Mouse freezes with kmail (trinity)
by andre_debian＠numericable.fr 10 Dec '15

10 Dec '15

Hello, Sometimes in the edition of a mail, with a copy/paste in the text, my mouse freezes (not the keyboard), I'm blocked to go on, I have to wait about 10 seconds, to retrieve the mouse normally. I changed the mouse but it doesn't resolve the problem. (idem). André

Desktop Not Refreshing or Reflecting Changes
by Kate Draven 10 Dec '15

10 Dec '15

Hi Has anyone experienced the following. Whenever I use konqueror and copy a file over to the desktop or delete. The desktop itself doesn't reflect those changes until I create and delete a new file. For example. In konqueror, I copy a file, minimize to see the desktop, the file isn't there. I then right click, create new text file, the previous file appears. Or if I've deleted a desktop file using konq, I have to repeat the steps in order for the file "ghosts" to disappear. Anyone? Kate

Sound in Jessie and so on
by Slávek Banko 07 Dec '15

07 Dec '15

Hi all, you might remember the July thread about the nonfunctional sounds in KNotify and other programs on Jessie. If you have encountered the same problem, I have good news for you. Problem was discovered (was confirmed my assumption that it has a relationship with mime types and libmagic), and treated to the sounds again worked! Updated packages are already available in the preliminary stable builds repository. Development cycle for R14.0.3 is hereby opened :) Related links: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::8649 http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2392 http://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/tdelibs/commit/?id=b0ac7d28 Cheers -- Slávek

Source Tarball Mirrors
by Jagged O'Neill 06 Dec '15

06 Dec '15

High again, I remember mirror servers being a topic multiple times recently, but iirc, that was about system specific repositories. Now I'm trying to download 14.0.2 to compile it myself, and I have (been) navigated to http://ftp.fau.de/trinity/releases/R14.0.2/downloads.html In the second-last line it says: The high speed file mirror currently in use was selected at random. All mirror information is available on the main Trinity project page at https://www.trinitydesktop.org. I don't find any mirror info there... not even the word "mirror". I also searched the wiki, with an astonishing little number of hits, one related to GIT ("check out the entire source tree from mirror"), another to "Building KDE 3.5 with Konstruct", which appears to be quite obsolete, despite it's more or less recent timestamp from 2014-05-07, and the last one about "ULab NIUInstallNotes", where I guess that it's not about the source tarballs. I also looked through other pages, without finding any hint about mirrors, so my question: there seems to be a list of mirrors maintained, but it doesn't seem to be visible to the end users, only to scripts, on which the user has to rely? I'm asking, because connections to the mirror at fau.de are not particularly stable from my home net. Using "wget -c", mileages vary, but the per-session volume is below 200kB, which makes it tiresome to download a 200MB archive. Also, the mirror can't be choosen so randomly, since I _always_ end up at fau.de. Any links? Thanks in advance, Jagged PS: anyone having the R14.0.2-core.tar on their box, could you please run "tar tf" on it and send the output? --- thanks again. -- valgrind python -c 'for i in range(1,1): print(i)' 2>&1 | grep error

[trinity-users] r14 mouse pointer missing in Jessie
by Felix Miata 05 Dec '15

05 Dec '15

Fresh Jessie installation about a week ago, Trinity added tonight. Using startx rather than any DM. Mouse can be used to select and click, but no way to tell where pointer is until it hovers something that changes on hover. Same problem in IceWM. Booting openSUSE Leap instead, pointer works normally in IceWM. Both evdev and mouse input drivers are installed. Google can't find anything helpful except WRT *buntu, rsyslog, arm or raspberry pi. Anyone here had this happen and/or know a fix? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg.

imaping an existing kmail maild atabase
by Gene Heskett 04 Dec '15

04 Dec '15

Greetings all; There are times when I would find it expedient to be able to run kmail on one of the other machines I have trinity installed on, which isn't all of them. How hard would it be to setup a server on this machine, which has R14.0.2 on it, all working as a pop client from 2 external mail accounts I have, referencing the nominally 12Gb of an email corpus here, so I could access it from a kmail session on another machine, still on my local network? Thanks. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
