Re: Trying to build a kde 5 plasma module
As suspected, pulseaudio was the culprit of no streaming in youtube. Now it works!
I hand-configured pulseaudio adding groups and user in /etc. Now I've got pulseaudio system-wide configured, so that it works also as root. I have audio in youtube, too, but the volume is still not high enough.
And kmix says I have no playback devices and I still do not get the da-da-da ready sound at startup.....

Re: Trying to build a kde 5 plasma module
Never thought I would get stuck so long on that. The output from startx 2>kde5.log is:
Which seems to mean that I do not have the appropriate graphic driver or that it does not load properly (its been a few years since I had to work with graphic drivers).
I have an Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000, which is also the xf86-video-intel.
On porteus 3.1 stock I get:
Do I go with usm xf86-video-intel-2.21.15-i486-1.txz or do I build 2014Q4 Intel Graphics Stack Release /xf86-video-intel-2.99.917 from?
http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/ind ... 917.tar.gz
With xf86-video-intel-2.21.15-i486-1.txz or not nothing changes.
Does nothing at all, no response.

Re: Trying to build a kde 5 plasma module
@francois: You seem to be hacking 002-xorg first...That is not easy; it is better to start by 003-kde, and when that works, you go on to 002-xorg!

3.2 Changing tactic:

Then dir2xzm /mnt/live/memory/changes /mnt/sda6/5plasma/kdeplasma (755 MB).

Re: Trying to build a kde 5 plasma module
@francois: You have to update all graphics modules that fanthom included in 002-org (video and input); if you don't do that, the xorg-server refuses to start!!!
Use the "current" modules from packages.slackware.com only!
I said you should start with 003-kde -it is easier-, you see results although unstable. Then make it stabler with 002-org.
Good luck!
PS.: Now I am using currently this kde5!

Re: Trying to build a kde 5 plasma module
@beny:
1.0 xwmconfig would not make a change. I have tried to install sddm:
http://alien.slackbook.org/blog/
both would not make any difference.
I have tried adding xorg.conf from porteus 3.1
I do not know if it is xorg or kde. My impression is that something is wrong with xorg.
2.0 I will try kdebugdialog next weekend:
https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=212&t=98156
Under my present plasma installation, there is some missing dependencies for kdedbugdialog, yet qca-2.0.2-i486-1and libdbusmenu-qt-0.9.2-i486-2 for some libraries other are missing.
I installed /5 of alien bob without any prior installation of kde4. Did you do the same?

When you say
I am not very familiar with updating or upgrading slackware. Here is what I am trying to do.
1.0 Downloading current (I hope this what wread meant, when he wrote from packages.slackware.com)
Downloading current, I used the following procedure and targeted /data on /mnt/sda6 where is installed my 32 bit porteus-plasma system.
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions ... 175425879/
As I lost my link in the middle of the download, how should I download only the missing files? In a case where /slackware /a to /slackware/kde were already downloaded.
rsync -avP --delete-after --delete \
--exclude "source" \
--exclude "usb-and-pxe-installers" \

3.0 Starting installation to update all graphics modules that fanthom included in 002-org:
- A basic installation of porteus 3.1 x86 without DE in always fresh mode with everything in the form of xzm modules.
- After upgrading, I will dir2xsm /mnt/live/memory/changes and have a look at the new packages.

Re: Trying to build a kde 5 plasma module
You really are a hacker.
I have been trying to work with plasma 5 on archlinux and on kubuntu. For archlinux I had a download which worked well, but then there were very important problems with the panel. The plasma 5 version of Kubuntu looked better out of the box but I experienced repetitive freezing which had to be resolved with ctrl-alt-f2 and rebooting.
I am trying now the opensuse version daily build:
https://susestudio.com/a/VU5ypu/kde-pla ... load&f=oem
When ready, I will be glad to test you porteus plama 5.2 version.
