TDE adding MTP support
by deloptes 22 Dec '20

22 Dec '20

Hi, looking into how to add MTP some questions arise 1. Why is there the usb.ids file in core/tdebase/kcontrol/usbview/usb.ids Why is the file so outdated - actually has no revision, but compared to /var/lib/usbutils/usb.ids which is part of package usb.ids Why not using the officially maintained usb.ids file? 2. the USB ids are handled in tdelibs and tdebase. Adding MTP as separate tdeio module would impact also these, or is there a better approach? 3. as I understand the TDE library classifies the device based on some string in the usb.ids, but I am not exactly sure how it will classify one device as Camera (PTP) and another as MTP. Can someone elaborate on these questions please?

In a TDM theme's xml file, what does @@@TDEBACKGROUND@@@ point to?
by J Leslie Turriff 21 Dec '20

[Resending to Developers because I got no response from Users] I'm trying to write a custom theme file for TDM, using os_enterprise theme as an example. It contains | <greeter> | <item type="pixmap" > | <normal file="@@@TDMBACKGROUND@@@" /> | : to define the login screen's background. I've looked through the various TDE handbooks and poked around on the wiki, but nothing mentions this symbol. (In fact, the only page in the wiki that I found that discusses the internals of theme files seems to be out of date, since it talks about Theme.rc files, whereas the control file in each /opt/trinity/share/apps/tdm/themes subdirectory is an xml file. When the os_enterprise theme is active its display looks like its preview.png, even if the background.png file is different; so what is @@@TDEBACKGROUND@@@ pointing to? Leslie

Malformed URL system:/

That's the popup message I get on various installations. The current instance is 14.0.9 on Buster. It happens when I'm ready to log out. As I've mentioned before and seen nothing to be done about it, right clicking the desktop produces no response. Thus, I must goto the starter in Kicker to click. That produces $SUBJECT on the first click. Once I've disposed of the popup (that makes clicking the starter a no-op), next click of the starter produces expected result. -- Evolution as taught in public schools, like religion, is based on faith, not on science.

Two Transition Questions for Slávek please
by Mike Bird 09 Dec '20

09 Dec '20

Hi Slávek, A couple of questions for you regarding the transitions: (1) I replied to Uwe's question entitled "cannot run apt-get upgrade, mirror not found" but his question was forwarded from the old user list so I was wondering if my reply will get back to him somehow. Maybe the old list should start bouncing submissions with a "please use new list henceforth" response? (2) When I submit a semi-automatic crash report I get a warning that the certificate has expired. Does this mean they're going to old infrastructure and do you actually receive them? Thanks, --Mike
