Hello, I'm the maintainer of http://mypage.bluewin.ch/kde3-debian/.

Need advice for mixed Woody/Sid system
Hi, as I have mentioned a couple of times on the list I'm using a mixed Woody/Sid system, and I don't think I'm the only one here. One of the main reasons for going for such a mixed system was to get an up-to-date KDE when no such Woody packages were available. Now that the gcc-3.2 transition is going on I seem to be trapped a little. I'm currently using Ralf's Woody packages without (m)any problems. But as indicated by Ralf in another message in this list this might not hold anymore after the next apt-get upgrade: Yes, you're using unstable. X has been rebuild, Qt didn't yet and if it does things get even more complicated. It's surely due to the gcc-3.2 transition. I am using X from unstable and apt-get wants to upgrade it. Even some KDE stuff wants to get an upgrade. What shall I do? In order to get a comfortable upgrade I would have to upgrade all this stuff. Will this break my KDE installation? Should I pin some packages? (How?) Should I simply wait? Any advice? Thanks, Felix

Re: Need advice for mixed Woody/Sid system
Hi, I would like to add some more questions to this... I'm also running a sid system, which I've installed shortly before the whole gcc 3.2 transition began. Since the transition started, however, I did not dare to run an update on my system fearing that it might end in all sorts of unmet dependencies and generally leave my system unusable/unfixable. So my questions would be: How long is the transition likely to take? Is it safe to run apt-get before everything is converted? (Sorry if this is sort of off topic...) Finally, I'm a bit new to this group, and I noticed most people use Ralfs or Karolinas packages. Any practical difference between them? Many thanks for your help in advance! best regards, Balazs

Basically the system seems fine and KDE seems duly wonderful (my first sight of anything beyond 2.2.2 :). The only issue of any kind I've yet noticed is that the screensaver collection seems in some disarray. Approx 160 screensavers (!) are listed in the control panel - most appear to do nothing (preview is blank, the Setup button just gives No configuration available for xxx, and Test does nothing). There are some apparent duplicates : That's probably because you installed xscreensaver, not xscreensaver-nognome Well thanks for the suggestion, but I checked and I don't have either of those packages installed. I've attached a zipped up copy of the entire list for this machine. It doesn't have much installed: just a base Woody, kde, koffice, kdevelop, quanta - and for Xfree 4.1.0 I only really installed the base packages. [I only have a generic ATI xserver installed so I guess that's why the pretty GL screensavers are slow - does anyone know which xserver is good for giving OpenGL with an ATI Rage Pro ?] I tried switching to the Mach64 Xserver from Xfree 3.3.6, which I thought might make the GL screensavers all work better but instead even those which had worked slowly ceased to work at all. I found this comment at http://www.xfree86.org/4.1.0/DRI10.html, which I suppose may explain the slow GL savers : === cut 10.4. ATI Rage 128 10.4.3. Performance and Features While PCI Rage 128 based cards are supported, they do not yet support PCI GART, so they will not perform as well as their AGP counterparts. For AGP cards, the AGP mode may be set to 1, 2, or 4. One is used by default. Higher AGP speeds may result in unreliable performance depending on your motherboard. Note that even at 32bpp there is no alpha channel. The following OpenGL features are implemented in software and will be slow: Stencil buffer and accumulation buffer operations Blend subtract, min/max and logic op blend modes GL_SEPARATE_SPECULAR_COLOR lighting mode glDrawBuffer(GL_FRONT_AND_BACK) Using 1D or 3D textures Using texture borders === cut Oh well.
