Get Edgy/Feisty debs here from gnomefreak: http://gnomefreak.youmortals.com/Edgy/

May Currently Be Broken
Please use this guide instead :) (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=554127)

sudo aptitude remove automake1.4
sudo aptitude install fakeroot automake1.9 build-essential libpango1.0-dev libgtk2.0-dev libgconf2-dev libglitz-glx-dev librsvg2-dev libglade2-dev libxcomposite-dev subversion libtool libgtop2-devcheckinstall isn't required... and is pretty nasty... I don't like it... but it "works"ish. Use "sudo make install" instead of "checkinstall" in this guide if you want :)

Get source:
mkdir kiba-dock
cd kiba-dock
svn co http://svn.kiba-dock.org/akamaru/ akamaru
svn co http://svn.kiba-dock.org/kibadock/ kibadock
svn co http://svn.kiba-dock.org/kibaplugins/ kibaplugins
svn co http://svn.kiba-dock.org/gsetkiba/ gsetkiba
Build each in turn:
(Don't forget to make the versions for each package something sensible instead of LOTS of 0.1s)
cd akamaru/
./autogen.sh
make
sudo checkinstall
cd ../kibadock/
./autogen.sh
make
sudo checkinstall
cd ../kibaplugins/
./autogen.sh
make
sudo checkinstall
cd ../gsetkiba/
./autogen.sh
make
sudo checkinstallbtw just use "kiba-dock" to run.

if you have this error:

kiba-dock: error while loading shared libraries: libakamaru.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

just do this:

sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libakamaru.so.0 /usr/lib/libakamaru.so.0

because Now if you try to run kiba-dock from the terminal, you will get another error about the file 'libakamaru.so.0'. This file was installed into /usr/local/lib instead of /usr/lib.

Thanks so much!

This worked perfectly.

I have attached an AMD_64 .deb as well.

I *think* you'll find the black backgrounds are due to not having compiz/xgl installed ... maybe :)

I thnk you're right, the problem must be xgl... must it be runnig for the kiba dock to work properly? I tried to install it but no way... BTW any suggestion how to install xgl/compiz on an ati ibm thinkpad t43p? What's the difference between compiz and beryl? It's a new fork but what are the differences/avantages/disavantages etc?

Hello,

I wanted to try kiba-dock, but it seems to need a lot of gnome libraries, isn't there a way to have a clean Kde system with this ?

Thanks.

this damn cool!! sincerly i'm love with linux!!! long life to open source!! when i showed this fx to my brother, a mac user, he said: "just a copy of mac fx." but i reply to him: "maybe, kind, but the code it's original!"

we know that even this is new for mac, but lets make them think that they have the lastest fx...

pd: i can't still believe that making a dv video rendering/codec/decodec on a mac, using final cut and as the codec mpeg4, takes a lot of time. and by a lot of time, i really mean a lot of time!!

Kiba Dock shows up in the applications browser, which is very nice. I even added it to USP, working great.

Was yours generated by checkinstall? It installed for me but didnt work correctly, kept crashing when i added icons. I tried the deb linked in the last post and it installed more dependencies (libglitz1) that were not installed with yours, after removing your deb and using that one it works just fine.

This is the default dock background. Go to your main menu, then select System Tools -> Configuration Editor.

In the editor, navigate to apps -> kiba -> options -> style.

Play here to change your settings.

Brian,

If you installed from CVS, then cd to your kiba folder ( ~/kiba-dock ) and run this in a terminal window:

gconftool-2 --install-schema-file=kiba.schemas

This will populate the configuration tree. If you installed from a deb, I don't know how to do it :-#

Drag some icons onto it from the menu :)

Did that, and all the icons show as the Firefox icon (the Ubuntu default icon). I installed on my machine at work (Dapper - the one with the problems is Edgy) at it worked fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Tom

Well, I installed it, tried it out for about half an hour, and even though I love the idea, it's gone now.

