[SOLVED] kde 4.1 and Quanta+

Since my last upgrade and switch to kde4.1 (it's really awesome) I'm on the verge of panicking since Quanta+ suddenly disappeared. How do I get it back? I realize from other forum posts that certian development libraries have been postponed until 4.2 in which case .... holy crap I'm screwed ... I reeaaaally need Quanta+ back.

@dolby: that's quite disturbing news. I thought Quanta+ was quite popular and attractive to develop on. Though the quanta.kdewebdev.ord website haven't been updated since 2005, I was certian that I've seen several new developed features since. Is there any announcements from the guys who wants to adopt Quanta+?
Bluefish and Nvu are problably both very capable, but it'll be hell to switch since I've spent years adapting to Quanta+

  • [SOLVED] kde 4.6 and Udisks mounting problems with Dolphin

    Hello,
    I have a problem with Dolphin in KDE 4.6 where it displays my non-Arch partitions (a / and /home used for Opensuse) as well as a CD-Rom or usb if inserted, but registers an error when I click on the device/partition icon. Specifically, I get the following error displayed at the bottom of Dolphin:
    An error occurred while accessing Hard Drive, the system responded: org.freedesktop.UDisks.Error.Failed: Error creating mount point: No such file or directory.
    Because of this error, I am unable to mount usb pendrives, access CDs, or access the non-Arch partitions. I'm not sure if this is a KDE error or if it related to Arch as I never encountered this error running KDE 4.6 in Opensuse.
    My daemons running in /etc/rc.conf
    DAEMONS=(syslog-ng dbus networkmanager netfs crond alsa kdm)

    Now, I don't have hal running as a daemon as I have read that it is no longer needed in KDE 4.6. Similarly, I don't have my CD-Rom drive mounted as I read in the udev wiki that Udisks automatically mounts devices and partitions. The wiki also indicates that Udisks is supposed to require little configuration.
    I've searched the forum and Google, and I have not been able to find any information documenting a Dolphin and UDisks mounting error in KDE 4.6.
    I installed KDE through the # pacman -S kde    command, but is there some other package that I need to install in order to get Udisks working properly?
    Thanks.

    When I enter   $ groups in a terminal I get the following
    sys adm disk lp wheel games video audio optical storage power users
    So I'm definitely part of the storage group.
    I think I found a solution. I created a /data mountpoint in fstab and a /data folder in my root directory. Now, I'm able to mount and access the contents of the /home partition from Opensuse. The reason I wanted to do this was to access music and photos and transfer them onto my Arch /home partition.
    I uncommented the cdrom, dvd, and fd0 devices in fstab and I created /media/cd, /media/dvd, and /media/fl. After inputting a # mount -a, my CDROM drive reads properly as does my USB.
    So once again, thank, you for pointing me in the right direction.
    One final thought. I was under the impression from reading the UDisks information that it automatically detected and mounted other partitions and devices without them being explicitly mounted in fstab. Was the assumption wrong? In other words, for UDisks and Dolphin to work together properly in KDE 4.6, do all of the devices that appear have to first be mounted in fstab?

  • [Solved] KDE 4.5.1 constant disk i/o from /jbd2/sda4-8

    I recently switched from Gnome to KDE 4.5, and have noticed one small problem, that this machine never had with Gnome.   I put conky on it (and have a disk io graph on my config) and last night I noticed that /dev/sda was being accessed every couple of seconds.   Using iotop I can see that very 2-3 seconds I get disk i/o access from a process called /jbd2/sda4-8.   I have read up on this, and it's got something to do with ext4 journaling.   I took a look at my fstab and noticed that two partitions on /dev/sda did not have the noatime flag, but adding that didn't correct this problem.   Some people say this can be caused by the HAL daemon, but in the Arch guide for KDE it says that HAL is necessary for KDE to automount drives.   One person suggested I try the command hal-disable-polling --device /sda, but when I tried that it just returns a message saying that /sda isn't removable media, and thus, polling wasn't running on it to begin with.   
    The only other option I've seen would be to just remove HAL from the daemons entry in rc.conf, but then what would I do about KDE not showing the drives in Dolphin?
    Looking over system logs revealed no errors either.   I'm just at a loss to see how to stop this.

    ah ha!  I'm an idiot.   I didn't understand how conky could be the culprit, considering I never saw this activity in Gnome.   But just for the sake of troubleshooting, I tried iotop while conky was killed, and the problem was gone.   
    Then it hit me.    To set up conky with KDE, and make transparency work, you have to use feh to take a snapshot of the desktop background.   Conky was set to 2 second updates, so therefore feh was refreshing as well!   
    I'm just glad I know exactly what the issue was.    This teaches me to double check the simple things first, before thinking of way more complicated things.    Thanks guys.   Marking this as solved.

