Description:
KSplasher 2.0 beta 1 README
---------------------------

Hi, log time has passed, but at last i have a functional version of my KSplasher Editor ported to QT4.
It has a lot of new features like:

- A new UI written in PyQT4 (that changes dependency of KSplasher to python-qt4)
- A new install/uninstall bash script based on install script for QNokiacomander from Federico Manganelli
- An "create new" wizard for your new themes
- You can change the background on-the-fly
- You can TEST your themes directly from KSplasher (before install it)
- You can save your themes as .tar.gz or directory for further modifications.

Well, as always all feedback is welcome.

Coming soon: KSplasherX, my KSplasher but for the new ksplashx splash engine (KDE4).

Installation:
- once uncompressed, run ./install.sh from konsole.
- you now can run it with ALT+F2 and "ksplasher" or click on your new ksplasher icon under "Graphics" menu.

Hia. Well, this problem is associated to a new dependency of KSplasher: Python Image Library (PIL). You can install it as you do with pygame. Look for the "python-imaging" or "python-image" or "python-pil" in your packaging system and all will works well.

FeedBack are welcome, as usual. Plz test it and help to enhance commenting it. Thanx. XaniloM.

That's what we needed. However, could you please distribute it as tar archive, not zip?

XaniloM

I copy that. Now is in tar format (and updated to v0.9)

kriko

Excellent!

i unzipped the contents of the archive to a directory. No non-latin chars int the path. chmod a+x for all .py scripts in the directory. Installed python and pygame (it installs itself into /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pygame). I even installed pygame1.7-devel packagee just to be sure i got all i need. But the only thing i get, when i start ./ksplasher.py is crossfire-like cursor and this: ./ksplasher.py: line 2: from: command not found ./ksplasher.py: line 3: from: command not found ./ksplasher.py: line 4: from: command not found : command not founde 6: ./ksplasher.py: line 36: syntax error near unexpected token `(' '/ksplasher.py: line 36: `lab=[('','','',''),('','','',''),('','','','')] in my konsole output. And yeah, after installing all those py-things i've run the ldconfig. Just to be sure of everything. Any suggestions? My system is Mandriva 2008.

Greetings. Well, i haven't try your way to run it, usually you don't need to chmod any file, and after install python, pygame, (and maybe you will need the module numpy), you only have to go to your console (inside the extracted folder) and type 'python ksplasher.py'. Hope this work.
