Message: 2

Hi,

Regarding some very minor bugs I found in the pre releases of kde4.x I am 
pleased to find some of the bugs are fixed (or almost fixed) in 4.1

I do know how stretched the KDEPIM team are sadly.

Running from within Kontact:

1. It is now possible to configure Akregator.
Some config options in Akregator are still not possible to config #167749

2. System notifications/sound events can be configured now, but sadly they 
still do not work. Kmail, Akregator etc

3. The initial startup of Akregator, the option to hide the start page fails:
URL: config:/disable_introduction
Protocol: config
Additional Information: Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Unknown 
protocol 'config'.

Would be interesting if others can confirm these.

Off to search kde.bugs later..

Cheers

Colin

There are on going issues with the panel, I don't have the bug numbers to 
hand. For more info you could search plasma-dev/plasma-bugs.

I can't help here, what is the ondemand governor?

The ondemand governor is the cpufreq controller for automatically adjusting
CPU speed with process demand.  What I am seeing is one core alternating
between full speed and half speed.  Doing a watch "cat /proc/cpuinfo"  will
show the varying speeds.  This would indicate brief periods of high usage.
When desktop effects are off both cores stay at low speed.

On another note, any ETA for the ability to add laucher buttons for
applications to the panel/desktop?

Thanks.

The ability to right click an item in kickoff, and "Add to Panel" or 
"Add to Desktop" or "Add to Favorites" has been in kde-4.0 since day 1.

Or are you asking about something else?

Subject: [kde-redhat-users] KDE 4.1 - Save session?
Message: 6

Hello all,

I'm trying to save the current session (After setting the session save
mode to manual in System Settings->Advanced->Session Manager) but I
cannot seem to find the "Save session" menu entry.
According to google, this option should be under "Leave->session" but
at least on my setup, the session menu only include "Logout", "Lock
"and "Switch User".

I tried to logout and login, but nada.

What am I missing?

- Gilboa

The function is already there, if you use the context menu withhin 
kickoff. However it is often quite irritating, you have to unlock 
widgets on your desktop. before this options will appear.

This is correct, however if the Widgets are locked as Florian  wrote all you 
will be able to do is "add to favourites" Not sure if this was intended or not 
and it took me a while to work it out.
