Hi!
I'm using GCompris 0.81-Windows 32bit-No OpenGL with a few laptops having Windows 7 SP1 and sometimes (maybe once every 5-10 times) in some laptops (not all of them) after I launch the application and while the 4 big circular buttons in the bottom left corner are animating to get their final position, GCompris Qt crashes with a message from Windows "GCompris.exe stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem...". This is the only info that Windows provides. If I can help you in any other way, please let me know.

Reproduced in the desktop version.
Steps to reproduce:
1/ click on any activity
2/ click on the gcompris "home" button
3/ click on any activity again
4/ click on the gcompris "home" button

=> the application is quiting immediately

The README mentions a README.translators, but this file is nowhere
to find in the source directory.

Hi!
I'm curious about your announcement about the full version becoming free. The date in the Windows installers is still December 1st 2019 : https://gcompris.net/download/qt/windows/?C=M;O=D
I'm hesitant to re-download and test it. Maybe it's a stupid question, but is the announcement yours or were you... hacked? I just want to be sure that the installers are not compromised.

Sometimes fish doesn't turh around when it approaches right side of screen, then it swims backward to left, and when it approaches left side of screen it stops moving along X axis and begins to sink until it hides behind "Menu" button and becomes unreachable.
Unfortunately i didn't see this mistake in src/activities/clickgame/Fish.qml at first sight.

Hello,

when playing memory(-tux), there is no time delay after the user rotated the second card. Immediately after the second card has been flipped Tux starts or, in case of single player, the next round starts.

The time delay should be about as long as between Tux' second card and the user's next round.

I can't find Gcompris when searching on Google Play Store, and when i access directly using direct link i have the following message "This item is not available in your country".

I m searching from Morocco

I would like to sync the configuration across devices, but it seems like cachePath and userDataPath only work with absolute paths, or am I missing something?

I'm on Ubuntu 18.04 and have installed GCompris 0.81 based on QT 5.9.5 using apt. The Gnumch game does not have any sounds, and in particular, the little green guy does not say "yummy yummy".

For comparison I've apt install-ed GCompris version 13.11 on Ubuntu 14.04. In that version the Gnumch game has sounds, and the little green guy says "yummy yummy" every time he eats a number. I believe this sound effect is driven by the file:

/usr/share/gcompris/boards/sounds/eat.wav

This file is not present in the newer version of GCompris, nor is the directory structure, so I have no idea where I would add it if it was missing. I've also tried installing gstreamer good and bad plugin libraries (as well as brasero, just to make sure I have all of the gstreamer stuff). That doesn't seem to help. My kid really wants this sound effect. What can I do?

EDIT:
I should have added that other sounds seem to work just fine. Sound is only missing in the Gnumch game.

Hi,
I was wonder if you can document how to build this software with CLI only.
It seems to me odd that I need to build qtcreator just to build this software. Is there no way to export this to a normal CMAKE work flow?

In 0.95 and 0.96 when using "build the same model" with greek language I get empty squares. With english language I get english letters. Also, the arrow buttons and the crane appear distorted when the screen resolution is not wide (in my case 1280x1024). Version 0.91 doesn't have these issues (I get english letters with greek language and no distortion). Please see folllowing pictures:

0.96, greek language, 1280x1024

0.96, greek language, 1366x768

0.91, greek language, 1280x1024

I have successfully installed gcompris-qt on arch linux arm.

I am not working with PulseAudio.
I have sound working on youtube and with VLC.

I start gcompris-qt -s with sound explicitly enabled, but I have no sounds. When it starts
I hear a few clicks, but after that there is no sound. Here is the log message:

Using GCompris 0.97, the latest available on F-Droid, trying to download external assets results on "Download error (code: 99): TLS initialization failed".