  • [Solved] KDE 4.4 Knetworkmanager, has anyone got this to work yet?

    Been trying to get knetworkmanager working on KDE 4.4 and haven't got it to work yet.  Well initially it did work.  Here's the steps I did.
    1) Had network running '/etc/rc.d/network start
    2) Installed 'kdeplasma-applets-networkmanagement'
    3) Commented out interfaces in '/etc/rc.conf' and defined dhcp:
    eth1="dhcp"
    INTERFACES=(!eth0 !eth1 !wlan0)
    4) Set hostname in '/etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf':
    [main]
    plugins = keyfile
    [keyfile]
    hostname = pavilion
    5) Added 'networkmanager' to daemon array in '/etc/rc.conf'
    DAEMONS=(syslog-ng crond alsa hal kdm dnsmasq networkmanager cups netfs)
    6) Added 'network' group to user:
    gpasswd -a gen2ly network
    7) Stopped network '/etc/rc.d/network stop'
    8) Brought down interfaces 'ifconfig eth0 down && ifconfig eth1 down && ifconfig wlan0 down'
    9) Started networkmanager
    /etc/rc.d/networkmanager start
    10) Started networkmanager applet (seems to me it was already started but I guess not??)
    11) Got connected to network.
    After reboot however, the networkmanager applet is telling me 'Unmanaged' when I rollover it, and when I click it it says 'Network Management disabled'.  I've tried a couple things (like un-commenting the network devices on the interfaces line and restarting) to no effect.  Doesn't seem I'm able to get it up again.  Anyone else had luck with this?  Did I miss something?

    Ah, anti-destin that is exactly what was needed to be done.  ... Thank you!  Threw be off a bit, it did .
    Off-topic somewhere here now, Ok, a good deal off-topic.. looking at the wiki page for configuring I think the wiki under section, 'Disable interfaces' is erroneous.  Does NetworkManager really parse rc.conf?  I can't think of any reason it would need to.  I'm thinking that NetworkManager would naturally scan and then do dhcp on wired, followed by wireless.  And for those that do a static ip, they can configure the applet.  To test, I put this in my rc.conf:
    #eth0="dhcp"
    #eth1="dhcp"
    #wlan0="dhcp"
    INTERFACES=(!eth0 !eth1 !wlan0)
    And it worked fine.  I'm thinking I could erase them and not have a problem.

    Few days before I brought one iphone 5 by second party and this phone make a unlock but it sometime have a cellular network most of time say no service can u solve this problem please and I put serial number it say this phone is replace can u help me for original serial number....

    If Apple's service database says that your iPhone was replaced, then Apple will no longer provide any service for that phone.
    First, get a new SIM from your cell carrier and see if that corrects the problem. If it does not, try the usual steps for addressing software problems: restart, reset, restore.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you try restoring from a backup and that doesn't fix the problem, try restoring to factory settings and, if the problem goes away, then sync back your apps and content. You'll lose the app data and settings, but if the problem is due to a corrupt cache or settings file, restoring to factory settings should cure it.
    If none of that helps, your device may have developed a hardware fault. Again, Apple will provide no service for it, so you will need to pay some independent repair shop to fix your iPhone.
    Regards.

  • [SOLVED] KDE 4.8 crash!

    Hi!
    Yesterday, I updated my system, and installed the KDE 4.8.
    Today, when I started my computer, the KDE was with a grey wallpaper and big red squares, showing that the widgets was crashed too.
    I couldn't take screenshots, but I took some photos to show you. When I had the KDE 4.7, everything worked perfectly.
    How can I fix it? Should I downgrade to KDE 4.7? How to do it?

  • [SOLVED] KDE Start New Session doesn't work from lock screen

    On my laptop, if I lock the KDE 4 session and then click Switch Users > Start New Session, I get a login screen and can log in as a different user. All good.
    If I do the same thing on my desktop, it doesn't work. When I click Switch Users > Start New Session, it doesn't start a new session or switch VTs. Instead, I just get reprompted for the existing user's password.
    Both machines are running fully updated Arch. Anyone know how I can troubleshoot this? The only difference I can think of between the laptop and desktop is that the desktop has nomodeset specified as a kernel boot parameter. (It won't boot without it.) Could this be interfering with automatic VT switching? Manual VT switching (e.g. Ctrl+Alt+F1) works fine.

