re: Pls remove /etc/kde/kdm/kdmrc before install

Can this be made part of the doinst.sh file for kde 4.6.2, so that it is remove automatically when the package is installed.

[hata_ph]

VL don't use kdm and it shouldn't have a kdmrc come as default for VL7. I have spoken with Vec and he do agree to remove the default kdm setting from the VL7 for the coming release.

[stretchedthin]

I have moved all packages from you contrib folder to testing.

Please testers... bon appettit

Ahh, I understand.

[hata_ph]

I need to rebuild all with mysql. Pls remove it until further notice...sorry about that

[hata_ph]

I have rebuild kde-4.6.2 (build 2) with mysql support. It is in the testing repo. Pls try it...

I notice I cannot mount my secondary HDD in kde/dolphin/thunar...error as below

An error occurred while accessing '5.0 Gib Hard Drive', the system responed: org.freedesktop.UDisks.Error.PermissionDenied: Authentication is required

I cannot shutdown my VL7 from the shutdown button too...

You just had a run in with udisk/upower and the policikit stuff...

You can do one of 2 options with udisks:

1- create a file named /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/11-my-polkit-udisks.pkla and add the following contents:

Code:

[udisks full access]
#Identity=unix-user:<your username>
Identity=unix-group:users #or better wheel and/or disk groups?
#Action=org.freedesktop.udisks.* #could be dangerous?
Action=org.freedesktop.udisks.drive-eject;org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount
ResultAny=yes

As you can see in the comments, you need to decide which group to give permissions to, it could even be just your own user's group. Also, I commented out the all actions line and allowed only mount and eject. I just checked and seem to be using the 2nd option here...

2-  edit /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.udisks.policy, change no to yes in the  and <allow_active> lines for <action id="org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount"> and <action id="org.freedesktop.udisks.drive-eject">. If it it doesn't work do it for the <allow_any> lines too, but I just checked and don't seem to need it here. Something like this:

Code:

  <action id="org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-mount">
    <description>Mount a device</description>
    <description xml:lang="da">Montér en enhed</description>
    <message>Authentication is required to mount the device</message>
    <message xml:lang="da">Autorisering er påkrævet for at montere et fil system</message>
    <defaults>
      <allow_any>no</allow_any>
      <allow_inactive>no</allow_inactive>
      <allow_active>yes</allow_active>
    </defaults>
  </action>
  <action id="org.freedesktop.udisks.drive-eject">
    <description>Eject media from a device</description>
    <message>Authentication is required to eject media from the device</message>
    <message xml:lang="da">Autorisering er påkrævet for at skubbe medie ud af en enhed</message>
    <defaults>
      <allow_any>no</allow_any>
      <allow_inactive>no</allow_inactive>
      <allow_active>yes</allow_active>
    </defaults>
  </action>

A similar fix might work with upower, editing: /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.upower.policy. I misplaced my notes on how to create a /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/12-my-polkit-upower.pkla file.

Installing polkit-kde-agent-1 solve the mount secondary hdd issue...but still cannot shutdown/logout from KDE-4.6.2

[stretchedthin]

Anything that uses sound in the kde4 seems to fail with the following warning.
WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin could not be loaded


found this link as it seems to apply, but I thing the symbolic link will need a little tweeking for vl.

ln -s /usr/lib/kde4/plugins/phonon_backend /usr/lib/qt/plugins

do the trick...I will rebuild kdebase-runtime for that

btw...when i run juk from CLI it prompt error message

juk: error while loading shared libraries: libmusicbrainz.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Seem like libmusicbrainz-3.0.3 is using /usr/lib/libmusicbrainz3.so.6. Install libmusicbrainz-2.1.5 from slapt-get/gslapt did solve the problem.

[hata_ph]

Turn off logoff sound allow me to shutdown/restart/logoff from kde-4.6.2. Do anyone have any idea of the root cause?

http://osdir.com/ml/kde-bugs-dist/2009-08/msg02999.html

EDIT: Installpkg phonon-backend-xine solve the cannot shutdown/logoff issue for kde-4.6.2. I have build the package and it is in my contrib folder. Some one pls upload move it to VL7 repo.

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=326393

So about the libmusicbrainz issue. Should i drop it or use the 2.1.5 version or create a symlink libmusicbrainz.so.4 pointing to libmusicbrainz3.so.6?

[hata_ph]

For the libmusicbranz error...I have rebuild libmusicbrainz to include a symlink. I have upload to my contrib folder. Some one pls move to the testing repo and remove the old libmusicbrainz-3.0.3-i586-2vl7. Thanks

Hi hata_ph.  I've upgraded libmusicbrainz with your symlinked version in the repo's.  Also, the other fixes you mentioned on the irc channel have been done as well as the changes to the kde4-meta package.

[hata_ph]

Thanks...do you encounter any sound issue with juk?

Tested sound at startup, in juk and in kscd. All, worked great.   I'll test some more individual apps tomorrow, but it's looking really good.
