Description Salvatore Brigaglia 2008-11-12 23:37:30 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc (SUSE Linux) 4.3.1 20080507 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

At a certain point kopete stopped to show contact's name in the contact list. Avatars and status/service icons are fine, but even renaming (online) contacts with F2 doesn't make tem show.

i had buddies names back playing with antialiasing settings in the systemsetting's font module. Just toggle anti-alising off, clicked apply and names where in place. Now i can re-enable anti-aliasing witouth problems. very strange!

Playing around with antialiasing settings did not work out for me at all.

Now I did, still nothing.
Comment 8 Greg Varsanyi 2008-11-20 09:15:28 UTC
I see this became a "resolved" bug, but
1. it still won't work for me
2. even if antialias settings could do any good to it for some ppl, that's just not the way

so the bug is still very much there.

Should I reopen it to see this one is getting any love? or what to to do now?
Comment 9 Salvatore Brigaglia 2008-11-20 12:35:02 UTC
reopened. If you select a buddy and hit F2 can you rename it?

yes, renaming works meaning it effects chat window and user info bubble, etc.

process is: I hit F2, I get the nickname in an inputbox so I can edit, I hit enter, and it goes back to invisible (but saves the change).

Did you try to change contact list font/color in Kopete preference dialog?

yes, I tried, no success. 
In fact I tried to change each and every settings related to the contact list.

Could you try to run kopete as another user? Try as root from konsole or creating another user and joining to a new session.
Comment 16 Huynh Huu Long 2008-11-21 00:09:58 UTC
I can confirm this bug, it still exists in KDE 4.1.3 (Kubuntu 8.10)
Comment 17 Huynh Huu Long 2008-11-21 17:45:37 UTC
I found out that the names are not shown when emoticonsTheme in share/config/kdeglobals points to a non-existant emoticon theme, so setting a sane theme fix it.
Comment 18 Salvatore Brigaglia 2008-11-21 19:52:32 UTC
Yep i reproduced it:
1)selecting an emoticon theme "X" from kopetes configuration
2)closing kopete
3)deleting the X emoticon theme from ~/.kde4/share/emoticons
4)opening kopete and connecting

Contact's names are gone.
Comment 19 Greg Varsanyi 2008-11-24 09:00:32 UTC
I confirm, this was the problem: my emoticon theme was pointing to "Default" which did not exist.

I still think it is a bug, but a revision of the report may be necessary telling where the bug is.
Comment 20 Michal Witkowski 2008-12-17 19:54:02 UTC
I can confirm exactly the same behaviour using KDE 4.2beta2. After selecting a different emoticon pack, the names in the contacts list appeared again.
Comment 21 Rainer Kastl 2009-01-12 17:43:00 UTC
I can confirm this bug for KDE 4.2 RC1.

Version information:
Kopete
Version 0.60.82
Using KDE 4.1.96 (KDE 4.1.96 (KDE 4.2 RC1))
