  KDE 3.4.1 Released
KDE Official News Posted by Jonathan Riddell on Tuesday 31/May/2005, @07:08
from the Ομάδα-εξελληνισμού-του-kde dept.
KDE 3.4.1 has been released. This is the first translation and bugfix release to the 3.4 series, it includes all security updates to date, numerous minor fixes and improved translations including a new Greek translation pack. See the 3.4.1 Release Announcement for full details and the Changelog for a full list of updates. If you want to test out KDE 3.4.1 we have a new version of the Klax Live CD. Packages are currently available for Conectiva Linux and Kubuntu, see the 3.4.1 Info Page for how to download. Packages for SuSE are currently being uploaded and will be available soon. If you want to compile the sources yourself try using Konstruct which has been updated for this new release.

Thank you, I really appreciate the bug fixes!

Here's the Slackware 10.1 packages (well KLAX packages works perfectly with Slackware 10.1)

Thanks to Binner (or who-so-ever are the KLAX developer) for your cool KLAX iso images :)

OT, kmail
by Michal on Tuesday 31/May/2005, @10:43
Hi, I just switched to kde from gnome. The 3.4.0 release is great. There are a few kmail annoyances that I have fixed(really poor defaults) and a few more that I hope can be.

I really dislike the mailscanner attempted fraud stuff. I can tell the difference myself much better than the computer.

How can I get my sent mail to go into the sent folder on my IMAP server?

Cleaning KDE
by Jouni Hätinen on Tuesday 31/May/2005, @11:24
Is there any change that KDE programs would be cleaned up before KDE 4? E.g. there are lots of irrelevant menus and menu entries in the default Konqueror view. The simple browser view is much better. It should definitely be the default. The KControlCenter is worst of all. It's very illogical and there are tons of stupid entries, like "Sony Vaio Laptop", which is visible even if there's no single laptop in the whole house. And KDE Components doesn't say anything to me or any average user.

IDEA1 behaviour
by Elad on Tuesday 31/May/2005, @12:28
It seems that applications using an IDEA1-like interface behave differently now (at least for me). Sub-windows are now sticky by default and an "unsticking" operation is not preserved. Is this a style change or a bug (or am I missing something)?

Thanks,
Elad

Google Summer of Code
by leo spalteholz on Tuesday 31/May/2005, @22:20
Sorry, offtopic, but does anyone know if any KDE devs are planning on mentoring in this?

Check it out:
http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html

Faq for mentoring organizations:

Could be some free manpower for KDE.

Bugs not solved
by Jeroen on Wednesday 01/Jun/2005, @03:52
I try to understand why they have waited so long for this bugfix release, without solving the major bugs. Like:

* KMail/Kontact: When setting bogofilter as your spamkiller with the option to generate filters for it and adding those those filters to the toolbar, Kontact crashes when you open the kmail-part. When having kmail as your default component or your last component, KOntact can start anymore and crashes right away.
* Kmail: Toolbar-icons for the spamfilter (see above) are not visible on the toolbar, allthough they are there when you go to toolbar-settings-dialog.
* Kmail: When setting a shortcut to the manual spam-filter (I want to use alt+s) (see above), the shortcut is not saved and can only used in the current session.
* Konqueror (filemanager): When deleting files (to trash or not to trash) Konqueror crashes once in a while. These crashes where introduced in 3.4.0, but are still present in 3.4.1. Very irritating.

All those bugs are not mine alone, users in ircchannel #kde also had the bogofilter-bugs and the unstable filemanager-bugs.

So please fix those bugs ASAP!?

Jeroen

What happened to mouse wheel scrolling?
by Kåre on Wednesday 01/Jun/2005, @22:57
What happened to mouse wheel scrolling in Konqueror?? In KDE 3.4.0 The scrolling is fine, but in 3.4.1 Konqueror continues to scroll for a short time after you have released the scroll wheel on webpages.
If this is a feature PLEASE tell me how to turn it OFF. It is not as bad as in IE but it is still annoying.

kclock.kss screensaver
by Melchior FRANZ on Thursday 02/Jun/2005, @11:10
That's slightly OT, but I came across a funny page yesterday: someone "ported" (or rather cloned) my ... err KDE's kclock.kss screensaver (you find it under Miscellaneous/Clock) to Mac OS. Got some nice reviews. :-)
