I was wondering if anyone has these problems. I have looked through the KDE bug site and can’t find them.
My system seems to be running a little hotter than KDE3 - just one or two degrees C
I can’t access my smb:/ locations in dolphin or Konq4. I get crashes everytime. It works just fine if I start Konq3 (even under KDE4)
karamba themes aren’t working anymore. They give an error about kore is needed (I don’t remember exactly - I will post again when I get home)
None of these are deal breakers, but just annoying. I know that KDE4 is still a work in progress. Each update gives greater improvements. But these things have been broken for the last couple of updates.
Can’t say I have any of these problems. Though Superkaramba is problematic - I’m just looking forward to a more comprehensive selection of widgets for kde4.
I have found kde4 much more stable of late. At first, I was horrified and kept switching back to kde3. But not now. 4 is my main choice, thought I may as well get familair with it.
In the early days I had to delete my /.kde4 folder and start again. But not recently.
kde4 still has miles to go to compare to the rock solid stability of kde3. But it’s a new beast and we’ll all enjoy training it.
Thank goodness we can expect better than a re-hashed explorer.exe
1 or 2 degrees C is a statistical anomaly. FWIW, I find my system runs a little more comfortable with KDE4 (ie. the fans don’t kick in).
That’s worth opening a bug report for at bugzilla.novell.com, since it shouldn’t be happening. Technically they won’t “support” build-service packages, but since it could impact 11.0, it’s worth posting.
I’ve had the problems with Karamba off and on. It seems that every so often the build services packages will break karamba support. In a few days, or the next update, things get fixed. The error is about karamba can not load the applet because Kore is missing and/or corrupt. It adds that I should check the documentation for dependencies and re-install.
I have searched the repos for Kore and came up with some python packages (which I had installed, but re-installed anyway). But that was it.
If you need more information then I will try and get it tonight.
