tdm login graphic is old XDG login instead of new gradient tde style

by David C. Rankin

Tim, Darrell, After removing 3.5.12 from a box and installing R14, the tdm login screen is the old boxy style XDG login instead of the new gradient style tde login. The background is the correct isadora wallpaper, but the 'Login to TDE' part in the middle is not the cool TDE login I've had with all previous installs. Did something with the graphics change in tdebase? I really liked the old one and the new graphic is -- well -- terrible. Here is what I got with the new R14 install (it's a picture of the monitor): http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/dt/trinity/ss/tdm-old.jpg Here is what I got with earlier tde R14 installs (this one 3/12/12): http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/dt/trinity/ss/tdm-no-session.jpg I can't figure out what would have caused this to change unless something in the GIT tree changed. I have no idea what graphic to look for. Any ideas? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Command to switch Q* to TQ*?

by Robert Xu

Hi all, Anyone have a handy sed command or similar to switch Q* to TQ* in patch files? I'm attempting to find the easiest way out before having to modify one by one individually. -- later daze. :: Robert Xu :: protocol.by/rxu

3.5.13-sru - New commits to cherrypick

by David C. Rankin

Slavek, There are a couple of useful CMake commits that need to be cherrypicked for 3.5.13-sru. The first is in tdebase: tdebase/kioslave/media/mediamanager/CMakeLists.txt include_directories( ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR} ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/kioslave/media/libmediacommon ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/kioslave/media/libmediacommon ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR} ${TDE_INCLUDE_DIR} ${TQT_INCLUDE_DIRS} ${HAL_INCLUDE_DIRS} + ${DBUS_TQT_INCLUDE_DIRS} ) There is a commit that adds ${DBUS_TQT_INCLUDE_DIRS} to the include_directories list. I'll keep a list in this thread and we can look up the commit numbers when we are done. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

3.5.13-sru Build Report - Arch

by David C. Rankin

All, Slavek, With only slight changes to the build scripts for Arch, I was able to perform a fairly successful automated end-to-end build of 3.5.13-sru using the same build system I use for R14. tdebase required adjusting the config location name from tdm to kdm and tdebase/kioslave/media/mediamanager/CMakeLists.txt was patched to include the 'include directories' ${DBUS_TQT_INCLUDE_DIRS}. (there is already a commit for this that can be cherry-picked to sru. The list of what build on the 'first-run' is provided below along with the list of what failed. I'll tweak the failures and provide needed changes, as time permits, under (enhancement) Bug 1130 - Branch v3.5.13-sru -- Additional commits/fixes. The packages that built (on the Arch build system with gcc 4.7.1, glibc 2.16, ffmpeg 0.11-1, libpng 1.5) from the GIT tree with all modules available switched to v3.5.13-sru were: tde-arts tde-basket tde-dbus-1-tqt tde-dbus-tqt tde-digikam tde-dolphin tde-filelight tde-gtk-qt-engine tde-gwenview tde-k3b tde-kaffeine tde-katapult tde-kdiff3 tde-kima tde-kio-locate tde-kipi-plugins tde-kmplayer tde-knemo tde-knutclient tde-koffice tde-konversation tde-kpowersave tde-krusader tde-libart-lgpl tde-libcaldav tde-libcarddav tde-libkdcraw tde-libkexiv2 tde-libkipi tde-libksquirrel tde-mlt++ tde-mlt tde-qca-tls tde-qt3-3.8.8.d tde-sip tde-sip4-tqt tde-tde-style-qtcurve tde-tdeaccessibility tde-tdeaddons tde-tdeadmin tde-tdeartwork tde-tdebase tde-tdeedu tde-tdegames tde-tdegraphics tde-tdelibs tde-tdenetwork tde-tdepim tde-tdetoys tde-tdeutils tde-tqtinterface tde-twin-style-crystal tde-wlassistant The packages that failed and will need to be checked were: tdebindings v3.5.13-sru tdemultimedia v3.5.13-sru tdevelop v3.5.13-sru tdewebdev v3.5.13-sru abakus amarok v3.5.13-sru kgtk-qt3 rosegarden v3.5.13-sru tdesvn v3.5.13-sru yakuake soundkonverter ksplash-engine-moodin krename k9copy v3.5.13-sru kchmviewer v3.5.13-sru kdirstat tdmtheme kbarcode kbfx v3.5.13-sru (failure expected) kbookreader knetstats knetload kstreamripper tdesdk v3.5.13-sru I'll look through the logs, to find out what went wrong with the v3.5.13-sru packages. It is likely a build script tweak or quick CMakeList patch is all that will be required. (those packages with no branch listed above were attempted from 'master') -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

bug (kmenu->Settings->Control Center) doesn't work

by David C. Rankin

Tim, Darrell, All, Quick update. I removed 3.5.12 and replaced it with R 14.0.0 on one of my boxes. (configured with tmd as the DM) Everything launched fine. (though the default tdm theme had the ugly XDG login instead of the normal tde gradient one) All has worked really well. However, I did hit a bug right off the bat. After configuring panels (menu checkbox to show settings submenu in kmenu) I tried to launch kcontrol from kmenu->Settings->Control Center -- Nothing happened. I ended up having to launch it with Alt+F2 -> kcontrol. Has this been seen before? If not, I'll file it, but it seems I remember this supposedly being 'fixed' already. This is from last nights build. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

