Dazzling Hamptons Showhouse
The 2012 Hampton Designer Showhouse highlighted bold pattern and color
If the extroverted interiors in this Hampton Designer Showhouse on Long Island are any indication, the Hamptons are no place for shrinking violets.
Over 25 designers eschewed quiet palettes and subtle adornments for audacious pattern and daring color in the 8,500-square-foot gambrel roof structure. Turquoise hobnobs with coral. Animal prints flirt with florals. Herringbone cozies up to large-scale stripes. Dressed to the nines, each space seems ready for its moment in the spotlight—eager to impress and inspire. Join us for a tour.

Foyer by Lee W. Robinson
Immediately setting the tone for pattern play is the foyer decorated by Kentucky-based designer Lee W. Robinson. Here, bluegrass meets coastal serenity. Large-scale horizontal stripes in the hues of the Hamptons coastline set the palette, while fabrics and accessories give an unequivocal nod to Kentucky's equestrian influence. A framed Hermès scarf hangs as art over the stairwell. An upholstered bench with equine legs adds whimsy.

Living Room by Patrik Lönn
In the adjoining living room, designer Patrik Lönn expands on the equestrian motif. A warm-hued horsehair wall covering enfolds the space, establishing a subtly textured backdrop for Lönn's signature mix of sophisticated elements. Custom panels inspired by an Hermès scarf from the 1950s grace the ceiling. Leather club chairs with saddle stitching face handsome horse photographs by Bob Tabor. Low-hanging lights illuminate a custom-made coffee table with a back-painted glass top, a collaboration with artist Vesna Bricelj. All shine against a determinedly subtle palette.

Living Room by Patrik Lönn
"The colors are derived from the equestrian world—the color of the horses and the leather goods," explains Lönn. "I prefer rooms in neutral palettes so that the art and people can shine in the space. Cream, brown, gray, dark ebony, black, taupe, and mocha were used with blood-red accents for the coffee table, leather-topped table, and bookcases. The crisp white ceiling, moldings, and doors provide a stark contrast to the neutral palette."
Great Room by Skye Kirby Westcott and Nancy Galasso
Spirited yet restful, welcoming yet grand, Skye Kirby Westcott and Nancy Galasso's great room for Lillian August is a study in contrasts. With its grand proportions, scale and warmth are key elements. A prodigious, clean-lined sectional sofa anchors the space, softened by plum-hued upholstery, a smattering of pillows, and an impactful fabric with pretty details used for window treatments. "We decided to use blues, grays, and purples as our colors," says Westcott. "We found the perfect fabric for the windows and pillows for the sofa, which is the hero in the room."

Dining Room by Jennifer Mabley and Austin Handler
Vibrant somehow seems an inadequate word to describe the dining room designed by the husband-and-wife design duo of Jennifer Mabley and Austin Handler. With its two-toned blue palette and lively mix of pattern, it became the showhouse's upbeat epicenter.
To encourage engagement, Mabley and Handler chose a peacock blue grass cloth wallpaper that makes a statement but remains casual enough for the beach. Mixed with white woodwork and aqua accents—on the dining chairs, the embellished drum-shade light fixture, the wainscoting, and the ceiling's coffered panels—"the color scheme is unexpected and fun," says Mabley. "It's a dining room worthy of a luxurious Hamptons beach house."

Dining Room by Jennifer Mabley and Austin Handler
"Dining rooms are usually the most formal room in a house and often the least used," says Handler. "We wanted to create a beach house dining room that was not only sophisticated but playful and punchy—a room that entices you to entertain by drawing you in rather than making you feel as though you need to keep out." Dishes and flatware are from Juliska.
Dining Room by Jennifer Mabley and Austin Handler
A multihued chevron fabric by Jonathan Adler for Kravet adds a touch of lively pattern to the space.
Kitchen by Bob Bakes
A singularly color-free zone in a multihued house, the kitchen created by Hamptons-based designer Bob Bakes has no fear of standing on its own—vivid color or not. The little black dress of the house, its simple elegance is bejeweled with stainless steel appliances, nickel fixtures, a luminous mosaic backsplash, and Carrara Bianca marble. ("It's a slightly whiter type of Carrara marble," notes Bakes.)
A double island with curved walnut-veneered columns makes the large space feel surprisingly cozy. "It's unusual, in my experience, that a double island can really make a kitchen flow, but this was a rare exception," says Bakes. "And the curved ends really help to carve the two pieces into the overall fabric of the design."

Kitchen by Bob Bakes
The elaborate custom-designed backsplash becomes the centerpiece of the otherwise uncomplicated space—playing off the gray and white of the marble and drawing the eye to its intricate sunburst pattern. "This is a classic example of the phrase, 'Don't be afraid to mix it up,'" says Bakes. "I'm a big fan of accents and pleasant distractions in a room—whether through the subtle injection of color or shape or the drama of something like a custom-designed backsplash. Design should be fun and energetic."

