Here are some basic instructions on how to use this patch (or patch anything from source):
0) Since you're using apt to get the source for these packages, might as well switch the session to root by running 'sudo -s -H' for these steps. 1) Use 'apt-get source <package name>' to download the source for kmilo (in this case, it's under kde-utils) 2) You can also use 'apt-get builddep <package name>' to get the build dependencies for the package, but sometimes it doesn't get everything. You'll find out in "Step 5" what it missed when './configure' fails because it's missing a package name. 3) Extract the source (it should have been downloaded to your home directory). 4) Download the above .patch file to the ./kmilo directory and run 'patch -p1 < kmilofix.patch' in the same directory. 5) Run './configure'. You may need to specify where the X libraries are with a switch; they are in /usr/lib, but I can't remember what the exact syntax of the command is (doing this off the top of my head right now) but it should looke like './configure --use-libs=/usr/lib'. 6) After all the build dependencies have been met and the build autoconfigured, run 'make' and 'make install' 7) Reboot and post your results :) Side note: Here is a patch to get the slimmer dialog for volume control back: http://downloads.guillermoamaral.com/linux/kde/kmilo/3.5.5 -defaultwidget-compact.patch -- KMilo/Volume Hotkeys regression https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/118723 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a bug assignee. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
