News from Pardus

March 9, 2009 | In: English, KDE, Pardus, Plasma, Qt

The Team works great in these days :) We have Qt-Creator, Qt 4.5.0 and KDE 4.2.1 in our development repository just after release announcements :) For KDE 4 based technologies I finished my work on Sysinfo just follow;

Now it uses Solid for Network status, Disk info and CPU info. Also with great helps of Will Stephenson I added Solid::Networking support for updating network status system widely to the our Network-Manager Plasmoid ;)

Hey!
The sysinfo-stuff looks pretty awesome, I think I will try to compile it tomorrow on my system…

Have you submitted the sysinfo changes back to SUSE? Are you maybe even working with SUSE to get sysinfo into KDE’s SVN? (It doesn’t seem to be officially in KDE.)

Regarding QtCreator, you might wanna take a look at Mandiva’s version with CMake compatibility: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3913

BTW, you should really rename your Network-Manager to avoid confusion with NetworkManager.

I think the sysinfo stuff looks great too!

The difference a theme makes — I have the openSUSE one, and am envious of that one.

@Lukas
Thanks, you will need to change /etc/pardus-release file for distro release information ;)

@Markus
I will commit them to KDE SVN but I made a lot of changes in code there is not just a theme so I ‘am looking for a way to not break SuSE one ;)
Actually we dont have 64 bit packages yet so Qmake is enough for now but the work of Mandriva looks great ;)
Pardus Network Manager and the name are older than the GNOME Network Manager :) http://tinyurl.com/avy8vy

Gökmen! Good to hear from ya, no problem mon ;-)

Did it take you so long to recover from Jamaica or were you just too busy to play with all the new toys you’ve seen there to blog?

Either way, nice work on the sysinfo and updates, if KDE SVN wasn’t so cool (and easy on Arch) I might be a Pardus user :D

Nice. You guys working on pardus will have a nice kde release with 4.x. On the top with arch and opensuse.The only problem is that you have another package system (not a problem) thats not that common used. Except that, I am looking forward trying out the next pardus…