Conservatory by Judy Hadlock and Sean Bruns
In the conservatory for Old Town Crossing, Judy Hadlock and Sean Bruns used a mix of intriguing patterns in black and white—flame-stitch upholstery on a tub chair and geometric throw pillows—to create a restful albeit visually striking room perfect for lounging. A weighty black-lacquered coffee table with chow legs anchors the room, crowned by a shapely chandelier—feminine and flowery yet substantial.

Den by Kate Singer
Sand, sea, and sky—the Hamptons triumvirate—were the inspirations for the quietly confident den designed by Kate Singer. "I'm always inspired by nature," says Singer. "The Hamptons landscape is among the most beautiful and inspirational of all. I wanted this room to feel directly connected to that."

Den by Kate Singer
The updated ikat fabric used on the windows was the room's impetus, sparking a selection of elements with Hamptons appeal—sand-hued linens, a gallery of azure paintings, and diminutive skirted ottomans in the perfect shade of blue. "I was directly inspired by the beautiful blues of the ocean and the sky and the sandy beiges of the shore," notes Singer. "Each element is represented."

Lounge by Greg McKenzie
Turning the lower-level lounge's biggest challenge—its lack of natural light—into its strongest asset, Greg McKenzie embraced the room's windowless status and created a cozy retreat made for relaxing. Instead of shunning dynamic pattern and color, the designer saturated the space, installing a burnt-orange embroidered grass cloth on the walls and contrasting it with turquoise accents and dramatic chevron throw pillows.

Game Room by Lee Najman
Billed simply as "Her Space," Lee Najman's game room on the lower level had just one thing in mind: utter relaxation. To that end, he used a serene white-on-white cloud-inspired palette and a cocoon-like structure that acts as a comforting room-within-a-room.

"The intention was to create a fantasy space for the woman of the house so that she instantly feels as if she's in a remote location," explains the designer. "It's the shortest trip one can take—to a vacation spot without ever leaving the house."
Fun Room by Libby Langdon
For designer Libby Langdon, the goal in the fun room was "to create a relaxed retreat reminiscent of an English club room, with a modern, sexy twist," she says. "I wanted it to be an inviting space as ideal for cocktails and billiards with friends as it is for quiet moments reading a good book."

Fun Room by Libby Langdon
At almost 1,200 square feet, the room's plan was a challenge. To humanize the space, Langdon used multiple seating and gathering areas and delineated the spaces with sculptural light fixtures and creative furniture placement.

Fun Room by Libby Langdon
Noteworthy accessories—antique boat replicas, globes, maps, and old books from English Country Antiques—entice interest. "I wanted to visually draw you in as you enter the space," says Langdon. "I thought of the homeowner as a world traveler who loved collecting lots of beautiful objects. They truly became a focal point of the space."

Playroom by Diane Guariglia
The focal point in the playroom by Diane Guariglia was a bit more theatrical. "I designed a room where I envisioned Christian Grey [the main character in the Fifty Shades trilogy] would reside," notes Guariglia. "I wanted the room to be edgy and sexy, dark and complicated."

Guest Suite by Jennifer McConnell
Playing off the cool blues of the showhouse pool, designer Jennifer McConnell chose a water-inspired scheme for the guest suite she created for Pearson Furniture. A blue-and-white palette (with accents of bright coral) and an undulating pattern on the room's dominant fabric set the watery tone, accented by watercolor pillows and shots of gilded iron.
See more of the guest suite on the following slides.

Guest Suite by Jennifer McConnell
"I wanted this room to be a comfortable oasis, reflecting the idyllic views of the pool," says McConnell. "I love layering bold patterns, and I think as long as you have a theme tying your patterns together, you can't go wrong. In this case, the unifying theme is playfulness and whimsy."
Guest Suite by Jennifer McConnell
Contrasting patterns–the tie-dye fabric from Pearson and the striped rug from Karastan–work together swimmingly in the suite, which overlooks the swimming pool. Punchy corals and a gilded light fixture from Circa Lighting offset the cool blue palette. Furniture is from Pearson. Flowers are from Natural Decorations, Inc.
Powder Room by Timothy Brown
Known for the warm, edited, part-vintage, and part-modern spaces that he creates for clients, Timothy Brown went for full-on color in the beach ball-inspired powder room. "I wanted something that said beach and summer fun," he says. "I think powder rooms are places that can be unexpected and a little crazy, so I chose high-gloss blue and yellow wallpaper with a red-orange light fixture."

Master Bedroom by Robert Passal
A feminine palette fills the master bedroom designed by Robert Passal. Various tones of apricot keep the eye moving throughout the space—from the watercolor mural Passal designed with Black Crow Studios to the throw pillows and lampshades. For contrast, a large tufted bed custom-designed by Passal was upholstered in a plush citrus-green cotton velvet. "The concept is that your bed should be as comfortable as your sofa," says Passal, "and multifunctional."

The room's lively, spring-like palette was inspired by a bouquet of flowers spotted at a farmer's market. "I was having difficulty in conceptualizing a color scheme for the room," says Passal. "Once I saw this bouquet of flowers in citrusy apricot, yellow, and green, I knew that was it."