Reasons:
- I can't get the icons to be aligned as I want them to be
- For some reason, when I try to drag the icons to the place I want them to be, every single icon goes to the top-left corner of the screen
- If I hold my mouse over an icon for a few seconds without clicking and then take the mouse away again, every single icon bounces all over the screen

Too bad, hope it'll be better with the next release. Anyway, good job so far for making it, hope it'll get better :)

ayoli

October 12th, 2006, 10:44 AM

actually, to keep icons order it seems we have to st dock model to rope but, it works strange here. icons don't stay on the bar.
another thing that would be great to have is an arrow or something like that under icons of programs already opened, and something such a task-list ability (dock opened windows that have no icons set in the docker).
I see in the feature request for kiba thread on beryl forum that these features aren't coming soon, so i keep usin kxdocker for the moment.

Any chance you can offer some wisdom on my issue? All the icons default to whatever the first icon is that I drag there. When I hover over them, I can see the "correct" icon pulsing underneath, and I've tried using the icon editor (which displays the icons correctly in the preview).

I'm using 0.1-1.2 (the i386 deb from the beryl forums, but I had the same problem with the previous version as well).

It works fine on my work computer which runs Dapper rather than Edgy.

Thanks, Tom

Ok..anyone fancy shoving me in the right direction??

Got beryl running fine on edgy and have tried this "how to" but am a bit stuck after the download tar.bz2 part..
I`ve not had dealings with "tar.bz" type stuff yet so after downloading to desktop OR home and trying to run those commands im just getting told "no such file or directory" after the second command.

Ive tried extracting the stuff first too but just seem to be getting nowhere.
Everything went well till i got to that stage and realised i aint had to install this way before.........

Yes this is what happens when you get to used of "automatix and synaptic" but
if anyone would like to point out what im doing wrong OR not doing full stop i`d be ever so greatfull...

Got beryl working (mostly)so cheers for them how to`s anyway pricey.......

EDIT....typical.Just found the "deb" package which i know how to install so just need to suss out how to use it now :twisted:
Got some blue "roller" thing for my troubles...great:rolleyes: ...lol
cheers anyway...having fun figuring configuring

sussed it:mrgreen: .....now if i could only make it rain:-k

Has anyone managed to get the settings right so that in rope model the dock ALWAYS puts the icons down in one straight line. It only happens about 30% of the time for me after a reboot and I have to restart the dock (or change models) normally a couple of times before they are all straight!

Having said that, it does look really cool!

PriceChild out of interest are you maintaining your .deb for this? I.e. have you updated it to the very latest version (I think thats 0.113 or something like that?)

I'm pissed about that too. Beryl-project.org is down so I can't get the latest kiba-dock. I've done it before on a previous install when the site wasn't down but now I can't. Would be very thankful if someone uploaded their .deb that they got there. thanks!

Well i did what was written on the first page but when i type kiba-dock it gives a "command not found" error. So what's wrong with it, i'm using dapper also i don't have xgl on my computer. Could it be because of that?

Here's the message I get from terminal

got desktop file: x-nautilus-desktop:///CD-RW%2FDVD%2BRW%20Drive.volume
** Message: Cant handle Relative path
Use a programm for dragging wich sends a fullpath
xfce4-appfinder for example should work

Have Edgy with Beryl, but Beryl is not running....however this looks more like a gnome issue perhaps?

I get the same problem as other people, nothing is added to the bar when I drag it. I installed from the .deb, and it claims I had no dependency issues. I tried doing the make, but it wanted to downgrade one of my packages, so I decided against the compile.

Edit: Heres the message from terminal when I try to install the base packages

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libgl1-mesa-dev: Depends: mesa-common-dev (= 6.5.1~20060817-0ubuntu3) but 6.5.1+cvs20060824 is installed.
Resolving dependencies...
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

Downgrade the following packages:

Wonderful app!!! Fun, cool, usable ...

I got my "blacked out" problem fixed. I installed xcompmrg and then enable "Composite"

Section "Extensions"
# Option "Composite" "Disable"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection

to /etc/X11/xorg.conf

BUT now I have a different problem. Kiba-dock works well, but the apps come up without my color scheme ( WaSP 2.0 ). I.e. Evolution menu bars are fine but my panes and folders are basic black and white.
I've also noticed the "icon-editor", and "gset-kiba" have no real scheme/colors/theme.

