KDE: Devices appearing twice in device notifier

2010-02-16 Thread Adrian von Bidder
Heyho! On my squeeze/sid installation, USB keys recently have started to appear twice in KDE's device notifier widget. I can work normally (I can even mount the device twice, there were no issues with that that I noticed), but it's a bit strange ... There certainly is only one device at the ke

Konqueror and ACLs: difference between SuSE and Debian, between 3.5.x versions?

2006-07-25 Thread Adrian von Bidder
Yodel! [cc:s appreciated] We're facing a problem here with konquerors acl behaviour: changing from SuSE's 3.4.something to Debian backport 3.5.0 or also http://deb.stosberg.net/'s 3.5.3 backports, acl behaviour on file copying has annoyingly changed to also copy the acl. Old (and "correct" -

Yo all! [ please cc: me, thanks a lot ] With version 3.5 (3.5.0bposomething on Debian sarge in my case), konqueror seems to have changed its behaviour regarding file ACLs: when copying a file, konq also copies the ACL to the destination file. Unix shell 'cp', and also older konq versions, di