Master Sitting Room by Stephen Mooney
In the intimate master sitting room created by Stephen Mooney, the mix of patterns and jewel tones was inspired not by a floral bouquet but by an equally kaleidoscopic source. Used as draperies, the striking chinoiserie fabric becomes the room's touchstone. "It's full of vibrant, rich colors," says Mooney.

Master Bath by Mercedes Courland
The gray-and-magenta master bath designed by Mercedes Courland is all about glamour. "I wanted to maximize the look of the marble," says Courland. "I envisioned a rich charcoal wallpaper with a transitional pattern, but it had to be the appropriate scale for this huge space, unifying the traditional builder details such as the coffers in the ceiling and the crown molding with the more modern details."

While the palette was relatively quiet—watery blue and soft creams—the punch comes from the pattern. Leede used a fabric of her own design to upholster the walls above a soft blue wainscoting. "The wallpaper is definitely the star here in terms of color and intensity," notes Leede.

To balance that intensity, other elements were kept somewhat simple. An alpaca rug creates a blank but textural slate. The upholstered headboard, glass-top trestle desk, and slipper chairs offer traditional forms with a twist, providing respite in the complex scheme. "My favorite thing about the room is how harmoniously everything works together," says Leede. "The overall effect is actually quite serene and artful."
Nursery by Tamara Kaye-Honey
In the dramatic nursery by Tamara Kaye-Honey, audacious pattern plays graciously with classic forms. Chosen for its "graphic punch and youthfulness," says Honey, a coral-and-white fabric by textile designer Lulu deKwiatkowski envelops one wall, coyly coordinating with a large-scale wallpaper used from chair rail to lacquered ceiling. "The bright coral and turquoise along with the pattern were the perfect complement to the dark, moody walls," says Honey. "The coffered ceiling and wainscot had more impact when painted a glossy, darker shade."

Guest Bedroom by Tammy Connor
In the guest bedroom designed by Birmingham, Alabama-based designer Tammy Connor, serenity takes a layered approach. "The wallpaper was my starting point," says Connor. "And while the palette was a natural fit for the coastal setting, changing the direction of the stripe on the walls resulted in a playful design element. We then layered contrasting textures, patterns, and antique furniture, and suspended trouble lights to add some quirkiness to the room—creating a collected-over-time feel."

Can I use this on metal?- Asked by Zuzana on 11-Jul-13
You could only use acrylic on metal if you primed and sealed it, as it would likely peel off. Enamel is better for metal.- Answered by MisterArt on 11-Jul-13

Graphite Transfer Paper
by Bienfang
Graphite transfer paper is always handy to have around the studio, classroom or home. Transfer any design, image or drawing to any surface a pencil can write on. It works like the carbon paper we are all familiar with, but the graphite paper transfer can be erased easily with a pencil eraser. Great for sign making, school banners, murals, stenciling, sewing, airbrush, painting, and almost any art or craft project you can think of.

From KDE - KDE Software Compilation:
- The KDE Software Compilation grew out of the history of the KDE Project. In its inception, KDE was formed to create a beautiful, functional and free desktop computing environment for Linux and similar operating systems. At the time, these systems lacked a graphical user environment that could rival the offerings from the larger proprietary operating system vendors. KDE was created to fill this gap.
- The KDE Software Compilation is the set of libraries, workspaces, and applications produced by KDE that share this common heritage, and continue to use the synchronized release cycle. Software may move in and out of this semi-formally defined collection depending on the particular needs of the contributors who are working on that software, with exceptions made to ensure that binary compatibility remains at the library level throughout any major release of the compilation.
From KDE - Getting KDE Software:
- KDE software consists of a large number of individual applications and a desktop workspace as a shell to run these applications. You can run KDE applications just fine on any desktop environment. KDE applications are built to integrate well with your system's components. By using also KDE workspace, you get even better integration of your applications with the working environment while lowering system resource needs.
The KDE upstream has a well maintained UserBase wiki. Users can get detailed information about most KDE applications there.

