So... how do I write a KDE4 widget using python ?
by linux guy
I'd like to make a simple scrolling "banner" widget for my KDE4
desktop.
I've read little blurbs about how KDE4 is now supposed to allow users to
write their own widgets easily using Python. So how do I do it ? Where
do I start ?
I know about python and pyQt. But how does one make it a widget ? Is
there a tutorial somewhere ?
A few more questions...
I'd like my banner to be frameless. Just scrolling text on my desktop.
It shouldn't doc in the taskbar. And I'd like it to handle right click
events.
Is this possible ?
Thanks

Konqueror won't talk to my router
by Anne Wilson
Most odd. Entering the IP for the router's login immediately brings up a
blank page with Done on the status line. I have to wait for it to time out
before I can access it from another box. Any ideas what could cause this?
I honestly don't know whether I have ever done this in konqueror in this
install. Firefox can access the page so it's not a system-wide problem.

The problem solved itself so in my case it isn't to do with the latest kernel.
I followed the steps listed at
http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=206868 even though I didn't
think it was really going to help and initially, it didn't.
But after two reboots, sound decided to work again. It didn't on the first,
worked on the second.
<Shrug> If we had 26 hours in the day, I'd spend some time trying to figure
out exactly what it was that fixed the problem.... :-)

Kontact/Kmail crashes too quietly
by Arthur Pemberton
How can I get Kmail to give me something to report when it crashes?
One second I've moving an email to another folder, the next second the
window has disappeared.
I'd like to file a bug, but I can't reproduce these crashes, and have
nothing to show for them.
Kontact Version 1.2.9