  • [solved] kde without arts - problem with aplay/knotify

    Hi,
    I finally got convinced to switch of arts for kde. Amarok runs much better now but I face a problem with knotify/aplay.
    With arts not active knotify won't play sounds anymore. knotify is the program responsible for kde's bells and whistles, like playing a sound when you open or close a window etc.
    knotify specifies an option for an external player, which I think is the thing to use in case you don't use arts.
    I configured that option to use aplay, the sound replay program provided by alsa. However, that has problems. Many kde sounds come with 8khz sample frequency. If I play one of these sounds with aplay their playback frequency is much to low and the sound is heavily distorted. It seems the downmixing does not work.
    If I use aplay -Ddmix or -Dduplex I get following error:
    Playing raw data 'KDE_Beep.ogg' : Unsigned 8 bit, Rate 8000 Hz, Mono
    aplay: set_params:857: Sample format non available
    I think that may have something to do with my .asoundrc or maybe there is another program to use for sound playback I don't know about. Also, I could be that knotify IS supposed to play the sounds even without arts running and something else is wrong.
    Here is my .asoundrc, any advice is welcome:
    # Set default sound card
    # Useful so that all settings can be changed to a different card here.
    pcm.snd_card {
    type hw
    card 0
    # Allow mixing of multiple output streams to this device
    pcm.dmix {
    type dmix
    ipc_key 1024
    slave.pcm "snd_card"
    slave {
    # This stuff provides some fixes for latency issues.
    # buffer_size should be set for your audio chipset.
    period_time 0

    0 0
    1 1
    # Allow reading from the default device.
    # Also known as record or capture.

    # This is what we want as our default device
    # a fully duplex (read/write) audio device.
    pcm.duplex {
    type asym
    playback.pcm "dmix"
    capture.pcm "dsnoop"
    # CONVERSION PLUG #
    # Setting the default pcm device allows the conversion
    # rate to be selected on the fly.
    # duplex mode allows any alsa enabled app to read/write
    # to the dmix plug (Fixes a problem with wine).
    pcm.!default {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "duplex"
    # Apparently this is wrong (breaks mplayer for me opening the device)
    #ctl.!default {
    # type plug
    # slave.pcm "snd_card"
    # AOSS #
    # OSS dsp0 device
    pcm.dsp0 {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "duplex"
    # OSS control for dsp0 (needed?...this might not be useful)
    ctl.dsp0 {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "snd_card"
    # OSS control for dsp0 (default old OSS is mixer0)
    ctl.mixer0 {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "snd_card"
    Cheers,
    Dominik

    Ok, I came to a solution.
    My .asoundrc was ok. It was aplay that I wasn't aware of it couldn't handle .ogg files, it tried to play it anyway and that's why I got garbled sound output *headdesk*
    I installed alsaplayer, after running it once I edited .alsaplayer/config to use the "text" user interface by default. Setting alsaplayer as external player for knotify seems to work.
    However, knotify won't let me play sounds in quick succession, so I lose a knotify sound every now and then.

  • [SOLVED] KDE 4.3 upgrade. Kde-meta-kdeplasma-addons conflict

    Hello. Today i decided to upgrade my kde 4.2.4 to 4.3. After i execute:

    Warning: provider package was selected (kde-meta-kdeplasma-addons provides kdeplasma-addons)
    I don't want to install any kde-meta package. But this is no problem. I can delete them after.
    Problem is that:

  • [SOLVED] KDE Is not loading

    HI, i'm been an archlinux user for a while, never have great issues, but now i reinstalled arch in a formated disk and started all over. The thing is that I installed kde basis (following the wiki), but neither kdm via inittab, or kdm via daemon works! it just load the tt1 console and do nothing. No erors, or something. The only difference with previous installation is that the first time i installed kde-meta package, and have no issues

  • Count at bin level and quant level?

    what is the difference between cycle count at bin level and quant level?
    Thx

    If you use cycle counting inventory at quant level, the system does not set the inventory block for the entire storage bin. It sets the block instead for the quant to be inventoried.
    You count only the selected materials, not all materials in the storage bin. If you manage storage bins with mixed storage, these storage bins are accessible for stock movements with other quants.
    There can be open transfer orders for all materials that were not flagged for cycle counting in the inventory document. You can also create transfer orders for these materials during the inventory.
    The system saves the inventory data at quant level.
    In a stock movement, if you move a quant from one storage bin to another, the system deletes the quant in the source storage bin and creates a new quant in the destination storage bin.
    Because the system stores the inventory data for the cycle counting inventory at quant level in the quant data, any inventory data that you previously entered is lost in this type of stock transfer.

