A new development: today I installed Kubuntu 17.04 from scratch on a new
laptop. The pointer behaves normally.

I use dual screen quite often but not always. This behavior is the same
for a single and a double screen. This is why I was reluctant to try
nouveau, which used to have a lot of issues with that configuration. So
far it works fine.

That other bug might be related; also, judging by the screenshot, they
are using Gnome.

2017-05-05 Thread Jacob Greenstein
Merci beaucoup de votre soutien; comme vous pouvez le constater, je n'ai
pas répondu à deuxième message, pour terminer cette discussion inutile.

What I cannot figure out is whether it is a problem of the driver or
Nvidia OpenGL libraries. As far as I remember, installing the driver
forces the libraries to be installed. It would be interesting to try
installing just the driver (but not the libraries, if that is possible)
and to check whether the problem persists.

Perhaps we should file a bug with nvidia: it is possible that
developers/packagers of plasma did not notice this bug or weren't able
to reproduce it since they do not use Nvidia driver.

You should realize that this is not some sort of a help desk but a
community where everyone is trying to help everyone by providing
information about their issues. I "own" this bug because I reported it,
but I am not a developer of the package involved.

In my first post I mentioned that this issue might be related with
Nvidia proprietary driver; it often happens when KDE is upgraded that
some issues arise because Nvidia maintainers do not keep up with the
advancement of KDE/plasma. The open source driver (nouveau) has a lot of
issues itself and I was reluctant to try it again; I did try it though
after someone wrote that they got around this issue by switching to
nouveau, and it worked for me. So, if you have an Nvidia card and are
using the proprietary driver, you may try nouveau instead. If not, you
will do everyone a service if you run ubuntu-bug on your system and
submit the information it collects.

[Bug 1684240] [NEW] Mouse pointer behaves strangely

2017-04-19 Thread Jacob Greenstein
Public bug reported:

(This can also be an nvidia related problem)

Mouse pointer behaves as if it has an invisible square attached to it.
This square covers some area next to the pointer, but it is not always
clear exactly where (a link to a screenshot is shown below, please note
the white square with some text from the previous webpage displayed in
that window).

This makes selecting text difficult, as one never knows where exactly
the selection ends. Also, scrolling in some windows becomes problematic,
as the pointer shadows a part of the scrollbar. When a text is being
typed, one needs to make sure that the pointer is parked sufficiently
far from the text (so, to make a long story short, this is very
annoying).

This behavior does not depend on the choice of the cursor theme.

[Bug 1684236] [NEW] kile cannot find okularpart library

2017-04-19 Thread Jacob Greenstein
Public bug reported:

After the system was upgraded to Kubuntu 17.04, kile can no longer find
the okularpart library (it used to be in /usr/lib/kde4 and now it is in
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/). Without this library the
embedded viewer is not working.

I tried installing kile from ppa:clivejo/kile; this version finds the
okularpart library but ForwardPDF is still not working as an embedded
viewer (the address of the string in the file appears as file:file://
xxx).

I installed it about an hour ago (needless to say, there is no package
for Fedora yet). Akonadi started seamlessly after a reboot.

I have the same problem on Fedora 20 (KDE 4.11.4), and had it on Fedora
19 for about a month. The only way to get akonadi work again is to
remove all its config files, kill all akonadi-related processes and
restart it.
