KDE Commit-Digest for 25th February 2007

Posted by Danny Allen on Sunday 25/Feb/2007, @13:14
from the it's-that-time-of-the-week dept.
In this week's KDE Commit-Digest: Solid gets support for NetworkManager. Support for changing the font colour of the taskbar. File format import work in KVocTrain. More KDE 4 porting takes place in KTorrent. Noatun now uses Phonon as its only backend. Work is begun on refactoring the user interface of Amarok 2.0. The Codeine video player is imported into KDE SVN and ported to CMake, Phonon and KDE 4. Progress in the 'krunner' element of Plasma. KAlgebra is imported into KDE SVN into the playground/edu module. Search improvements in Kate, with a move to the kdesdk module.

The music for the tv comercials is nice. I believe it can be used somewhere if not for this purpose.

TechBase
by Lans on Sunday 25/Feb/2007, @13:52

>> All hail techbase.kde.org

Word. It is very nice-looking (although it would be even better if it filled the whole browser width. Hah, can't stop complaining about that one, sorry) and contains useful information.

Thank you for your hard work everyone!

Sweet
by Devon on Sunday 25/Feb/2007, @15:24

The oxygen icons are really coming along nicely, I love the new left icon Nuno Pinheiro made (http://websvn.kde.org/*checkout*/trunk/playground/artwork/Oxygen/Pinheiro/left.svg?revision=635719), I hope all the media player icons look like this.

The work in KGet looks awesome as well and I am really excited about finally having a network manager that works for every distro on KDE.

On a side note, is there any screenshots of the new KDE development snapshot? Just so I can get more of an idea about where KDE is headed.

Small error in the summary
by Cerulean on Sunday 25/Feb/2007, @15:37

> "with a move to the kdesvn module."

I think kdesdk was meant.

Here's the most silly request for KDE4 :-)
by Anonymous on Sunday 25/Feb/2007, @15:56

I'd really LOVE to have the underlined letter in every menu or button hidden by defalt and shown only when one presses the alt key, just like in Windows. It really gives a "cleaner" feeling.
Is it possible to do it without having to patch Qt?

KGet improvements
by Ant Bryan on Sunday 25/Feb/2007, @20:06

Congrats and thanks to the KGet developers. It's nice to see some screenshots and hear about the new features (mmm metalink, thanks guys). From the plans, this will be THE download manager.

I can't wait to see KDE 4. The Oxygen icons look really nice, and all the feature/improvements sound great.

performance
by personmandude on Sunday 25/Feb/2007, @23:45

So do you think KDE 4 will turn out to be usable on my 550MHz box, like KDE 3.5 is? Will it be faster? or slower with all the fancy transparent SVG stuff...???

On a different note, the new KGet sounds awesome!

Codeine in KDE SVN? Cool!
by Richard Van Den Boom on Monday 26/Feb/2007, @02:42

I really like this video player : starts fast, simple and sensible UI. Just perfect as it is. With Kaffeine for DVB and Amarok for music, this media suite provides everything I need.

Question about NEPOMUK
by Ben on Tuesday 27/Feb/2007, @01:03

I like the implications NEPOMUK has for desktop search. And I'm looking forward to that in KDE4. However I don't have any use for shareing meta-data across the internet, would it be possible to have KDE4 without that part of NEPOMUK installed?
