Hello

I try to install a superkaramba theme but this fails and complains that "Kross scripting architecture" is required I should install the missing packages. Well I googled but I have not found what is required for kde 4.2?

Does any one know what is needed?

THanks a lot a further time

In Kubuntu you'd need to install libkrosspython0, but I don't know what you'd need to install in openSUSE.

Hi,

thanks. It seems to me that there is nothing shipped with openSUSE concerning kross beside some koffice stuff but this is not what is needed.

I found also some postings that with an older suse version (10.3) it helped to get rid of kde4-superkaramba and install the older superkamamba package. -- ok I will not go this way...

Seems that I finally will move soon to kubuntu. Not for this but there are many issues in a row.

thx

Hi,

for some superkaramba applets it was enought to install missing binding which seem to be renamed. In this case i have installed kdebindings4 and python-kde to get it to work.

Thanks for the hint

I did an apt get on libkrosspython0. It installed fine. But I still get the error:
"SuperKaramba cannot continue to run this theme.One or more of the required components of the Kross scripting architecture is not installed. Please consult this theme's documentation and install the necessary Kross components."

when I try to install "Aero-AllInOne 0.9.1" Theme.

Is there another component missing?

You may need to install the scripting language appropriate Kross bindings. Please consult the documentation for the appropriate SuperKaramba theme for this information.

ok, The error is not happening anymore. However I am now having a different problem: My superkaramba themes have a white background. It seems the transparency isn't working. (I must note here that I have a dual monitor setup) When I go to SYSTEM SETTINGS> DESKTOP EFFECTS, everything is greyed out. So it appears that I cannot choose the "enable desktop effects" checkbox. Nor can I click "Resume Compositing". I believe this has somethign to do with the transparency not working, but I'm not sure what I need to do to get it to work in this dual monitor setup. Any help would be much appreciated.

Is Direct Rendering available? You can run the following command to check:

Code: Select all

glxinfo  | grep -i direct

It should print out:

Code: Select all

direct rendering: Yes
