[kde-unstable] KDE 4.8

Pyruzan · 2011-12-15 22:21:38

There's a bug in dolphin since I upgraded to 4.8 beta 2; it wouldn't scroll out at all while selecting files or folders with keyboard (by the first letter of files/folders' names I mean) and It's annoying

Anyone else experiencing the same problem?

Also I have to refresh by pressing F5 when I change files/folder's names and dolphin doesn't refresh automatically or after pressing alt+. for 3 4 times dolphin crashes, I hope these bugs would be gone by 4.8 final.

It builds smoothly here, testing it right now

I just removed the patch for diginotar certs, updated both versiosn and md5sum and everything works (within a 5minute window )

Can you give instructions and/or PKGBUILD? I want to try it out too!

Sure.

1- Update ABS
2- Copy the PKGBUILD code/folder

 cp /var/abs/extra/qt /path/to/where/you/want/to/build/software -R

3- change some things on the PKGBUILD. Here's the diff

[damnshock@Feanor qt]$ diff PKGBUILD  /var/abs/extra/qt/PKGBUILD 
7,8c7,8
< pkgver=4.8.0
< pkgrel=1
---

<     #    patch -p1 -i "${srcdir}"/blacklist-diginotar-certs.diff
---
>     patch -p1 -i "${srcdir}"/blacklist-diginotar-certs.diff

4- makepkg
5- wait and install!

I've noticed something really strage while using kde 4.8 beta: eclipse keeps crashing randomly and when I try to open a source folder.

This doesn't happen while I'm on fluxbox :S

@Damnshock
you've to disable MALLOCK_CHECK_, try running eclipse (and every java application) in this way: $ MALLOC_CHECK_=0 eclipse

@Pyruzan
I've the same bug in dolphin. I didn't find the upstream bug report yet.

Thanks man, works like a charm! Though HTML5 video/audio tags still doesn't seem to work, even after recompiling Qupzilla against the new qtwebkit. Strange.

kwebkitpart needs to be rebuilt upon qtwebkit 2.2 to enable HTML5 support, do your app use kwebkitpart?

I don't know, is there a way to find out? I tried recompiling kwebkitpart with ABS and then recompiled Qupzilla but it's still the same. Maybe some other part of KDE also needs rebuild?

you have to install some gstreamer packages i think gstreamer0.10-good-plugins was one of them which i recompiled without gconf and jack support...

I don't think it's about codecs, it's the tag itself that is missing. Should I perhaps create a separate thread about this?

I have encountered an interesting bug in yakuake and konsole when doing two consecutive ssh connections:

Apparently konsole and yakuake try to parse the command line and set the title of the window accordingly. I guess they have some special parsing rules for certain binaries. For example with two consecutive ssh commands and certain suffixes that terribly fails.
example:

ssh localhost ssh x y -m

x would normally be another host and y a command but it doesn't even matter. What matters is that yakuake and konsole fail at parsing this after the first ssh connection has been established.

BAM, SEGFAULT!
The offending bit here is the "-m" after the valid command.

Interstingly this only happens for suffixes that are also options for ssh itself. For example, it includes -b, -c, -D, -F etc, when actually this parameters are also sent through ssh and not applied to ssh.

edit: Oh and it doesn't happen when the second ssh command is in quotation marks like this:

ssh localhost "ssh x y -m"

Did someone else notice, that the "treble" and "bass" settings are not correctly set after reboot?
All other sliders in kmix seem to be correct.

Hi all

Using marble, i noticed that in the current kde-unstable version (4.7.90-1), routing does not work anymore here. When I click "get directions", the button goes to busy mode and stays stuck in that position (route is never calculated, whatever service i choose) and marble crashes when i try to quit.

If i downgrade to the package in extra, that works fine again.

Anyone experiencing the same?

Additionnal info :
- system up-to-date with testing & kde-testing
- if i start marble with --debug-info i get the following message repeated when i click on get directions and wait :

Timeout reached while waiting for result. Killing the runner.

After upgrading to Qt 4.8 (or one the a few new packages that were upgraded at the same time) the login fails and falls back to KDM. What could be the reason?

check if kdelibs has been updated too, if not install qtwebkit

the Qt 4.8 upgrade was fine for me, and I have the impression that my desktop, images and effects are smooth (swap virtual desktops, swap activities, minimize windows, etc.. )...

It seems that kdelibs hadn't been synced yet. Thanks.

After upgrading HTML5 audio/video tags works correctly.

Can I know which phonon backend are you using?

Gstreamer when I wrote the post, but tried mplayer now and it seems to work just as good.

Edit: I take that back. I can only get GStreamer to work reliably.

What about phonon-vlc? BTW what phonon backend is now the best?

I did not try that... Well, from what I've read, GStreamer is the 'official', recommended one, but I have always preferred mplayer becouse of it's few dependencies. Other than the dependencies and this html5 thing, I have never noticed any difference between the three.

I don't know which one is the best, anyway I use the vlc backend and html5 works
