I just downloaded and installed kde-cvs-bin. However, now I can not start kde. After reboot, I directly goto kdm but now it just gives the nvidia logo screen me 3/4 times and then dies.

I manually started kdm from /usr/kde/3.1/bin/kdm and got the login screen. If I select kde 3.1.3 it works fine. However, if I select kde 5, it gives me error

I installed it again on my laptop and the same thing happening again.

How uptodate is your system? Specifically Glibc? That could be the problem. try starting the cvs version of kdm manually. What errors does it produce?

Hey iamlarryboy,

Thanks for the binary kde cvs ebuilds! I've been looking to try cvs for quite some time, and with these binary builds I don't have any excuse not to try it.

If the binaries work well, I'll compile the beast.

I'll let you know how it goes.

I got it working emerging qt-5

I was just wondering is it just me..., but I seem to have a window open saying kwin that doesnt close... I wonder why kwin isnt just running in the background..

Thanks again for the builds. By the way this site ... http://opendoorsoftware.com/cgi/http.pl?p=kdecvs provides kde-cvs builds in .deb format... I wonder if to save time and bandwith for you.. if it would be possible just to extract the /.tbz2 for his debs.. he also provide koffice cvs builds in .deb so thats pretty cool

I never could get dpkg working in gentoo

I got it to close by unmerging and re installing

probably because I had already installed before installing qt

***WARNING***
These builds may break stuff. Specifically konqueror does not seem to be working correctly. Procede at your own risk!
***WARNING***

Hey everyone. New builds are out. As usual you can grab them from here. They feature:
A brand new build
A new use flag (ssl)
QT is now included
And best of all a new install script (thanks to ForumSlacker)

Check it out. It's so easy there is no reason not to try KDE-CVS.

oops sorry this post was a dupe

Hi @ll

your cvs stuff works really fine but i have a "feature request"

Is it possible that you create kde-i18n binarys for some languages like german,france etc ?

I tried to download and install the german i18n-de from cvs server but no luck. Kde didn`t find the german language (and yes i set all prefixes). By the way i used the Ebuilds from this site http://dev.gentoo.org/~caleb/kde-cvs.html .

greetings
Spock

EDIT: The Konqueror is broken.It won`t show the pics on websites. (Maybe your binary`s are not ok ?) Here are 3 samples.

Whoo new version! :lol:

Time to try it out. I'm curious to see if I have the same problem with konqueror. I'll let you know.

EDIT
I seem to be having some problems grabbing the files.

FormerSlacker · Posted: Wed Aug 20, 2003 8:14 pm Post subject:

I've got the same problem with konqueror not loading images in webpages. Strangely enough it loads thumbnails when browsing directories. I've tried replaceing konqeror, khtmlimage.so & khtmlimage.la but it's still a no go.

They don't call it CVS for nothing :lol:

I have done a bit of looking and it does not apear the problems with konqueror are due to my builds (I could be wrong however). Anyway, this is the biggest problem I have had wit kde-cvs yet. I'll release a new build as soon as it is fixed.

sorry for not responding earlier. got stuck with problems at work.
I just installed the latest bin file on my laptop and every thing seems to work fine. I'll try to install it on my desktop later tonight.

However, I found the same problem with konqueror. It's not displaying images. Also KMail is no more working with ssl pop3 accounts ( gives something like a bad protocol).

Apart from that every thing is just great. Thanks a lot for the ebuilds.

It looks so that QT is the "konqueror problem". I fetched and build qt again from scratch. After that all problems are gone. If someone has some time please try that too....

cheers
