[fedora] fixme fixme fixme
by Felix Miata 21 Sep '23

21 Sep '23

Attached tdm.log is from Fedora 39. In past several years through last spring, I've had nominal trouble running the TDE for latest release on whatever release is upcoming, in this case, F38>F39. This one on Kaby Lake host ab250 won't more than pretend to start a TDE session either from startx or TDM. Attempting to start one brings some screen flashing, then TDM returns. Selecting IceWM session instead of TDE produces same result. I find no clues to session failure in journal, dmesg, Xorg.X.log or .xsession-errors, while tdm.log grows from 0 to nearly 40k from just starting, before any attempt to login. An unlogged clue may be seen in session type selection: no matter what is selected for current session (attempt), on the next return to session selection, "previous" remains where it was before the upgrade from F38 to F39, on the second of the two TDEs, right above failsafe. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.

Crash Handler can never send crash reports to Trinity
by J Leslie Turriff 12 Sep '23

12 Sep '23

This has been an irritation for a long time, but various components of TDE are crashing more and more frequently on my machine, and the Crash Handler is never able to send its reports to you. I have attached what the Crash Handler says whenever I try. Has this method of reporting failures become obsolete? If so, why is the code still there, misleading users who try to report failures?

Adding portals.conf(5) to desktop environments
by Mike Bird 08 Sep '23

I don't know enough about TDE development to know if you TDE developers need to be aware of this but I thought I should post it here just in case. https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2023/08/msg00311.html Thanks for all you do! --Mike

Code to list Konqueror windows and tabs
by Ran Talbott 22 Aug '23

22 Aug '23

One of my hobbies is online debating on a variety of subjects. I have separate directories for many topics with downloaded data, notes, etc. I also usually have multiple programming projects active, most with their own directories. I prefer to keep tabs open for active topics and projects, rather than constantly closing them and re-navigating as I change focus. For Firefox, I have a Python program that can list all open windows and tabs, or find the window that has a particular tab. I'd like to do the same thing for Konqueror. Is there a system call (preferably with a Python API, but I have experience in lots of languages) that will give me a list of Konqueror windows and tabs? Also, is there an API for a list of Konsole windows? I'd like to do a command that would grep the window list and pop up the relevant window. Thanks, Ran

Re: OpenOffice 4 wants gtk2-tqt-engine
by J Leslie Turriff 27 Jul '23

27 Jul '23

Hi, I'm forwarding this from the Users list as Mike suggested. It's a side-issue to my attempt to debug an OpenOffice problem, but it would be nice to know why some TDE components try to write to /etc/tqt3/tqt_plugins_3.5rc.tmp, which of course is not writable by non-root accounts?

Unmet deps in koffice
by deloptes 16 Jul '23

16 Jul '23

Hi Michele, so here is one example - applications/office/koffice It depends on liblcms1-dev but liblcms2-dev is in bookworm liblcms1 from edeps does not compile because of other dependencies Setting the control file to liblcms1-dev | liblcms2-dev resolved the dependency issue but it failed in the process. -- FCD6 3719 0FFB F1BF 38EA 4727 5348 5F1F DCFE BCB0

TQT3 ubuntu instead of debian packages
by deloptes 15 Jul '23

15 Jul '23

Hi, preparing my own debian repo for bookworm, I started building and noticed tqt3 is creating ubuntu packages. Seams to be fault in the changelog. I think to remember that I saw someone copied over some files and now we have this entry tqt-x11-free (3:3.3.8-d-0ubuntu0) maverick; urgency=low It is so minor issue, but if you want a bug report, let me know.

[SUSE/rpm] unhappy dependencies
by Felix Miata 14 Jul '23

14 Jul '23

# grep yReq /etc/zypp/zypp.conf solver.onlyRequires = true # To a nice lightweight LXQt openSUSE Leap 15.4, I tried to add 4 TDE packages: # zypper -v in trinity-tdm trinity-konsole trinity-ksnapshot trinity-kcalc Among the unexpected inclusions: audiofile *avahi* cryptsetup gptfdisk libaspell15 libatasmart4 libatasmart-utils libaudiofile libbd_utils2 libbytesize1 libblockdev2 libbd_swap2 libbd_part2 libbd_loop2 libbd_fs2 libbd_crypto2 libbd_mdraid2 libbd_lvm2 libblockdev libimobiledevice* *lvm2* https://paste.opensuse.org/ea4d1bd3c68f is the whole zypper lxqt/tde session log. It includes the breeze and oxygen pollution from LXQt that I removed before adding the 4 selected TDE packages. Even worse, when I tried to undo: # zypper -v rm --clean-deps trinity-tdm trinity-konsole trinity-ksnapshot trinity-kcalc It only proposed to remove about 60% of what it had just installed, basically leaving installed most of the unexpected stuff I listed above. Apparently I need to find time to replicate this with Bookworm, to see if deb/apt dependencies seem more rational. :p -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.

TDE Crash Handler can't send reports
by J Leslie Turriff 08 Jul '23

08 Jul '23

Since upgrading to R14.1.0 several issues have triggered the TDE Crash Handler, but it always tells me that it can't send its report. It provides no details, e.g. the protocol it uses, and I can't find any documentation for the Crash Handler, so I have no idea how to debug it. I don't recognize anything associated with the crashes in /var/log/messages, and there is no /var/log/{trinity|tde}. I have attached a snapshot showing what little it tells me. (Pre-R14.1.0 I have experienced occasional Crash events, but now they are more frequent.)
