*** Bug 138461 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 138460 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Could you please attach a copy of your KAlarm config file ($KDEHOME/share/config/kalarmrc) when in "run continuously" mode (i.e. before you try to change to "run on demand"). [EditDialog] Height 1024=655 Width 1280=849 [MainWindow] Height 1024=270 Width 1280=518 [Notification Messages] ConfirmAlarmDeletion=true EmailQueuedNotify=false QuitWarn= The contents of kalarmrc don't seem possible for the KDE 3.5.5 version of kalarm. There must at least be the following lines in addition: [General] Version=1.4.6 Even if you only run it once and immediately try to change the run mode setting, these lines are added to kalarmrc. Are you sure you have quoted the contents fully? Please report the version of kalarm as opposed to the version of KDE. Type in a terminal window: kalarm --version I created a new user, started KDE and this is the kalarmrc after the first start: [MainWindow] Height 1024=240 Width 1280=478 [Notification Messages] ConfirmAlarmDeletion=true EmailQueuedNotify=false QuitWarn= Then i tried to change the settings as described, wich results in this kalarmrc: [Defaults] DefAutoClose=false DefCmdLogType=0 DefCmdScript=false DefConfirmAck=false DefCopyKOrg=false DefEmailBcc=false DefLateCancel=0 DefLogFile= DefPostAction= DefPreAction= DefRecurPeriod=0 DefRemindUnits=0 DefSound=false DefSoundFile= DefSoundRepeat=false DefSoundType=1 DefSoundVolume=-1 Feb29Recur=Mar1 [General] AutostartTray=true CmdXTerm= DaemonTrayCheckInterval=10 DisableAlarmsIfStopped=true DisabledColour=192,192,192 EmailBccAddress=@ControlCenter EmailClient=kmail EmailCopyToKMail=false EmailFrom=@KMail ExpiredColour=128,0,0 ExpiredKeepDays=7 MessageBackgroundColour=255,0,0 MessageButtonDelay=0 MessageColours=#ff0000,#00ff00,#0000ff,#00ffff,#ff00ff,#ffff00,#ffffff,#c0c0c0,#000000 MessageFont=Sans,16,-1,5,75,0,0,0,0,0 ModalMessages=true RunInSystemTray=true ShowAlarmTime=true ShowExpiredAlarms=false ShowTimeToAlarm=false ShowTooltipAlarmTime=true ShowTooltipTimeToAlarm=true StartOfDay=1900,1,1,0,0,0 TooltipAlarmCount=5 TooltipTimeToPrefix=+ Version=1.4.5 [MainWindow] Height 1024=240 Width 1280=478 [Notification Messages] ConfirmAlarmDeletion=true EmailQueuedNotify=false QuitWarn= Please report the version of kalarm as opposed to the version of KDE. Type in a terminal window: kalarm --version Qt: 3.3.7 KDE: 3.5.5-0.2.fc6 Fedora-Core KAlarm: 1.4.5 I think that I may have found what's causing the crash. Can you please try two experiments to check whether I'm on the right track? 1) Start KAlarm with a fresh kalarmrc, display the Preferences dialog and change the state of any preference other than the run mode one. Then click OK. I suspect it will probably crash in the same way - please let me know. 2) Start KAlarm with a fresh kalarmrc, display the Preferences dialog and select "Other" in the "Terminal for command alarms" group. Enter /usr/bin/xterm (or any other terminal program if you don't have xterm installed - e.g. konsole. Just ensure that you enter the full path.) Then change the run mode as you described. Click OK. Does the crash happen any more? 1) You are completely right: Every change of the settings causes a crash. 2) dito: /usr/bin/konsole does make it right Fixed for KDE 3.5.6. It will also appear in the next standalone version of KAlarm from http://www.astrojar.org.uk/linux/kalarm.html |
