Bug#674446: dolphin: Application starting very long time.
David, do you have your Linux partition aligned to a 4kb sector on your SSD? This might be the case as well (I have had to do it on my HDD). On 4 August 2012 06:09, David Smith sidic...@gmail.com wrote: Yes, I'm also having this problem... Dolphin sometimes takes 2+ minutes to open on a Sandy Brige quad-core CPU with Intel SSD (no swap partition). Some applications such as kwrite also takes 2+ minutes to open.. All other apps open instantly, including LibreOffice. On my 6+ year old laptop, both these applications (Dolphin and Kwrite) open within a few seconds so the problem is a strange one indeed.. As the software between the two PCs is identical as far as I can tell. It *MIGHT* have something to do with NTFS partitions on the local machine. That's my only guess.. Or the fact that there is no swap partition on that PC. Does anybody else have NTFS partitions on the local machine and finding that Dolphin or kwrite takes several minutes to open every time? Or somebody who don't have swap partitions finding it takes minutes to open dolphin or kwrite? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-qt-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#674446: Bug confirmed
Hi, I can confirm that I am affected by this bug as well. Dolphin seems to read a lot of stuff from the hard drive at the start and the UI gets locked for a long time (15s in my case). It only occurs during the first time I open it after starting the computer. Regards, Grzegorz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-qt-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Hi, What is the best way to downgrade cairo? I can't see a single cairo package and the old version doesn't seem to be in the repos any way...

Re: Re: NVidia drivers in KDE
Hi, Marco, I did the change, but I haven't observed any difference... Marek, I can confirm that it does work for Chrome but it breaks Iceweasel (the performance drops in a very similar level to Chrome at different settings) Do you know if all nVidia cards have these issues? I was planning to upgrade, but the situation makes me wonder if it is worth sticking with nVidia...

NVidia drivers in KDE
Hi, Recently my home PC (running an up-to-date Debian Testing) got slower and slower. As usual, I suspect the nVidia drivers. Probably the single worst performer is Google Chrome (installed from Google repository), where changing tabs takes about 2 seconds. Does anyone have similar issues? What would be a workaround to fix them? My laptop with Intel graphics works perfectly fine.

Bug#662049: phonon: There is no sound at all - audio device is greyed out in configuration
Yes, they seem to run as two different users as you suggested: ga@grzes:~$ ps -lA | grep pulse 1 S 115 2492 1 0 80 0 - 25937 ? ?00:00:02 pulseaudio 1 S 1000 2636 1 0 69 -11 - 24618 - ?00:00:00 pulseaudio user 115 seems to be speech-dispatcher (what is this???) and 1000 is my account. after killing these two, the new process runs as me: grzes:/home/ga# killall pulseaudio grzes:/home/ga# ps -lA | grep pulse 1 S 1000 3145 1 0 69 -11 - 26414 - ?00:00:00 pulseaudio (and the sound works). So what is this speech-dispatcher? Why is it running a dogdy instance of pulseaudio?

Do you have pulseaudio installed? Yes: grzes:/home/ga# aptitude versions pulseaudio p A 0.9.21-3+squeeze1 stable 600 i A 1.1-3 testing,unstable 700 If so, is there any 'pulse*' process running? 2126 ?00:00:11 pulseaudio 2718 ?00:00:00 pulseaudio How about making a new user and logging in it to see if sound works?

I am not sure if there was a kernel upgrade, but I tried the previous kernel as well, so I think it is not related... -- To unsubscribe, send mail to 662049-unsubscr...@bugs.debian.org. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-qt-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Keyboard layouts
Hi, Where does KDE look for keyboard layouts? I am trying to create a new layout using this document as a base: http://hektor.umcs.lublin.pl/~mikosmul/computing/articles/custom-keyboard-layouts-xkb.html but in this folder: /usr/share/X11/xkb. In particular I created a new file in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols and added a new entry to /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/base.lst and /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/base.xml. However, I can't see any new keyboard layout in the configuration center. Cheers, Grzes -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
