kmail window settings

2004-02-22 Thread Brad Camroux
Hi all... I just wonder about the window size settings in KMail. I don't like having to resize my messages when I open them so that the text fits properly rather than wrapping the word wrap. Is there some place in settings that I am missing (i.e. not seeing) that controls various window size

Can't Start KDE

I am running unstable and upgraded to the KDE 3.2. The packages I used are located at the repository listed at DebianWiki, i.e. deb http://people.debian.org/~ccheney/kde-3.2.0/ ./ deb http://people.debian.org/~bab/kde-3.2 ./ After a reboot of my machine, to ensure that kdm will start (I

Avoiding aRTs? Getting juk to work with gstreamer

2004-02-22 Thread Michael Schuerig
I don't really need all the features of aRTs, so I'm wondering if there is a way to avoid its use? The only sound producing apps that I'm using are juk, (k)mplayer and xine. The later two work with ALSA directly. Juk has the option of output to gstreamer, but when I tried that, juk crashed sho

aRts Problems with KDE 3.2.0

2004-02-22 Thread James Stark
Hi All, I'm running the experimental KDE 3.2.0 packages on sid. I'm seeing two problems with aRts (I'm assuming that they are related). 1. With all settings for aRts at there defaults, I get CPU overload errors when aRts tries to load (this usually followed by a segfault on knotify). If I c

I had a similar problem mentioned on this group. The solution which worked for me was to change the sound configuration to select ALSA rather that autodetect. Regards Tony Middleton. David Liontooth wrote: At some point in the last couple of days KDE has slowed down dramatically. The loading

KWallet and Amazon

2004-02-22 Thread Michael Schuerig
The pages at Amazon.{com|de|co.uk|...} are generated dynamically in a way that one never visits the same URL in two different sessions. Unfortunately, this seems to foil kwallet as it apparently remembers form data (including passwords) by URL. Is there a workaround for Amazon and similar site
