nntp (aka, usenet) client in kde?
by Gene Smith 08 Feb '20

08 Feb '20

I currently use t-bird with an nntp account pointing to gmane to read this list and sereral others. Does kde have an nntp client program of any sort? I don't see it as a possible new account type in kmail. Also, search with kpackagekit yields nothing with "usenet" or "nntp" that is kde specific. -gene

Hi, First, Fedora 15 KDE is again really great! Thanks for this. I've just one - minor - issue. Plasma-desktop raises to 100% cpu usage when I put widgets like CPU monitor, Network monitor or Hardware Temperature monitor on the desktop. Anyone else sees this? Martin Kho

Ed, I think it's a known issue. I have tried the same thing you did. It existed in F14 too. Here is one of the bug reports--->https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=267322. Kyle > F15.

KPackagekit is behaving oddly in system tray
by Kyle 31 May '11

31 May '11

Hello, KPackagekit service is randomly (every 1-3 minutes) popping/querying in/out of my system tray. I set it to check for updates daily. Seems really odd. I am running F15/4.6.3. Ideas? kpackagekit-0.6.3.3-2.fc15.x86_64 Kyle

nouveau problem?
by Ed Greshko 30 May '11

30 May '11

Hi, I've just installed F15 on a system previously running F11. The video card is a nVidia GeForce GT 230 and I was running the nVidia drivers. Now, I'm trying out the nouveau driver. It seems to mostly work. But, there is an issue which may be due to nouveau. When I mouse over an application on the panel a box pops up with the name of the application and for a second a square within the box shows the running window. Also, if I move my mouse to the upper left corner, all desktops should be displayed. However, they are a bunch of grey blobs. Is anyone seeing this? Ed

Disconnecting LAN from systray?
by Ed Greshko 30 May '11

30 May '11

F15. I've the Network Management Icon in the systray. Clicking on it pops up a display showing on the left "Interfaces" and the right "Connections". In the Interfaces is my LAN interface. In the upper right is a small red X. When I mouse over it, it displays "Disconnect". However, clicking on it has no effect. I could not find any buy related to it...but I've been known to be a notoriously bad searcher. :-( Is this a known issue or some thing amiss at my end?

On the kdepim list, a while back, someone wrote a very clear how-to for setting up Google calendar in Kontact, but he uses Ubuntu. The packages he said were needed are libgcal akonadi-kde-resource-googledata The first I have installed, but what is the Fedora equivalent of the second one, please?

activities and icons
by Ed Greshko 27 May '11

27 May '11

I run 6 "Virtual Desktops" and in the "Pager Settings" I have "Different Widgets for each Desktop" checked. Now, I like to create "Link to applications" (a.k.a. icons?) of different sorts on each desktop. As it is, whenever I create a link on a given desktop it appears on all desktops. I have yet to find a way to have a different set of icons on each workspace. I that somehow possible?
