Serghei, I think I found a cmake error in knetworkmanager: -- checking for 'Qt' CMake Error at cmake/modules/FindQt.cmake:91 (check_cxx_source_compiles): Unknown CMake command "check_cxx_source_compiles". Call Stack (most recent call first): ConfigureChecks.cmake:43 (find_package) CMakeLists.txt:49 (include) -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! Aborting... -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Latest Build - no kcontrol -> panels, kicker icons for home, etc. gone?
by David C. Rankin 05 Mar '11

05 Mar '11

Guys, I just finished a rebuild of everything this morning and the kcontrol settings for desktop -> 'panel' are gone and my kicker icon for home and others are gone. x86_64 icons are there, but i686 is messed up. The versions I have are: trinity-app-amarok 1223570-1 trinity-app-gtk-qt-engine 1222892-1.0 trinity-app-style-qtcurve 1182805-1 trinity-arts 1222998-1 trinity-kdebase 1223270-1 trinity-kdegraphics 1223711-1 trinity-kdelibs 1222999-1 trinity-kdevelop 1222477-1 trinity-kdewebdev 1222551-1 trinity-pyqt3 3.18.1-9 trinity-qt3 3.3.8-20 trinity-tqtinterface 1222551-1 Has anybody else see this behavior? I'll try deleting all sources and try another rebuild. If you know anything else about this behavior, please let me know. On x86_64 kruler causes a desktop crash on orientation switch. (still looking at this one, but 'west' seems to be the one that does it) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

A discussion started on another thread on whether to keep the name Trinity Desktop Environment or to rename to KDE Classic.

Re: [trinity-devel] Bugs, bugs, bugs

I have experience with c++ and qt3, but creating patches and sending them by mail is a pain in the ass. I would sugest gitorious, wich have "merge requests", if you dont wanna give commit permisions to all the people who could help.

kicker.kcrash - from box with missing icons and desktop -> panel kcontrol problem
by David C. Rankin 04 Mar '11

04 Mar '11

Guys, This issue with missing icons and no desktop -> panel kcontol settings seems to be limited to one box. I have taken the same packages and installed them on another box and i686 looks fine. But, "what is messed up on this box?" I have tried the old tricks. - kbuildsycoca --noincremental - creating new user and logging in as him (no luck) - I have downgraded and tested -> same issue I did manager to get a kicker.kcrash trying to add an app to kicker that might help and I have it attached. Let me know what you think. P.S. - I would have just attached this in a reply, but my first thread hasn't come through the mailing list yet. Strange - that was over and hour and twenty minutes ago? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Update - building on Arch with Qt4 present - works fine!
by David C. Rankin 04 Mar '11

04 Mar '11

Guys, Just a note. After going through nightmares early on with kdelibs and kdebase pulling in Qt4 files, I have gotten trinity to build fine with Qt4 installed on arch. I'm not sure what has changed. Whether there were updates to cmake files that helped or whether it was not having kde4 installed that makes the difference. However, with Qt4 installed, I can now build trinity without conflicts. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

There is life out of Kubuntu
by Albert Vaca 04 Mar '11

04 Mar '11

In Konqueror, if you type the url "about:konqueror", you get a menu with "Home folder", "Storage media"... and "About Kubuntu". Since we have packages for several distros, this should be removed from Trinity sources Albert Vaca
