Hi,
Is it possible to install TDE on puppy Linux Slacko 5.7?
It is supposed to be Slackware version 14 compatible.
I have seen that there is a TDE build for Slackware with instruction here, but it seems to be outdated.

Got a new workstation. Wrong video card. The vendor -- rhymes with Bell
-- was happy to send me a 2-port card and 3 displays when I ordered a card
that had 3 ports (because, hello, three displays).
No problem, purchasing person, just have them send me the new card and I'll
send the old one back. Nope, no can do, user guy. Send the whole system back.
Three weeks later ...
I decide I want the latest Kubuntu. I see that there is no TDE for 14.04
so I think "OK, surely they've made KDE 4 usable by now given that it's
been how many years?"
Um, no. Panels won't extend across multiple screens - have to have one for
each. Do those stay on the screens where you put them? No they don't.
Surely this is something new. No, it is not - googling around tells me
that it's at least 5 years old *and* the plasma idiots say that this won't
be fixed because it isn't a problem.
Even *Konsole* is farked up. What a mess.
So here I am ... begging for 14.04 support in TDE because I really don't
have the time to spend reinstalling *again* (I skipped over the Fedora 20
and CentOS 6 chapters of the story). This is a work system, where I do
work, not a play system where I play. That is a distinction lost on the
plasma/KDE 4 idiots.
Help?

Feedback? Contact my director, Matt Younkins, younkinsm(a)ou.edu. Thank you!
NM seems to work (I never thought to write those words!) in general, but I am
told that I need access to get a wireless connection going. How do I achieve
this? I can't launch it through Alt-F2 and I can't find it in the menu.
Thanks,

There's one more thing with today's desktop environments.
I'm working mostly with files. The workflow is to make file in one
program, process in another, correct in third one, manage files in
Konqueror, use files in one more program, batch- process in terminal,
etc. In Trinity the most frequently used tasks can be configured to
toolbar buttons or some actions (e.g. click-to-rename which is
unfortunately not consistent in different views like in MSWin).
KDE4 or Gnome 3 or many other desktops are focused on working not with
files, but with programs. This is a small change in ergonomy, but has
significant consequences. Most customization does not exist in this
model and most tasks are executed in single program, so changing active
programs (famous Alt-tab) occurs rarely. It is good if someone uses
only web browser and mail client, but fails when files are processed.
With every new version of operating systems and tablet computing
gaining popularity, this model slowly goes back to single-tasking model.
It looks similar to these web browsers which dropped
favourites/bookmarks for 3x3 dial scrren to bind users to few
commercial internet content providers (saying "website" for these sites
is not much appropriate today).

Still looking into my "reply and quote" problem:

The only real difference I see is in "Message-Id" (and of course the fact that
one message was sent by outlook).
What can explain the difference in quoting?
The first message had attachments, my test message not, but that should not
make a difference?

Hello list,
I'm back with another puzzle. This time about kmail (the version in 3.5.13.2).
I recently changed my ISP and the new one has an option to filter the mails
with spamassassin. I am starting to receive more mails that spamassassin
forwards with this header:
***************************
X-Ham-Report: Spam detection software, running on the system "<my isp>", has
identified this incoming email as possible spam. The original message
has been attached to this so you can view it (if it isn't spam) or label
similar future email. If you have any questions, see
root\@localhost for details.
***************************
These mails are *not* spam but probably some sort of html/mixed html messages.
The good point is that the mail is turned into plain text, the problem is
that such mails don't quote the message when replying......
As far as I can say this only happens with such fowareded mails. I'm
considering turning off that spam filter (I have spamassassin running localy
and I use an external service), but maybe somone understanding kmails
internals better than me can give an advice?
Regards,
Thierry
Hi everyone,
thanks to Tim's hard work on the integration of TDE with LibreOffice I have on
my small builder setup another apt source: libreoffice-tde-sb. Source contains
only packages for Debian Wheezy and Ubuntu Trusty. Both for amd64 and i386.
Contrary to official packages on the build-farm, there are two differences:
1) For Debian Wheezy was used as the source LibreOffice 4.2.5 from
wheezy-backports. For Ubuntu Trusty was used LibreOffice 4.2.4 from
trusty-updates. As a result, needs no additional packages.
2) Both are built to support TDE in addition to any existing ones -
including support for KDE4.
To install my gpg key:
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net --recv-key A04BE668
Apt source for Debian Wheezy:
deb http://mirror.xcer.cz/libreoffice-tde-sb wheezy-backports main
Apt source for Ubuntu Trusty:
deb http://mirror.xcer.cz/libreoffice-tde-sb trusty main
Perhaps it will be helpful for you :)

Hello all,
I've switched to openSUSE (13.1) because I had some trouble with Wheezy
missing some needed "recent" libraries (plus LibreOffice on Debian does not
give me previews of the pictures I want to import, somehow it does on SuSE).
Everything is fine with 3.5.13.2 but have one (unimportant) bother that
puzzles me:
On Wheezy, when I copy files with Konqueror, I get a nice progress bar.
On SuSE, I get a "text box" that sequencially lists the files being copied but
there is no information about progress - neither graphic nor text.
As I said I can live with that, but I wondered if that might be a bug in the
openSUSE build, or more probably I'm missing something?
Have a nice day,
Thierry
I get a lot of boot messages of the form:
udevd[1465]: failed to
execute '/lib/udev/socket:@/org/freedesktop/hal/udev_event' 'socket:@/org/freedesktop/hal/udev_event':
No such file or directory
The standard fix from
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2014/01/msg00857.html
is
Remove the hal package and you should be fine.
HOWEVER:
apt-get remove hal
gives:
The following packages will be REMOVED:
hal hal-trinity kdebase-runtime-data-common-trinity kdebase-trinity
ksmserver-trinity
And I think ksmserver-trinity is required
( I use xinit /opt/trinity/bin/startkde to start Trinity )
So does Trinity actually use HAL, or can I just get rid of it?
cheers
