I'm diggen the new tab-style in Konsole. Anyone know how i can move it bake to the top? That makes more sence to me.

Also i've noted that konq is getting progressivly more unstable :evil:

Shouldn't the opisite happen as it aproches release? Anyone else notice this.

Other that that, loven it.

THANKS OF THE BUILDS IAMLARRYBOY!!!! much faster than compiling on my pII400 lappy

Konsole: Settings -> Tabbar -> Top

It's annoying that with the new tab style text flickers when the system bell sounds. It didn't with the old one.

Hi,

I got kdebase compiled (had to fix some things on my on, but it works). Now I've got one (annoying) problem:
The font konsole uses is not anti-aliased. Now that would be no problem, I just wanted to see the new features and then go back to 3.1.4 (well, it's slotted). But the font in my old (3.1.4) konsole is now broken, too.
Looks very ugly, really ;-)

Does anyone know how to fix that? I would be very grateful.

David

I'm having a problem with kopete. It starts fine and I'm able to connect to MSN, Yahoo and Jabber. I can send and receive messeges, except that the received messages don't get displayed. I can see the "whoever is typing a message..." in the status bar, but the chat window stays completely blank; it doesn't even display outgoing messages. I recompiled kdenetwork, but it didn't fix the problem. Anyone have this problem too?

I too have noticed that konq is action up, when I copy something from samba network smb://whatever it always stalls when the file is complete... :( anyone know why, I have to mount it and then it works.

This is to iamlarryboy:
Please emerge xscreensaver before you make your next build. it will give you and us SIGNIFICANTLY more and better screensavers.

Bushwakko:
Did you try the trick that corey_s suggested? It worked like a charm for me

Kwrite and Kate are broken; "save as" doesn't work. I tried compiling kdebase myself and I keep getting this:

Hey everybody I am back. I am glad to see that a workarrounc has been found for kdm. I am emerging xscreensaver right now. yes konqueror is unstable. yes i broke the script (again). I will update the script with the next builds. I should have builds ready by tommorrow as long as there are no compile time bugs.

ps: the hunt was a sucess in case anyone is interested.

Hey! new builds. I'll provide more info later.

Thanks for the builds!
<rant>I was hoping some annoying bugs will be resolved, but alas...
1) Courier font is messed up - anyone know how to turn it off completely? X refuses to start if I remove the directory it's in from XF86Cconfig. I've had this bug since qt-3.2.1

2) Flash and Java don't work in Konqueror. I get this for nspluginviewer:

How are you able to compile? I've been trying to compile kdebase from CVS, and I keep getting the "Kate::Document::defaultEncoding" error. Are you somehow skipping over Kate??

Hey sorry for the short post but I was in a hurry. With these new builds KDM "should" work. If not try the workaround. I emerged xscreensaver so there are many more of those. Finally the script should work now. I really gotta stop breaking it. A big thanks as always goes out to ForumSlacker for fixing my blunder.

Ok Larry, could you tell us your USE flags, so we can at least get to your level.

The new build works great here. Kate and kwrite seem to work fine and Kdm is finally back working here

.
I do have a couple of ongoing problems I've had with these builds (since mid sept.)
1. GL screensavers will run fine at first and then lock-up after about 20-30 minutes. Mouse/keyboard movement will bring the screen back to life.
2. XMMS segfaults with the arts plugin. I'm not sure if this is XMMS or KDE. Xmms plays fine using alsa or oss, but will not use arts (for me this means system sounds or xmms - not both)
I honestly can't say whether these issues are a result of using Kde from cvs or not but maybe someone else has noticed this.

Thanks again
