update-rc.d tdm-trinity disable doesn't work on raspbian jessie
by Philip Ashmore 24 Dec '15

24 Dec '15

Hi there. I've got some raspberry pi's running raspbian-jessie with trinity installed. They're intended to be run headless, with trinity available as needed. I'd like the option to start the desktop manually, not automatically. I tried # update-rc.d tdm-trinity disable and got insserv: warning: current start runlevel(s) (empty) of script `tdm-trinity' overrides LSB defaults (2 3 4 5). insserv: warning: current stop runlevel(s) (0 1 2 3 4 5 6) of script `tdm-trinity' overrides LSB defaults (0 1 6). insserv: warning: current start runlevel(s) (empty) of script `tdm-trinity' overrides LSB defaults (2 3 4 5). insserv: warning: current stop runlevel(s) (0 1 2 3 4 5 6) of script `tdm-trinity' overrides LSB defaults (0 1 6). After a reboot I'm still seeing /var/run/tdm.pid and I can stop the desktop/greeter? with # /etc/init.d/tdm-trinity stop I ran raspi-config and set the option to boot into command line without login/desktop but that doesn't seem to have any effect. Any pointers? Regards, Philip Ashmore

Specifying SMTP server by folder in KMail 1.9.10
by Lisi Reisz 23 Dec '15

23 Dec '15

Is there any way I can specify the SMTP server for my emails so that mailing lists go via one server and everything else with the other? I can do it manually quite easily, but that requires me to remember. And it is a bit of a nuisance. I have KMail set to use different identities according to folder. I would like to be able to use different SMTP servers according to folder. Lisi

Audio CD encoding to MP3
by Curt Howland 23 Dec '15

23 Dec '15

Quick question, I noticed that the selections when inserting an audio CD are WAV, CDA, FLAC and OggVorbis. You can tell it's been a while, wasn't MP3 on that list? Curt- -- The secret of happiness is freedom, and the secret of freedom is courage. - Thucydides

Problem with sound from Tdemid
by alistair izzard 23 Dec '15

23 Dec '15

Hi Merry Christmas and a very happy new year to all. I wonder if you can help with this, installed tdemid and loaded a midi file, but I don't get any sound from it, I have been in pulse audio and it doesn't show, I have also tried all the midi maps to see if I get sound, I can see the file playing and it seems functional just as I said, no sound. Thanks in advance for any ideas or suggestions Alie

Failed to add a plugin to the panel
by deloptes 22 Dec '15

22 Dec '15

Hi before logging a bug I would consult the community on following. In the console I type: kfmclient exec settings:/ or kfmclient openURL settings:/ which opens the settings in konqueror, but then I open "Peripherals" or whatever is called in English and press Mouse. I get Failed to add a plugin to the panel No running instance of xfce4-panel was found WTH? Any idea? Anyone else can reproduce this? I've never used xfce thanks regards

cannot launch shell script
by Giuliano Colla 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

I'm running TDE 14.0.2 on CentOs 6. My compliments to the trinity team for the excellent job! I've got back all the reach features of KDE 3, instead of a bloated and much less usable Plasma thing. However I've stumbled into an annoying issue. When clicking on the icon of an executable shell script (extension .sh), it's opened for editing in Kate, and not launched. The same, under KDE4 is properly executed. Is it a matter of some improper setting that I can fix, or a bug? Additional information. Looking to the file properties, I see that it's using the settings for the group "text". In /opt/trinity/share/mimelink I find both /text/x-shellscript.desktop which has a line: X-TDE-IsAlso=application/x-executable-script and a line [Property::X-TDE-text] and /application/x-shellscript.desktop which has the two identical line, which make little sense IMHO because if I understand properly they tell that it's also itself, and that it should be treated as text. Thanks for any help. Giuliano

openSuSE and trinity-tdemultimedia >= 14.02
by Thierry de Coulon 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

I don't remember who maintains the openSUSE builds, but I'd first like to thank him for all the work! Having some free time I decided to give "Leap 42.1" a try. It installs correctly under Gnome 3 (SUSE provides Mate as an install choice now, I've noted). Then I started installing TDE and all went well until "zypper install trinity-desktop". At that point I get a puzzling message: trinity-desktop-14.0.2-1.oss421.noach requires trinity-tdemultimedia >= 14.02 but this requirement cannot be provided. Repos being updated? Leap version uncomplete? Simply the usual communication problems with some repos, try later? No big deal as I don't intend using Leap before next summer (I _never_ change my work distribution during the school year...) but I'd like to understand the message. Greetings from Switzerland, Thierry

KSysV missfire
by Gene Heskett 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

Greetings; Out of curiosity, I tried to run ksysv from the tde menu. Can't. If insists on a root pw that does not exist on this debian wheezy install. A sudo -i in a konsole for me, and it runs just fine. This really ought to be fixed. No biggie for me, but...
