Hi folks, what to do with the following little errors in kcontrol installed by the KDE 2.01 port (maintainer is cc´ed)? I searched the FreeBSD gnats and KDE bugs, but nobody seems to have touched this problem until now. Error 1 (maybe OS independant): In menu System->Login Manager->Sessions (will change kdm behaviour) the command for "Shutdown" is written in the file /usr/local/share/config/kdmrc as variable "ShutDown". But executed and read is the variable "Shutdown". So any changes won´t be displayed or executed. The value for "Allow to shutdown" is written to and read from the variable "ShutDownButton", but executed is the variable "ShutdownButton". So any changes will be displayed, but not executed. Error 2 (FreeBSD only): The "Console mode" command defaults to "/sbin/init 3", which is of course meaningless in FBSD. I would suggest "/sbin/shutdown now" to switch to single user mode instead. Correction: Probably some ~ and cw commands in vi , when editing a file called similar to kcontrol.c ? ;-) Got the above results by experimenting, not looking at the sources, as those are really too big for me. Some information to be sure: su-2.04# uname -a FreeBSD mycomputer.mydomain 4.2-STABLE FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #0: Sat Feb 10 07:15:09 CET 2001 root@mycomputer.mydomain:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MYCOMPUTER i386 su-2.04# kcontrol -v Qt: 2.2.4 KDE: 2.0.1 KDE Control Center: v2.0 su-2.04# kdm -v su-2.04# *DAMN*; kdm was installed by the same kde meta port as kcontrol Should I file a PR? Never did this before. Should this be one with Category:ports; Severity:non-critical; Priority:low; Class:sw-bug (for the capital letter problem) and another one with Class:change-request (for the FBSD defaults) or can I submit one with everything included?