KDE 4.10 Software Compilation is the current major release of KDE. Important hints for upgraders:
- Always check if your mirror is up to date.
- Do not force an update using pacman --force. If pacman complains about conflicts please file a bug report.
- You can remove the meta packages and the sub packages you do not need after the update.
- If you do not like split packages just keep using the kde-meta packages.
KDE 4.x is modular. You can install an entire set of packages or only install your preferred KDE applications.
Full install
Install kde or kde-meta available in the official repositories. For differences between kde and kde-meta see the KDE Packages article.
Minimal install
If you want to have a minimal installation of the KDE SC, install:
- kdebase
- phonon-vlc or phonon-gstreamer as phonon backend
Language pack
If you need language files, install
kde-l10n-yourlanguagehere (e.g. kde-l10n-de for the German language).
For a full list of available languages see this link.
Starting KDE
Starting KDE depends on your preferences. Basically there are two ways of starting KDE. Using KDM or xinitrc.
Using KDM (KDE Display Manager)
It is highly recommended to get familiar with the full article concerning display managers, before you make any changes. See also KDM Wiki page.
Using xinitrc
The meaning and usage of xinitrc is very well described here.
kdebase-workspace provides startkde. Make sure it is installed. Then edit
~/.xinitrc, uncomment:
exec startkde
After a reboot and/or log-in, each execution of Xorg (startx or xinit) will start KDE automatically.
All KDE configuration is saved in the
~/.kde4 folder. If your KDE is giving you a lot of trouble or if you ever want a fresh installation of KDE, just back this folder up and restart your X session. KDE will re-create this folder with all the default config files. If you want very fine-grained control over your KDE programs, then you may want to edit the files in this folder.
However, configuring KDE is primarily done in 'System Settings'. There are also a few other options available for the desktop with 'Default Desktop Settings' when you right click the desktop.
For other personalization options not covered below such as activities, different wallpapers on one cube, etc please refer to the Plasma wiki page.
How to set up the KDE desktop to your personal style; use different Plasma themes, window decorations and icon themes.
Plasma desktop
Plasma is a desktop integration technology that provides many functions from displaying the wallpaper, adding widgets to the desktop, and handling the panels or "taskbar".
Plasma themes can be installed through the Desktop Settings control panel. Plasma themes define how your panels and plasmoids look like. If you like to have them installed system-wide, themes can be found in both the official repositories and AUR.
Plasmoids are little scripted or coded KDE apps that enhance the functionality of your desktop. There are two kinds, plasmoid scripts and plasmoid binaries.
Plasmoid binaries must be installed using PKGBUILDS from AUR. Or write your own PKGBUILD.
The easiest way to install plasmoid scripts is by right-clicking onto a panel or the desktop:
Add Widgets > Get new Widgets > Download Widgets
This will present a nice frontend for kde-look.org and allows you to (un)install or update third-party plasmoid scripts with just one click.
Most plasmoids are not created officially by KDE developers. You can also try installing Mac OS X widgets, Microsoft Windows Vista/7 widgets, Google Widgets, and even SuperKaramba widgets.
Sound applet in the system tray
Install Kmix (kdemultimedia-kmix) from the official repositories and start it from the application launcher. Since KDE autostarts programs from the previous session, the program need not be started manually every time one logs in.
Window decorations
Window decorations can be changed in
System Settings > Workspace Appearance > Window Decorations
There you can also directly download and install more themes with one click and some are available on AUR.
Icon themes
Not many full system icons themes are available for KDE 4. You can open up System Settings > Application Appearance > Icons and browse for new ones or install them manually. Many of them can be found on kde-look.org.
Official logos, icons, CD labels and other artwork for Arch Linux are provided in the archlinux-artwork package. After installing you can find such artwork at
Fonts in KDE look poor
Try installing the ttf-dejavu and ttf-liberation packages.
After the installation, be sure to log out and back in. You should not have to modify any settings in the "Fonts" panel of the KDE System Settings application.
If you have personally set up how your Fonts render, be aware that System Settings may alter their appearance. When you go System Settings > Appearance > Fonts, System Settings will likely alter your font configuration file (
There is no way to prevent this but if you set the values to match your
fonts.conf file the expected font rendering will return (it will require you to restart your application or in a few cases for you to have to restart your desktop).
