KDE4.3 Beta 2 - Just Updated - How is yours?

**caf4926** · 10-Jun-2009, 10:09

I just updated kde4 Factory from Beta 1 to Beta 2 - Now in the repo's.

Pretty much everything is fine as far as I can tell. Dolphin still not working with fish://
Anyone else still having issues with fish://
I'm having to use K from kde3 ATM

Tried just about everything on my laptop and it's good.

More Updates and a roll back of a couple of core kde4 packages, changes release ver from 139 to 138
Still good for me. Except fish://

Everything's working fine here as well. Even K3b is back to being able to rip dvd's and transcode correctly.

Of course I'm using both a factory system and the kde 4.3 beta repos so I'm not sure if this input really indicates anything.

The only problem I have is that when I choose to shutdown or restart it goes to the login screen then I have to choose shutdown or restart from there and then it works. Not sure if this is kde or 11.2 related.

Edit: It only happens on my laptop, the desktop is fine. Also not looking for help, just giving my input.

Hi, just updated to 4.3b2,
fish is still not working, broken connection,
but sftp is working fine,

Love the quasi google-earth satellite view desktop background,

the krandr, multiple-monitors support is working too,
but still no compositing in kwin (intel945gm vga), when the multiple-monitors is enabled.

OK
In Dolphin I just went to Network
Then Add New Network Folder
Type = ssh
add details (Identical to my fish:// Place currently in D)
finish

It added a Folder xxxx in the Network Places
It works and reports as: fish://
in dolphin

My old link works too

Fish works for me in Dolphin. Without first doing other things. I just enter:
fish://username@ip-address

ort
(have to add port because I always change default ssh port)
And it's very fast.

In general latest packages are working OK. Have not yet found any serious bugs or glitches.

Just updated, but I am on 11.2 Milestone 2 - 2.6.30-rc8-6 (pae) i.e. total factory. I wanted to see if the KMix muted problem was cleared. There is a separate thread in this forum, mainly 11.1 since kernel or P/A update, but also brought in 11.2 factory where the problem started.

With this update its not muted, it's totally **********. I had no sound and no Kmix on reboot. Started from terminal gives big errors and says it probably crashed -- no kidding. Yast>Hardware>Sound>Other>Volume told me that Master was set at zero, so I set it and had sound. But no Kmix on trying it again -- same errors. Will pick this up in the other thread.

This enabled me to play the FF 3.5 embedded video demo. It played perfectly with rock solid picture and sound, and no plugin. This version of FF appears to perform very well.
