Is there any place where I can find the updated packaging files for building TDE for Debian/Jessie, other than extracting those from each package in the nightly build website? Thanks again Michele

Setting power state using tdehwlib dbus daemon
by Slávek Banko 23 Aug '13

23 Aug '13

Hello, we have recently added backends for setting power state using HAL and DeviceKit-Power. Now I have prepared another backend - using tdehwlib dbus daemon. The advantage is that it would not need any other external dependency. See bug report: http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=1643 What do you think? Slavek

I did not read your posts that way. :-) I realize English is not the native language of many people. I try to read posts with the benefit of doubt. I try to read posts with the presumption that people are trying to improve existing conditions too. I agree a discussion is relevant and important. Now that a discussion is started, let's see how things unfold. :-) Darrell

Sorry about that. I have been staring at the typo for five minutes and scratching my head. I have no idea how that happened or how I was able to compile with the typo. Darrell

This is interesting. The kdialog passive popups are once again appearing on top of xbmc. Same xbmc package as I had before so something else changed in Trinity within the past 4 months, or possibly in my configurations, although with the htpc I seldom tinker with that. I wonder what fixed the problem.... Oh well, nice to see thenm working again! :-) Darrell

Re: [trinity-devel] /tmp/tdesocket-global
by Darrell Anderson 17 Aug '13

17 Aug '13

>I believe that this is exactly what I pointed out earlier: >http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::11083 Yes. I remember. The culprit is the desktop lock process. When I reboot my systems my shutdown scripts remove garbage and spurious files and cleans /tmp. When I then first log into Trinity /tmp/tdesocket-global does not yet exist. Invoking the desktop lock creates /tmp/tdesocket- global. I understand a process like TDM using /tmp/tdesocket-global, but seems to me user-spawned processes such as desktop locking should use $TDEHOME/socket-`uname -n`. Bug report 1633 filed. Darrell

/tmp/tdesocket-global
by Darrell Anderson 17 Aug '13

17 Aug '13

We raised this observation in past discussions and bug reports. I am not using TDM. I start X from the command line with startx. Yet I see /tmp/tdesocket-global being created with the login user having full ownership to the directory. The logged-in user can view the contents of the directory, which is always empty. Why is the /tmp/tdeglobal-socket directory being created when TDM is not being used? What global socket connections are required when Trinity is run without TDM or in run level 3? Darrell

Help handbook support for tdepowersave/kpowersave
by Darrell Anderson 17 Aug '13

17 Aug '13

In commit 071d5a84 I pushed a patch to restore the Help handbook for TDEPowersave. Apparently those files got lost in the shuffle when converting to cmake. I presume the same changes are needed for KPowersave, but I don't have a HAL based system to compile KPowersave. To somebody who does and is interested in restoring the Help handbook to KPowersave, you should be able to copy the patch, modify for naming differences, and then push to git. Darrell
