Poll

A hypothetical poll for users here.... If TDE were to close down, which desktop would you use instead? You would be allowed to abandon Linux entirely in this scenario. ;-) Please state why you have not already switched; i.e. what item are missing or suboptimal in the other environment. I am curious as to why TDE still exists and need some concrete examples to fall back on to counter detractors. Thanks! Tim

Stop it. Stop it. STOP IT.
by Robert Xu 13 Feb '12

Can we keep negativity to a minimum and find bugs to fix? Thanks. One KDE developer/user's attitude does not represent the KDE community as a whole (however influential). Likewise, one TDE dev/user's attitude doesn't represent the Trinity community as a whole. So please, can we get along? *(This is why I try not to participate in threads that could possibly turn negative :|) tl;dr: shut up, let feuds die, get along in peace. don't judge a book by its cover. -- later daze. :: Robert Xu :: protocol.by/rxu

tdesdk - cmake port completed
by Serghei Amelian 13 Feb '12

13 Feb '12

Finally, tdesdk is completely buildable with cmake. Let me know if I missed something. PS Do not forget to use latest qt3 version, otherwise "kompare" will fail. -- Serghei.

Re: [trinity-users] Poll >> Troll Fest

Re-send. Sent several hours ago 'from' the wrong email addy... On Sat, 11 Feb 2012, Timothy Pearson wrote: >A hypothetical poll for users here.... I was waiting to reply until a few other responses had come through. Sometimes I need to others' comments to take note of: "Hey! That is important to me, too." However, this "Poll" topic has turned into a Troll Fest -- just like so many other posting in "users" and "developers". Especially "developers"!! Why!!!! There would be FAR MORE PROGRESS in the continued development of Trinity if the developers did not treat trinity-devel(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net as a chat room where they felt compelled to response to each and every troll! Update your killfiles! Good grief, I have! But I'm forced to slog through all the follow-on replies to the nonsense . KDE4 should simply be OFF TOPIC -- along with prostate problems, hemorrhoid afflictions, and microsoft business practices, etc., usw. I would like to see the developers cranking out code and updates, and NOT cranking out Troll bombs. Anyway, that's _my_ opinion... Maybe, once I've calmed down, I'll respond On Topic to Tim's Poll inquiry. sigh...

Tim, Take note, there is some familiar and fantastic talent on trinity-devel today. Glad to see you all. Thanks Larry! -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Trinity qt4 port?
by Pawel Soltys 13 Feb '12

13 Feb '12

This should be cleared. Are we going to port trinity to qt4 or don't. There are users in the IRC channel who ask about this, and I don't really know how to respond, since it isn't clear to myself. For what I understood: we won't port trinity to Qt4, we will add possibility of using qt3 and qt4 together. Is this correct?

KControl and the confusing mess it has become.
by Calvin Morrison 13 Feb '12

13 Feb '12

Hi. I'd like to undergo an effort to cleanup and reorganize all of our kcm modules. Over time there have been features added which are placed in the wrong section, other times things have been done inefficiently or made to be overly complicated. I think an "audit" of our modules would be good, from a user perspective. This weekend I tried KDE4.0 and like Trinity it is plagued with this same confusion. I hadn't noticed it in trinity because I am so used to it, growing used to it over time. Trying to configure kde4.0 left me with confusion most users will feel with KDE3/Trinity. Our control system isn't laid out very effectively. I am going to open an etherpad for this. I would also like any users/developers to respond to this email with anything they find to be weird/out of place. I'll start: the Kicker configure screen, underneath appearance has an "advanced options" button. There is nothing advanced about these options and it should be more clearly organized. Lets try and sort this out! Calvin Morrison

Can't run kompare
by Darrell Anderson 13 Feb '12

13 Feb '12

I'm using a GIT version of TDE. When I try to run kompare I receive the following dialog: "Could not load our KompareViewPart." X session output: The Trinity ltdl loader was unable to dlopen() the shared library '/opt/trinity/lib/trinity/libkomparepart.so' : '/opt/trinity/lib/trinity/libkomparepart.so: undefined symbol: _ZTI15QSplitterHandle' The Trinity ltdl loader was unable to dlopen() the shared library '/opt/trinity/lib/trinity/libkomparepart.so' : '/opt/trinity/lib/trinity/libkomparepart.so: undefined symbol: _ZTI15QSplitterHandle' I rebuilt the tdesdk package to no avail. Ideas? Darrell

kstartperf (tdesdk)
by Darrell Anderson 12 Feb '12

12 Feb '12

While troubleshooting why I no longer can use kompare built from GIT, I ran across this in my configure output: checking if kstartperf should be compiled... no Curious, I discovered that building the app is disabled in the tdesdk root configure.in.in through the DO_NOT_COMPILE variable. A little more searching revealed that this has been the default since 3.5.10. Curious, I disabled that command and kstartperf built. But doesn't run. For example: kstartperf kedit kedit: symbol lookup error: /opt/trinity/lib/libkstartperf.so.1.0.0: undefined symbol: lt_dlopen 1. Although kstartperf is a simple program, is there a reason why this app is not built by default (a carryover from the KDE days)? 2. Seems I might have discovered another bug with building tdesdk. Seems ltdl is missing from the linking process. I suspect if we solve either run-time bug we solve both. Darrell
