Hi…..I should perhaps have asked the question: Has KMail been worked on in KDE4.8.3 so that it actually does work again ?

To be more precise, I found the process of setting up accounts to be overcomplex and extremely difficult to follow given there are now TWO apparent items in the incoming settings. As an example, setting the local domain is an absurdity and in the past it was automatically your own email address. And you have NO idea that setting this domain is now a crucial item for sending emails.

KWallet is an abomination. In the past, all I needed to do was say I didn’t want to use it, put in a password in the user account settings for inwards mail and that was that……So far, I can send a test email, but I cannot receive an email, and KWallet pops up again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again…….and seems to do nothing.

Please, please tell me KMail has been re-worked. This is not a “come-on”..I’m deadly serious. I have used KMail for the past 10 years – I love it; but I detest what it has now been formed into.

Kind regards

Please go back to a simple version of KMail for those who need it.

there would be great to got system recovery point, as it was started in windows 2000.
If the new brfts would be the solution? Why not as easy as in windows?

In terms of connectivity, it currently heavily depends on the hardware combination of phone and desktop/laptop. Often, things work reasonably well but there are combinations which don’t work yet. This heavily depends on the Linux Kernel hardware support and other than shipping the latest kernel there is not much we can do. Hardware vendors have to ensure their system is supported by Linux. Many do, some do not.

About Microsoft software, I recommend you install ‘wine’. Wine allows you to run a wide range of Windows software on Linux. See http://winehq.org for more information.

I have observed that there are some options which needs to be done in SUSE upcoming version…..if you thing those are possible…like

1-connectivity —SUSE should be able to connect any phone via cable /Bluetooth and after connect ,internet should work ..as i have face the problem after connecting my phone with SUSE.
2-open for Microsoft software’s …like if suppose we want to install any windows software than that should be install like windows …if you implement this option than it is sure that SUSE upcoming version could beat the Microsoft boundaries ……

I also have a script to fetch any kernel version, clear back to 2005 you can find below. If you find the latest version in kernel/head is not working, you can drop back to any version that has been released:

And here is one about Grub2, a new feature of openSUSE 12.2

And I have many other bash scripts you might find useful such as these for nVIDIA driver users:

Thank You,

Did the full x.organisations 7.7 (katamari) package make the cut?

What exactly is the difference between your method and using a kernel from