I see https://www.gcompris.net/downloads-en.html says

WARNING: For Android version 4.4.2, it is recommended to directly download and install manually GCompris version 0.95 from our website, as the version 0.96 from the Play Store will not be able to download external assets with this Android version.

but it seems to be unrelated.
The system is using Fire OS 5.6.8.0, which according to https://developer.amazon.com/apps-and-games/fire-tablets is based on Android 5.1 (API level 22).

By the way, is it not possible to publish it in the Amazon App Store?

On page 37 of https://conf.kde.org/system/attachments/94/original/TimotheeGiet-GCompris-Akademy2017.pdf it says

Help creating an appimage

In about section, " Copyright 2000-2020 Timothée Giet and Others" is not updated.

Windows installer doesn't create a desktop shortcut. Preferably, it should create one in public desktop for all users.

What happened to the --profile flag described in the documentation? It seems like there is no multi profile functionality anymore.

EDIT: I meant this part of the manual: https://gcompris.net/wiki/Manual#Profile_creation

Here are other possible improvements:

explore_farm_animals:

• it could be possible to skip the first stage where you have to click each animal and get directly to the sound question and the quiz

simplepaint:

• it is not immediately clear that the top light blue color is the eraser, could be a eraser icon :)
• it is not immediately clear that there are other colors (no scroll bar, arrow, etc.)

maze:

• in the high levels of the maze (e.g. 25) Tux walks long (random?) distances if clicking somewhere out of reach. Is this a feature?

melody:

• it is a bit strange that the sound right before the melody to remember is someone hitting all bars up and down. could instead be a visual baton (conducting) or that knock knock knock when a conductor is asking for attention right before a song hitting is desk with the baton.

The button is disabled.

Hello,

I have sucessfully build Gcompris-qt under macOS, following the instructions from https://www.ynonperek.com/2017/09/18/building-gcompris-qt-on-macos/.

I now just have an issue with translation. After setting the language to French (locale=fr_FR.UTF-8 in ~/Library/Preferences/gcompris/gcompris-qt.conf) I have the following message while starting GCompris from Terminal:

$ Contents/MacOS/gcompris-qt
Unable to load translation for locale  "fr_FR" , use en_US by default

There also seem not to have .po files in the source tree.

How can I get the relevant translation for this application?

Hello,

Hi make a windows x64 version of GCompris.

Take it here: http://dl.osames.org/

Have fun

Choosing Svenska as language in the settings renders the locale
sv_FI.UTF-8 on my system. This is not my preferred locale, I prefer
sv_SE.UTF-8.

Either set the default Swedish language to use sv_SE.UTF-8 or, better,
include both sv_SE.UTF-8 and sv_FI.UTF-8.

Hello,
I am maintainer for Void linux (the best distro IMO) and I want to create a package.
I can compile gcompris-qt from source and run the program.

BUT: the text is not displayed, as you can see in my three screenshots.
Screenshot-01
Screenshot-02
Screenshot-03

This is weird !
I also noticed this message when launching the program:
OpenType support missing for script 11

Is there a problem with the fonts ?
I hope you can help me.

Regards.

I'm using KDE Plasma 5.19.4 on Manjaro. GCompris is version 0.97.1-1
The game Enrich your vocabulary just crashes everything after clicking on it 😭

Is there a workaround?

Hi!
I have an old PC (Pentium 4 3.0GHz, Intel GMA900, 768MB DDR2-SDRAM, Windows 7 SP1 32-bit) and I installed gcompris-qt-0.80-win32-gcc.exe. Everytime I execute gcompris.exe, I see the mouse cursor turn into tux, but then it crashes with the following info:

Could it be a low memory issue? All other software I have execute normally.

I compiled from the master branch of the Github repo, and when I try to run it in QT creator, I get

Hi, I just download the latest GCompris and I can't make the sound work.

Add options for different number representations like numbers, dots, romans etc on dices.

Open Clickgame activity,
Wait for fishes to appear,
Increase window size,
Wait until fishes should rotate,
At one point, some fishes are not moving anymore.

