Hi laloch,

running 'pkg-config --variable=interfaces_dir dbus-1' gives no output on Fedora 28.

Cheers - Aug 17 2018

Hi,
For Fedora I changed the cmake command to
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib64/qt5 ..
Also "src/CMakeFiles/kwin_osdclock_config.dir/build.make" didn't seem to have the full path to org.kde.kwin.Effects.xml.
I edited it to "/usr/share/dbus-1/interfaces/org.kde.kwin.Effects.xml" (in 2 places) before running make.
Thanks,

Nice kwin clock, good replacement for beclock (which I used in KDE4).
I had a couple of issues getting it to work in Fedora but nothing I couldn't work around.
Thanks,

Managed to fix my firefox icon problem by switching icon theme the reverting back to original icon set.

It's possible to customise icons by editing the .desktop file.

Hi
First image with Firefox open before "Show a launcher when not running" is selected.
Second image after and Firefox is closed.

Thanks. - Sep 06 2016

Thanks Michail, got it working with tranparent "oxygen South" panel.
Some applications like in my case firefox when "Show a launcher when not running" is selected just leaves a blank space/icon.
I think you are working on drag and drop to re-order the launchers, I think ksmoothdock had an option for move left/right (up/down).
It would be good to fefine a custom icon for a launcher.
Keep up the good work. - Sep 05 2016

This is really starting to look good Michail.
A good successor to my old favourites kooldock and ksmoothdock.
Is there any information on how to use the now dock panel?
I can add the widget to the desktop OR to another standard plasma5 panel but I'm not
sure how to use the now dock panel.
Any suggestions?

Thanks...

doesn't always minimize totally on all distributions.
In RHEL7 (SL7) it doesn't with KDE 4.14 but it does in RHEL6 (SL6) with KDE 4.12.
IS there an easy way to fix/debug the issue.

Thanks for a great time widget. - Jul 14 2015

Hi,

looks like it is all taken care of in rpmbuild by macro

%cmake_kde4

in

/etc/rpm/macros.kde4

Thanks,

Hi thomas12777,

I can't remember if I tried your suggestion but I ended up using

cmake -DLIB_SUFFIX=64 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..

It appears that LIB_SUFFIX isn't set and is used in
/usr/share/kde4/apps/cmake/modules/KDELibsDependencies.cmake

to set the /usr/lib /usr/lib64 PATH.

This should help me with plasmoids also.


Thanks again,


GZU

Hi,

I've copied the .so files from /usr/lib/kde4 to /usr/lib64/kde4 and beclock is displaying again.

is there anyway to define lib64 as the default location?

Thanks for your help,

GZU - Dec 02 2014

Hi,

I might be wrong but it looks like beclock is being installed into

/usr/lib/kde4

but should be installed into

/usr/lib64/kde4

I've found the same issue with plasmoids compiled from source

CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX = /usr

output below

Hi,
no flickering or anything when I move a playing video below the beclock position/area.
I don't think 4.10 works either although I intend to try again, support information below.

I think something is still wrong, but it could be me

It won't compile with the #if 1, I have to put in #if 0, then it compiles OK (and installs) but the clock doesn't display.

I used
git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/bekwinfx/code bekwinfx-code

Then edited beclock.cpp


If that was wrong then please let me know as I am not familiar with git.

Thanks for the help,

GZU - Nov 30 2014

I can recompile that with the older kde packages and it works with the older packages (yum downgraded). After I upgrade the packages beclock still is not visible and I get errors on compiling

I can get back to a working beclock by yum downgrading using

yum downgrade kwin-gles-libs kde-workspace-devel kde-workspace-libs kde-workspace plasma-scriptengine-python kcm_colors kgreeter-plugins plasma-scriptengine-ruby libkworkspace ksysguard-libs ksysguard ksysguard

Thanks for the feedback, I thought the project was dead.

beclock doesn't display anymore on RHEL7 variants.
It worked OK up until about a month ago.
I can get it to work again by yum downgrading a number of kde packages (about 10) including the workspace rpms.

