I have OpenSuSE 11.1 with KDE.I tried to install several keyboard layouts, at first with sax2, which didn't work.Then I tried it via KDE Controllcenter, with kxkb, which seemed to work fine. However, if I reboot or restart KDE kxkb does not start automatically.I tried to start kxkb manually over the console (so I could start it through a script), but that doesn't seem to be possible

After spending more than an hour searching the Web for an answer I've decided to resort to the help of my favourite forum. I run KDE 4.2.4 on Linux Mint 7. In the past (in KDE 3) I found "Enable sticky switching" option of kxkb very useful, but for some reason it's missing in this version. I wonder therefore if there is a way to enable it manually.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to use a combination that avoids alphabetic/punctuation characters because that way I have a consistent physical position on different layouts. Control_R+Menu fits that requirement and is also located at a very convenient position.This combination used to work in KDE 3.5 for the global kxkb switch action, or any keyboard action for that matter. In KDE 4, trying to assign Menu by pressing the Menu key always activates the keyboard trap widget's context menu, in this case giving me the What's this?How do I work around that problem? Alternatively, do you have a snippet that I can paste into $HOME/.kde/share/config/kglobalshortcutsrc and which works?

I have an 1TB hard drive, half of it for Windows XP SP3, another half for OpenSUSE 11.4. After installing OpenSUSE, it didn't take me much time to notice that there was something wrong with KDE: sometimes it loaded quite fast, as expected, but most of the time I'd have to wait around 1 minute in that loading screen. Then I updated the kernel, as well as KDE itself, but that didn't solve the problem.
After that I tried to start the system using Enlightnment, and it was lightning fast compared to KDE, however, I didn't quite like its interface, and for some reason GNOME refused to start. All that was too frustrating to me, so I gave up and have been using Windows for the last few weeks. Got sick of it now and here I am on OpenSUSE again. Oh, it feels sooo much better! BUT, I'm still with the same problem.
My specs are as follow:
Motherboard: Gigabyte MA78GM-S2H (with updated BIOS, version F11)
Processor: AMD Phenom X3 8450
Memory: 2GB
Videocard: Nvidia Geforce 8500GT (using NVIDIA proprietary drivers)
OpenSUSE 11.4
KDE 4.6.0
Did I forget anything important?
Ps.: I didn't have these problems with Mandriva 2010.2, which, if I'm correct, used the same KDE version.
I have installed the package "Web and LAMPP Server" with the YAST2 installation manager on my openSuse 11.1. The installation runs well without any error messages. When I try to start Apache2 in the YAST2 runlevel manager or from the command line it fails.The start problem seems to me simular as amavis configuration. I have to configure /etc/amavisd.conf before a was able to start amavis in the YAST2 runlevel manager.
How can I make Apache2 to start? Do I have to configure a special file before I am able to start Apache2 in the YAST2 runlevel manager or why doesn�t Apache2 start?

My system:
openSUSE 11.2
Linux 2.6.31.12-0.2-desktop x86_64
KDE: 4.4.4 "release 3"
My problem: I just did a "zypper dup" to upgrade to KDE 4.4.4 from 4.3.5. All seem to have went well aside from that openoffice won't start anymore. I do get the initial splash and it goes away but then nothing else happens. I have tried both by clicking an .odt document and by starting it from Kickstart menu, same negative result. All other programs seem to be running fine as before. The current version of OO is now 3.2.1.6-1.1-x86_64
What I've tried: I tried to swith all packages to OpenOffice community repository,restarted pc but the result is still the same. I also did an unconditional update, restarted but the result is still the same.

A few months back I reinstalled 11.3 (KDE) over a broken version of 11.3 (kde) the new installation did not allow kde to start. Instead I got a blank screen with a terminal window in the top left corner. If I try " startx " I get the following-
xauth: file /home/fran/.serverauth.2973 does not exist
Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
if this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock and start again
xinit: XIO: fatal IO error 11 (resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0"
connection to X server lost after 7 requests (7 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
Removing .X0-lock did not help so at the time I resorted to running gnome untill 11.4 came out. needless to say I have now installed 11.4 and still have the same result IE no KDE .

I have noticed that are a few applications (non part of the kde apps) that do not launch with alt + f2 (command name). Instead I have to use konsole first and write the command name, then the apps appears successfully.
The same problem I have of course with the same apps if I make a desktop shorcut. These apps never show up! Thus I would like to ask you what should I do to make these shortcuts and alt+f2 launches to work.

My videocard, a Radeon HD2900GT from Sapphire has some kind of legendary hate with a new-ish version of Xorg. If I install 11.1, it works fine until I get it to update (haven't gone as far as installing it and stepping versions manually... yet). SuSE 11.2 had never even gotten past installation for me. Having recovered my tower after quite a while away, I decided to regain my linux legs as well. SuSe, as usual didn't work. I ran to Fedora 13 and got it to work, albeit with no support for 3D acceleration. Troubleshooting there, though served as a means of reacquainting myself with the console, X, and linux as a whole. But since Fedora never managed to satisfy me as a distro, I decided to come back to SuSE and use my recently acquired tricks to try and get SuSE to at least install and boot. With the plan being to try and install flgrx once I get the chance. After a lot of trying I managed to shut down X at installation by not installing xorg-x11-driver-video and xorg-x11-driver-video-radeonhd. This forced the configuration part of the installation to run in text mode, allowing me to get into a text system. Within that I tried then Zypping those packages back in and seeing if I could get X to start. Then started the strange part. SuSE never had an xorg.conf, so I generated one with (#) "Xorg-configure". I then went into the generated file, but even if I change my vga driver to "vesa" withing that one, "Xorg -config /root/xorg.conf.new" will not get X to start.

Your databases are still using the format of PostgreSQL 8.3.
Therefore a backup of the old PostgreSQL server program will be used
until you have saved and removed your old database files
