[kde] Someone tested the caching of config.

2015-01-29 Thread Stef Bon

Hi,

I'm curious whether caching of the configuration of the kde desktop will 
improve the performance, especially

when a session starts.

GNOME has dconf/gconf. I do not know much about these, but accoriding to 
me this is a sollution to cache the configuration parameters of various 
applications.


Anybody an idea or tested this?

[kde] Suggestion for backup.

2014-10-22 Thread Stef Bon

Hi,

I've been working on a backup sollution for some time.
It works like:

- when rightclicking on a directory or a file, there is an action "Backup".

When it's the first time the entry is being backupped, a window appears 
with options on when to backup,

and a question to backup now.

When not the first time:
- when the entry is a file, a window appears with all previous versions 
of the file.
- when the entry is a directory, a window appears with the contents of 
this directory with entries which are backupped before.


To keep track of every item being backuped I use a mysql database.

So far so good. But I'm looking for a sollution to do the actual backup. 
I've been thinking about something like:


rsync --some-sane-options --files-from=$FILEWITHFILESTOBACKUP 
--out-format="%i|%n\" "/" $BACKUP_MAP > $RSYNC_OUTPUT


where:

FILEWITHFILESTOBACKUP contains the full path of entries to backup 
(coming from the mysql database)

BACKUP_MAP is a btrfs filesystem
RSYNC_OUTPUT is a file containing the output of rsync, with a summary of 
changes


if RSYNC_OUTPUT contains changes, a snapshot is made like:

btrfs subvolume snapshot "$BACKUP_MAP" "$SNAPSHOT_MAP/$DATE_FORMAT"

and for every entry a new record is created in the mysql db.

This construction uses rsync and btrfs. See:

http://lwn.net/Articles/579009/


I'm looking for some suggestions:

- I'm looking for a sollution for a backupserver clients can connect to 
an provide info about files to backup.
This server should run as root (root has read access to everything, and 
btrfs requires root to run)

Is listning to dbus a good sollution, or a "simple" socket good enough?

- it would be (I think) a very cool feature when rightclicking on a 
file, and selecting Actions/Backup in Dolphin,
every version is shown below the file, of course in a different format 
than the normal entries, in stead of a different application

is started showing this versions. What do you think?

[kde] Bug building KF5: kde-workspace cannot find header.

2014-03-17 Thread Stef Bon

Hi,

I´v build KF5 using:

http://community.kde.org/Frameworks/Building

This worked very good, but now I get an error building kde-workspace, 
saying it cannot find the headers of libdbusmenu. It looked for 
dbusmenuexporter.h, but this header is in a subdirectory dbusmenu-qt, 
and that subdirectory is not included.


I´m suprised since this header is installed by kdesrc-build self.

Re: [kde] why not GVFS like in KDE?

Hello to community,

The Dolphin working mode is too old i'm sorry.


Hi,

I´ve been working on fuse-workspace, which is a fuse filesystem, which 
offers the same functionality as

gvfs.

It´s able to access the windows neighbourhood using libsmbclient, and 
the shares by mounting using cifs (the kernel filesystem) or by using 
libsmbclient again.


I havent been working on it for some time, I have been working on an 
implementation of  a skiplist to store directories, on another project, 
notifyfs.


It has the ability to mount at:

See:

github.com/stefbon/fuse-workspace





I think kde is targeting it too in the social function and home user 
experience forgoting the enterprise user, that was ruffled by gnome 
2.32 death.
I'm imaging kde take the chance to obfuscate gnome in enterprise 
environment giving news but remaining with the most used desktop ideas.
For my experience GVFS is fundamental up to must me to choise gnome 
based alternative like Mate, Unity, Cinnamon or XFCE.


You what think about this questione?

No,

it's just possible using the display settings in the settings. Select
Display and Monitor, select
Multiple Monitors, and there you are.

It works very good.