3.5.13-sru - No quick build - Several build issues

by David C. Rankin

All, Slavek, I like the idea of having 3.5.13 as a primary desktop to work from while R14 settles down. I have created tarballs from 3.5.13-sry, but I have run into several build problems. Currently I have successfully built: tde-arts-3.5.13_sru-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz tde-dbus-1-tqt-3.5.13_sru-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz tde-dbus-tqt-3.5.13_sru-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz tde-libart-lgpl-3.5.13_sru-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz tde-libcaldav-3.5.13_sru-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz tde-libcarddav-3.5.13_sru-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz tde-qca-tls-3.5.13_sru-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz tde-qt3-3.8.8.d_git-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz tde-sip-3.5.13_sru-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz tde-sip4-tqt-3.5.13_sru-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz tde-tqtinterface-3.5.13_sru-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz The packages I'm struggling with are: avahi-tqt: The issue is the same as Nix brought up in: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.desktop.trinity.devel/6373 The build fails with: make[2]: Entering directory `/build/src/avahi-tqt/avahi-tqt' GEN qt-watch.moc3 Qt meta object compiler moc: Too many input files specified Usage: moc [options] <header-file> -o file Write output to file rather than stdout -f[file] Force #include, optional file name -p path Path prefix for included file -i Do not generate an #include statement -k Do not stop on errors -nw Do not display warnings -v Display version of moc make[2]: *** [qt-watch.moc3] Error 1 The problem is the build cannot find moc-tqt in /usr/bin/moc-tqt. I thought this was resolved, but I can't recall how. The issue was created by installing tqtinterface in /usr while the rest of Qt and TDE went in /opt. I'll play with it. Any ideas, let me know :) python-tqt: Build fails due to: Error: The TQt version number could not be determined by parsing /opt/qt3/include/qglobal.h. The problem is caused by configure.py looking for TQt and TQT_VERSION instead of QT_VERSION even though the configure.py script correctly determined that /opt/qt3/include/qglobal.h was the correct file. I will try patching this, but shouldn't configure.py be smart enough to know to look for Qt/QT_VERSION when the include is /opt/qt3/include/qglobal.h? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Updating profiles when updating to R14

by Darrell Anderson

We don't have a mechanism to update existing Trinity profiles when updating to R14. For the most part Trinity 3.5.11->3.5.13 profiles essentially are KDE3 profiles. Although the r14-xdg-update script will run automatically for users the first time they run the R14 starttde script, some profile breakage is likely to remain with older config files because the r14-xdg-update script is limited in scope to XDG changes. I suspect more than a few Trinity users are using 3.5.12 and we should ensure their R14 updating experience "just works." 1. How should we detect older profiles? Possibly by looking for the existence of $TDEHOME/share/config twin_update, twinrc, or tdeprintrc? Any other reliable methods? 2. How should we help users update their profiles? Doing so transparently often is best. Possibly the migratekde3 script can accommodate post 3.5.10 profiles although originally I never considered anything other than 3.5.10. Do any users have experience migrating existing profiles from 3.5.x to R14? What were those experiences like? Ideas? Thoughts? Darrell

Howto Stop Virtual Keyboard Autostart R14

by drankinatty

All, When tde launches, the virtual keyboard icon is always in the systray. Where do I turn this off so it does NOT start on login? Here is a screenshot of the annoying bugger: http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/dt/trinity/ss/virtual-keyboard-autostart.jpg What say the masters?

tqca-tls (3.5.13-sru) cmake looking for libtqt-mt.so.3

by David C. Rankin

Slavek, I know there isn't a 3.5.13-sru branch for tqca-tls. I'll look at creating a patch. Currently there is an error where it is looking for libtqt-mt.so.3 instead of libqt-mt.so.3 When there is NO 3.5.13-sru branch for a module (like tqca-tls), does this mean you are still using the 3.5.13 tarball for the module and not the current GIT tree? For those that know cmake, what would I have to change to fix this? Can it be done as a conditional to look for either Qt3 or TQt3 libs like we were doing in the Jan.-Feb. timeframe when TDE could still build on QT3?? The error is: ==> Starting configure... Configuring qca-tls ... Verifying TQt 3.x Multithreaded (MT) build environment ... fail There was an error compiling 'conf'. Be sure you have a proper TQt 3.x Multithreaded (MT) build environment set up. One possible reason is that you don't have libtqt-mt.so.3 installed in /opt/qt3/lib/ or /opt/qt3/lib64/. ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build(). Aborting... -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
