I have been testing:
4.4.80 (KDE 4.4.80 (KDE 4.5 Beta1) and qt4.7 on kubuntu 10.04 for a few days and would like to congratulate the devs.

fast, snappy and responsive

There are a few wrinkles on my rig though:
Pentium IV 2.3 Mhz
1.5 gig Ram
ATI Radeon 9250 pro

- Klipper is persistent when opened. I have to click on the klipper widget to get it to close. I useed to be able to to just click on the desktop.
- network widget in the sys tray shows "not connected" resp. is blank and "unmanaged" with mouseover.
- quick access widget crashes plasma.

Otherwise no showstoppers (yet)

klipper persistence was resolved in the latest beta I installed, 4.4.81svn1131245

can confirm quick access widget crashes plasma

I see the same persistence in device-notifier (4.4.80) - is this also fixed in the next update?

The network widget in the systray is a not-easily-understood icon - I've discussed this with developers, and it's being considered - but on mouse-over it shows clearly that I have a cabled connection, and the text shows Connected. This is Fedora 13.

Thank you for the responses.
Glad to be in such illustrious company

I used:
ppa:kubuntu-ppa/experimental to upgrade. Wonder .81 will trickle down.

yes

Just got kubuntu maveric (10.10) from the daily's and at least the network widget is behaving again.

Still .80 though.

Login in screen is locked (no sudo) so I had to do:

Code: Select all

kdesudo dbus-launch systemsettings

After update to kde4.5 final klipper is persistent again on both lucid (10.04) and 10.10 alpha3???

Klipper persistent again after update to kde4.5 on both lucid (10.04) and maveric (10.10)

Any ideas?

Klipper persistent again after update to kde4.5

Yes, same problem here. Somehow a major screwup first fixing a bug, then breaking it again before the final release.

However, you can avoid it by right-clicking on the klipper icon instead of left-clicking to open the menu.

thanks a lot for the tip
