OpenSUSE :: Kontact Mail Not Recognising Entries In The Contact File?
Apr 1, 2011
I just started using Kontact and have imported all my contact details from Thunderbird.This worked OK, but I find that when I start a new email and begin to type the recipient's name, the email address is not automatically pulled from the contact list as I would expect.I also noticed that there doesn't appear to be a 'Send Email' option in the Contact screen once an entry has been selected.Kmail seems to be collecting email addresses from any emails I send, and if I start typing one of these, then it does auto-complete
I just reinstalled openSUSE 11.2 for the first time. I took a backup of my /home first of course and then copied over to my new install whatever I wanted, like mails from Kmail and some other stuff. The only thing I'm missing and can't seem to find is my contacts from Kontact? Are they included in any of the other apps? 'cause I can't seem to find anything even related to Contacts in /home/.kde4/share/apps where all the other stuff from Kontacs where.
I have a Palm TX. I used to sync it with kontact through kpilot. Now I have to use jpilot, but I prefer kontact because I have all the rest of information (mail, etc) there.
I've installed Opensuse 11.4 and I would like update kontact 4.6 version. How I can do it? I've added the repository Index of /repositories/KDE:/Unstable:/SC:/kdepim46/KDE_Distro_Factory_openSUSE_11.4 but I can't update.
I have problem with Kontact since KDE 4.3.x (now I'm using 4.4.1). In earlier version (KDE 3) I had summary with calendar, holidays, notes and mail notifications in left column of summary and RSS (Akregator) channels in right column. I can't do the same thing with new Kontact - left column takes all summary window I don't have Akregator plugin in Summary configuration but Akregator is of course installed:
That's my main issue. I cannot add anything in the todo list. I have included a screenshot of the error message. Now just by chance could someone also point me in the direction of how to make it so the calendar will update and sync both ways with google calendar? Follow the link for the screenshot
I'm using openSuSE 11.3 with KDE 4.5 from Distro:/Factory repos, and all seems to be right (some bugs on Digikam and Amarok but they are already reported), but I find that everything is in my language (Spanish) but Kontact family (Kmail, Kadressbook, Akregator,...) that are in American English .I tried to install all KDE's spanish localization from YaST and cleaning ~/.kde4 folder to reset configurations, but it's useless. I don't know if the problem is only mine or just localization in Kontact is not in repos (I noticed that Kontact's version is 4.4.5 because the "newer KDEPIM" is in beta right now).
After updating to kde 4.6, when I try to create a contacts group in kontact, it doesn't suggests anymore the contacts that match the letters already written. So, I have to write the complete name and the complete email address. Apart from the annoyance, it is a source of mistakes...
Microsoft Outlook increments Kontact invites by one hour. It appears that Kontact and Microsoft Outlook process ical.ics invite times differently. According to an inside source at Microsoft, Outlook is looking for a flag in the ical.ics file that indicates if time is being send in daylight saving time (DST), or standard time. If the DST/ST flag is not present, Outlook assumes the time sent is standard time. Outlook also looks at the time zone. If the time zone indicates DST is active, and the time sent is in standard time, Outlook increments the time by one hour. Kontact does not create a DST/ST flag for the ical.ics files it creates. Thus, all invite times I send to my Outlook clients are off by one hour.I don't know the ical.ics standard.
Is Kontact not implementing an ical.ics standard, or is this DST/ST flag just an internal Microsoft standard? IMHO Microsoft's algorithm for determining DST is inefficient, and not logical. The algorithm relies on the receiver knowing the DST rules of the sender. The logical way is to send time as an offset to universal time. The receiver then adjusts time according to the local DST rules, without having to know about sender DST rules.

I developed a java application to organize the articles and notes for what I need for my work reports. The path appear in a jlist component and by clicking on I'd like the file opened. The application works fine in /home side.
In /root side I get this message error:
"GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; the most common cause is a missing or misconfigured D-Bus session bus daemon." I work in KDE (OpenSuse 11.4). Why I need a configuration tipically of GNOME?
I have just recently switched from Gnome to KDE in 11.2 since there was some sort of major KDE update that fixed the issues I had been having with KDE. Ever since, I have not been able to get miro to load. I try to run it and all I get is the bouncing logo, then nothing. When I try to run Miro in terminal, I get this:
solomon@linux-yz7i:~> miro ERROR:dbus.proxies:Introspect error on :1.150:/org/participatoryculture/dtv/OneTime: dbus.etop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote applicge bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connect PyNotify support disabled on your platform.
And it will sit there for eternity or until I close the terminal window. When I run Miro as root, I get this:
linux-yz7i:/home/solomon # miro Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/miro.real", line 48, in <module> upgrade.upgrade() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/miro/plat/upgrade.py", line 77, in upgrade if client.dir_exists("/apps/democracy/player") and not client.dir_exists("/apps/miro"):
glib.GError: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See GConf configuration system for information. (Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.)
