System notifications not working
Hi List. Ever since KDE 3.3 my system notifications haven't been working (ie the sounds when KDE starts up, and certain error sounds I had defined). It was definitely working under KDE 3.1, but it might have gone at the 3.2 upgrade, I'm not really sure when. When I go to the Control Center-> Sound System and "Test Sound", I hear the jingle just fine. However, going to the system notifications, and clicking on the little "play" button next to a notification, I hear nothing. I'm assuming that somewhere along the way, a new Debian package became used to play these and I dont have it for some reason (this is happening on 3 Debian/Sid/KDE boxes of mine). I'd be grateful for any help as an application has come along where system notifications would make a huge difference.

I remember someone had this problem not much time ago. Hey! it's still in my mailbox Tim Folger wrote: "For anyone who might be interested I managed to fix my sound problems. After reading Adeodato Simo's message a few days ago about the libflac6 issue being solved, I upgraded my system. After the upgrade root had system sounds working again but normal users did not. I finally managed to get system sounds back for normal users by opening ~/.kde/share/config and deleting two files: knotify.eventsrc and knotifyrc. When I restarted kde these two files were regenerated and all system notification sounds were restored." Next time remember to search the archives.
compose key not active before "applying" current keyboard
Hi, I experience the following: I have the following lines in my .Xmodmap !! Third example: Change right Control key to Compose key. !! To do Compose Character, press this key and afterwards two !! characters (e.g. `a' and `^' to get â). remove Control = Control_R keysym Control_R = Multi_key add Control = Control_R After staring the computer, the compose key does not work. Then I enter the KDE control center / Regilnal & Accessibility / Keyboard Layout Here, I have as Keyboard model HP 5181 Internet Keyboard, I change it to a different keyboard and back to the HP 5181. Then I press apply. Immediately afterwards, the compose key works. What is happening here? Thanks for your help, Uli I'm using Debian/Woody
remove trashcan
hi all, I want to _permanently_ remove the trashcan icon on my desktop. Is there a way to do it or is it impossible?? -- On this laptop no Windows system survives and LINUX POWER reigns UNLIMITED.

java fails in konqueror 3.3
I cannot make java work under konqueror 3.3 Everything seems ok with java support installed but konqueror just shows a blank screen with a java code test. If I enable "java console" and "report errors" in java konqueror settings I get a console with: Unable to load JSSE SSL stream handler, https support not available Root has to kill the console to get rid of it. Maybe a package is missing? It is not true there is not https support, there is. I don't think that this massage is the cause of the freeze. -- On this laptop no Windows system survives and LINUX POWER reigns UNLIMITED. Successfully Microsoft free since December 2002.

Ok, I modified /etc/environment:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and removed LC_ALL from /etc/profile. This is the new kpackage output:
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.

Any other ideas?

Thank you very much Matias (and Tim), you were right, that was the problem. I had actually searched the archives but I must have missed the particular reply. Thank you once again. Regards, Andrew
[konqueror] javascript->open() opens 2 windows..
Hi, For example image gallerys often opens a new window for the picture using javascript and the open() command. But the image isn't shown in the new window, instead konqueror opens another windows (a default one) to show the picture. The javascript-window is just white, there is no html-source available. Any idea, what I did wrong? Or is it a bug?
