Qt5
by Julius Schwartzenberg 14 Oct '16

14 Oct '16

Hi, I'm just wondering whether someone has looked at/considered using Qt5 with Trinity. There was an article recently from the LXQt people which was quite positive about its memory usage: https://blog.lxde.org/?p=1364 I'm aware that there have been concerns that Qt4 (so maybe Qt5 too?) has significant dependencies on having a fast GPU to get performance while Qt3/TQt will work much better when a GPU is not available. Best regards, Julius

I don't see anything like it existing on bugs.pearsoncomputing.net. Does this need to have a bug filed? http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/KDE/tdeFFgtk3colorsInverted201610-108.jpg -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

recompiling and installing tdebase from git
by deloptes 27 Sep '16

27 Sep '16

Hi again, I recently had more time to work on TDE (as you have noticed) and I have rebuild and installed tdebase and tdelibs from git. tdepowersave crashed, so I installed (download from git, rebuild package etc). My question is after tdebase and tdelibs are being compiled from git, should I recompile other packeges ... or all? What are the pros and cons? I do not want to risk too much - if risk is high I would think of building dedicated environment. What is your experience and way of doing things? Is there a good practice guide? thanks

tdenetworkmananger stops to display the «connect» icon
by Uwe Brauer 24 Sep '16

Hi I asked that already on the user list but did not did not receive any answer or solution. Tdenetworkmananger connects but does not display the nm_signal_100.png or similar I purged and reinstalled network-manager-tde without success This is really annoying (but better than tdenetworkmanager would not connect) Any ideas how to solve this.

Some toughts about knotes
by deloptes 22 Sep '16

22 Sep '16

Hi, I would like to have your opinion on knotes. Perhaps someone of you has background knowledge why some decisions were taken (or not). While reviewing the syncevolution backend (I will upload it to syncevolution sometime soon), I started digging deeper into knotes. I first opened https://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2688 for the libkcal, and then noticed that knotes uses libkcal Journal (internally), while externally a knotes interface is exposed. The question is (I did not look too deep) if there is a way to skip the dcop interface and access the libkcal functions directly. So far I have seen is that the header files are not exposed. So how would one access the ressource assigned to knotes? I'll upload the code now with the dcop interface for notes and later change, when I have come to a better conclusion, but there are definitely advantages in using the libkcal directly and consequently perhaps it is worth thinking of some sort of unification For example I have in the source tdepim/libkcal/resourcelocalconfig.h tdepim/knotes/resourcelocalconfig.h but only the former is exposed in the include directory: /opt/trinity/include/libkcal/resourcelocalconfig.h Actually it is only libkcal in the tdepim1 dev. The last question is why Journal is not visible as notes and notes are not visible as journal in kontacts. I can imagine they are based on different logic, but still I believe it won't hurt if all of that gets unified somehow. Thanks in advance. regards

bug 1923
by deloptes 21 Sep '16

21 Sep '16

Hi, I solved the build problem, but I had to manually copy tdepassivepopupstack.h tdecryptographiccarddevice.h from tdelibs in /opt/trinity/include/ in order to build. When I try building the deb packages I get following error dh_install -ptdebase-runtime-data-common-trinity cp: cannot stat ‘./debian/tmp/opt/trinity/share/autostart/khotkeys.desktop’: No such file or directory dh_install: cp -a ./debian/tmp/opt/trinity/share/autostart/khotkeys.desktop debian/tdebase-runtime-data-common-trinity//opt/trinity/share/autostart/ returned exit code 1 Why? Any idea? I also get warning for missing dev packages and trying to work around this with -d thanks

Monitoring dcop messages
by Michael Kohne 20 Sep '16

20 Sep '16

I'd like to log all dcop traffic to/from a particular application (or frankly, for the whole system if that's easier). I'm trying to understand some code I've inherited, and knowing what it's doing with dcop (if anything) would be helpful. Thanks for any pointers.

New FTBFS with GCC 6 and C++11 dialect
by Slávek Banko 19 Aug '16

19 Aug '16

Hi all, I noticed during current builgs, on Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety) and now also on Debian 9 (Stretch) was changed the default compiler to GCC6. This brings the number of new FTBFS. That's why I started to concentrate on these FTBFS. Note - for this reason the packages for Yakkety in Preliminary Stable Builds are now inconsistent. As a first, of course, I started with tdelibs. Most were simple conflict signed / unsigned char or int. However, one serious problem is here. In the 'kjs' and 'tdehtml/ecma' is used HashEntry structure that contains the item 'value' of type short int - see 'kjs/lookup.h'. Into this item was stored values DOM::NodeFilter::ShowCode::SHOW_ALL = 0xFFFFFFFF (see tdehtml/dom/dom2_traversal.h) and kjs event CHANGE with value 32768 (see tdehtml/ecma/kjs_events.cpp). Both are therefore outside the range of short int. Changing the type of 'value' in HashEntry from short to long would apparently cause a change in ABI - kjs/lookup.h is part of the public includes. That's why I made the change values 0xFFFFFFFF and 32768 to -1. I think that GCC compilers version less than 6 will store these values in the same way. Therefore, I believe that the proposed patch would not cause problems == can be pushed. What is your opinion? Cheers -- Slávek

Do crash reports get into the bug list
by Jim 17 Aug '16

17 Aug '16

All, Recently I filled in the automated crash report and sent it on its way. I don't see this in the current bug list. Do those reports go anywhere or should I fill in a new bug report by hand via the web site? Thanks. Jim