My build is from the CVS.

Think I'll try the deb package.

Hi all,

I am having a problem with Kiba-dock.
I am on Kubuntu Edgy. I installed Beryl yesterday and it is working fine.
I installed Kiba-dock by downloading the source and ./configure make make install.
It did not work. I later installed the .deb package too.

There are 2 problems with my kiba-dock:

1. It gives funny message like :

X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 168
Major opcode: 145
Minor opcode: 3
Resource id: 0x0
Failed to open device
X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 168
Major opcode: 145
Minor opcode: 3
Resource id: 0x0
Failed to open device

2. The command kiba-dock does not give me anything.

<EDIT>
The solution to both problems is as folllows:

Solution to 1. The error messages are due to wacom devices in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Take a backup of your xorg.conf before editing and comment the following sections:

#Section "InputDevice"
# Driver "wacom"
# Identifier "stylus"
# option "Device" "/dev/wacom"# Change to
# option "Type" "stylus"
# option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY
# # /dev/input/event
# # for USB
#EndSection

#Section "InputDevice"
# Driver "wacom"
# Identifier "eraser"
# option "Device" "/dev/wacom"# Change to
# option "Type" "eraser"
# option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY
# # /dev/input/event
# # for USB
#EndSection

#Section "InputDevice"
# Driver "wacom"
# Identifier "cursor"
# option "Device" "/dev/wacom"# Change to
# option "Type" "cursor"
# option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY
# # /dev/input/event
# # for USB
#EndSection

and furher down in: Section "ServerLayout"

# InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"
# InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents"
# InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents"

Solution to 2. This may seem dumb, but all you have to do is run populate-dock.sh
</EDIT>

First off, thanks PriceChild for the great HowTo. .. My first CVS build I already feel like Mr smarty pants......
My question is rather simple and hopefully it has happened to some4one in here and I will get a simple solution. After adding icons to the dock, I get these Blue arrows [>>] in groups of 2-4 scattered on the screen pointing to the dock, to let me know I have added an icon i guess... problem is.. those arrows stay and they are on top of all windows...doesn't matter what I am doing.. I have the arrows covering part of my view... how can I take care of this?

I have installed Kiba-dock from source, seems to be working fine, except that I can only run it as root. When I run it as my user, nothing happens, but the process stays open. I'm running from terminal using 'kiba-dock' ('sudo kiba-dock' for root).

This wasn't an issue at first, except that any launcher I click from the dock runs as root b/c of that. Not cool! I configured and made ('./configure' & 'make') as my user... are there any ideas as to why I can only run it as root?

If anyone is still having problems with the odd blue background its rather a simple fix if you guys haven't figured it out yet... Sorry haven't gone through all the pages on this topic.

in terminal type gset-kiba

Then go to Color/Alpha

You can feel free to lower all of the settings to 0 if you want your dock to be totally transparent

Otherwise you can do what I did and switch anything that says Gnome-Dock in the Style/Misc. tab to Gradient... then mess around with the color settings just to have a nice tone in the background, and remove the border completely by setting it to 0.

If you are getting the black background, either install XGL (AIGLX does not seem to work for me when I tried to replicate that issue) or, if you prefer not to... try installing xcompmgr (another window manager) to sort out your issue.

sudo apt-get install xcompmgr

once installed

xcompmgr to start it up.

(xcompmgr fix is borrowed from http://www.macewan.org/2006/11/29/howto-fix-kiba-dock-black-background/)

Hope that Helps.

You will find two other packages in the ubuntu repositories that may work much more easily for you:

When I run: gconftool-2 --install-schema-file=kiba.schemas

It fails with:
I/O warning : failed to load external entity "kiba.schemas"
Failed to open `kiba.schemas': No such file or directory
For anyone still looking, the command to install the schemas from the source directory is make install-schemas Until I did this, none of the changes to the configuration of the dock took effect nor were saved after I restarted it.

