Problems with 3.5.8 fc8 x86_64

Hey Everyone.
I've been working with 3.5.8 on fc8 x86_64 and have run into serveral
problems
that I have been unable to resolve.
FIRST
---------
When I log off a session I get the following
startkde: Shutting down...
klauncher: Exiting on signal 1
process 7466: arguments to dbus_message_new_method_call() were incorrect,
assertion "_dbus_check_is_valid_path (path)" failed in file dbus-message.c
line 1074.
This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.
D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace
Last DCOP call before KDED crash was from application 'DCOPServer'
to object '', function 'applicationRemoved(QCString)'.
KCrash: Application 'kded' crashing...
Warning: connect() failed: : No such file or directory
KCrash cannot reach kdeinit, launching directly.
startkde: Running shutdown scripts...
startkde: Done.
waiting for X server to shut down
Hi,

It looks like this problem is a kde 3.5.8 issue. I'm using fc7 and have the
same problem.

At the novell bug-list I found the following bug-message. It looks very
similar to the one described by Eli. The problem seems to be related to
unmounting nfs shares. I'm using nfs shares. The description of the 'bug' can
be found at:

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=336627#c332102

In response to the bug a patch was published here:

https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=181262

I haven't yet tried the patch, but I'll let you know if it fixes our problem.

bye,

Martin

Looks like it's been upstreamed, so if it'll help folks, I can
incorporate the patch into the next interation of packages.

OK. That sounds like thats it. I also am using nfs shares.

I will try to apply the patch this evening. I could then try it. What package
is halbackend.cpp sitting in?

Oh.. by the way, I can't remember if I mentioned. On my third desktop running
inside a virtual machine commenting out the fontpath line from xorg.conf
fixed the issue I was having with rhgb.

Today I applied the patch without any success ;-(
When ending a KDE session both 'X' and 'startkde' became 'Zombies'. In order
to get X and KDE alive again, I had to kill gdm (or reboot).

Further I found that under 'Konqueror -> Services -> Storage media' the
mounted NFS shares have the normal user as Owner and Group instead of root
(who only - in my case - can mount the shares). This seems to me not good?

When I try to look at the properties of a NFS share, KDED dies...

So the problem still exist, at least for me. Maybe Eli has more success.

OK... I applied the patch I had to modify it so that the correct the path to
halfbackend.cpp and the spec file as well. After a quick 2 log outs there was
no kded crash.

Seems to be OK.

Rex... One other thing. After I upgraded to the latest flash player. For some
reason konqueror won't play them anymore.

Could you reapply kdebase-3.4.2-npapi-64bit-fixes.patch please please
please. :).

Thanks

Eli

there was an update from rpmforge for the flash-plugin
(9.0.115.0-1.el5.rf) this night. Since that, flash player stops
working under konqueror (2.6.18-53.1.4.el5 (i386), kde 3.5.8). Also
konqueror crashes under several internet pages. I could not get an
exact error message, but I thought that nspluginviewer causes the
crashes.

Rex, should I go back to the previous version of the flash-plugin?
Thank's a lot.

Olaf

If you want flash/konq, to work, yes, you'll need to downgrade. Newer
flash-plugins use/need XEmbed support, which konq currently lacks. See

Rex?... I'm not really expecting an answer, but... Any guestimate availble
when XEmbed support will be available. This is a real bummer.

No, but keep on eye on the upstream/kde bug report references. When/if
anything happens, it'll be tracked there.

incorporate that as well.

SVN commit 750897 by lunakl:

Support for XEmbed-based plugins and Glib2-based eventloop.
Should make the most recent Flash work, if you get sufficiently lucky
and don't run into any of the load of its bugs. Latest
kdelibs/kdeui/qxembed.* needed as well.
CCBUG: 132138

Looks like they fixed things. Any time frame regarding when we'll see the new
build. Oh... and please don't forget the kded patch if its possible to
incorporate that as well.
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=132138
We've got a slightly earlier version of those already available in
updates-testing:

F-7: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F7/FEDORA-2007-4602
F-8: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F8/FEDORA-2007-4633

See also blog about our speedy response:
http://liquidat.wordpress.com/2007/12/20/howto-using-newest-flash-in-konqueror-in-fedora/
:)

The kded thing will have to wait, we (ok, I) haven't had any spare time
to review that yet. If you don't want to wait until kde-3.5.9, please
submit that to bugzilla.redhat.com so someone else from the team can
have a chance to look at it.

Sure, I was only waiting for a wee bit more feedback, before committing
to more builds.

Thank you very much, Rex. The new packages for kdebase and kdelibs
works fine for me on centos 5. During the course of the day I will
also install them under centos 4.

Just a heads-up, upstream is still (re)working these patches, so we'll
probably be putting out a newer update when/if those get finalized.

Sorry Rex. I didn't see this so forgive my last post regarding this bug.

I will post to bugzilla, after I get some sleep.

That being said, either I'm doing something wrong or missing something. I've
just installed

F-8: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F8/FEDORA-2007-4633

The lastest flash and nspluginwrapper. And still no joy in Konqueror. And
Firefox duds out on me. What I mean by that is (ie www.2advanced.com). With
Firefox, nspluginwrapper packaged at fedora. The site starts to come up and
then goes blank. With Konqueror. It just comes up black and that's it.

With the nspluginwrapper packaged at the developers site at

http://gwenole.beauchesne.info/projects/nspluginwrapper/

At least the new Flash plugin works OK in Firefox. But in Konqueror, the site
still comes up black. As a matter of fact, in Konqueror I get no Flash at
all. Its listed in the plugins tab in the plugins window in Configure
Konqueror.


So, am I missing something, or am I doing something wrong.

Indeed, since my last post and checking the links Eli posted there is still a problem with Konq (I don't run Fedora's Firefox but Firefox-3.0b2) and all is well with that) however you may find this blog interesting on the KDE Developer's Journals site.

Shouldn't all this be handled by nspluginviewer?

What I mean to say, is that if the plugin works in Firefox then it sounds to
me that nspluginviewer doesn't conform 100% to nsplugins (I know Konqueror
isn't Firefox). However, since firefox is opensource, shouldn't KDE be able
to use the plugin code and incorporate it into Konqueror. Why do developers
constantly think that they need to reinvent the wheel? Its not like Firefox
is gonna go priopritory anytime soon.
