I'm really happy with your changes on the Display Configuration introduced on 4.7.1. I think we're getting there :) As for a comment I wrote on that article, it was originated from a nice Mac feature which stores the screen profiles between changes. Luckily, some days ago I found that this same thing it can be done on Linux and somebody already implemented it on a shell script: https://github.com/wertarbyte/autorandr I think having this auto-store/restore screen profile feature on KDE would be a huge win (maybe using solid for switching whenever there is a change?). Just my 2cents :) Keep on the great work! Thanks a lot for your work. I’m really happy with your changes on the Display Configuration introduced on 4.7.1. I think we’re getting there :)

An MTP kio slave is a must-have, especially with android 4 switching entirely to MTP for file transfers. Thanks for working on MTP (in addition to the great bluetooth work).

I can think of a few places (systemsettings configure user and avatar setting in Telepathy) that could really benefit from it a widget/KPart/Dialog which shows the webcam a "take photo" button and returns a QPixmap.

]]> Comment on Display Configuration in KDE-Workspace 4.7.1 by Amnon Harel http://www.afiestas.org/display-configuration-in-kde-workspace-4-7-1/comment-page-1/#comment-13234 Amnon Harel Wed, 23 Nov 2011 19:27:32 +0000 http://www.afiestas.org/?p=418#comment-13234 Thanks for working on these issues. A feature which is really bothering me, having switched from linux inside windows as a virtual box to windows inside linux, is that I can't save the monitor configuration, except as "default". I want the default to be laptop only, but there are 2 or 3 locations where I often work with their typical monitor setups. If this feature, of storing and loading named configurations, is really missing, I hope you find the time to add it. And if it's not missing, it won't be the first time I failed to find the feature I want :-( Thanks for working on these issues.

I hope you are able to find the problem and fix it. Also, I wish I could have provided a deeper analysis, but without a better understanding of how the bluedevil daemon works, what its config files are and how they should be set up, there's not much more I can do. Lack of documentation is frustrating and I'm still willing to help fix this, if I can. Thanks again for all your work on bluetooth, integrating with NetworkManager and bringing all this to the Linux community. Ok, I’ve reported it as bug 285637.

I've got a problem with Kubuntu 11.10 running Bluedevil 1.2.1 and NetworkManager 0.9.1. I can't tether to my iPhone (iPhone=NAP/PAN), a big deal for me because I often work on trains. If I browse my Bluetooth neighbourhood using Dolphin, I can see services offered by another Linux m/c and Windows but my iPhone has nothing. When I do an sdptool browse on my phone, a complete range of services is on offer. When I pair with my iPhone in 'Select a device' it pairs ok but then says it was successful and closes the window. No chance to select a service. When I connect, hover over my phone in Known Devices in the system tray menu, it says 'No supported Services Found'. I guess an sdp query is missing somewhere. That's the issue for me, I can't find any documentation which is helpful in locating the problem. I am willing to write a guide on setting up Bluetooth & NetworkManager which covers what to do when things are not working, but I would need a mentor to do this. Does this offer interest you? (I know beer would probably be more interesting, but I can't do that over the Internet!) First, I want to say how much I appreciate the work you are doing.

But it doesn't work. There's a line that says "fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git". So I googled BlueDevil to see I could find a way to download and install (and add the repository) and the repository is in a .git URL. I tried going to the address but it says I don't have the git protocol associated to any program. Which program do I need? Thanks in advance! =D Hey, @afiestas.
