Description o.smolarz 2009-09-17 08:37:03 UTC

Version:           4.0 (using 4.2.4 (KDE 4.2.4) "release 2", KDE:42 / openSUSE_11.1)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.27.29-0.1-pae

When I start Kphotoalbum new added folders and photos are not found and shown in the window.
No error massage is given.
A start of Kphotoalbum in a terminal gives no hint.

This might be about file associations handled by the OS. (I had similar problem with Ubuntu once.) Fix was to re-create that file association.

$ kcmshell4 filetypes

This should open a gui for creating the association (I run gnome so I do not have that on menu but can be started from command line easily)

Then select: image-jpeg
Check that *.jpeg and *.jpg are included in file name patterns.

With proper file associations the images should be found. Folders are only shown if there are images or videos in them.
