[gentoo-user] no images displayed in Konqueror or Gwenview

[gentoo-user] no images displayed in Konqueror or Gwenview

[Garry Smith]

Hi all,

My Konqueror and Gwenview applications are not displaying images (no
thumbnails or images displayed)

Gwenview 1.3.1 (Using KDE 3.5.5)

What library do I need to be looking at to get png, gif, jpeg support
for these two applications?

Many thanks

regards
Garry

You may need to increase your maximum file size for konqueror image preview.

konqueror -> settings -> configure konqueror -> Previews & Meta-Data ->
Maximum file size.

I've upped this to 3.6MB on my system to cope with the images from my 7
megapixel digicam.

The default maximum file size value is +- 1MB if I remember it right.

No idea about Gwenview though, sorry.

Cheers, Dave

you need to rebuild qt with support for all of them. Check your useflags!

Thanks for the replies.

I recompiled QT but still no joy with either Konqueror or gwenview
displaying images.

I did:

USE="opengl png zlib gif" emerge -av  x11-libs/qt

emerge -av  media-gfx/gwenview

Use flags for these packages are:

obufki gms # emerge -av  x11-libs/qt
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R   ] x11-libs/qt-4.2.3-r1  USE="cups dbus doc examples jpeg
mysql opengl png zlib -accessibility -debug -firebird -gif* -glib -mng
-nas -nis -odbc -pch -postgres -qt3support -sqlite -sqlite3 -xinerama"
INPUT_DEVICES="-wacom" 0 kB


obufki gms # emerge -av konqueror
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R   ] kde-base/konqueror-3.5.5  USE="java -arts -debug
-kdeenablefinal -kdehiddenvisibility -xinerama" 0 kB
Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB


obufki gms #  emerge -av gwenview
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R   ] media-gfx/gwenview-1.3.1-r1  USE="-arts -debug
-kdehiddenvisibility -kipi -xinerama" 0 kB
Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB

Any other ideas?

Thanks in advance
Garry

that is the wrong qt. You need to rebuilt qt3!
Also, set the flags in your make.conf.

And FIRST rebuilt qt THAN kdelibs and gwenview!
