Plasma 5 Desktop: why do most KDE apps have a KDE 4 look?
So I successfully installed Arch alongside with Kubuntu 15.04 as a dual boot on a USB stick. Now I successfully installed the plasma package, and so far everything looks visually pretty much like stock Kubuntu.
Then I started to install additional kdebase-meta-* packages, and most KDE apps seem to have a KDE4 style/theme, while on Kubuntu the exact same apps have the proper KDE5 look.
For example, the kdebase-dolphin package is at version 15.04, while Kubuntu has dolphin at version 14.12
dolphin on Arch has a KDE4 look, while on Kubuntu it has the new KDE5 look. Most apps have this issue, but not all, like Kate is one of the few that has a proper look.
How is that? Can I change this somehow?
Ahh, I just figured it out, breeze-kde4 has to be installed and then qtconfig-qt4 in a terminal, a GUI will popup and there I can select the Breeze theme. I already had breeze-kde4 installed, but I totally missed the qtconfig-qt4 part. So I uninstalled it because I thought this packages was the reason for the KDE4 look
...anyway, happy so far with Arch and Plasma 5

Why doesnt the netflix app have a continuous playing mode? I shouldnt have to select the next episode every 24 minutes. Even the cheap PS3 Netflix app supports this.
Compared to what?
Does Netflix behave differently on other devices?

Mute KDE Apps in Non KDE Environment (xfce4, gnome, ...)
Hi guys!
I did not find anything useful about the following problem:
I use xfce4 and think it is great (no problem so far). In addition to that krusader is my top browser.
Ok I know that the slickness of xfce is lost if I use kde apps but here is my problem: Everytime I delete a file/dir my sound level goes up to 100% and the speakers (or the headphones) go *BLABLING*.
I know from here [1] and here [2] that this is due to KDE settings.
I don't want to install the whole KDE environment, start it up and untick the System Notifications from there. I want to install that one package that controls them.
On ubuntu the package is called systemsettings [3] but I did not find anything similar in the arch repository.
Here is my uname: 3.18.6-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Feb 7 08:44:05 CET 2015 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Maybe these installed packages are of some relevance:
Xfce 4.12
pulseaudio 6.0
pulseaudio-alsa 2-3
alsa-lib 1.0.29-1
lib32-libpulse 6.0-1 (not quite sure why I have a 32bit package here but I don't think that causes any trouble)
krusader 2.4.0beta3-5
Thanks for any help and sorry if I did not found the same question here on this forum.
Have a great day,
Matt

Why are all my apps have .app at the end
Hi, my apps all have .app at the end, why is that, how can I remove it.
To identify them to the operating system as applications. All applications use the same ".app" extension just like all MS Word documents use ".doc" or ".docx". They provide information the OS needs so it knows what to do when you double-click on a file.
-
why are most of the apps (anything that has to search) on my iphone4 and ipad (1) running very slow (or not at all) since iOS5 update...esp google. Search seems to go quickly, but then when I try to open a link..nothing. I have turned off icloud.
I am having the same problem. Did turning off iCloud work? Did you just turn everything off or did you actually delete the account off your iPod?

Why doesn't the App Store have a Google Talk client FROM Google?
An IM client without push notifications isn't an IM client. I don't know why a person wouldn't just use email as opposed to a Safari-based IM client on a device that can't run Safari+anything (or when the device is idle). Web-based Google Talk is pointless when iPhone user A has to call iPhone user B and say, "hey, let's chat in Google Talk! go to your Google Talk web site and let's start!". just ridiculous.
What's just as silly is expecting people to give a 3rd party your Google Account credentials. From looking at the forums, plenty of people do just that which blows my mind. Think for 10 minutes all your personal information someone has if they have your Google Account credentials. More and more people are nervous at what Google might do with that info and I'm expected to share my credentials with a 3rd party I've never heard of??
What's even more laughable are those that give their "Google Apps" credentials to those 3rd party IM services which is basically for those that use Google for their corporate email, calendar, docs, internal web sites, etc. I mean, that's grounds for dismissal in most organizations (the bottomline is that there is no Google Talk capability for the iPhone if you are a Google Apps customer, for reasons of practicality and corporate compliancy).
Aside from blowing off steam, I'd like to know who is holding up Google from releasing a Google Talk app for the iPhone that has push notification? Is it Google that's uninterested or Apple that prohibiting them? From what little I've found and from where these two are seeming to part ways, it looks like it's Apple holding up Google from releasing this app. If that's the case, I'd like someone to confirm so I (and hopefully others) can start complaining to Apple. Right now this is the biggest reason I'm waiting for at&t to offer an Android-based device instead of buying my first iPhone. I'm tired of waiting but if Apple is holding Google at bay just for an IM client, I can see the writing on the walls and want no part of an Apple world devoid of Google apps. I just soon go with Android and benefit from the software developer that's developing the most useful apps available (google).Official word from Google rep:
"This limitation is not because of Google's relationship with Apple and Apple is not thwarting Google from delivering a GTalk solution"
So my theory gets flushed down the toilet apparently. Oh well! -
[SOLVED] Plasma Desktop segfaults after recent KDE update to ver. 4.6
Today after upgrading some amount of packages, including the new KDE 4.6, my Plasma Desktop "segfaults" every single time I login into my account. I tried to send some information regarding this issue using KDE's internal reporting system, but unfortunately it tells me, that those information are irrelevant. Does anyone experience "segfaulting" of the Plasma Desktop after recent KDE upgrade? I'm looking for some help on how to solve this issue, as for the moment my Arch is dead...

