No plasmoid borders
by Florian Sievert 08 Jan '16

08 Jan '16

Hi guys, I just noticed that when hovering a plasmoid on the desktop, it does not show the border that was appearing in previous version, containing buttons for resize, settings, rotation. This systems to be unavailable since the update onto KF 5.18 or Plasma 5.5.1. In noticed that moving arround the plasmoid when just clicking on the border and dragging it arround seems to be working fine. But at least no option for rotation anymore. I tried to google for modification that had been made to KF removing these borders, but couldn't find anything. Can anyone confirm that this is an wanted change or can confirm that the border does not appear on his system as well when plasmoids are unlocked? Best regards, Florian

KDE on fully updated rawhide not working
by George R Goffe 08 Jan '16

08 Jan '16

Hi, I have installed a rawhide version of Fedora and installed most (99%) of the content of the "groups" and all updates. I put "startkde" in my .xinitrc file but KDE fails to initialize. Something is broken but I don't know where. I'd like to make a bug report for this on bugzilla.redhat.com but I'd like to give them as much info ahead of time. Can someone(s) let me know what info the KDE folks might want to see please? Regards, George...

konsole hangs when started from desktop background menu
by Roderick Johnstone 07 Jan '16

07 Jan '16

Hi I need some help to sort this issue please. Since the last update to plasma on Fedora 22, when I try to start konsole by right clicking on the desktop background and selecting 'konsole' it opens a konsole window but that window contains only a screenshot of what was under the window when it was created! (The bar at the top of the window says Konsole and the konsole icon is in the top left corner of the bar). If I start konsole from the kickoff menu or from my panel launcher button konsole opens normally and after that subsequent launches from the desktop right-click menu work, but my first stuck konsole is still stuck with the screenshot. Any ideas how to diagnose this? Thanks Roderick Johnstone

KDE 5.5.2 - thanks!
by Reindl Harald 07 Jan '16

07 Jan '16

Rex - thanks for the early KDE 5.5.2 in "kde-testing"! slowly but with progress my desktop feels similar to pre-F22, whenever KDE6 is planned - please - for the sake of humanity delay it for Fedora until around 5.6.5 is available and your users will be grateful

Occasional Plasma restarts
by Dave Ulrick 05 Jan '16

05 Jan '16

Hi, I'm running KDE Plasma 5.17.0 with F22. I use the open source 'radeon' video driver. I have compositing disabled and I use a solid color as my desktop background. After some fiddling I've gotten it to where it's 99% usable, but every once in a while Plasma crashes. I've not noticed anything in particular that I might have done to trigger the crash. So far it's always restarted itself automatically, but it's slightly annoying to have to pause what I'm working on while I wait for Plasma to come back. ~/.xsession-errors doesn't have any obvious clues (the lack of timestamps doesn't help) and I don't know of anywhere else to look. I have KDE5 set up with 2 activities. The first activity has 9 virtual desktops. I often switch between virtual desktops, usually successfully, but every once in a while Plasma will crash while I'm switching desktops. I also see crashes that don't involve switching desktops, such as after changing something in System Settings. Do you have any suggestions of what I might do to troubleshoot and/or solve these crashes? Might I see improved stability if I upgraded to F23 or am I better off sticking with F22? Thanks, Dave -- Dave Ulrick Email: d-ulrick(a)comcast.net

konsole and clipboard in fc22
by John Pilkington 05 Jan '16

05 Jan '16

If I scroll to the top of a konsole tab the top clipboard item is often inserted at its foot. Doing it repeatedly gives concatenation. I hadn't seen this before yesterday's Fedora 22 update. I've also had old command lines unexpectedly appearing when scrolling in logging output. I'm not sure if this is related to the recent f23 klipper *argh* thread. I'm using the legacy nvidia 304 rpmfusion driver. ... just another observation. John P

digikam5 copr, review status
by Rex Dieter 05 Jan '16

05 Jan '16

FYI, I've made a digikam-5.x copr, https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/rdieter/digikam/ for testing/feedback, and to help with dependency reviews tracked via bug, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=digikam-5.0 The current optimistic plan is to remove support for kde4-based kipi-plugins from f24 (since they currently do not easily install in parallel with digikam5's kf5-based versions). kde4-based applications that currently use libkipi, but not yet ported to kf5 include: kphotoalbum ksnapshot The latter (ksnapshot) is deprecated by kde.org upstream in favor of spectacle (not packaged and reviewed yet, as far as I'm aware). -- Rex
