Uploading my remaster to trinitydesktop.org (or somewhere else)
by Alexandre 08 Oct '14

08 Oct '14

Hi everyone, The new release of my PCLinuxOS remaster is ready and I want to upload it somewhere, but I always have the same trouble at each releases: Upload websites are ''Always'' crappy and very slow, and it makes it very disagreeable to upload my remaster. Plus I don't always have access to fast and reliable internet connection. I want to know if there is a way I could upload my remaster directly to trinitydesktop.org, and if it is possible and I'm allowed to do it, how? Thank you very much! -Alexandre

Kate syntax highlighting
by Darrell 08 Oct '14

I don't know whether this is related to updating kate syntax files, the recent mime commits or something different. Opening shell scripts now often results in no syntax highlighting. Anybody else see this? Darrell

PCLinuxOS non-official TDE remaster version 2014, October 2 is ready to download!
by Alexandre 07 Oct '14

07 Oct '14

Hi everyone! My PCLinuxOS TDE non-official remaster version 2014, October 2 is ready to download! I call it non-official because it doesn't come from the PCLOS team and since it contains software coming from outside of their repos, it is also not supported by them. It only has a special ''permission to exist'' from the PCLinuxOS dev team. It is a complete system that can be used as a LiveDVD or it can be installed (from the LiveDVD). New on this release: -Fully updated PCLinuxOS 2014 base system -Based on stable TDE 3.5.13.2. It will probably be the last one to come with 3.5.13.2. -A theme switch Zenity script to let the user switch between the more modern theme I use and TDE Classic theme, to please more users. -A SuperKaramba theme pack -Kernel 3.16.xx On this LiveDVD: -Tons of TDE software and major apps like LibreOffice, Firefox and Gimp Login info (on the LiveDVD): Regular user:guest Password:guest Super user: root Password:root System requirement: A x86 computer with at least 384mb of RAM. It is a 32bit system, but it can be installed on a 64bit system too.

R14 status
by Timothy Pearson 07 Oct '14

07 Oct '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA224 All, As you are probably aware over the past 2 weeks I have been repairing the bugs blocking R14 listed in Bug 2014. At this time the vast majority have been repaired, with less than 10 remaining. As a result we are very close to R14 release. *****If you have any open bugs that you think should block R14, now is the time to add them. It will take several weeks to fully rebuild the Debian/Ubuntu archives; at the end of this process if all bugs blocking Bug 2014 are resolved we will proceed with release. Thank you to the rest of the TDE development team for keeping things going and helping with the overall bug load, especially Slavek, Michele, and Darrell!

About commits cd928d14 and dd581bd6
by Michele Calgaro 06 Oct '14

06 Oct '14

I don't understand part of these two commits. 1) moving the QuickStart and Visual Guide .desktop files from tdebase to tdeaddons, but leaving the main docbook in tdebase. IMO moving the two docbooks to tdeaddons is incorrect. Users may choose to install tdebase but not tdeaddons and in such situation (although unlikely, I concede) both guides would not be available. QuickStart and Visual Guide are basic entry points for new users, so I think we should put them back where they were before (i.e. in tdebase). 2) I don't see the logic of having an option BUILD_TUTORIALS to disable building the tutorials until they have been updated. What about most of the help handbook so? If we follow the same logic, we should disable most of them as well. I propose we remove the option and just build the tutorials, even in incompleted/not fully updated. Cheers Michele

Development Activity
by Timothy Butterworth 04 Oct '14

04 Oct '14

All, Is this project still actively maintained? It appears to have been a while since the last update. Are there any new development goals planned? Would any of you be interested in migrating this to openSUSE Open Build Service to automate the packaging and distribution for multiple distributions? https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Build_Service The reason I ask is because we have some community member in openSUSE that are intentionally using EOL versions of openSUSE to avoid KDE 4 for as long as possible. I would like to make TDE a openSUSE desktop option for them with a OBS repo. This could hopefully help all of you pick up some additional developers as well. Thanks Tim

Information about new errors for all active developers
by Slávek Banko 02 Oct '14

02 Oct '14

Hi all, on the bug 2127 happened that because of the lack of information about its existence, on the same problem we are actively working three developers simultaneously. It is a luxury that we can not afford! It could be that the information about the new bugs automatically receive all active developers? I mean, Tim, Slávek, Michele, François and Darrell. What do you think? -- Slávek
