An icon theme compatible with TDE
by Alexandre 25 Oct '15

25 Oct '15

Hi all, I just wanted to share that I found a new icon theme that is fitting and working very well with TDE. Icons are colorful and easy to understand. Maybe one day it could be packaged with TDE? Here is the download link: http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php/Masalla+Icon+Theme?content=170413 Thank you! Tell me what you think! -Alexandre

R14.0.1 upgrade issues
by Keith Daniels 30 Sep '15

30 Sep '15

I had errors when updating to R14.0.1 from the R14.0 version of trinity. In: r14-xdg-update-validation-test9.txt _____________________________________________________ The following files were listed as not being updated: kde-fsview.desktop kde-kchmviewer.desktop kde-kmag.desktop kde-ksystemlog.desktop The above DID EXIST in the directories below: ~/.local/share/applications/kde-fsview.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/kde-kchmviewer.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/kde-kmag.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/kde-ksystemlog.desktop They ALSO EXISTED under DIFFERENT names here: /opt/trinity/share/applnk/.hidden/fsview.desktop /opt/trinity/share/applnk/Applications/kmag.desktop /opt/trinity/share/applnk/kchmviewer.desktop /opt/trinity/share/applications/tde/ksystemlog.desktop /opt/trinity/share/applnk/Utilities/ksystemlog.desktop __________________________________________________________ The following files were also listed as not being updated. I searched, and none of the above files existed anywhere on the hard drive: kde-kmousetool.desktop kde-kmouth.desktop kde-ksensors.desktop kde-superkaramba.desktop Installed all of the above, and changed a setting but no *.desktop file was created when I did. All the above desktop files did exist on the hard drive but under a DIFFERENT name: /opt/trinity/share/applnk/Applications/kmousetool.desktop /opt/trinity/share/applnk/Applications/kmouth.desktop /opt/trinity/share/applnk/System/ksensors.desktop /opt/trinity/share/applnk/Utilities/superkaramba.desktop ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It looks like the problem is naming errors in the update script, and possibly install scripts as well--since the *.desktop files were not created when installed--nor when started, used and changed. What should I do now? 1 - How do I turn off the R14 update error dialog boxes that appear on boot up? 2 - Should I post this as a bug? It is a script problem (I think) not a Trinity problem. BTW Everyone, Thanks for a very good job on creating R14 and the update. Keith <http://click.email.newegg.com/?qs=5b1402a6eb6ebb789de1f93c509779ecd88738eb4…>

[trinity-devel] mirrors won't let me edit broken r14 menus
by Felix Miata 27 Sep '15

27 Sep '15

Just a few hours ago I did a fresh Jessie install followed apparently only by most of an R14 install. Now that I figured out there's a menu edit function in the menu even though there is no menu editing package installed, and kmenuedit-trinity needs to be installed, apt/aptitude can't reach pearsoncomputing.net, or apparently any other mirror. So I opened http://tde-mirror.yosemite.net/trinity/trinity-r14.0.0/debian/pool/main/k/ in browser to try to download and install it manually, only to find there is no such package as kmenuedit-trinity, at least, not on this particular mirror. Is something critical in process of being rebuilt, and I just timed my activity terribly yet again? Is there a howto somewhere how to fix a broken menu manually, moving lost & found seamonkey and firefox entries where they belong (in internet browsers)? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

New GIT mirror
by Slávek Banko 26 Sep '15

26 Sep '15

Hi all, on knowledge is given, we prepared together with Tim read-only mirror of the git repositories. Links for git repositories on the website now go to the mirror. Your local git clones you can redirect to the mirror: http://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/ CGIT interface on the primary server remains available at the original address - in the menu is given as Secure GIT (allows access through SSL). On the mirror is also available list of patches - commit history, which is maintained in sync with mirror of git repositories: http://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/patches/ Enjoy the new speed of CGIT interface :) -- Slávek

Bug 1998 - systemd - user session tracking/multiseat implementation required
by David C. Rankin 22 Sep '15

22 Sep '15

Tim, Slavek, Darrell, All, (whoever is left?) I've checked from time to time to see if http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=1998 has been resolved to crank up my Arch build system again. When we left, the problem was TDE did not provide user session tracking or a multi-seat implementation for a pure-systemd environment (without ConsoleKit). This resulted in applications being launched, but never terminated after they had been closed by the user. Can anyone confirm correct behavior of TDE in a pure-systemd setting w/o ConsoleKit? Even without multi-seat, it is worth building TDE if the issue described in bug 1998 has been resolved. What says the brain trust? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

[Fwd: Re: [trinity-users] Odd ssh -Y problem. A TDEism?]

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA224 Forwarding here to get other developer input on this. There is a long-standing issue with TDE and certain old X11 applications that try to read the xrdb color control file.

[trinity-devel] bad repo configuration instructions for 32 bit openSUSE
by Felix Miata 10 Sep '15

10 Sep '15

Most times in recent months when I've needed to access TDE repos for openSUSE, the package manager has claimed the server is inaccessible, so I scrapped the idea of either installing or upgrading TDE at those times. Today: # zypper ref ... Retrieving repository 'Packman' metadata .....................................................................................[done] Building repository 'Packman' cache ..........................................................................................[done] File '/repodata/repomd.xml' not found on medium 'http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/rpm/opensuse13.2…' Abort, retry, ignore? [a/r/i/? shows all options] (a): This was the content of my last configured TDE.repo file on 13.2 host gx780 running r14.0.0 (likely non-working when previously tried): [TDE] enabled=1 autorefresh=1 baseurl=http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/rpm/open… type=yum It was initially created by following the instructions on https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/OpenSUSEInstall. Changing types today to i586 and rpm-md got it working. That page's instructions include uname -i, which results in the non-functional string i386 in the baseurl. I know it's a wiki, but what to change the instructions to say instead I don't know. This is the content of my currently working TDE.repo and TDEnoarch files: **** [TDE] autorefresh=1 baseurl=http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/rpm/open… enabled=1 gpgcheck=0 keeppackages=0 name=TDE type=rpm-md **** [TDEnoarch] autorefresh=1 baseurl=http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/rpm/open… enabled=1 gpgcheck=0 keeppackages=0 name=TDEnoarch type=rpm-md **** Configuring repos in openSUSE can be as simple as copying those files into or out of /etc/zypp/repos.d/, or changing names of files there, or editing their content with plain text editor, all of which I prefer to zypper ar/rr or managing via YaST2. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

No TDE R14.0.1 news on news feeds
by Alexandre 07 Sep '15

07 Sep '15

Hi all, By looking at the Linux news feeds in Akregator, I saw no news about the release of TDE R14.0.1. I would like to know if anyone has contacted them to let them know about the new release? Is is important, because it might bring new devs, more users and possibly more donations too. Have a great day! -Alexandre

x86 builders status
by Timothy Pearson 03 Sep '15

03 Sep '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA224 All, Just wanted to let you know that the x86 builders are down while I try to free up some additional disk space. Other architectures are still building normally. The build farm needs a disk space upgrade to handle additional distributions (e.g. Debian Stretch) but I am not able to personally fund one at this time. Help in the form of donations toward TDE's infrastructure costs is appreciated as always. :-) Thanks!