Anyone have any ideas??

Thanks for looking.....

Hi Thomas12777,

New version error messages helped me I just had to add the packages for

xcb-util-wm
xcb-util-renderutil
xcb-util-keysyms

and their devels for compiling.

Thanks,

Hi Thomas12777,

See below on compilation, tahnks for looking into this.

Looks like the git version is broken in Fedora 19 KDE 4.11. Seems to be related to xcb, anyone got any ideas or fixes.

Thanks....... - Sep 24 2013

Hi,

just upgraded to the latest version and I like the rotating seconds option. Any chance of the option that the rings stay static and it is just the central text that rotates.

Thanks for a great KDE/kwin app.

Thanks for getting back to me.

version 2.0.4 compiles OK in Fedora 19 but not in RHEL6/CentOS6 with taglib 1.9.1.

Any chance this is due to an older gcc version?

gzu - Oct 21 2013

Looks like taglib 1.9.1 may be causing issues during compilation

Is there a version that will work with older Qt versions like those on Scientific Linux 6. I get the following error on compilation

Hi,

Is there anyway to change the font, I can't see that option.

Thanks,

gzu - Mar 01 2012

Hi,

I'm using fedora 16 and Scientific Linux 6.
In those distributions you need both kdelibs3 and kdebase3 (and their dependencies). Package names may be different in your distribution.

GZU - Jan 06 2012

Hi and Thanks,

That looks like it is working for me now, just the icon size but I can live with that. Does the icon have a black border that might me causing it to look smaller?

Thanks again,

gzu - Sep 15 2011

Here is the screenshot

Also the icon is very small on a small dock comapared with the other icons.

Thanks,

Hi,

The plasmoid is now starting up see output below

However it seems that I only have control over the first and last CPU, there are no options for minfreq and maxfreq for CPUs 1-4.

Thanks for the help,

Hi,

More debugging I'm afraid.

Thanks,

Has the code been updated it looks like I'm getting the same errors. I have a 6 core CPU.

Hi,

Of course if I uncheck "use window manager for animation" yakuake works perfectly.

Doh!

Thanks, - Mar 30 2011

Hi,

Previously on KDE 4.5.5 (fedora 14) with the taskbar at the top of the screen yakuake would drop down from below the taskbar and would raise without any corruption of the display. In 4.6 it corrupts the taskbar at the top when it drops down, and the taskbar does not immediately redraw itself when yakuake is closed/raised so can stay corrupted for a short time.

This is not a major issue as it doesn't actually break anything.

Thanks,

G. - Mar 27 2011

Seems to not play 100% with taskbar at top of screen in Fedora 14 KDE 4.6. - Mar 24 2011

Hi,

Thanks for that, can you make it available for download? I can't see it at

http://kde.maniatek.com/audex/download

Thanks,

GZU - Jan 09 2011

Hi again,

any chance of adding the non-integer ogg quality to Audex. I once downloaded a version that did this from svn but it doesn't seem to have made it into newer versions. This would allow something like a quality of 8.3 which approximates to a bitrate of 275 kbs.

Thanks, - Jan 06 2011

hi,

Sorted this out myself, for Fedora you need

target_link_libraries(audex ${CDPARANOIA_LIBRARIES} ${AUDEX_ID3_LIBRARIES} ${KDE4_KDEUI_LIBS} ${KDE4_KUTILS_LIBS} ${KDEMULTIMEDIA_LIBRARIES} ${KDE4_KIO_LIBRARY} ${QT_QTXML_LIBRARY} )

as a replacement in CMakeLists.txt.

Hope this helps someone else.

Thanks for the app, keep up the good work.

Hi,

Does this do anything different to the server status plasmoid?

Thanks, - Nov 11 2010

Hi,

Thanks for the nice plasmoid.
When I set up my first server it did not use my default wallet and I had to create a wallet with the name "kdewallet". Is there a way either for it to use the default wallet or to define the one to use.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks,