Just installed version 1.1 64bit on Windows7 64bit PC.

But most of the activities are unusable, and are unusable the configuration page too, because seems that GCmopris choose the wrong font.
Screenshot attached.

Tried normal and 'Safe' mode, same behaviour.

Thanks.

I have installed GCompris for my kids on my Debian (from Debian repo - v 1.0.1), however when I launch it starts to behave strangely and begins the screen flicker when I move my mouse around the options.

2 of my Debian systems are affected (both stable, with xfce)

Has anyone got an idea what package, settings may I be missing? It may be connected to the QT setup of my system, but I am noob and unsure. I have a video shot about the error, can mail it, if helps.

hi

how do you sync between github and kde.
I work in the breeze icons and our working dic is github
but the sync is boring

thanks

On a 1920x1080 landscape screen, Watercycle is broken in 2.3 and 2.2, sometime after 2.1. No amount of clicking will cause the clouds to rain. The screen is split in half between game and text. Thought problem had something to do with isVertical or textOnSide, but have not found a solution.

The sound of the letter "e" in French alphabet corresponds more to an "o" as "réseau" than to an "e" as "voeu"

I'm opening an issue here because I have tried to get sound working and for whatever reason it doesn't seem to respect system settings.

The issue the spoken instructions only will play though the HDMI audio and not over the headphone output even if headphone output is set as preferred. Additionally disabling the onboard sound device and only having an external sound device gives a similar result.

Sound effects still play on the preferred device so any game like the fish aquarium the bubble sounds and popping effects still work.

This is a Pi3 with Raspberry Pi OS Buster this issue is present in the 0.95-1 version from the repository and the version 1 beta available for download.

I have tested this also on a Raspberry Pi 4 the spoken instructions play over HDMI and sound effects play over headphones this is with preferred sound output to the headphone jack otherwise HDMI seems to always play back I haven't tested the external only option on the pi 4
Additionally I've only tested 0.95-1 on the Pi 4

There are no error messages generated while running.

I get black boxes instead of buttons, both with master and 1.0-1 in Ubuntu 21.04.

I am using intel-media-va-driver-non-free:amd64 21.1.1+ds1-1 (cf #267)

Happy to compile experimental branches and provide more debugging info.

Hi,

I'm investigating if somewhat I could contribute to your project.

I read carefully http://gcompris.net/wiki/An_exercise_for_new_contributors

I cloned and have now commit ae68ab7

Problem comes from in the wiki it is said:
"Start QtCreator and open the project file GCompris.pro at the root of the source code"

But I cannot find this file in the repo.
I see in the .gitignore a GCompris.pro.user
and issue #9 refer to a GCompris.pro
but nothing else.

I may have miss something would you mind to tell me where I can find this file?

Hello,

Roughly following https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/gcompris-devel/2018-January/005359.html and https://www.ynonperek.com/2017/09/18/building-gcompris-qt-on-macos/ I now have a working version of GCompris with translations.

However some activities don't work and yield the following error message:

qrc:/gcompris/src/activities/land_safe/LandSafe.qml:23:1: module "Box2D" is not installed

I tried to specify how to build Box2D using:

$ cmake -DQML_BOX2D_MODULE=submodule ..
$ make all
[...]
[ 11%] Built target BuildTranslations
[ 11%] Creating directories for 'qml_box2d'

[ 13%] Performing install step for 'qml_box2d'
[ 14%] Completed 'qml_box2d'
[ 14%] Built target qml_box2d
[...]

After compilation, there is a libBox2D.dylib in qml_box2d-prefix/src/qml_box2d-build under my build dir.

What step is missing to get this library in a place where it is picked up by GCompris at run-time?

I am using OSx and after I tried to compile the project via Qt-creator and CMake. The following error appears:

The C/CXX compiler identification is unknown
at line 8 of CMakeLists.txt,
No CMAKE_C/CXX_COMPILER could be found

I am pretty sure I have both clang and clang++ installed.

