    New style progress bar

    Hi All, I am using Kubuntu 8.10 with KDE 4.2.
    I have noticed that when you are copying files from say a USB Stick to the hard drive the there is a new style progress bar that's displayed under the time.
    However, this new progress bar doesn't stay visible during for the full duration that you are copying all the files. It only seems to stay visible for a few seconds and then disappears. Therefore I cannot tell when an operation has completed.
    Is there a way that I can make the progress bar stay visible during the whole of the operation likein KDE 4.1...(Hope this all makes sense!!!!)

    Maybe with the old style > aseigo: today's tip: turning off the fancy schmancy notifications in the panel
    If you are one of those people who would like their old notifications and/or download windows back, have no fear. Plasma is not greedy.

    First, stop plasma with `kquitapp plasma`. Then open up `kde4-config --localprefix`/share/config/plasma-appletsrc and put this somewhere in there:


    [AppletGlobals][plasma_applet_systemtray]
    ShowJobs=false
    ShowNotifications=false


    Start Plasma again and voila...

    =>

    Start the konsole and:
    Code:
    kquitapp plasma
    Press Alt + F2 and type: kate ~/.kde/share/config/plasma-appletsrc

    (Backup before you edit)

    add there:
    [AppletGlobals][plasma_applet_systemtray]
    ShowJobs=false
    ShowNotifications=false
    save and exit kate.

    In the konsole:
    Code:
    plasma
    Before you edit, BACKUP !
