Kinfocenter disabled in KDE 4.2.4

[Moinak Ghosh-3]

While trying out Kinfocenter on my build of KDE 4.2.4 I found that most of
the modules were empty, even those known to be working on KDE 3.

Then I found that the Cmake files are setup not to build info_solaris.cpp and
friends. After some Cmake jugglery and slight patching of info_solaris.cpp
I got things to work.

My patches are these:
http://belenix.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/belenix/trunk/spec_files/kde4/patches/kdebase4-05-kinfocenter_CMakeLists.txt.diff?revision=316&view=markup
http://belenix.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/belenix/trunk/spec_files/kde4/patches/kdebase4-06-kinfocenter_memory_CMakeLists.txt.diff?revision=316&view=markup
http://belenix.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/belenix/trunk/spec_files/kde4/patches/kdebase4-08-kinfocenter_config.diff?revision=316&view=markup
http://belenix.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/belenix/trunk/spec_files/kde4/patches/kdebase4-09-info_solaris.cpp.diff?revision=316&view=markup

I am looking at implementing the other functionality which are stubs now.

Regards,
Moinak.

I wrote most of the functionality for KInfoCenter and KSysGuard for
KDE3 -- it might be useful for KDE4 as well. The patched source code
is still here:

   What I meant is that these changes are already in KDE 4.2.4. Just that
   the cmake files were not setup to enable these components on Solaris.
   My patches enable those, so Kinfocenter now works for me on KDE4.

Regards,
Moinak.

Oooh, cool! Thanks for posting those. I must admit to not having tried
kinfocenter at all recently.