Note too that Gnomes' Font Preferences will also do this if you use both desktop environments.
Fonts are huge or seems disproportional
Try to force fonts DPI to 96 on System Settings > Application Appearance > Fonts.
If it does not work try set DPI directly on Xorg configuration here.
Space efficiency
Users with small screens (eg Netbooks) can change some setting to make KDE more space efficient. See upstream wiki for more info. Also you can use KDE's Plasma Netbook which is a workspace made specifically for small, lightweight netbook devices.
You can choose from the following tools:
- NetworkManager. See NetworkManager for more information.
- Wicd and its KDE front end wicd-kdeAUR. See Wicd for more information.
The printers are configured in this way can be found in applications KDE.
You can also choose the printer configuration through System Settings > Printer Configuration. To use this method, you must first install the packages kdeutils-print-manager and cups.
You need to start the avahi-daemon and cupsd daemons first or you will get the following error:
The service 'Printer Configuration' does not provide an interface 'KCModule' with keyword 'system-config- printer-kde/system-config-printer-kde.py' The factory does not support creating components of the specified type.
If you are getting the following error, you need to give the user rights to manage printers:
There was an error during CUPS operation: 'cups-authorization-canceled'
For CUPS, this is set in
lp to
SystemGroup allows anyone who can print to configure printers. You can, of course, add another group instead of
# Administrator user group... SystemGroup sys root lp
Samba/Windows support
If you want to have access to Windows services install Samba (package samba).
You may then configure your Samba shares through
System Settings > Sharing > Samba
KDE Desktop activities
KDE Desktop Activities are Plasma based "virtual desktop"-like set of Plasma Widgets where you can independently configure widgets as if you had more than one screens/desktops.
On your desktop, click the Cashew Plasmoid and on the pop-up window press "Activities".
A plasma bar will appear at the bottom of the screen which presents you the current Plasma Desktop Activities which exist. You can then navigate between them by pressing their correspondent icon.
Power saving
KDE has an integrated power saving service called "Powerdevil Power Management" that may adjust the power saving profile of the system and/or the brightness of the screen (if supported).
How to enable Cpufreq based power saving
Since KDE 4.6, CPU frequency scaling is no longer managed by KDE. Instead it is assumed to be handled automatically by the the hardware and/or kernel. Arch uses
ondemand as default cpufreq governor from kernel vesion 3.3. See wiki article on cpufreq.
If you are happy with setting your governor once at boot (with the
cpufreq daemon script, for example) then this section is not relevant and can be skipped.
- If you have not already done so, install the cpufrequtils package (for the
- Next, you will need to grant access to cpufreq-set for the appropriate users by configuring sudo. For example, if you are part of the wheel group, you could use
visudoto add:
%wheel ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/cpufreq-set
to your
sudoers file.
3. From System Settings > Power Management > Power Profiles select a profile to edit or create a new one. Check the Run Script option and add an appropriate
cpufreq-set command for the selected power profile. For example, your "Powersave" profile might have:
sudo cpufreq-set -r -g ondemand
Your "Performance" profile might have
sudo cpufreq-set -r -g performance
For some CPU families the
-r switch may not set the governor for all cores/cpus and instead only set the governor for CPU 0. In this case you will need to write a script to iterate through all your cores. A simple script for a four core system could look like:
#!/bin/bash for i in {0..3}; do sudo /usr/bin/cpufreq-set -c${i} -gondemand done
- You can check which governors are active with
cpufreq-info -oor less intuitively by inspecting
Monitoring changes on local files and directories
KDE now uses inotify directly from the kernel with kdirwatch (included in kdelibs), so Gamin or FAM are no longer needed. You may want to install this kdirwatchAUR from AUR which is a GUI frontend for kdirwatch.
System administration
Set keyboard layout in order switch language inputs
In order to do that, navigate to
System Settings > Hardware > Input Devices > Keyboard
There you may choose your keyboard model at first.
In the "Layouts" tab, you choose the languages you may want to use by pressing the "Add Layout" button and therefore the variant and the language. In the "Advanced" tab, you can choose the keyboard combination you want in order to change the layouts in the "Key(s) to change layout" sub-menu.
Terminate Xorg-server through KDE system settings
Navigate to:
System Settings > Input Devices > Keyboard > Advanced (tab) > "Key Sequence to kill the X server" submenu

