Mimetype problems with r14
by Kate Draven 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

As you may have guess, I found a mimetype problem for any trinity applications. I just found out that k3b for trinity cannot open/recognize its own saved projest files/mimetypes (just like chalk doesn't). However k3b for kde4 could and that was the clue. Install chalk and try to open a template. Or create and save a project with k3b for trinity. See if they work. I don't think it will. I'm not jumping to the conclusion that I'm right. However I have seen this across 29 machines so far. The reason, I think, for that is because these mimetypes are for kde4 (best way I can explain it). I can open k3b saved projects in k3b for kde4, but not in k3b for trinity. The mimetype designs for kde3 / 4 are not compatible with r14. These appears randomly throughout the gui, for example kword cannot open an rtf anymore etc etc. As I dig deeper I'm finding more of this. I can do work arounds but they're ugly and not sustainable. These problems only relate to trinity and does not affect gtk or others. Please let know what all of find. When I have time I'll try to file a bug report. Thanks Kate

TDE and bluetooth (Bluez 5)
by deloptes 20 Dec '15

20 Dec '15

Hi, sorry for bugging you all, but now I'm trying to catch up what I missed in the past 4+ years. Unfortunately I did find out that the mess around bluetooth is getting even bigger now with Bluez 5. http://askubuntu.com/questions/440386/bluetoothd-bluez-5-wont-connect-with-… What is your experience with BT and is someone using it with phones? After couple of hours I was able to pair my old symbian phone, but bt-agent (bluez-tools) is segfaulting (kernel 4.1.6) bluetoothctl worked after executing the proper sequence of commands and catching the phone in good mood. How would one pair the phone (or any BT device) from within TDE? regards

[trinity-users] no sound whatsoever in r14.0.2 on openSUSE 13.1, 13.2 or Tumbleweed or Fedora 23

starttde won't even start due to http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2557 so I run /opt/trinity/bin/starttde from the xterm that startx puts on the display, in which the following appears (among much else which I cannot figure out how to copy and paste into any file): [starttde] TDE_SESSION_UID: 0 [tdeinit] Shutting down running client. ...

What program needs --system? How do I configure that way? How do I get sound in these distros? Same distros typically make sound automagically on other hardware, so why this machine's trouble is inexplicable, especially as it works as expected with Jessie. Running alsaconf unloads all kernel snd modules, then reports cannot find any sound device.

adept-update missfire?
by Gene Heskett 16 Dec '15

16 Dec '15

Greetings all; I had not used it so far as I'm a synaptic fan, but had a power outage today, and when I rebooted it, the adept icon came up so I clicked on it, but it never completed showing me a list once it opened its screen/window. I let it sit there for a couple minutes then clicked on cancel and got a crash screen, which wasn't able to send the crash report since there is not a copy of GDB on that machine. Synaptic of coarse fired right up & replaced the 3 Linuxcnc packages with newer versions. I hope this wasn't a pre-curser to a trashed database. Has anyone had a problem with the adept-updater (or whatever its called)? Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

Ubuntu 15.10 - 14.0.2 - TDE Black Screen - Virtual Terminals unresponsive
by Corey McGuire 15 Dec '15

15 Dec '15

Hey all, I have installed both the TDE Ubuntu and tried TDE under Xubuntu and in both cases, my system goes blackscreen as soon as my user logs in (and it's stuck on auto log on). In semi rare cases, I get enough screen time to log out to lightdm (currently using under xubuntu), in which case, I can log back in with TDE and use my system. When my system goes black, all virtual terminals are blacked out. I cannot tell if my keypresses (ctrl-alt-f*) are received. The xorg.0.log is not informative. Here's the rest of my info. I don't know where else to look for errors. I made sure I tested this under a clean profile. Thanks! ~$ cat /etc/issue Ubuntu 15.10 \n \l ~$ Uname -a Linux hixoltage 4.2.0-19-generic #23-Ubuntu SMP Wed Nov 11 11:38:40 UTC 2015 i686 athlon i686 GNU/Linux ~$ sudo aptitude i kubuntu-default-settings-trinity 4:14.0.2-0ubun 4:14.0.2-0ubun i kubuntu-desktop-trinity 4:14.0.2-0ubun 4:14.0.2-0ubun ~$ dmesg http://pastebin.com/r91vfr1E ~$ cat /var/log/syslog http://pastebin.com/uaNkBkaV -- Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler - Albert Einstein <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Einstein> Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication - Leonardo Da Vinci <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonardo_Da_Vinci> Perfection is reached not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away - Antoine de Saint Exupéry <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antoine_de_Saint_Exup%C3%A9ry> Keep It Simple Stupid - Kelly Johnson <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarence_Johnson>

Sometimes that's one thing that goes wrong, even with single card setups. Usually there are several controls that determine the file vol and quality. Master, PCM and, depending on your card, something in the Switches tab. In my case (soundblaster audigy) it's bass boost or whatever it's called. Try dropping the PCM (if you have one) down to about half way and then adjust the master. If that fails: Run alsaconf or the like to reset your card's settings. If that fails: Use the laptop volume controls. Set it to half and try again. That's all I can think of, I hope it helps. Kate

Here are the dcop and xsession-errors files. I think there's something wrong with a LOT of minetypes. koffice doesn't recognize it's own native file files. Maybe someone can make heads of tails of it Thanks Kate
