Hi!
I just happen to have a wierd problem on a T61p + wheezy: kpowersave was
running, but no battery or cpu information was shown. As it is, hald does not
start. When I put a "lshal" in rc.local, hald is running and anything works
fine. So my question is, why does this happen? I way quite surprised, because
the same image runs on a T60p (which is quite the same hardware) and there
hald is running by default.

Hi,
when I do Alt+F2 the window "execute command" pops up but is not active
because the mouse pointer is somwhere on the screen. Is there a possibility
to place the mouse pointer directly into a pop up window?

I have been having problems with POP 3 and Gmail in that some emails are there
but seem not to download. I have established (with the expenditure of some
time) that the mails download (I have sat and watched them do so) and then
disappear. I have forwarded the mails through two Gmail addresses and one
totally different email provider. In every case they simply disappear. They
don't even land in the wastebin.
Has anyone any ideas, *please*.
My next idea is to destroy all my filters and gradually restore them and see
if the recalcitrant emails are being misfiled in some mythical and
non-existent folder. But that is a large task, and I am loathe to do it if
someone can offer something easier or more sure of success. I would be doing
it in desperation, and not in expectation of success.
Thanks,

First off, let me thank Tim for taking on the project of keeping KDE 3.5
alive and to everyone who has helped in whatever capacity in this
endeavor. I'm a refugee of KDE 3.5 who feels like he came back home
again.
I first adopted KDE full time during the 3.4 series which is when it
matured enough to capture me due to eye candy and finally having
hardware capable of a full desktop environment. This would have been
late 2005 as I recall. I was quite satisfied with KDE3 especially once
I learned all the neat things one could do with it that just blew me
away (and I know that I barely scratched the surface).
As the maintenance stopped on KDE3 and the rumblings of how fantastic
KDE4 would be, I waited in anticipation. I tried some live CDs from the
4,1 release until Debian included 4.2 in its Sid archive. I did my best
to make do and like it and stuck with it on my main desktop until late
last year when I installed a dual port card and set it up for zaphod
heads for two independent desktops and KDE4 turned itself inside out and
proved unworthy of the setup. GNOME was a bit better but far from
perfect. I found that XFCE handles the setup quite acceptably.
In early 2010 I gave Linux Mint a try on my main laptop and was
impressed with their implementation of GNOME and moved to Ubuntu 10.4
Until I opted to go back to Debian Wheezy late last year with XFCE.
XFCE and GNOME were acceptable but never quite as complete as KDE3 and
while I knew of the Trinity project, I didn't investigate it until late
last week. I have since installed it on two Squeeze boxes (one a
desktop and the other a laptop I keep in my pickup) and my main Wheezy
laptop.
Overall I am pleased and impressed with the effort. I can tell that
improvements have been made. One chin scrather is why I get two WiCD
icons in the system tray, but I'll figure that one out later.
Keep up the good work!

Hi
I love KDE4 & KDE 3. I recently tried Porteus GNU/Linux which comes
with Trinity KDE pre-installed. It is an up-to-date distro, not one
or two years old. Porteus with Trinity is awesome & very fast, the
only problem is it is not designed to be installed to a hard drive in
a traditional sense. It's only meant to be used as a liveCD or live
USB drive or live off of the hard drive. What are some distros that
include Trinity KDE pre-installed? Ideally, ones that have a liveDVD
or liveCD option would be best. Thanks very much.
Cheers,
Elcaset

I've had a problem with opening existing documents for some time now, but
attributed the problem to the number of upgrades my computer has been through.
However last week I installed a copy of trinity-maverick on a freshly-wiped
machine, and I'm still having the same problems. Hopefully someone can help? I
have a laptop running trinity under karmic, and Office 2003 runs fine from that
machine, and is able to open all of these documents without problems.
- Installed trinity-maverick 32-bit
- Installed Office 2003 Pro (the same CD used to install on the previous Windows
platform, where the required documents were created)
Unable to open pre-existing .doc files. If a document did try to open, it would
immediately crash with a Windows error report. Other documents completely
crashed Word/wine without even an error.
- Installed the wine repo from ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
- Upgraded to wine1.3 and winetricks
Still unable to open documents. Now they all crash Word/wine without any errors.
- Ran winecfg and set richedit20.dll, richedit32.dll & msxml3.dll as navite
(Windows)
- installed riched30 through winetricks
Attempting to open any documents results in Word crashing with a Windows error
report, then trying to re-launch Word and recover the crashed document. Note
that I can open and use Word by itself without any problems, but I cannot open
any saved documents.
At this point I attempted to reinstall/repair Office 2003. This did not change
anything. I ran winword.exe from CLI and captured the following when I tried to
open a document...

Trinity freshly installed on a HTTP Lucid minimal install, several modules
are complaining about libpython2.6.so not found in paths, even though
libpython2.6 is installed. One such is system services.
Why is there a main menu item "system settings" that opens systemsettings,
even though KControl is installed?
KControl only shows the KControl start page when any of Monitor & Display,
System Services, User Management, Windows Applications & others are selected.
Opening Login Manager causes message "unable to create folder
/usr/share/apps/kdm/faces", which isn't surprising given that KDM shows no
icons in the user list.

After Torvalds recent rant against gnome3 I wanted to tell the world about
trinity (world here means my fav IT news forum on heise.de) and link to the
site - then noticed the site is down.
I cannot advertise something that isn't there.

I got Trinity installed a few hours ago after an initial minimal HTTP Lucid
install, which had left me with a clean text only boot process. Now with
kubuntu-desktop-KDE3 installed I also have the Plymouth GUI nonsense. apt-get
remove plymouth wants to remove virtually the entire system. How do I make
the pre-KDM GUI stuff go away permanently?