Desktop search and semantic desktop
According to Wikipedia, "the Semantic Desktop is a collective term for ideas related to changing a computer's user interface and data handling capabilities so that data is more easily shared between different applications or tasks and so that data that once could not be automatically processed by a computer can be (automatically processed)."
The KDE implementation of this concept is tied to (as of KDE 4.10) two major pieces of software, Akonadi and Nepomuk. Between the two of them, these programs look at your data and make an easily searchable index of it. The idea behind these pieces of software is to make your system "aware" of your data and give it context using meta-data and user-supplied tags.
Soprano and Virtuoso are two dependencies of the Nepomuk Semantic Desktop. Since the relationship between the two major components and their dependencies is not very clear, the following sections try to shed some light on their inner workings.
Virtuoso and Soprano
The database used to store all the metadata used by the semantic desktop is a Resource Description Framework (RDF) database called Virtuoso. Internally, Virtuoso may be looked as a relational database. (A relational database is different from a traditional single-table based database in the sense that it uses multiple tables related by a single key in order to store data.) It is currently controlled by OpenLink, and is available under commercial and an open source license.
From the KDE Techbase, Soprano is a Qt abstraction over databases. It provides a friendly Qt-based API for accessing different RDF stores. It currently supports 3 database backends - Sesame, Redland and Virtuoso. The KDE Semantic Stack only works with Virtuoso. Soprano also provides additional features such as serializing, parsing RDF data, and a client server architecture that is heavily used in Nepomuk.
Nepomuk stands for "Networked Environment for Personal, Ontology-based Management of Unified Knowledge". It is what allows all the tagging and labeling of files as well to take place and also serves as the way to actually read the Virtuoso databases. It provides an API to application developers which allows them to read the data collected by it.
In the past, the "Strigi" service was used to collect data about the various files present on the system. However, due to many reasons, the most important of them being CPU and Memory usage, Strigi was replaced by a homegrown indexing service which is integrated with Nepomuk-Core.
For further information about Nepomuk, this page is a good resource. However, some of the information in the previous page has been rendered outdated according to this blog post.
Using and configuring Nepomuk
In order to search using Nepouk on the KDE desktop, press Template:Keypress and type in your query. Nepomuk is enabled by default. It can be turned on and off in
System Settings > Desktop Search
Nepomuk has to keep track of a lot of files. It is for this reason that it is recommended to increase the number of files that can be watched with inotify. In order to do that this command is a good option.
sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288
To do it persistently:
echo "fs.inotify.max_user_watches = 524288" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
Restart Nepomuk to see the changes.
KDE without Nepomuk
If you wish to run KDE without Nepomuk, there exists a nepomuk-core-fakeAUR package in the AUR.
Akonadi is a system meant to act as a local cache for PIM data, regardless of its origin, which can be then used by other applications. This includes the user's emails, contacts, calendars, events, journals, alarms, notes, and so on. It interfaces with the Nepomuk libraries to provide searching capabilities.
Akonadi does not store any data by itself: the storage format depends on the nature of the data (for example, contacts may be stored in vcard format).
For more information on Akonadi and its relationship with Nepomuk, see [1] and [2].
Disabling Akonadi
See this section in the KDE userbase.
Database configuration
akonaditray from package kdepim-runtime. Right click on it and select configure. In the Akonadi server configure tab, you can:
- Configuring Akonadi to use MySQL Server running on the System
- Configuring Akonadi to use sqlite
Running KDE without Akonadi
The package akonadi-fakeAUR is a good option for those who wish to run KDE without Akonadi.
What is Phonon?
From Wikipedia: Phonon is the multimedia API for KDE 4. Phonon was created to allow KDE 4 to be independent of any single multimedia framework such as GStreamer or xine and to provide a stable API for KDE 4's lifetime. It was done for various reasons: to create a simple KDE/Qt style multimedia API, to better support native multimedia frameworks on Windows and Mac OS X, and to fix problems of frameworks becoming unmaintained or having API or ABI instability.
Phonon is being widely used within KDE, for both audio (e.g., the System notifications or KDE audio apps) and video (e.g., the Dolphin video thumbnails).
Which backend should I choose?
You can choose between various backends, like GStreamer (phonon-gstreamer) or VLC (phonon-vlc) available in the official repositories, Xine (phonon-xineAUR) or MPlayer (phonon-mplayer-gitAUR) available on AUR. Most users will want GStreamer or VLC which have the best upstream support. Note that multiple backends can be installed at once and you can switch between them via System Settings > Multimedia > Phonon > Backend.
According to announcement of KDE 4.6 in Arch and mail in Phonon dev list, users should prefer GStreamer over VLC due to the feature difference.
Useful applications
The official set of KDE applications may be found here.
This application provides a Quake-like terminal emulator, which is toggled visible using the F12 key. It also has support for multiple tabs. Yakuake can be installed by package yakuake.
KDE Telepathy
KDE Telepathy is a project with the goal to closely integrate Instant Messaging with the KDE desktop. It utilizes the Telepathy framework as a backend, and is intended to replace Kopete.
To install all Telepathy protocols install the telepathy group. To use the KDE Telepathy client, install the kde-telepathy-meta package that includes all the packages contained in the kde-telepathy group .
Tips and tricks
Configure KWin to use OpenGL ES
Beginning with KWin version 4.8 it is possible to use the separately built binary kwin_gles as a replacement for kwin. It behaves almost the same as the kwin executable in OpenGL2 mode with the slight difference that it uses egl instead of glx as the native platform interface. To test kwin_gles you just have to run
kwin_gles --replace in Konsole.
If you want to make this change permanent you have to create a script in
$(kde4-config --localprefix)/env/ which exports
Enabling video thumbnails under Konqueror/Dolphin file managers
For thumbnails of videos in konqueror and dolphin install kdemultimedia-mplayerthumbs or kdemultimedia-ffmpegthumbs.
Speed up application startup
User Rob wrote on his blog this "magic trick" to improve applications start up by 50-150ms. To enable it, create this folder in your home:
$ mkdir -p ~/.compose-cache
For those curious about what is going on here, this enables an optimization which Lubos (of general KDE speediness fame) came up with some time ago and was then rewritten and integrated into libx11. Ordinarily on startup applications read input method information from
/usr/share/X11/locale/<your locale>/Compose. This Compose file is quite long (>5000 lines for the en_US.UTF-8 one) and takes some time to process. libX11 can create a cache of the parsed information which is much quicker to read subsequently, but it will only re-use an existing cache or create a new one in
~/.compose-cache if the directory already exists. [Cit. Rob]
Hiding partitions
In Dolphin, it is as simple as right-clicking on the partition in the 'Places' sidebar and selecting 'Hide <partition>'. Otherwise...
If you wish to prevent your internal partitions from appearing in your file manager, you can create an udev rule, for example
KERNEL=="sda[0-9]", ENV{UDISKS_IGNORE}="1"
The same thing for a certain partition:
KERNEL=="sda1", ENV{UDISKS_IGNORE}="1" KERNEL=="sda2", ENV{UDISKS_IGNORE}="1"
Konqueror tips
Disabling smart key tooltips (browser)
To disable those smart key tooltips in Konqueror (pressing Template:Keypress on a web page), open
~/.kde4/share/config/konquerorrc and add this section:
[Access Keys] Enabled=false
To disable this small sidebar tab on the left side, open
~/.kde4/share/config/konqsidebartng.rc and set
HideTabs to
Using WebKit
WebKit is an open source browser engine developed by Apple Inc. It is a derivative from the KHTML and KJS libraries and contains many improvements. WebKit is used by Safari, Google Chrome and rekonq.
It is possible to use WebKit in Konqueror instead of KHTML. First install the kwebkitpart package.
Then, after executing Konqueror, press Settings > Configure Konqueror.
On the General submenu, select WebKit as the Default web browser engine.

