Qt Widgets by feda12 2 comments

I made a toolbar of it, changed selection effect and added a mouse-over effect to make it look like the creator bar. Nevertheless a nicer reimplementation, would be nice. - Jun 14 2012

Various Plasma Theming by mgraesslin 178 comments

have same problem on core i7...

so i think this problem is because of some double-updates on special events or maybe because of unclean paintevent-code.

it is EXTREMELY slow to resize and the delay of clicking on windows and moving them is there too ... curious - Jul 27 2009

at the moment, my laptop is broken and i can't test it. but it seems to be a mistake which can easy get fixed. - Jun 29 2009

if you configure it to be a linear panel, there should be a feature to auto raise or to be always in front of windows (like the default panel). at the moment the application starter is not very useful, because you have to switch back to the desktop every time. - May 24 2009

hmm:
i looked into the sources. maybe you can try it the hard way and comment out:

if(!(nv_card->caps & SMARTDIMMER))
{
fprintf(stderr, "Error!\n");
fprintf(stderr, "Smartdimmer is only supported on certain (HP/SamsungSony/Zepto) laptops using a Geforce 6200/7x00Go/8x00Go. If you want support on your laptop contact the author.\n");
return 0;
}

in smartdimmer.c; recompile and test it with the smartdimmer executable. but i dont know what could happen. maybe the application crashes or your desktop crashes until next reboot. i think if it works for you the maintainer will start to add support for your laptop. or i will add a "force"-method into my al. greetings. - May 15 2009

there is the forum:
http://sourceforge.net/forum/?group_id=21335

there is a chance, that your card is supported in a new svn release too. i will check that some time.

i did it that way, but i wasn't able to test that... i only have a nvidia card and wrote the code blind... - May 14 2009

Plasma 4 Extensions by dgrat87 33 comments

i added

IF( CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR STREQUAL "x86_64" )
SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES(bar PROPERTIES COMPILE_FLAGS "-fPIC")
ENDIF( CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR STREQUAL "x86_64" )

to my cmakefiles which build the static libraries. i guess this should work on 64 bit machines.
i had the idea to use static libs, because i dont want to mess up the systems with shared libs in /usr/lib(64) and so on and keep the cmakelists clean and easy to read. but i am not sure, whether this idea was a really good one...

thx and greetings

hmm complicated. i am not a cmake-pro. but i found that http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2007-May/014350.html

i think its a 64bit problem, which only occurs if you use static libs (like me in this release). i will try to look for a solution, but i can't test it by miself ): - May 14 2009

>>CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
>>Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:
>>X11_PATH
>>XEXT_PATH

i created these variables to look for installed libraries. you need libXext and libXext-devel. Also you need libX11 and the devel packet. - May 14 2009

oh you are right! my goal was to exclude backend library-installation. on my system it worked (but shouldn't, because the library gets build as a shared one). so i created a second bugfix release with static linked libraries. only the kde-plugins (*.so) get installed now and the backends are now static linked. - May 14 2009

Plasma 4 Extensions by dgrat87 33 comments

already fixed, i will post new release soon. but no new features yet.
there were some problems:
-i have found a bug in cmake 2.6.2...
-i corrected some cmakelists
-i corrected your problems with infomanager

i wrote an install script and you need to have (cause of the bug) cmake 2.6.4

hmm, i am not the developer of the backend-lib. i was only on triing to write a better interface.
but my hd crashed one or two weeks ago and so i wasn't able to continue. at the moment i have some things to do, but i try to fix cmake-probs first. - May 02 2009
i am writing on this theme, but it will take a while. progress bar is working at the moment^^

someone wrote a svg-theme engine. so if there is an artist... someone could create a svg template for this theme engine... - Apr 11 2009
writing qt/kde-styles is very hard. you have to reimplement all widget paintings (in code). the most programmers who have time and skills can't to these kind of job because they of the ability to recreate these drawings.... because this mockups have more then simple gradients (gradients are hard to copy from pictures), they have glossy effects etc too... .
i looked into skulpture-theme and this theme impl. alone has more then 10k lines of code^^ very hard job... - Apr 11 2009
