I'd love to use this, but I use openSUSE which doesn't use Plymouth. Will the test of the script still work? - Oct 10 2010

After compiling I tried running it and got this:

How do I compile and install this? There are no instructions in the readme. - Mar 06 2010

Its for Gnome - Jan 06 2010

Amazing app, something long missing from Linux! Microsoft finally built their equivalent into Windows with Vista/7.

Would it be possible in a later version to restrict given programs to specific hours: for example no Age of Empires (through WINE) at 6:30 in the morning? :-) - Dec 16 2009

Actually I like yellow folders because real file folders are usually yellow maybe green or orange but never blue :P - Nov 07 2009

Yay, yellow folders! :-) - Nov 06 2009

Should be part of the default Oxygen iconset! - Oct 14 2009

Thank you! - Oct 09 2009

How difficult is it for the user to add his/her own preferred translations?

For example, as a Roman Catholic I prefer to use the NJB (http://catholic.org/bible) for devotional use, as an amateur Bible scholar I tend to use the NRSV (http://www.devotions.net/bible/00bible.htm) or the NAB (http://www.usccb.org/nab/bible/).

All of them have licensing restrictions that prevent them from being used directly by FLOSS software like the Sword project but would be useful to have in this kind of lookup tool. - Oct 09 2009

I like your openSUSE sticker more than the official! :-) - Oct 05 2009

What does this theme looks like with desktop effects turned on, the screenshot isn't clear. - Jun 08 2009

What is that menu? I use KDE, and Kickoff can't look like that. I thought Gnome had multiple menus? - May 21 2009

I've got tons of cursors in Windows *.cur and *.ani formats. This script makes it easy to convert Stardock's cursors to X11 cursors, which is great, but I need to somehow get them into CursorXP format first.

Any ideas? - May 12 2009

Those worked - May 11 2009

I downloaded and tried to run this in openSUSE 11.1. First I commented out all the lines that were specific to Debian/Ubuntu, like adding the repo. I know this won't give the full experience though.

I also edited the paths in the script to point to /home/vistar7/.kde4 because that's where openSUSE stores its KDE4 settings as opposed to .kde where Ubuntu puts them.

Extracting ran into problens:

Quote:

And so on for each .tar file.

And:
Quote:

And it appears that Vistar7-configuration.tar.gz is hard-coded to .kde which again doesn't work in openSUSE.

However extracting the files and copying them by hand to the correct location worked great, I even got the Plasma theme installed!

Great work! - May 08 2009

That looks awesome! I'll give this a try in openSUSE 11.1 - May 06 2009

Something I'd like to see in a quicklauncher is keyboard shortcuts for launching items, preferably as a variable of whatever is assigned to the plasmoid.

Say Ctrl+Shift+Q.

Pressing Ctrl+Shift+Q+1 would launch the first item displayed, ...+2 would launch the second, or perhaps Ctrl+Shift+Q+K, if so defined, would launch Konqueror, ...+D would launch Dolphin etc. - Apr 06 2009

Only via Webmail (pay users get POP3) - Mar 31 2009

Yep, there are many mail checking tools in Windows but only a couple can check Yahoo's mail, and none for Linux (that I know of) so if it can be done in this plasmoid that would be wonderful. :)

But the fact that this isn't a common feature may mean its hard to do, Yahoo isn't exactly as well known as Google for their APIs. So not a high priority. - Mar 29 2009

This plasmoid almost replaces the old KDE mail checker Korn which was part of Korganizer in KDE3. I've been looking for months for a replacement in KDE4 and this is a great plasmoid!

One feature request: please show the subject and sender headers of new messages. They should flash when new mail arrives and appear again in the extender that appears when single-clicking the plasmoid. This helps the user decide whether it needs a response right away and its worth opening a mail client or if the new message can wait to be read.

I'd also like Yahoo! Webmail support but I realize that that's probably not possible. - Mar 24 2009

Okular supports RAR? It doesn't on my openSUSE system.

But if it supports RAR it should support tar and 7z and they're used to distribute large files too. - Mar 31 2009

Thank you for completing my request! - Mar 20 2009

Well based on our conversation at bugs.kde.org it looks like the KDE devs won't even consider this idea, even though its just an idea at this point. That's sad, maybe its up to the distro makers to create KCM modules for these apps for Fedora, SUSE, Ubuntu, etc. but it doesn't look like it'll ever be part of standard KDE. :-(

Thanks for trying, it is a great idea!

Keep voting 'good' if you like it folks, maybe this'll change someday but I don't think it's likely. - Mar 16 2009

Is it-crosslisted? I'm looking at it on kde-look where it belongs. - Mar 16 2009

You're welcome, I'm sorry I didn't see the proposal for adding KUser to systemsettings. But coming from a Windows background I agree that it makes sense to have all this stuff available from the same place! - Mar 14 2009

This would be great to do, users expect to manage their system settings from one place not multiple apps.

Create a wish on bugs.kde.org please - Mar 13 2009

While I realize you already made one for openSUSE I'd appreciate one using the distro's colors: green instead of blue.

I'm not sure if that's against the design philosophy of the icons you're making, that's just something that would be nice to have. - Mar 16 2009

The Kickoff menu in KDE 4.2's selection bears no resemblence to the selection for an item in the file manager. - Mar 04 2009

This is one of my favorite utilities for KDE. But it's been so long since it was last updated it doesn't support Qt4 :-( - Mar 04 2009

Nice port of the only good Microsoft window decoration to come out for XP/Vista/7. The widgets would be nice too - Mar 01 2009

Without Kwin compositing enabled the panel is green, looks horrible :-( - Mar 01 2009

I've been looking for a replacement for Dave's Quick Search Deskbar (http://dqsd.net) for Windows, which allows users to type a mnemonic for a search engine (such as gg for Google) and hit Enter and their browser opens to the search results, this is pretty close.

If that's your goal, which I find more intuitive than having to switch search engines manually, maybe use the same source as Konqueror since it already supports that kind of searching from its address bar.

Also DQSD supports a bunch of search engines by default, some of which it would be nice if your plasmoid supported regardless of your goals for this gadget: A9

Of course as an openSUSE user I'd appreciate the ability to search its package database ;-) - Feb 15 2009

Eror 404 - Feb 04 2009

I have KDE 4.1.3 on openSUSE 11.1

Here's the error I get when I run the make command

Thank you, its just that the resolution's a bit low for nowadays. - Dec 30 2008
