I suggest elevating the severity to "Major" since I believe that a clock that doesn't tell time is usually considered non-functional...? Do you also see this bug when you enable the seconds hand of the clock? Does it update the time when you resize the widget? When I start KDE with the clock docked to the panel and have enabled "showing the seconds hand", then the time is updated correctly from the beginning. I haven't yet tried to resize the panel (and thereby the clock). I have extended the length of the panel by hand (which does not lead to a resizing of the clock) and the problem still remains. Also the problem is not deterministic. Sometimes the clock shows the time correctly, sometimes not. So it looks like a race condition when starting-up the panel. Fixed for 4.4.1 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 226969 *** |
Version: (using KDE 4.3.1) OS: Linux Installed from: Unlisted Binary Package I have the analog clock widget docked in the panel (showing only minutes). When I start KDE, the correct time is shown, but the time does not advance (i.e. gets not updated). Everything is okay after I have started the "Analog Clock Settings" dialog. I don't have to do anything here; just say ok. Then the analog clock updates correctly its time from now on. This bug is really annoying, as I rely on the time shown by the clock, and of course sometimes I forget to apply my workaround. Note that this bug was only introduced recently (I can't remember which version, but it was this summer and, I think, when 4.3.1 came out; but anyway after a somewhat major jump in versions) huba(hub):~ % kde4-config --version Qt: 4.5.2 KDE: 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1) "release 161" kde4-config: 1.0 Cheers, Hubert
