I installed R14 nightly builds on Debian 7 (Wheezy) a couple days ago, and
everything looks fine. The NetworkManager icon was normal. Then I
installed a few miscellaneous programs, and somewhere in that process the
icon turned into a little dot. It looks like it did when I tried to install
the Squeeze version of NetworkManager on Wheezy, probably 2x2 pixels. Any
ideas what might've done that?
After the point where I know it was working fine, I installed:
k3b
kuickshow
abiword
kcalc
ttf-mscorefonts-installer
bibletime
cpufrequtils
kima
klaptopdaemon
kmix
ntpdate
...and of course all dependencies for the above.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Dear all,
the TDE development team has finally prepared a list of bugs that will be addressed for the release of v14.0.0.
The list is available on the etherpad (http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/39) and on bugszilla as meta bug 2014 (http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2014).
If there is a specific bug that you think should be fixed in v14.0.0 and that we have not included, feel free to propose it in the mailing list for consideration. Please keep in mind that such bugs should be blockers/critical or cause major loss of functionality to users.
We are looking at freezing the list in one week time (after 2014/03/19 US time).
The current list of bugs is quite long as you can see, so v14.0.0 will probably not be release before 2-3 additional months of development, based on the resources currently available. Nevertheless we have a soft-freeze in place and so development should be focused mainly on the official bug list.
Cheers
Michele
Hello,
I have installed TDE Ubuntu 12.04 today and found that when I select
LibreOffice the splash screen comes up and freezes for several minutes before
I can clear it by clicking on the desktop. Trying to open up a document has
the same effect.
I have uninstalled the complete package via Adept and then re-installed to no
avail. A check with Synaptic doesn't reveal any broken packages.
I have checked the archives for anything relevant.
Any ideas as to what's wrong please.

I finally got my Paypal account working again. With this we should be a little closer to replacing that cooler.
Come on everybody, every little helps. It may be a small or big effort for each of us, depending on the individual situation, but all together we can do that. I am sure Tim would not have asked if there was another way to do it.
Please donate and help keeping TDE alive :-)
Cheers

Trinity has been my workstation DE for my business, well, since KDE3
went to KDE4. I know there are some others using Trinity, it has a core
group of dedication devs and users, small and broke though
Check it out..help if warrented.

All,
On Monday the equipment that cools the TDE build farm and servers was
destroyed due to a combination of age and utility line problems. As a
result, the build farm is offline and will remain offline until the
cooling equipment can be funded and replaced. If we cannot replace this
equipment, we will unfortunately need to drop support for all Debian and
Ubuntu versions except Wheezy and Trusty to keep build times in a
reasonable range.
If you can, please consider donating towards replacing this equipment:
http://trinitydesktop.org/donate.php Every little bit helps! We have
already received 23% of the funds required.
Thank you for your support; without it, TDE would not be possible!

I have for some time had TDE key problems on my husband's desktop. I
keep thinking that it must have been solved by now and trying again.
He has Wheezy with TDE 3.5.13.2, just as I have. I have no problems
with my own key.
Here is my latest attempt:
root@Nyx:/home/peter# apt-key adv --keyserver
keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net --recv-keys 2B8638D0
Executing:
gpg --ignore-time-conflict --no-options --no-default-keyring --secret-keyring /tmp/tmp.pZxq195osY --trustdb-name /etc/apt//trustdb.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --primary-keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d//debian-archive-squeeze-automatic.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d//debian-archive-squeeze-stable.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d//debian-archive-wheezy-automatic.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d//debian-archive-wheezy-stable.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d//pkg-mozilla-archive-keyring.gpg --keyserver
keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net --recv-keys 2B8638D0
gpg: requesting key 2B8638D0 from hkp server
keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net
gpg: key 2B8638D0: "QuickBuild Trinity Desktop Environment" not
changed
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: unchanged: 1
I copied and pasted the apt-key line from the wiki.
And here is why I think that I have a problem:
root@Nyx:/home/peter# aptitude update > key.txt
W: GPG error: http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net wheezy
Release: The
following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is
not
available: NO_PUBKEY 099723A280479E11
root@Nyx:/home/peter#
And key.txt is here:
http://paste.ubuntu.com/7068342/
I must solve this. He never banks on line, but even so .....
Any ideas?

Dear all,
bug 1833 (http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=1833) reports discontinued links to KBabel po compendium files.
I googled a lot and seems the problem goes back to the KDE days.
I am looking at removing those links and perhaps the whole TMX and PO compendium module pages, but before doing that I would like to know if any of you has been able to use them and in case which link you have used.
Feedback is appreciated.
Thanks
Michele
Hi,
Here is some new pictures to replace the KDE 3.5 stock images found in the KPersonalizer wizard. It would make a great first impression to new users for the upcoming R14 and it would make TDE look like it has progressed since the last 10 years. You will see that while they are new, they do have some inspiration from the old ones.
It is based on CrystalSVG, KFaenza and MoodinKDE.
If you want, I can provide my GIMP files.
Any __constructive__ ideas or comments would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!

greetings, good people . . .
back on the glory days of OS/2 -- yes, i'm *that* old -- i had a wonderful
utility that allowed the user to create his own mouse pointers. after
fiddling with it for awhile, i came up with a scheme that was the reverse
of whatever it was over. you have no idea how useful and precise this
proved to be. by "reverse" i mean over black it would be white, and so on.
it was transparent, so over text the text, reversed, would show through.
i looked for but never found anything that worked similarly in linux. alas,
i'm reaching that point where a mouse pointer, i-beam, etc., big enough to
see is too big to use with anything like precision. (i told you i'm old!)
so i am wondering if among the genuinely sharp minds here anyone can
imagine a recipe for turning an existing mouse pointer theme into
something like the setup i had in OS/2. this would involve finding the
actual theme images -- i'm not sure either as to the format or where they
live -- and editing them by replacing the colors with . . . what? if
anybody has and sense of this and passes it along, if i can make it happen
i'd happily offer the result for inclusion in future releases (or as an
add-on now, if anyone wants it).
ideas?