By now the volume keys on android are not working once the GCompris qt app has been started.

According to https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-36570 this will be fixed in qtbase in rel 5.3.
Cf. also https://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qtbase/commit/c9241a1a7baaef1fb5f61f28eea32ae75210e07d

So probably this does not need to be workarounded by us anymore.

Anyway for the archive and maybe future use I pushed a branch (android-volume) that implements a working workaround based on what was proposed in https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-36723

Bonjour,
comme professeur je dispose d'un portable (W10 PRO 15603.608) et d'un projecteur ACER (Accès WiFi).

Je souhaitais comme avec la version antérieure projeter les activités et faire participer les élèves avec une souris et un clavier sans fil.

Cependant, si l'application ne donne pas une erreur quand elle s'ouvre, je ne vois que le pointeur de la souris. Le fond du programme n'est pas projeté.

De plus, cela peut peut-être vous suggérer une piste, je dispose sur mon ordinateur d'un système d'assistance aux élèves depuis mon ordinateur (Impero Software) mais le problème est identique, je ne vois pas le programme, alors qu'il est en cous d'utilisation, dans la liste des fenêtres, et forcer le focus ne fonctionne pas.

Je me tiens à votre disposition pour toute information nécessaire à la reproduction du problème.

Note: Je ferai également une soumission au support de Impero Software pour savoir si ils ont une solution de contournement qui pourrait vous aguiller vers la source du problème

In the German version of the current version the checkers and checkers_2players are listed as chess. The correct name is "Dame".

Can I add small fixes on the translation like this one somewhere in a file in git and provide as pull requests? Or is this more complicated? :)

Hi
I am using the latest version of Linux mint and downloaded gcompris. I am trying to update text images within the program but it fails to download because of an error.
Download error (code 299) checksum of downloaded file does not match ....../.cache/KDE/gcompris-qt/data2/words/words.rcc
I hope you can help, thanks

Hello,

is it possible to start version 32 (without opengl) on x64 system or x64 without opengl ?!

Version 32 do not start on x64 and don't know how to start x64 with sofware rendering and not opengl.

Ubuntu 18.04 x64 installed on a old intel 775 socket and a gpu with 6mb.

I use this versions : https://gcompris.net/downloads-en.html

Do I have to reinstall Ubuntu version 32 on all computers or is it possible ?

Thank you in advance.

Good day GCompris community. How are you today?

I am having some issues when trying to compile the latest GCompris code on our Raspberry Pi 400s.

A couple of months ago, we were no longer able to compile GCompris on Buster due to some newer versions of dependencies being required. After updating Raspberry Pi 400s to Bullseye, we were still (initially) unable to compile the latest GCompris due to the missing qtquickcontrols2-5-private-dev package for compiling QtQuickCalendar that is required for a couple of activities.

I saw this conversation related to the same: https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00599.html

However, the package shared as a solution is not available for Debian 11 (Bullseye): https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=qtquickcontrols2-5-private-dev&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all

And the current qtquickcontrols2-5-dev dependency is only version 5.15.2+dfsg-2 on Bullseye, so I was unable to try and install any of these other experimental packages.

I played around and was able to extract the headers from these packages, copy them manually, and I was able to compile. I am not sure if every Raspberry Pi user would want to follow this same path to compile the latest and greatest GCompris version. I also don't know if I am making issues for myself in the future by copying the files in this manner.

To that end, a few questions:

1. It was mentioned in the mailinglist thread that it was possible to exclude these two activities. What is the easiest way do that for the two QtQuickCalendar activities?
2. Is there a timeframe for when the new QtQuickControls 2 will be implemented for these two activities?
3. Is there anything I can do to help with this? I am not a developer, but depending on the work that needs to be done, I may be able to help update the code.

Thank you again for all that you do.