I want to edit the Main menu to regroup the applications, and change the paths of some of them.. I have done some yum install and remove, but the entries in the main menu are still present.=
subnet IP netmask MASK { range IP START IP END ; default-lease-time 86400; max-lease-time 172800; }
And now in the /var/lib/dhcpd/dhcpd.lease file, there few entrie for the same IP. Sometime I've ten same entries for the same IP. Can I have only one entrie by IP? Is there any problems in my configuration of my dhcpd.conf file?
i been getting errors when trying to use zypper from the console. This happens in 2 pcs, and errors seem to be the same,One has 11.4 + gnome 2, standar installation (with gnome) from 11.4 DVD. The error i get whenever i run something like zypper install xxxyyy.rpm or zypper update is:
GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; the most common cause is a missing or misconfigured D-Bus session bus daemon. See GConf configuration system for information. (Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session: The connection is closed)
I dont know if its related, but the one with gnome 3 constantly gives me (what i think is) a kernel panic when i shut down the system, it happens fast and the text on the screen is not "linear" but spread all over the screen, so i cant read the whole message, but it does say something about glib and corruption.This is actually the first time(s) ibe seen a kernel panic ever since i used ubuntu.
I am testing LogAnalyzer 3.0, with several Linux servers configured to send their log files to the central server. All Linux servers use syslog as the daemon of choice. While it does appear that LogAnalyzer to be working somewhat, I noticed that a particular log file present on all servers, secure, does not have any entries appearing at the central server. The configuration of the secure file, via the /etc/syslog.conf file, on all servers is shown below:
Code: # The authpriv file has restricted access. authpriv.* /var/log/secure
Do I need to make any additional modifications to the syslog.conf or any other file?
I have some mp3 files that I want to sync with my girlfriend's mp3 player (Sandisk Sansa 4GB) using Rhythmbox, but for some reason no songs come up in Rhythmbox. I then checked the device's filesystem itself. The directory structure is correct, but there are no files in any of the folders. However, Dolphin reports that about 1.6 GB are free, which is about correct based on how much music is actually on the device already. And I've already synced this exact device with Windows Media Player before, and it worked fine. This was a problem both in 8.10 and, now, in 9.10.
On top of that, just now the Sansa disappeared both in Rhythmbox and Dolphin, as if it was unplugged. But it says on the Sansa's screen "Connected" and is apparently charging. I tried unplugging and re-connecting, but Ubuntu still refuses to recognise it.
If I can't get this to work, I'll likely just transfer the songs over the network to my Windows PC and use Windows Media Player, since that seems to work fine.
I have a piece of software that attempts to recognise when a hotkey has been pressed in order to activate functions, this program is designed for use on Windows systems so I am currently running it through the tool called 'Wine.'
When I am in the program it detects the key I wish to assign, it then allows me to save the settings which remain present once the program has been relaunched. However, both with and without the given program in focus it does not detect the given keystrokes.
I have attempted to make Wine use dinput.dll in native Windows form, rather the my system default however this did not resolve the issue. Even though it did make the program save my keystroke in a Windows format.
I'm trying to use my Buffalo Link station nas as a printer server. However every time I try sending a job to the printer remotely, I get an error in the samba logs. It says "lpr: unknown printer"
I was wondering how do I install the drivers for my HP? I tried copying the original printcap db from the original firmware but it doesn't work still. I restarted. The lpd error logs were empty. The lpd.log just indicated lpd had been restarted.
I know for a fact this printer works with this nas because I've tested it using the stock firmware.
Anyone, I would like to ask if it was possible to change the entries of a file's inode table ?
For example
Code...
I was wondering if I can change the entries in this inode table's entries. For example I want to change the "Modify" entry ? I want it to reflect to day 2009-05-19 for example.
I am working on building a customized ISO image of a server based on linux. The thing is after the server is installed and run for the first time, three users have to be created for the various services to run properly. I want this to be automated. To achieve this what is was thinking is automatically enter the user entries in the /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow files through init scripts when the server starts for the first time after the installation. I tried creating user and assigning password in one of my machine, and the /etc/passwd and the /etc/shadow entries of this user I copied it into the other machine and tried login in on the other machine and everything worked fine. How I am trying to achieve this.

EasyTag will not recognise mp3 files imported from an iPod via Rhythmbox.I get an error message - " there are no files in this directory or subdirectories".Easytag will however recognise mp3s ripped from a CD on the machine.I believe I have changed permissions/ownership of the files to the username.Using Maverick 10.10
I am working on Red Hat Linux since last six months and learning it steps by steps. like configurating ftp server,NSF ,DNS and then email server. I want to learn squid server but technically before going into it what you suggest me that may I first learn to configure Linux as a router,Firewall machine or do IP masquerading on a server. Because all these things are directly or indirectly involve in squid.So guide me because going to start squid i may understand Linux IP table ,how to add entries in it,how to delete entries ,I think you understand my point which i want to ask for guidence.
