I'm back!
by Danny Allen on Wednesday 21/May/2008, @19:37
|
I took a break from releasing the Digests for a few weeks while I did some important and vital stuff, like moving location, etc.
But it wasn't really a break, more of a delay: all the commits from this period were kept and read, and the Digests will still be released shortly.
The next one may come on Thursday...
Danny

Welcome back, Danny - you (and, of course, the Digest :)) have been missed!

Kontact
by Parminder Ramesh on Thursday 22/May/2008, @03:54

Welcome back Danny, it's great to hear from you again :)
I must say I am very impressed with the professional look of Kontact at the moment - for a while I had to reluctantly agree that Evolution was a better choice. But now, with a beautiful design and hopefully with MS Exchange support thru Akonadi in 4.2/.3/.4, it should be the best free email program around. One other feature I hope gets implemented is the Outlook 2003/7 three column style, where the message is beside the list of emails, and not below it. But this is a minor niggle, so it matters little.
Also excited about improvements to Plasma, the "Incredible Machine"-like game in development, the work to add a KWin cube, and a million other projects from Akonadi to Phonon. KDE development has never been more interesting!

Gentoo
by Phil on Thursday 22/May/2008, @05:51

Yay, thanks Danny - was missing the Digest!
Totally off-topic - under Gentoo, does anyone know what I need to emerge to get the Plasmoids, apart from the few basic ones? I mean ones like the Comic Strip displays, etc... I'd rather pull it from Portage than install manually.

Motivation statistics
by XCG on Thursday 22/May/2008, @08:39

Hi there
In the motivation statistics seems to be a small mistake.
There are 50.5% Volunteer but the graphic beside shows something different.
Anyway, thank you for writing this interesting summery.

Marble
by Jens on Friday 23/May/2008, @00:51

Strange question: Would it be possible to create and load old Earth maps into Marble? Like the ones from nasa that show the continents 65m and 250m years ago?

Please, This Is NOT a Flame...
by Xanadu on Friday 23/May/2008, @11:19

Hey!
OK, I have to...
I've been using KDE since the pre-1.0 days (whatever shipped with RH-5.0, IIRC). I love what power and control KDE has given to me all these years.
...
...
Can I have my Desktop back? Please?
I fully respect the decision to do Something Different with the desktop, but can I have my Good Ol' Desktop back?
I was playing with the OpenSuSE KDE 4.0.4 Live CD and was drop-jawed. KDE4 is one of the most amazing and powerful things I think I've even seen my machine do. Hell ANY machine of mine, for that matter. I *DO* like the idea of having a "Desktop" a "Launch Pad", but I just want my Desktop back.
Is there a way to move it back to a 3.5.* style desktop? I know there's still the ~/Desktop where I can still put the few things I like having on my Desktop, but I can't *interact* with the Desktop the way I want to / am used to.
Is there a plugin, plasmoid, config setting, that gives me the Old Boring Desktop back?
(I use Gentoo. As you read above, Gentoo is not really making it easy to use KDE4 < 4.1. I (frankly) don't want to go through all the BS to get KDE4 on my machines if I can't really use it the way I want to (yet)).
Thanx.
M.

Newbie question: Where can I get KDE 4.1 alpha?
by Mike on Friday 23/May/2008, @16:34
|
Sorry for the newbie question:
Where can I get KDE 4.1 alpha for Kubuntu, (or if that doesn't exist for openSUSE)?
I want to try out and help hunt down problems, but I don't have the skill to compile KDE from scratch. Where would I find "prepackaged" KDE 4.1 alpha so I can install it easily and test it.
_____
(obviously this won't go onto my production system. I have a separate installation of Linux on a computer that I can experiment with. I'm not worried about stability. Quite the contrary: I expect breakages and hangups. I want to help fix them (by finding them - I'm not a programmer to fix them directly.) BEFORE KDE 4.1.0 is released. <-- Don't want to repeat the disaster that is Kubuntu 8.04 initially.)