I'm currently not using the dock, b/c it uses too many resources. What were the names of the alternatives to kiba-dock? something like kdocker.... or something like that. Anyone?

This was in the first post Blario!
Obviously! Where do you think I got it from?! Obviously ppl weren't seeing it because of all the problems they were having. Anyways, in case you can't tell, the howto wasn't complete from the start; Hence all the problems that everyone was having. The originally posted deb definitely doesn't work; Hence all the pleas for a working deb from the second forum admin that posted. It was an Amateur attempt. Of course there's nothing wrong with that, seeing that there was nothing like it before; someone has to do it; and at least it pointed people in the right direction :)

PriceChild, I had followed this howto to build kiba-dock from source and it was working great... as time went on, my system seemed to be lagging a lot, <top> shows a high percentage of cpu usage by x.org and kiba-dock. I was using xcomp as my conpositing engine.. not sure if anyone had faced this issue...also, even decreasing the hide area to a very low value o autohide didn't help as the dock keeps on popping out when my cursor is miles away from the dock area... this was verry annoying as you are trying to scroll down or do something else in an open window and kiba keeps on popping up

btw i dont actually use it like that...kiba dock doesny have any taskbar functionality so i just have it on the right side as an app launcher...still need kicker at the bottom of the screen for the taskbar and k-menu...

if there was a way to get the kmenu, and OS X style tasks (screenshots or even icons) on the dock id be happy :D

how do I get this dock to be a little more subtle? Because of its insane physics, the crazy thing bounces all around and won't even line up in a straight line; instead icons clog up and sit on top of each other; they're useless like that. So how can I get to be more subtle?

Also, can I control spacing between the icons? again due to the physics, they sometimes end up too close to each other.

Thanks.

Right click it and change the model type from rope to something else. say spring.

Everything can be customised on the right click menu if you find "gset-kiba"
I know, I've tried, I just can't get the damn thing to stay still! And I didn't see any spacing options in gset.

I did some searching and I've found the

error is due to me not having compiz installed. I wanted to use Beryl with Kiba-Dock ... is that possible?

edit: Ignore the above .. I've used this guide (http://knowledge76.com/index.php/XGL/Compiz_Nvidia_32bit) to install XGL (I have a NVIDIA card) and Compiz. After I finish this guide, I beleive I'll be able to install Kiba-Dock

Any other solution? I tried to install compiz and did not get it running, which is the reason why I take beryl in the first place. I don't want to install to many things which I don't need, especially with things which are in constant development.

Also, I thought that kiba was originally written for beryl. It is after all included in the beryl repositories, not in in the compiz... Or did I get that wrong?

edit: problem solved by reinstallin libxcomposite. No need to install compiz!

kiba is running now, although I have this weird blue fframe effect as well.

installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables KIBA_DOCK_CFLAGS
and KIBA_DOCK_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

thanks, that did it for me:D

btw, someone already said that libtool is required, i think we just need to wait for the original poster to edit his post.

EDIT: i was able to execute autogen successfully but now im having a problem during make.

Ok, I think I got rid of the warning, but now there are packages that are broken.
libgl1-mesa-dev libglitz-glx1-dev libglitz1-dev libxfixes-dev

I thing that this error is quite common ... try to search answer on this page: http://forum.beryl-project.org/viewforum.php?f=38
There's a lot of that ;). We must wait until kiba site will be lauched. Oh, and one more thing ... sometimes cvs are broken cuz danielb is developing kiba all the time and not everything is going like he wants.

I dunno about it 'working' fully. The systray icon seems to be broken, at least for me. It complained about it not finding kiba_24.png, so I copied it manually. After that, the kiba-systray.py is trying to launch the kiba dock from /usr/bin/ and can't find it and just sorta fails. Besides that, the new taskbar item is nice. I just wish you could adjust which side of the tray the icons appear in.

solved issue by using the version from
http://www.dpb.org.uk/ubuntu/edgy_6.10/

pretty cool stuff

I am having same problem. But I don't see package for i386. Does anybody know how I can resolved this problem or where can I get working package. I tried package from rabid9797 posted in few posts above but it has same issue.