  • [SOLVED] How to start JACK with KDE 4? (and which JACK should I use?)

    Hi again
    I'm using KDE 4, and I've just installed JACK again, and since I can't find any decent documentation on this, I'm having a bit of a problem.
    Currently I have jack from [extra] installed, rather than jack2. When I try starting jack as the ArchWiki suggests, i.e. by typing "jackd -d alsa", I get the following error:
    $ jackd -d alsa
    jackd 0.120.1

    cannot load driver module alsa
    I've also tried jack2 from [community], and after starting it with "jack_control start", I get this...
    $ jack_control start
    --- start
    DBus exception: org.jackaudio.Error.Generic: Failed to start server
    So how do I start it? I'm guessing jack doesn't want to start because some other KDE application grabbed alsa before jackd (but I've been wrong before), and I don't have the slightest idea what jack2 is about with that "generic" error. If anyone would help me shed some light on this, I'd appreciate it a lot.
    Thanks in advance!

    @schivmeister thanks that one worked
    Yes, it was knotify4. So now this part works. I've switched to jack2 and it works flawlessly when starting it with jackd
    So this part is solved... now, would you be so kind (if you know) as to point me to some tutorials or howtos (or proper documentation, cos I can't find much of that either) on how to connect various ALSA channels with JACK?
    Basically, I want to route my PCM channel and the Mic channel into Capture 1 (or one to Capture 1 and other to Capture 2), since my Intel HDA audio card doesn't have the "Mix" or "What-U-Hear" or whatever as an available capture source. Any leads on that? (or do I have to open another thread for it?)

    My ArchLinux is updated today and is thus on kernel 3.6.6, My wife's ArchLinux, which is still on kernel 3.5.5, has no problems automounting, so it must be due to a recent change, but which?
    When I insert e.g. a USB stick, I get the 'Available Devices' popup, but when I select 'Open with File Manager' I get the following message at the bottom of the popup: 'Could not mount the following device:  xxxxx' followed by 'An unspecified error has occurred.: Not Authorized'
    I'm still on sysvinit but would like to switch to systemd, because I have the haunch that switching to systemd would cure the problem. So far my attempts to switch to systemd has failed (see my woes in this thread https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 6#p1193076
    I have tried to install 'udiskie' but that did not help.
    I could give many more details but which? I'll supply any information required as we go.
    Any help and/or pointer will be much appreciated.

    I have (of course) but I find myself in a circular situation apparently. 'logind' is a systemd thing and as you can see from the above thread I'm trying to switch to systemd but am having problems. So until that issue is solved I could use other suggestions...

  • [SOLVED] - KDE and go-openoffice - semi success

    I installed go-openoffice from the normal repos, typed in OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=kde4 soffice and lo and behold openoffice dialogues are now KDE - hurray!!!
    Checked the wiki which says to put the above line in /etc/profile.d/openoffice.sh - so I did as I was told (and created /etc/profile.d/openoffice.sh in the process) but when I start writer I still get the old gtk dialogues.
    The second approach says it should be put into /usr/bin/soffice but that has ended in total disaster for me in that the cpu went into overdrive and stopped accepting anything I was able to throw at it.
    Has anybody managed to automate this process so that kde integration works even when it is not started from the command line?

    Okay, time for some piccies:
    With KDE enforced:
    With openoffice dialogue:
    Without openoffice dialogue:
    EDIT:
    Solved. I knew it was me being plain thick, so a night's sleep or two sorted it. Instead of following the wiki I edited the menu entries for OpenOffice and placed OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=kde4 in front of the actual command - bingo. Okay, it is not global, but enough for me.
    Will adjust the wiki accordingly.

  • [solved] Issue with conky and Kde 4

    I have a small issue with conky and KDE 4.2. I start conky with a script which I stored under ~/.kde/Autostart. The script is simple and looks like this..
    conky -c ~/.conkyrc_kde4
    This works fine. But when I restart the first KDE and check with ps, I have 2 instances of conky running. The instances keep on growing with the number of restarts.
    I think kde tries to restart all the apps which were running when the session was terminated. Is there a way to change this behavior in general or all the programs or for only a specific program like conky ?

    I did
    Systemsettings > Advanced > Session Manager > Start with an empty session
    and put everything you want in Autostart
