by Jochen Vortkamp 25 May '09

25 May '09

Hi. I don't get it to bring my Kubuntu 9.04 with KDE4.5 in the WLAN-Network. In KDE4 it works fine. Under KDE3.5, i tried it wirh the knetworkmanager. When i klick on the connection I add, nothing happen. I doesn't matterwhen i change the authorisation in the router to WEP/WPA or nothing. Sorry for my bad english. Greetz Jochen -- Psssst!

KDE 3 users: what is missing in KDE 4?
by Dotan Cohen 07 May '09

07 May '09

I am filing bugs for features missing from KDE 4 that were present in KDE 3. Please send to me the features that are missing for _you_ so that we can get them in future versions of KDE 4. Thanks! You can contact me off-list if you prefer. -- Dotan Cohen http://what-is-what.com http://gibberish.co.il

how to tell KDE3.5 where to search for executeables
by Stefan Endrullis 30 Apr '09

30 Apr '09

Hello list, the executables of KDE3.5 are now located in /opt/kde3/bin, but my KDE3 installation doesn't seam to know that. My present solution for the console was to set the PATH in my .zshrc and it worked fine until yesterday. Yesterday I tried to print a pdf via Kpdf but I got the error that cupsdoprint could not be found since it's located in /opt/kde3/bin. What can I do? How can I set the PATH variable such that KDE3 also knows it? PS: I have already thrown the PATH assignment into /etc/environment but that didn't help, too. Regards, Stefan

looking for the list archive
by Gerhard Zintel 30 Apr '09

30 Apr '09

Hi List, I was so glad to find out the possibility to install KDE 3.5.10 in Jaunty. Thanks very much too all of you who have contributed! The installation went more or less smooth but now I'd like to ask a few questions or discuss certain matters according a few remaining quirks. That's why I first tried to find a mailing list archive of this list to look what is already discussed but --- no success here. I prefere to first read the archive not to spam the list with well discussed subjects. Can anyone point me into the right direction please? Thanks a lot Gerhard

k3b with extra codecs
by Bastian Salmela 27 Apr '09

27 Apr '09

hi, i'm having some problems with k3b-kde. originally it didn't even start because libdvdread3 package turned out to be just empty virtual one. i found working version from older ubuntu, and got the program to start and burn things. but today, I needed to make audio-cd out of mp3s, and k3b spat out an error. what I understood is, I need the libk3b3-extracodecs-kde3 package. this is in repositories, but it can't be installed because it requires libavcodec51, and on Jaunty there is only libavcodec52. so, how to fix this, has anyone got it to work? thanks. .b

Re: [kubuntu-kde3.5-announce] Jaunty Jackalope 9.04 with KDE3.5 FINAL now available for download!
by Michael Hirsch 27 Apr '09

27 Apr '09

Thanks, Tim. That's great news. What is the proper procedure for upgrading? I currently have several Intrepid systems with KDE 3.5. When I tested the water with an upgrade to Jaunty it looked like most of kde3 was getting removed. So I canceled the upgrade. What is the expected upgrade path? Do I run the upgrade, then reinstall your debs? Can someone on this list report on their upgrade experience? I'm looking forward to doing it just as soon as I know how.

fresh install
by Robert Raiman 25 Apr '09

25 Apr '09

I did a clean install of Kubuntu 9.04. I then did a: apt-get update apt-get kubuntu-desktop-kde3 Couldn't find the package. Do I need a special repository added to /etc/apt/sources.list? -- The Ideal Situation Is To Have Massive Computing Power Right At Home.

Kubuntu/Kde3/Jaunty - Final Release?
by Charlie Pearce 24 Apr '09

24 Apr '09

Hi all, Just a quick question, I'm planning to install the Kde3 Remix of Jaunty for myself as well as a friend (which is why I'm asking so that I can give them an estimate, I'm happy to just wait myself!)- as such I was wondering if there is an ETA on the final release of this? Or will we be able to upgrade from the release candidate using apt? Thanks in advance, cjp

Getting ready for Jaunty
by Michael Hirsch 09 Apr '09

09 Apr '09

Tim, Jaunty comes out in about 2 weeks now, and I'm not sure what the process is going to be for us 3.5 users. What is involved for us in the upgrade. I don't currently have KDE4 installed. When I upgrade will it get installed or does it stay away. Do I have to edit my sources.list file, or does it automatically get pointed to the 3.5 jaunty repo? Can you tell us what to expect? Thanks, Michael

kopete can't talk to my kwallet
by Michael Hirsch 08 Apr '09

08 Apr '09

I've got another question. Again, my home system works well and my laptop has trouble. Both run kde 3.5 on Ubuntu. The desktop is 64 bit and the laptop 32 bit. When kopete starts on my laptop is can't connect to kwallet. It prompts for passwords, then says that it can't save them securely. This happens every time I log in. On my desktop, kopete connects to kwallet fine. I get prompted once for the kwallet password, and never again. I don't even know where to start looking for the problem. Michael