Hi. I've been looking for a dock-app like kiba-dock since hoary (a long time). Great, I found it in the internet-jungle at last. I've downloaded and installed the debian-package that rabid9797 posted (#141).

However, if I launch kiba-dock without parameters, the icons appear in black&white, and then they start swirling around like sprite-shows in old C=64 demos. They continue to do that until I kill the app.

If I launch the app with --enable-tray, I get a segmentation-fault.

I'm running Beryl, and help is greatly appreciated :-)

I gave it a try but no go.

(kiba-dock:20780): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_str_has_suffix: assertion `str != NULL' failed

Will check again a later version.

January 27th, 2007, 12:38 PM

Everything seems to be working quite fine...
I just followed the guide in the first post. Had to change the version (as it was not a number), but apart from that, it works really great.

When changing the model (rope, wobbly, spring for all), it crashes, but the changes are saved.
So when I restart the program, it has the selected model.

That's how terminal started apps are supposed to work. Try alt+f2 and start it.

Ok, I have no idea what all those commands were, but I had to do make-install (per README file) after all those. Also, it looked like garbage:

Your method doesn't work for me. I type in "kiba-dock" and the command isn't found. I use sudo make install and bash says there is no rule to make install. Help please! I've installed kiba-dock but don't know how to run it!

Two questions. I don`t have compiz/xgl (can`t make it work) and I`m using xfwm4 as compositing manager, Does kiba-dock work if I use xfwm4 instead of xcompmgr? And Is there any taskbar module? If there is, can it be disabled, how?

ok, i fixed my problem from before, but it still has the black background. ive read that you have to have beryl install, and for all i know, i installed it correctly. is there anyway to check to see if it isnt install correctly? i have an ati x1400 video card if that makes a difference

hy I just installed it on feisty but it loocks strange, instead of the icons it shows up small preview of opened window and if I clik on the bar and try to open kiba-utils > icon edit I get this error message in a pop up window: This problem report does not apply to a packaged program. (/usr/bin/kiba-icon-editor.py) I installed with sudo make install, since sudo checkinstall did not make it start (I do have chekinstall installed)

Hi,

is anyone else experiencing problems with the autohide function?
When I start kiba-dock it works okey but after I launch a program it never hides again.

Botunda

February 23rd, 2007, 09:40 PM

It doesn't look nice when you don't have Beryl installed ;)

Yeah but how do I get beryl installed. I have the specs below on the laptop and i can't seem to find a driver that works. Or at least instructions to work! Prolly just a issue between chair and keyboard but still.

February 24th, 2007, 06:45 AM

I put it to autohide but if lounch a prog it doesn't hide anymore, also some icons do show in proper size but ones clicked they get resized smaller??? strange

check out the screenshot

Use the packages detailed at the top of the original post until kiba people sort things out.

March 1st, 2007, 03:03 PM

I tried installing a .deb package, and had that same problem. Lets all stick to avant-window-nav until this gets sorted. kiba looks really promising, so lets wait and see.

amaan

March 1st, 2007, 04:28 PM

yea i'm using the one posted at the beginning of this thread, it works perfectly except for the background being blue stripes

can't wait to get kiba running properly :)

magli

March 2nd, 2007, 06:58 AM

I am also having the same problem - it comes up with a blue-lined background, as seen in amaan's screenshot.

I also thought I should mention that after installing the .deb - it wouldn't run.. there was an error stating that libglitz was missing.

Installing libglitz1 fixed this.. but this should clearly be dependency, and get installed automatically by apt.

BaLtO

March 2nd, 2007, 09:23 AM

Looks like we all have the same problem of getting blue-line background, by using the .deb package on the front page, hopefully the problem would be solve soon.

I want to get kiba-dock working well.

wataboutbob

March 2nd, 2007, 01:53 PM

Same problem with the blue background here. Having said that... somehow I'm kinda used to having a regular panel with transparency autohide. Seems way more useful than kiba to me. Wouldn't mind trying kiba once its fixed though - nice eye candy to show off to the windows people.

jeonunh

March 2nd, 2007, 10:09 PM

Whenever I type kiba-dock in terminal or alt-f2 it just doesn't do anything. I don't get an error message or anything. In terminal it just hangs at a cursor...... any ideas?