Actually, it is KDE that is giving you trouble, not the OS . When you reach the kdm login screen, don't login. Instead, switch to a tty (Ctrl+Alt+F1, for example) and login from there. Then, you can see a list with all your plasmoids with
plasmapkg -l
If you find the culprit plasmoid, and it is a plasmoid downloaded outside Arch's repos (from kde-look.org, for example), remove it with
plasmapkg -r plasmoid_name
If the plasmoid is installed as a package, it is probably better to uninstall/upgrade it using pacman.

Hi all,
I have the same problem. I tried using tty, but I got "cannot access to X server". Than I tried
Alt+F2 to run Terminal, I used
plasmapkg -l
in order to see the list of all the plasmoids, but I couldn't find the "culprit" plasmoid. I don't know if I am doing it right. Here the list of my plasmapkg:
[encho@x~]$ plasmapkg -l

I want some KDE apps, but not the KDE desktop environment....
I'm on a laptop running Arch (yay!) and I am wanting to install Amarok and KTorrent. However, I don't want the KDE desktop environment, KWin (I use fluxbox), or things like KDM (I use SLiM). Is there a package, like kde-base in Debian, that allows just essential Qt/KDE libraries for applications like Amarok and KTorrent?
Thanks in advance.Aakko wrote:

I would like to change KDE theme. Is there a way to get to KDE control panel from Xfce so I could change the theme?
Assuming you have it installed,
$ kcontrol
or you can use kcmshell with the name of the options module you want to use, eg:
$ kcmshell style
to change the GUI theme. -

Why are most apps only for apple products?
Why are most apps only for Apple products.???
why aren't most of the apps developed for other systems?I am equally disappointed by the lack of Android support.
Just a guess as to why there is so little support for Android ... I'd bet that Adobe is slow to release Android apps because Android is fragmented with a very broad range of versions out there. Even if Android device owners want to upgrade to the latest version of Android, they usually can't get an upgrade -- this may be a problem with the device manufacturer (there are many of them), a mobile carrier or even Google.
iOS devices only have 1 company involved in the update process: Apple. Since iOS is a closed platform - controlled by 1 company who pushes identical updates to most devices - it is a lot easier to maintain a reliable app for iOS users.
I don't want to switch to iOS devices, but I may have to until Adobe steps up its Android development. -

Why is the App Store offering me updates for an App I don't have? Specifically, Apple Remote Desktop 3.7.1 ?
Welcome,
If this is for the Remore Desktop Client Update then you do have it - it's built in to OSX and is used when you want to use VNC clients.
If it's for Apple Remote Desktop then is't for the Admin App that drives the above client and is a paid for product. If you didn't buy this then it shouldn't appear. If it has lucky you!

Plasma Desktop resets if not using KDE
I mainly use MATE Desktop, but with Plasma Desktop for a long time now. It used to work flawlessly, but in the last few days the Plasma Desktop settings are always resets after a reboot or a re-login. The KDE settings are saved correctly, but the Plasma Desktop can be saved only under KDE. I tried do delete the .kde4 folder and set everything again, but after a reboot or a re-login Plasma Desktop always resets if I start any DE except KDE. I even tried to reinstall everything, but nothing worked.
Any ideas?Thanks for the answer , I don't know why some times starts and sometimes it doesn't so I still can check WHY happens, but thanks to your command (really I'm a kind of power user and I didn't know about this command!!) I'll be able to check what is the problem.
Thanks again!
PS.- Should I mark it as solved?

I have an ipad mini 1st gen 64 gb (wifi only) and i have problem with some of my apps. These apps have lags when you play with them for a few seconds the apps are having lags are call of duty strike team, gta San Andreas and nfs most wanted.pleas help me
I'm going to guess videos buffer for a while also...
Two possibilities, one is you should close apps on the iPad, the other is your internet speed is not able to handle the demands of a high speed device.
To close apps: Double click home button, swipe up to close the apps.
To solve internet problem, contact your provider. Basic internet is not enough for video games and movies. Your router may be old and slow. -
Why BlackBerry 10 doesn't have an Email app?
I am surprised that BlackBerry 10 doesn't have a separate Email app.
I know what is the first answer: There is the BlackBerry Hub. Use that!
But then why is there an App for BBM when that is also in the Hub?
The second strange thing is that there is an icon for SMS, but that's not a separate app. It is link to the BlackBerry Hub SMS tab. So there are three types of notifications in the Hub: One that have a separate app (BBM, Phone, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn), one that have an app link (SMS), and one that has nothing (Email, Notifications, PIN). This could be confusing...
Personally I only would like to use the Hub to see all of the notifications I have received. Now when I write an Email I accidentally leave the Hub on the Email tab. After when I receive a Facebook message I cannot see who wrote me because I left the Hub on the Email tab.
Solved!
Go to Solution.Hey mishi,
Thanks for the post.
I appreciate the feedback on the seperate email application. I will pass on this feedback.
In the meantime BlackBerry Hub is used to send and receive emails and i'm not sure if there will be a seperate icon in the near future.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers.
