that's a separate issue with a newest hemidal. is your system up-to-date?
you can upgrade kde or you can browse the forum to make a proper link to hemidal lib file

I try to install kde4 but there a lot of corrupt package.

Here:

Erreur: la validation de la transaction a échoué (paquet corrompu)

Des erreurs se sont produites, aucun paquet n'a été mis à jour.

I only used:

[tardo]
Server = http://mir.inlane.org/tardo/i686

Thanks you.

Edit: Ok, I add Server = http://nagi-fanboi.net/arch/i686 and it was alright.

I try with another user and I am unable to do anything.
kio_http crashs, konqueror is very slow and everything is a mess

I have difficulty to start kde3 application with my other user.
Now I need to do some cleaning

Thanks tardo

tardo, please add something like this to your packages:

#!/bin/sh
pushd /etc/profile.d
chmod -x qt4.sh kde4.sh
chmod +x kde.sh kde.csh kdemod-theme.sh qt.sh
popd
echo "profile changed to KDE3"
echo "restart your session..."

#!/bin/sh
pushd /etc/profile.d
chmod +x qt4.sh kde4.sh
chmod -x kde.sh kde.csh kdemod-theme.sh qt.sh
popd
echo "profile changed to KDE4"
echo "restart your session..."

It will solve some problems like the unwanted start of plasma in the KDE3 session

If you have this problem, use the two scripts above to change between KDE3 and KDE4 and use a dedicated user for KDE4

tardo · 2007-10-28 18:45:05

That's not the way I'd do it, but I'll look into this for the RC1 release.

Here's a post I found on PlanetKDE that might interest some users having this problem:

good, it works. thank you!:D

funkyou · 2007-10-29 16:15:40

Havent tested it so far, but adding the following line to /etc/profile.d/kde4.sh should also work:

export KDEHOME=~/.kde4

Maybe even on the same user together with KDE3...

Shaika-Dzari · 2007-10-31 18:37:05

KDE4 Beta 4 release
==>> http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.0-beta4.php

I hope they work on stability...:lol:

tardo · 2007-10-31 22:32:03

This release was unexpected so I'll try and have it up as soon as possible.

tanis · 2007-11-01 00:38:21

tardo: Thanks for your continuing efforts

Out of curiosity - are you able to use KDE4 for normal work? Or it's more like "let's see how it looks like now"?

tardo · 2007-11-01 01:00:41

Just finished building kdebase. I'm impressed, this is much more usable. Compositing now works (intel i945), the taskbar loads properly, basic plasma applets work without crashing. Oxygen is freakin beautiful (except in firefox... need a fix for that). Kickoff has been merged to base so no need for an external build. Dolphin is so beautifully polished now (can't figure out how to start nepomuk yet though). No more long lag times, applications are launched (almost) instantaneously (core duo, 2gb ram here).
Oh... I'm using this on my regular user now, I'll probably make this my default session. It's just so... pleasing :3

To answer your question: my normal work involves using just firefox and a console. So yes, it's VERY usable. This is a major improvement over the last beta.

somairotevoli · 2007-11-01 20:17:31

Tardo, is there any way you could reshare your PKGBUILDs?

jinn · 2007-11-01 20:23:26

@tardo,

I and I guess some others would love a screenshot

somairotevoli · 2007-11-01 20:56:38

from kde4 live cd page http://home.kde.org/~binner/kde-four-live/

ETA: There is now a debian based Live CD here: http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kde4livecd.html

@somair
These are from the last build. Just run "for i in kde*/PKGBUILD; do sed -i -e 's|3.94|3.95|g' $i; done" after extracting, then makepkg
http://nagi-fanboi.net/arch/kde4pkg.tar.gz

Those Live CDs probably have a more recent snapshot than the beta4 ones. I can't figure out how to get the clock and menu button onto the panel. Also the pager crashes kwin for me.

somairotevoli · 2007-11-02 01:45:02

Thanks!

tardo · 2007-11-02 02:19:35

bump for update. i686 now on servers. x64 coming... soon?

tardo · 2007-11-02 02:47:15

So here are some more things that I noticed:

- Corrupted framebuffer on logout/shutdown/etc (using composite)
- Okular refuses to work for me
- Right-click in dolphin crashes it
- kghostview also crashes on the open-file dialog

Maybe it's because I haven't rebooted in a while... I know okular worked the first time, but I had to recompile it because poppler-qt4 moved to /usr

Anyway, have fun with this. Remember to submit bug reports to the KDE team! If you guys find out cool tricks or nifty hints, post them here. I now use kde4 exclusively.

somairotevoli · 2007-11-02 02:54:45

Just installed from your pkgs. A lot faster this time around, the last beta was unbearably slow for me.

- Right-click in dolphin crashes it
- kghostview also crashes on the open-file dialog

These work fine for me.

ETA: when trying to run amarok2-svn , I get

error while loading shared libraries: libkdeprint.so.5

tardo · 2007-11-02 03:09:48

you just need to rebuild amarok. I tried to to rebuild it earlier, but it seems that they're still using the older API so i get compiler errors i just dont feel like patching.

Also, if there is anything from KDE SVN playground that you guys want built, let me know.

Okey, kde4 seems usable and faster than gnome

But alas since i'm a kde noob some questions remain:

How do i reset settings to default? i just deleted .kde folders and got kmenu and clock to work in kicker...
But the system settings panel seems a bit buggy, is it the only place to change settings for kde?

Can i change wallpaper or kicker settings etcetera?

All in all quite pleasant experience, even compiz works.

tardo · 2007-11-02 20:57:24

Ok guys. The KDE team is holding another krush day, where they'd like to iron out all bugs for the upcoming RC releases. The more people that come, the merrier. kdelibs/kdepimlibs/kdebase doesn't have their symbols stripped so everyone that uses my kde4 packages should come and participate! The krush officially starts at 9am UTC (4am EST), but drop by anytime if you find a bug. Be sure to grab my packages and be ready to rebuild and rebuilt.

channel: #kde4-krush@freenode

How many Mb is KDE4beta?

The download is a little bigger than 400 MB, the installed size about 1 GB.

Oh, by the way: thanks a lot for offering the compiled libs, tardo!

cyprinus · 2007-11-03 00:42:58

Is something wrong with KDE4 BETA 4 on Arch? Pacman still reports 3.94 packages? Any delay?

tardo · 2007-11-03 02:14:38

Try using my mirror, make sure you run pacman -Sy first.

Hint for others: "rm -rf .kde" saves a world of headache. If you have kde3, this isn't a good command obviously.

Arch Linux
