Summary: clock runs at double speed
Product: plasma
Version: unspecified
Platform: SuSE RPMs
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: panel-devel kde org
ReportedBy: amj operamail com
Version: (using KDE 4.0.4)
Installed from: SuSE RPMs
Compiler: SuSE 11.0 distribution
OS: Linux
After starting with MS-DOS in 1984, some months ago I took the big step and became a complete Linux newbie. I eventually built a very nice Debian system on a Toshiba S1800-700 laptop. Some time later I decided to experiment with KDE. I rolled in the KDE version 3.5.5 that comes with the Debian (etch) 4.0 distribution, only to find I had a bug. I came here to report it, but found reports about KDE versions prior to 3.5.6 were not welcome. I went back to Gnome.
Now I am running OpenSUSE 11.0 on the same laptop. That means I have KDE version 4.04 - and the self same bug. Time elapses at double speed. KDE clocks up a minute every 30 seconds. However, when I remove the digital clock from the panel, that cures the problem and time elapses normally. If I restore the clock to the panel I'm back to double speed again.
Two different Linux distributions, two different versions of KDE, the same laptop. I do not have this problem with Gnome (niether Debian nor openSUSE). Gnome knows what time it is.
