yeah, the latest updates resolved the problem, so it's working normal again

I think there was a update in KDE 3.5.9 to 3.5.10 in stable on 12.2. Anyone remembers it?
I would like to try a new KDE, but without leaving the stable branch. But wait for it until a new version of Slackware comes out is too long!

Code:

Sat Nov 7 22:09:46 UTC 2009
l/phonon-4.3.1-x86_64-2.txz: Added.
       Phonon in Qt is missing support files needed by KDE, so this package
       restores the missing pieces. The Phonon library, include files, and
       pkgconfig files will remain in the Qt package, as those are the most
       up-to-date versions. This package will contain the xine and gstreamer
       backends and other files needed by KDE. The gstreamer backend source
       is taken from the newer sources in Qt, not from the standalone Phonon.
       Sorry about the misfire last time... this stuff should work. :-)
l/qt-4.5.3_063bded-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt.
       Use -phonon -no-phonon-backend options.

Now, that was quick! Thanks to Pat and the crew for reacting so quickly!

Hi, guys!

I have a problem with my slackware64 13.0 after updating KDE to 4.3.3 thru gslaptget...

everything looks fine, BUT THERE ARE NO ICONS AT ALL!

Also, there are no icons in any KDE apps, if I run it in any other WM.

Log says:

Quote:

QPainter::begin: Cannot paint on a null pixmap
QPainter::translate: Painter not active
QPainter::end: Painter not active, aborted

Does anybody know how to fix it?...

Do you have the oxygen-icons package installed?

Nope... But I fixed it by installing this package... Why does gslapt didn't do it by default?)

Thank you so much, guys!!! You are so cool! I'm from Russia and nobody from the local LUG knows how to fix it =)

P.S. Sorry for my English.

Welcome to you too!

My upgrade to 4.3.3 was fine, except that Help Center started warning something about it can't write to 'khelpcenterrc'. A quick look showed the file was owned by root(?). Deleted it and the Help fired up without warnings, automatically recreating the file.

You may consider using slackpkg instead. You can run:

Code:

slackpkg install-new

and it would have caught the new oxygen package. This is the way I do my updates:

Code:

slackpkg update
slackpkg install-new
slackpkg upgrade-all

Make sure to always read the Changelog though since you'll find there specific instructions of whether or not you need to add or remove a specific package.

Hope this helps!

or make an iso with http://www.slackware.no/makeSlackISOs.sh with the packages from the slackware(64)-current. like i did..

btw, it`s very, very, very, very stable the kde from the -current

Hello,
I've updated my current installation, too.
But under KDE 4.3.3 (x86_64) I noticed strange
behavior of different apps. So, hangs my Konsole
somethimes, on auto-completion using the tab-key
and so it looses for a while it's content. Another
strange thing this is the fullscreen mode in VLC
(1.0.3-AlienBuild), if it is on, it don't hide the
KDE panel. This happened through the update from
KDE 4.3.2 to 4.3.3.

Maybe this has something to do with the updated
qt version, so KDE needs to be rebuild against this
new version?

Best Regards,
Jack.

JokerBoy · 11-11-2009, 12:44 PM

the same thing here: http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/4643/snapshot13.png

for now i use xine, works fine for me.

kde 4.3.3 is compiled against qt-4.5.3_063bded but, after kde was compiled qt was rebuilted, so i don`t think it`s a problem with that. i guess..

I'm also experiencing this very problem.

Upgraded to 4.3.3 -current and everything works great here (not in response to VLC issue posteed above). Everything keeps getting better. Thanks Slackware team.
