2019-10-27 Thread Brendon Higgins
Hi, I've encountered similar behaviour: black/residual/flickering windows making the desktop unusable after login. I also noticed some minor (white) flickering in SDDM prior to login, although it was still quite usable at that point. I'm running a mixed testing/unstable system, and am also usin

Does switching to the VT console (e.g. ctrl+alt+f1) and back again (ctrl+alt +f7) unfreeze things? If so, this might be the same bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1399396 I'm experiencing this on two different machines, one using the radeon driver and another using the nouveau driv

For the benefit of those, like me, who encounter this problem with a recent install, note that the solution has changed since the transition in Testing to KDE Frameworks 5: don't install baloo4, it won't work with current dolphin. Instead, install baloo-kf5. Maintainers, please consider making

This doesn't seem to be fixed. I now have three separate machines, all tracking testing with a sprinkle of unstable packages (which includes those for kwin and kde-window-manager), none of which run kwin_x11 at login. They do all have the correct x-window-manager alternative set, and I can manua

Bug#743297: plasma-widgets-addons: fuzzy clock should say 'X til T' instead of 'X to T'

2014-04-29 Thread Brendon Higgins
This suggestion seems to be very subjective and/or region specific. E.g. I've personally only ever heard it as "X to Y", and never "X til Y". If it were "til" I would be at least as justified in filing a similar bug to change it to "to" - if not more justified, as I suspect "to" is actually more

as getting cleared, so I'm pretty sure this is the reason. I'm not sure how you would go about solving this issue. Perhaps block KDE 3 cleaner from running while KDE 4 kdeinit is active, or maybe just use a different cache location. Thought you should know. Peace, Brendon Brendon Hi

Hi, I'd like to ask (nicely, of course) that the maintainers of KDE 4.1 in experimental apply the patch to fix a versioning issue in the http cache cleaner. It affects KDE since at least 4.1.2, and somehow missed out on being fixed in 4.1.3. The upstream bug report is here: https://bugs.kde.or
