Subject: [kde-redhat-users] kubuntu-style context toolbars?
Message: 1

This past weekend I tried kubuntu on a spare machine of mine just for
fun. One thing that I found really nice was the way kubuntu modified
the way toolbars are handled in konqueror. Instead of having each
kpart add extra items into the main toolbar, a new toolbar called the
context toolbar appears. I wanted to re-create this behavior on my
fedora machine and after some digging around I think I figured out how
its done. Unfortunately, it requires modifying system installed .rc
files. The changes are minor, though span many files/rpms. For
instance, to have kpdfpart behave in this way you simple need to
modify one line within /usr/share/apps/kpdfpart/part.rc which is
provided by the kdegraphics package.

Modifying all these .rc files manually as root just seems messy. Would
it be possible to provide this sort of modification as an optional
package for kde-redhat that modifies the appropriate files? Does
something like this already exist?

cheers,
-wojciech

Hmm, I'm not sure what's possible, until you can explain a few more 
details about exactly what needs to be modified.  Sounds interesting tho.

Subject: [kde-redhat-users] X Maxing CPU After ScreenSaver Runs
Message: 3


I've been having an odd problem recently and hope someone can give me
some advice. This is KDE 3.5.4-6 under FC 6.

>From time to time, my desktop system becomes almost completely
unresponsive when it returns from the password-protected blank screen
screen-saver. The mouse moves, but nothing else functions.  If I log in
via ssh from my server and run top, it shows X running flat-out but
basically nothing else happening. No wonder nothing functions. So I have
to kill X and reload.

Any idea how I can try to diagnose this problem?

Richard

Upgrade to kde-3.5.6 which has been available for quite sometime for 
FC-6 now.

Sorry. Typo: It's KDE 3.5.6-4.

Looking at /var/log/messages &/or ~/.xsession-errors may help you find 
something. But Rex is right, upgrade to the latest version of KDE first.

Subject: Re: [kde-redhat-users] kubuntu-style context toolbars?
Message: 7

Here is a diff of the changes I made to
/usr/share/apps/kpdfpart/part.rc from kdegraphics-3.5.6-1.fc6:

48c48,49
< <ToolBar name="contextToolBar"><text>Context Toolbar</text>
---
> <ToolBar name="mainToolBar"><text>Main Toolbar</text>
>   <Separator/>

This causes a context toolbar to pop up when viewing a pdf document in
konqueror instead of those extra buttons being added to the
maintoolbar.

Based on experimentation it seems that all that is need is to change
that same line in all other .rc files for kparts which get embedded in
konq.