Getting current state of KWin for support and debug purposes
This command prints out a wonderful summary of the current state of KWin including used options, used compositing backend and relevant OpenGL driver capabilities. See more at Martin's blog
qdbus org.kde.kwin /KWin supportInformation
KDE4 does not finish loading
There might be a situation in which the graphic driver might create a conflict when starting KDE4. This situation happens after the login but before finishing loading the desktop, making the user wait indefinitely at the loading screen. Until now the only users confirmed to be affected by this are the ones that use Nvidia drivers and KDE4.
A solution for Nvidia users is to edit the file at
/home/user/.kde4/share/config/kwinrc and change the option Enabled=true to false in the [Compositing] section. For more information look at this thread.
If a minimal install was done, make sure you installed the required font by your phonon backend listed here: KDE#Minimal_install
KDE and Qt programs look bad when in a different window manager
If you are using KDE or Qt programs but not in a full KDE session (specifically, you did not run "startkde"), then as of KDE 4.6.1 you will need to tell Qt how to find KDE's styles (Oxygen, QtCurve etc.)
You just need to set the environment variable QT_PLUGIN_PATH. E.g. put:
export QT_PLUGIN_PATH=$HOME/.kde4/lib/kde4/plugins/:/usr/lib/kde4/plugins/
into your
/etc/profile (or
~/.profile if you do not have root access). qtconfig should then be able to find your kde styles and everything should look nice again!
Alternatively, you can symlink the Qt styles directory to the KDE styles one:
# ln -s /usr/lib/kde4/plugins/styles/ /usr/lib/qt/plugins/styles
Under Gnome you can try to install the package libgnomeui.
KDE and Qt programs look bad after upgrade (using kwin)
The problem is caused by old cache. Run the following to rebuild it:
$ rm ~/.config/Trolltech.conf $ kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental
Low 2D desktop performance (or) artifacts appear when on 2D
GPU driver problem
Make sure you have the proper driver for your card installed, so that your desktop is at least 2D accelerated. Follow these articles for more information: ATI, NVIDIA, Intel for more information, in order to make sure that everything is all right. The open-source ATI and Intel drivers and the proprietary (binary) Nvidia driver should theoretically provide the best 2D and 3D acceleration.
The Raster engine workaround
If this does not solve your problems, maybe your driver does not provide a good XRender acceleration which the current Qt painter engine relies on by default.
You can change the painter engine to software based only by invoking the application with the "-graphicssystem raster" command line. This rendering engine can be set as the default one by recompiling Qt with the same as configure option, "-graphicssystem raster".
The raster paint engine enables the CPU to do the majority of the painting, as opposed to the GPU. You may get better performance, depending on your system. This is basically a work-around for the terrible Linux driver stack, since the CPU should obviously not be doing graphical computations since it is designed for fewer threads of greater complexity, as opposed to the GPU which is many threads but lesser computational strength. So, only use Raster engine if you are having problems or your GPU is much slower than you CPU, otherwise is better to use XRender.
Since Qt 4.7+, recompiling Qt is not needed. Simply export QT_GRAPHICSSYSTEM=raster, or "opengl", or "native" (for the default). Raster depends on the CPU, OpenGL depends on the GPU and high driver support, and Native is just using the X11 rendering (mixture, usually).
The best and automatic way to do that is to install kcm-qt-graphicssystemAUR from AUR and configure this particular Qt setting through
System Settings > Qt Graphics System
For more information, consult this KDE Developer blog entry and/or this Qt Developer blog entry.
Low 3D desktop performance
KDE begins with desktop effects enabled. Older cards may be insufficient for 3D desktop acceleration. You can disable desktop effects in
System Settings > Desktop Effects
or you can toggle desktop effects with Template:Keypress.
Desktop compositing is disabled on my system with a modern Nvidia GPU
Sometimes, KWin may have settings in its configuration file (kwinrc) that may cause a problem on re-activating the 3D desktop OpenGL compositing. That could be caused randomly (for example, due to a sudden Xorg crash or restart, and it gets corrupted), so, in case that happens, delete your
~/.kde4/share/config/kwinrc file and relogin. The KWin settings will turn to the KDE default ones and the problem should be probably gone.
Flickering in fullscreen when compositing is enabled
As of KDE SC 4.6.0, there is an option in systemsettings > Desktop Effect > Advanced > "Suspend desktop effects for fullscreen windows" Uncheck it would tell kwin to disable unredirect fullscren.
Screen Tearing with desktop compositing enabled
KWin may suffer from screen tearing while desktop effects are enabled. Uncheck the VSync option under System Settings > Desktop Effects > Advanced > "Use Vsync".
For proprietary driver users, ensure that the driver's VSync option is enabled (amdccle for Catalyst users, and nvidia-settings for Nvidia users).
Sound problems under KDE
"Falling back to default" messages when trying to listen to any sound in KDE
When you encounter such messages:
- The audio playback device <name-of-the-sound-device> does not work.
- Falling back to default
Go to
System Settings > Multimedia > Phonon
and set the device named "default" above all the other devices in each box you see.
I cannot play MP3 files when using the GStreamer Phonon backend
