Why kdebase and kdelibs take so much space?

tardo · 2007-10-12 20:41:17

oops sorry, libs/pimlibs/base are built with !strip, for full debugging effect.

will you leave it like that or will you change it?

tardo · 2007-10-12 21:03:54

it stays like that.

somairotevoli · 2007-10-13 00:22:32

Thanks for all your hardwork. Just installed. Got dbus error after login, but still kde loads. It's seems even slower than the previous betas, but I am enjoying seeing the progress. Is the kicker supposed to be empty besides the clock?

tardo · 2007-10-13 01:42:07

yes, kicker will completely be replaced. if you're looking for a temporary menu install kickoff (search for it).

somairotevoli · 2007-10-13 02:47:09

Thanks....but I already uninstalled, it was too slow for even testing reasons and still a lot of frequent crashings, but none-the-less much progress over previous beta.

Thanks again for building these pkgs and allowing us to have a peak.

Hmm... the previous version worked quite well for me. This one, however, does not properly display window borders, window contents, menus, or kicker. - Nothing but a few dark shadows on white background is displayed. Maybe I am missing something?

Yes, kwin is automatically trying to use composite, which doesn't work well with your card. Best bet is to disable it. You'll have to edit your /home/user/.kde/share/config/kwinrc file for that. Here's mine:

Adding the compositing section may be enough.

Thanks, tardo, that worked!

Yes,

[Compositing]
Enabled=false

is indeed enough. Your settings are nice, though.

installed kde4 using virtualbox , but try to login but a got a message:

error - could not start dbus

but:

/etc/rc.d/dbus start
/etc/rc.d/hal start

ideas ???

tardo · 2007-10-17 01:02:59

how are you starting kde?

tardo · 2007-10-17 01:50:56

bump for x64 versions.

tanis · 2007-10-17 03:35:09

kdegraphics4-3.94.0-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz is broken. Both size and MD5 are wrong.

*startkde
*/opt/kde4/bin/kdm
*startx

always the same error, after login with user/pass got a blank message: could not start dbus, check your installation. and then start the splashscreen of kde4.

tardo · 2007-10-17 04:09:14

@tanis: fixed

@Cipher: you should only need startkde. if you want to use startx, add 'startkde' to ~/.xinit and comment everything else, then run startx.

tanis · 2007-10-17 04:43:50

Cipher: add this to your .bashrc file:
export PATH=/opt/kde4/bin:/opt/qt4/bin:$PATH

tardo: thanks

But still... I am disappointed. I wouldn't call it "beta". More like "developer preview"

why the kdebase4-3.94.0-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz is so big?
The kdebase-3.94.0.tar.bz2 is only 59,186 KB.

buddabrod · 2007-10-18 12:34:14

Scroll up and learn reading.

yuanjiayj · 2007-10-20 06:51:11

now when I start kde3, plasma auto start everytime too.
and konqueror's error is "Error loading 'kio_http'."

pedepy · 2007-10-20 21:22:17

is the version on the repo beta 3 and is it any better ?

id really like to give it a shot but I dont wanna mess everything up .. i actually recently had problems and had to reinstall everything from scratch twice; .......... i dont wanna do that again. however if I can put my machine to the test, id be happy to submit bug reports to the kde4 developers - granted that when Im done, i can just pacman -U and go back to normal. Is this possible ?

Noneus · 2007-10-20 22:28:52

Yes it is beta3. You can do

pacman -S kde4

This installs the kde4 group. This will install everything necessary.

To remove it you can remove the group.

pacman -Rc kde4

The no longer needed dependencies can be removed with a script I made: http://noneus.de/downloads/arch-scripts … orphans.sh
