Konqueror/Gwenview weirdness
by Leslie Turriff 10 Mar '13

10 Mar '13

I browse to a website that contains GIF images. When I click on any of these images I get this error message: There was an error loading the module Gwenview Image Viewer. The diagnostics is: Library files for "libgvimagepart.la" not found in paths. I click OK and the image is displayed. I checked the Konqueror file association settings for GIF and found KView Gwenview Gwenview V4 GIMP Kolourpaint Wine Internet Explorer Pinta This looks like KView should be being used not Gwenview; but I removed Gwenview V4 just in case it was causing some conflict. But I got the same result. I also tried upgrading to the most recent available Konqueror and Gwenview components from the repository, but again got the same result. Any suggestions? Leslie

Difficult upgrade
by John A. Sullivan III 10 Mar '13

10 Mar '13

Hello, all. I wish I had more specific data to report but I've just had a very problematic upgrade on Debian Squeeze although it also has a number of packages installed from Wheezy. I'm not even sure which Trinity I was running beforehand - 12 or 13. I do know that, after the upgrade, I could not boot into a GUI - automatically or manually. For some reason, important packages were missing, viz., kdm-trinity, ksmserver-trinity, network-manager-kde-trinity, and a pile of their dependencies. The base Trinity packages were installed. Very strange but very painful. Again, I wish I had more specific details to report. Sorry - John

I've not been following the list closely for some time because of other responsibilities but the above caught my eye especially as I continually see references to TQT when working in KDevelop on Trinity. Is TQT a fork of Qt3 as Trinity is a fork of KDE3? If so, is there a licensing issue for Windows TQT applications? Thanks - John

Poor Qt4 performance on Linux
by Alexandre Couture 09 Mar '13

09 Mar '13

Hi everyone! This week I've been playing with DraftSight both on Linux and on Windows. DraftSight is a Qt4 CAD drawing program that is very similar to AutoCad and it is available for free both for Windows and for Linux. I used DraftSight for many months on Linux on my Core 2 Duo with 2gb of RAM computer and it is sluggish. Each time that I select a part of the drawing to modify an attribute there is a 5-10 second delay before the program unfreeze. On my Windows-only laptop that I use mainly for running industrial automation software, I have installed DraftSight this week. This laptop is an old IBM ThinkPad A31p with a 1.7GHz Pentium 4 cpu and 512mb of RAM. It runs Windows XP. On this laptop, DraftSight runs perfectly well and there is no delay when I click on a part of a drawing, even if it is a much slower computer and the general performance of DraftSight is much better on Windows. Is there a reason why I see such a big difference between this Qt4 program on Linux and on Windows? Does the difference is because of Qt4 or it could be because DraftSight has not been ported as well as it could be? Qt3 has a very high performance and on a slow computer, it is even faster than GTK2. The UI element are drawn faster than almost every other GUI toolkits. Why does QT4 still suffer from these performance issues? Have an happy spring break! -Alexandre

Cannot build search index for khelpcenter-trinity
by Ken Heard 09 Mar '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 When I try to open khelpcenter a terminal emulator the following appears: QSettings: failed to open file '/etc/qt3/qtrc' QSettings: failed to open file '/etc/qt3/qt_plugins_3.3rc' The upshot is that I cannot create an khelpcenter index. Is there a fix?

06 Mar '13

I'm trying to build a tool called glogg, which requires qmake, but I can't figure out which package provides it. I tried YaST, searching in Names, Keywords, Summary, Description, RPM Requires, RPM Provides and File List, and installed qconf and qt3-devel, but so far haven't found it. Help?? Leslie

Preparing updates for 3.5.13
by Slávek Banko 03 Mar '13

03 Mar '13

Hello everyone, Since the last announcement was incorporated a second set of patches for a future release 3.5.13.2. Those who continue to use my PPA probably already have the update installed. I expect that the final version 3.5.13.2 would be in the second half of March. Here is a detailed list of backported patches: http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/Releases_3_5_13_2… I note that there are also available packages for Ubuntu Quantal (12.10) and Debian Wheezy (7.0): https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~slavek-banko/+archive/axis/+packag… https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~slavek-banko/+archive/axis/+packag… Please test it :) Comments and suggestions welcome.
