Description Christophe Marin 2008-04-07 16:27:44 UTC
Version:           0.50.50 (using 4.00.68 (KDE 4.0.68 >= 20080402), compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.24-15-generic

Kopete is built from trunk. My current kdenetwork rev. is 794395.

This is a list of unsaved settings in kopete (i.e. if I close then re-open the options, settings are back to their default values) or unavailable ones :

- Video tab : 
  * The video standard always resets to "PAL-B1" value (using a bt848 card)
  * The boxes checked on the Options tab are not saved
  * Sliders on the control tab are not saved

- Contact list : 
  * Advanced tab : The timer before hiding the scrollbar is greyed.

- MSN account settings :
  * The last checkbox is greyed (it wasn't in kde 4.0.0)
  * Connection tab, none of these settings are saved.

Note : Why is incoming webcam port depending on the server address/port ?

- ICQ account settings :
  * "Override server informations" is automatically reverted

- Yahoo account settings : 
  * "Do not use the default server" box is always unchecked when opening options.

Regard ICQ account settings :
  * "Override server informations" is automatically reverted 

That does only happen if I don't change the default settings, otherwise it is remembered.

I can confirm it for kopete 0.50.1 (although i did not test all the settings).
Comment 4 Matt Rogers 2009-03-29 03:30:38 UTC
Is this still an issue for later releases?
Comment 5 Christophe Marin 2009-03-29 18:55:16 UTC
> Is this still an issue for later releases?

These points are still valid: 
  * The video standard always resets to "PAL-B1" value (using a bt848 card)
  * The boxes checked on the Options tab are not saved
  * Sliders on the control tab are not saved

  * MSN config / Connection tab, none of these settings are saved.

  * ICQ config / "Override server informations" is automatically reverted

  + "Require authorization before someone can add me..." looks broken (I still see some spam bots adding my uin).

  * Yahoo config / "Do not use the default server" box is always unchecked when opening options.

Update:

This points is still valid (but could be reported as a new bug if none already exists)

  + "Require authorization before someone can add me..." looks broken (I still
see some spam bots adding my uin).
