn't installthem.Looking at the config.log I only see "dot" is missing.  But I don't knowwhat that is.What I'm I missing?TIA-tw

2003-09-09 Thread charlie derr
I have an install of sid on my laptop (with non-free sources) and the 
only software on the machine that doesn't come from .deb files is the 
0.2 version of thunderbird (mozilla mail/news client).  I do use kde 
(straight from sid) and X 4.3 (from Daniel Stone) (though there is 
probably a way to solve this problem independent of my particular 
desktop environment).

Thunderbird automatically "makes a link" out of any http[s] url that it 
finds in incoming mail, but clicking on it doesn't actually do anything. 
 I can right click on the link, (and choose "Copy Link Location") and 
then paste that link into the browser of my choice (mozilla or 
konqueror), but this is slightly cumbersome.  Does anyone have any 
suggestion as to how I might be able to configure something so that when 
I left click (or middle click) on the link in my thunderbird mail client 
that it would automatically open a new browser (window or tab -- i don't 
care which) for either mozilla or konqueror?

thanks so much in advance,
~c

Just a though, would your PAM (pluggable authentication modules) config have 
anything to do with the first problem (someone more knowledgable please 
comment here).

And for the second, after X crashes could you get and post a copy of 
/var/log/XFree86.0.log ? Might contain some useful information.

Just a short note: this has nothing to do with either Debian or KDE.

Thank you, Miguel. But ... is it a bug or a feature? ;-)

What is the output of running the following commands on your system?

apt-cache policy kdebase
dpkg -l kdebase

I suspect that you already have KDE 3.1.3 installed.

It is an unresolved bug in the code. The Mozilla folks are still working 
on this and hope to have it resolved in the next revision.

It is annoying as hell and I wish there was a way to get around it untuil 
it is fixed. I simply went back to using the Mozilla mail client until it 
is fixed.