That can be solved by installing the GStreamer plugins (package gstreamer0.10-plugins. If you still encounter problems, you can try changing the Phonon backend used by installing another such as phonon-vlc. Then make sure the backend is preferred via:
System Settings > Multimedia > Phonon > Backend (tab)
I want a fresh installation of KDE for my system
Just rename the settings directory of KDE (just in case you will want to go back to your original settings):
mv ~/.kde4 ~/.kde4-backup
Plasma desktop behaves strangely
Plasma issues are usually caused by unstable plasmoids or plasma themes. First, find which was the last plasmoid or plasma theme you had installed and disable it or uninstall it.
So, if your desktop suddenly exhibits "locking up", this is likely caused by a faulty installed widget. If you cannot remember which widget you installed before the problem began(sometimes it can be an irregular problem), try to track it down by removing each widget until the problem ceases. Then you can uninstall the widget, and file a bug report (bugs.kde.org) only if it is an official widget. If it is not, I recommend you find the entry on kde-look.org and inform the developer of that widget about the issue (detailing steps to reproduce, etc).
If you cannot find the problem, but you do not want all the KDE settings to be lost, do:
rm -r ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma*
This command will delete all plasma related configs of your user and when you will relogin into KDE, you will have the default settings back. You should know that this action cannot be undone. You ought to create a backup folder and copy all the plasma related configs in it.
Konsole does not save commands' history
By default console commands' history is saved only when you type 'exit' in console. When you close Konsole with 'x' in the corner it does not happen. To enable autosaving after every command execution you should add following lines into your .bashrc
shopt -s histappend [[ "${PROMPT_COMMAND}" ]] && PROMPT_COMMAND="$PROMPT_COMMAND;history -a" || PROMPT_COMMAND="history -a"
KDE password prompts display three bullets per char
You can change it under System Settings > Account Details. At Password & User Account the options are:
- Show one bullet for each letter
- Show three bullets for each letter
- Show nothing
Nepomukserver process still autostart even with semantic desktop disabled
Go to System Settings > Startup and Shutdown > Service Manager > Startup Services and uncheck the Nepomuk Search Module.
File Indexer Service not working even after enabling everything properly
This is caused due to a corrupted Nepomuk database. It may be remedied by moving the database or deleting it all together. Log out of KDE and issue this command from a virtual console:
$ mv ~/.kde4/share/apps/nepomuk ~/.kde4/share/apps/nepomuk_backup
to move your existing (and corrupt) nepomuk database. It will be recreated when you log in again.
Desktop does not respond for several seconds at startup
There is a bug in either pulseaudio or kde that makes the desktop not being usable for a few seconds after it has showed up (for example if you click on the K-menu it does not appears until that waiting time has elapsed).
The workaround is to disable
/etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop by adding the following line at the end (do not omit the semicolon):
Note that you could also remove that file, or renaming it (to pulseaudio.desktop.disable or the like) but then it will not load in other Desktop Managers, and will be restored by a package update.
Mysterious hangs/slowness after upgrade
Try cleaning up your cache. Sometimes after an upgrade, the old cache might introduce strange, hard to debug behaviour such as unkillable shells, hangs when changing various settings and several other problems such as ark being unable to unrar or unzip or amarok not recognizing any of your musics.
To clean up your cache run as your normal user:
rm ~/.config/Trolltech.conf kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental
Hopefully, your problems are now fixed.
Dolphin and File Dialogs are extremely slow to start everytime
For me this was caused by the upower service, if you don't need it, just run :
systemctl disable upower systemctl mask upower
As far as I can tell it has no side effects, but then I use a desktop not a laptop.
Other KDE projects
Official kde-unstable
When KDE is reaching beta or RC milestone, KDE "unstable" packages are uploaded to the [kde-unstable] repo. They stay there until KDE is declared stable and passes to [extra].
You may add it by adding:
[kde-unstable] SigLevel = PackageRequired Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
- kde-unstable is based upon testing. Therefore, you need to enable the repositories in the following order: kde-unstable, testing, core, extra, community-testing, community.
- To update from a previous KDE installation, run:
pacman -Syuor
pacman -S kde-unstable/kde
- If you don't have KDE installed, you might have difficulties to install it by using groups (limitation of pacman)
- Subscribe and read the arch-dev-public mailing list
- Make sure you make bug reports if you find any issues.
From the release of KDE 4.x, the developers dropped support for KDE 3.5.x. Trinity Desktop Environment is a fork of KDE3 developed by Timothy Pearson (trinitydesktop.org). This project aims to keep the KDE3.5 computing style alive, as well as polish off any rough edges that were present as of KDE 3.5.10. See Trinity for more info.
Distro and Upstream bug report
It is preferrable that if you find a minor or serious bug, you should visit the Arch Bug Tracker or/and KDE Bug Tracker in order to report that. Make sure that you be clear on what you want to report.
If you have any issue and you write about in on the Arch forums, first make sure that you have FULLY updated your system using a good sync mirror (check here) or try Reflector.
