Version: 4.1.85 (using Devel) OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled sources Rightclick on Desktop -> Appearance Settings -> Get new Wallpapers You can see pictures from the online site, you can click "Install", something seems happen, and it gets remembered what has been installed so you can "Deinstall" it later (button text and icon changed). But the whole feature is completely pointless because the installed wallpaper does not appear anywhere so you can actually as a wallpaper what you previously installed...
Additional comment: after playing some more with it and trying lots of images, they suddenly appeard in the dropdown list so the problem seems not 100% reproducable. :-/
I've just downloaded and installed a wallpaper 2hours ago , it was listed in the wallpapers-combobox (?) using: Qt: 4.4.3 KDE: 4.1.85 (KDE 4.1.85 (KDE 4.2 Beta2)) kdelibs svn rev. 898705 / kdebase svn rev. 898705 on ArchLinux x86_64 - 2.6.27.8
can't reproduce. can you tell us what specific wallpaper triggers this?
yeah, works ok also here, if nobody can reproduce with trunk going to mark as fixed in trunk
Works for me too now. I cannot find a way to reproduce this anymore. Sorry :-/
Works for me too.
Hello, I just discovered this behavior again: Can anybody confirm if trying like this? -> Select most downloaded images -> Install "Tuxwin" -> Press close Try to choose this: its not there!
Works very well here. Only strange thing is that the tuxwin wallpaper changed name after downloading, it is now 3270-k-drop. Perhaps this was your problem?
@Mark, @Beat: which revisions/versions are you exactly using?
Latest trunk. As i sad, works good here, it's just that sometimes the name of the wallpaper shown in hotnewstuff is not the same as the one that is shown in the wallpaper selectionbox
@FiNex: I tried with beta2 (4.1.85) first (german locale settings). And now I tested too with a different user using a nightly build (svn899133) -> same issuse, tuxwin does not appear. @Beat Wolf: No, the image is definitly not there. And I noticed too, that the image names often change for images that do work.
I confirm the bug anyway, but it seems related to the specific wallpaper, other wallpapers works fine.
confirming that it works for others
seems to appear to all compressed images ( tgs, tar.bz2, ... )
Here using: Qt: 4.5.0 + qt-copy-patches-936035 KDE: 4.2.70 (KDE 4.2.70 (KDE 4.3 >= 20090415)) kdelibs svn rev. 958964 / kdebase svn rev. 958965 on ArchLinux i686 - Kernel 2.6.29.1 Installing the "TuxWin" wallpaper works (progress bar goes, and the Install button changes to Uninstall), but the wallpaper is not listed in the Wallpaper comobobox Should this be addressed on KGHNS(@kdelibs) or Plasma itself?
This is still a valid bug in 4.3.2. I could reproduce it with the tuxwin wallpaper
i can reproduce this with the tuxwin wallpaper in 4.4 beta2. I think it's a bug that is specific to the tuxwin wallpaper
Just wanted to confirm that the bug still exists in 4.3.85 (as in #17) at least with the "Tuxwin" wallpaper. (Please do not test with the "tuxwin ... suse ..." wallpaper, this works fine here)
seems to work ok here in kde 4.4 Can someone confirm ?
Confirmed!