To everyone with the "blue stripe" problem!...

If you would read the forum, people are saying they fixed it using the package (http://ubuntuforums.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=26702&d=1173154935) bg1256 (http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=164206) posted in this thread (http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2254017&postcount=194). However, please note this is not the newest version.

The reason for this problem (http://www.kiba-dock.org/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=30&topic=128.0) seems to be that the packages provided in Treviño's Beryl-SVN Ubuntu Repository (http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb/pool/edgy/beryl-svn/) are trying to run the latest kiba-dock with outdated libraries.

Personally, I got kiba-dock working by simply using the package provided at Treviño's Beryl-SVN Ubuntu Repository (http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb/pool/edgy/beryl-svn/), before the newest one. I assume this package probably still works with the older kiba-dock libraries, and therefore it loads correctly. You can grab that package here (http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb/pool/edgy/beryl-svn/kiba-dock_0.1.1+svn20070222+3v1ubuntu0_i386.deb). Also note that this is not the newest version, either.

Good luck, guys. :)

if you have this error:

kiba-dock: error while loading shared libraries: libakamaru.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

just do this:

sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libakamaru.so.0 /usr/lib/libakamaru.so.0

because Now if you try to run kiba-dock from the terminal, you will get another error about the file 'libakamaru.so.0'. This file was installed into /usr/local/lib instead of /usr/lib.

checking for GSET_KIBA... configure: error: Package requirements ("akamaru >= 0.1 kiba-dock >= 0.1") were not met:

No package 'akamaru' found
No package 'kiba-dock' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GSET_KIBA_CFLAGS
and GSET_KIBA_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

I'm sure the others are configured, I did everything according the the OP of this thread. I am kind of lost from here. Any help or points in the right direction would be amazingly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Sdr4wkc4b, you need to install subversion.

a simple 'sudo apt-get install subversion' should do the trick.

any help ?

April 19th, 2007, 10:53 AM

Don't know if it's alread been posted, so if it has, forgive me.

There seems to be a problem with beryl and kiba-dock, that when beryl is loaded, then kiba-dock loaded, it seems to endlessly spin the cube. I am not sure which app is the culprit, but I hope there is an updated kiba-dock package out there somewhere, or perhaps a work-around.

Indeed, somehow it screwed up my beryl really bad... Took me a while to get things back to normal, for me it's no kiba-dock until I have plenty of time to fix any problems it might cause.

lotacus

April 19th, 2007, 08:05 PM

I found what the problem was... at least in my case. I had "Computer" on the dock, and the cube always spun endlessly when I opened "Computer" from the dock.

So I looked at the short cut settings in kiba-settings and it displayed this: nautilus --no-desktop computer:

Through a little trial, I removed all instances so that it looked like this:

nautilus computer:

I then launched "Computer" from Kiba-dock and the cube didn't spin! However, there was a hitch, when I closed the "Computer" window, Kiba-Dock had the triangle notification still on the icon indicating the app was still launched. Clicking on the icon did not launch "Computer". The only option was to close kiba-dock and relaunch it.

If I turned off "Spin Cube" in beryl settings manager with the unmodified "Computer" settings, the cube won't spin.

I think the line: --no-desktop is the culprit as I think it tries to interact with all the virtual desktops by trying to reveal the window on all virtual desktops, giving it focus, which would make the cube spin endlessly.

I havn't found a workable solution yet without sacrificing a feature, so I don't have "Computer" on the dock.

I can't seem to be able drag'n'drop anything on to it, its just two little bits of pixels at the bottom (if I rotate my cube in beryl I can see it hiding just underneath my desktop). If I drag any icons from a kde program it just pops a menu up from kdesktop to add it there instead, but if I drag an icon from a GTK program (like inkscape) I get animated arrows appear near the dock. The icon still doesn't attach itself to the dock, do I need to be running Gnome for it to work properly or is their a KDE workaround? Or am I just doing something wrong :(
