libogg0 conflicts with libogg0:i386 under ubuntu precise

by Stefan Endrullis

Hi folks, I'm using trinity on a 64 bit Ubuntu precise (12.04) installation and I want to report a very annoying bug caused by a package conflict of libogg0 from the trinity repository: https://bugs.launchpad.net/trinity-desktop/+bug/977103 Since trinity's libogg0 conflicts with Ubuntu libogg0:i386 several 32 bit applications such as adobe reader can no longer be installed on 64 bit trinity installations. Is there really a conflict between libogg0 and libogg0:i386 that needs to be in the package definition or can one just remove this tag? Best Regards, Stefan

Running kpdf without trinity (and no admin privileges)

by Nicolas Bercher

Hi, I'd like to run trinity parts, at least kpdf, on a machine where I have no admin privileges (it is a Debian Squeeze and runs gnome2). So far, I've: 1. downloaded the following packages: kpdf-trinity_3.5.13-0debian9+r1258283+pr3~squeeze_amd64.deb kdelibs4c2a-trinity_3.5.13-0debian9+r1261449+pr12~squeeze_amd64.deb libtqtinterface_3.5.13-0debian9+r1258011+pr2~squeeze_amd64.deb libqt3-mt_3.3.8d-0ubuntu0+sr73+pr181~squeeze_amd64.deb 2. extracted them using =dpkg-deb -x=: this creates ./usr, ./opt/trinity, etc. 3. tryed to run kpdf: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$(find opt/trinity/lib usr/lib -type d | xargs echo | sed "s; ;:;g") opt/trinity/bin/kpdf this sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH=opt/trinity/lib:opt/trinity/lib/mime:opt/trinity/lib/mime/packages:opt/trinity/lib/trinity:\ opt/trinity/lib/trinity/plugins:opt/trinity/lib/trinity/plugins/styles:\ opt/trinity/lib/trinity/plugins/designer:usr/lib:usr/lib/pkgconfig:\ usr/lib/qt3:usr/lib/qt3/plugins:usr/lib/qt3/plugins/inputmethods:\ usr/lib/qt3/plugins/imageformats In the end, kpdf is running but: 1. I throws many errors a start time: 1. complains about dcop server being absent: can I skip this? I found nothing relevant in the kpdf man page 2. could not find mime type "application octet-stream", seems to be related to 3. then says "no mime types installed" 2. file and edit menus have "No text!" names. I guess I can figure out why because kpdf is missing its files (i.e., there's no /opt/trinity/share/apps/kpdfpart/part.rc et al. in the kpdf scope), but I don't know how to fix it. Note that I copied ~/.trinity/share/apps/kpdfpart/part.rc. I'd be glad if someone has the willing to help me polishing this! I really miss kpdf at work! Thank you, Nicolas PS: Would it be possible to install and run parts of trinity from a fakeroot env?

Trinity 3.5.11 to 3.5.13

by Marvin L Jones

I've been running Ubuntu 10.04/Trinity -- all fat, dumb, and happy. Especially happy. Now, while poking around at http://www.trinitydesktop.org/ I see I should be/could be using Trinity v3.5.13. I'm not. I'm running Trinty 3.5.11. sigh... My apt sources: : |$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kde3-maintainers.list |# KDE3 repositories | |deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kde3-maintainers/ppa/ubuntu lucid main |deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/kde3-maintainers/ppa/ubuntu lucid main The http://www.trinitydesktop.org/ apt sources list for 10.04/Lucid contains: deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-v3.5.13/ubuntu lucid main deb-src http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-v3.5.13/ubuntu lucid main deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps-v3.5.1… lucid main deb-src http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps-v3.5.1… lucid main So , is it enough to change my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kde3-maintainers.list file to the trinity-v3.5.13 sources and apt-get update/upgrade? Or, will I snafu my nicely running system? Are there any gotchas? Or, do I have to upgrade through trinity-v3.5.12 first -- somehow?

Choice of language

by Jean Milot

Hello, I have a problem with language. I choose the language for kde to switch between : pt and fr. It works only for the kde application (not icedove, iceweasel, chrome ...) I have modify the script startkde in which I export the variable : LANG In order to obtain the language of kde, i search in the .trinity/share/config/kdeglobals, language to export the good variable. But it seems that when we change the languages the kdeglobals files is modified and the variable language disappear. Thanks for your help. Sincerely, Jean -- MILOT Jean Tél. : 0659514624 milot.jean(a)gmail.com

Installing Trinity on Squeeze: problem with recommends

by Lisi

Hello all :-) I am doing a fresh install of Trinity, on a fresh install of Debian Squeeze, which so far has no GUI installed. After I issue: aptitude install desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity I get a list of 165 recommends and the question: do you accept this solution? Well, I think that there are 165, but the first that I can currently see is number 147. Having dismally failed to find a way to see what I am being asked to agree to, I decided to accept all recommends, which might at least reduce the number of things on the screen and let me see what else, if anything, aptitude is telling me. (Oh, I do miss konsole!) So I did: aptitude -r install desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity That made no difference at all. Still a problem, still 165 recommends (as far as I can see), still: do you accept this solution? And I still don't know what "solution" it is recommending. It might be suggesting _removing_ 165 packages. So, in case I had gone bonkers and got the order wrong I tried: aptitude install -r desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity Same result. :-( I am fresh out of ideas. I have had enough physical problems building this computer, without software problems as well. :-( Help! (And thank you, of course) Lisi

Kmail in TrinityDE 3.5.12, restoring from KDE 3.5.10

by Lisi Reisz

I am restoring my KMail details from Lenny with KDE 3.5.10 to Squeeze with TDE 3.5.13, patched with Slávek's patches. I have copied .kde/share/apps/kmail from my backup to .trinity/share/apps/kmail. It wasn't a success. The klauncher didn't do anything. (At least, it probably did, but I have no way of knowing what!!) I then launched it by various methods, which are self explanatory. Finally, I launched it from the menu, and got the backtrace (or lack of it) below. It's pretty obvious that I have copied something across during the restauration that has gummed up the works. But how do I find out what? Or should I simply delete all the files that are there and start again, but if so, how? I gummed up kdm-trinity as well, but have managed to sort that out via Google. This one I am failing with. Once I get this installation going I'll try to be trouble-free, or at least quiet, for some time! :-( root@Tux-II:/home/lisi# kmail Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed WeaverThreadLogger: thread (ID: 3) suspended.

A general question about Trinity

by Janek S.

Dear list, Yesterday I decided to install latest openSUSE (12.2) on one of my laptops. Suse provides KDE3 repositories, though I know not everything went smooth with these builds in the past. I started in the morning and after spending whole day on installing, configuring and solving problems I realized that I'm not even halfway finished! The problem is that KDE3 is not being updated to work with some system services and thus many features just don't work out of the box, e.g. unmounting of auto-mounted drives or adding new internet connections to NetworkManager (I suspect polkit to be the culprit). In desperation I installed KDE4, since I need a working computer, but now I'm trying to figure out what to do next. I am considering switching to Debian or Ubuntu (though there are no packages for 12.04 LTS!) so I can install Trinity. I am worried however that I might encounter similar problems as with KDE. So my big question is: does Trinity provide all these basic fetures like automounting, network management etc. out-of-the-box or does it require to spend a lot of time to configure the system? Jan
