kmail Mail transport
by Gene Heskett 26 Sep '15

26 Sep '15

Greetings; I have trolled thru the configs but haven't managed to find a way to link the Identity used to send a mail, to the Mail transport used to send the msg. Since I have an account at the tv station at least as long as I live, I have used that old & overloaded qmail server since I helped install it 16 years ago. But shentel has now set up a new server of their own after about 2 years of excedrin headaches caused by farming it out to gmail, and of course I have an account there because its my ISP and phone company too. In the folder properties, one can set the sender Identity, which works well, but to use the 20x faster shentel server when I am using a shenetl ID, I have to manually select it from the pulldown on the right. Can this not be linked to be automaticly selected according to the folder I launched a reply in? If not, its a future feature request. Thanks.

Where do I find the most expert nfs help?
by Gene Heskett 25 Sep '15

25 Sep '15

Greetings; I have a weird problem in that I seem to be able to access the remote machine, except for the most important directory on it, /home. An ls /net/machine/home ls: cannot access /net/shop/home: Stale NFS file handle Expected this sudo ls /net/shop/root permission denied But every other actually exists on the drive directory is ls'able. I've restarted all the nfs related stuff, everything but rebooted this machine. Subject says it all. I need to find the experts.

Quickbuild (Launchpad) question not Trinity related.
by Michael . 23 Sep '15

23 Sep '15

Hi Tim I tried emailing you via the email (kb9vqf(a)pearsoncomputing.net) on the TDE site but it bounced. Is there an email I can contact you on with regards to Quickbuild (Launchpad) or is it fine to ask here? Cheers. Michael.

Change of language in TDE
by Lisi Reisz 17 Sep '15

17 Sep '15

My recent bout of proselytising is bringing converts - and questions that I can't answer. I'll feed these out one at a time. If the locale of Trinity is wrong, i.e. was not installed correctly in the first place - US instead of UK in the case in question - how can one put it right? Keyboard is easy, but there is a lot more wrong than Keyboard. Dates are unreadable, money wrong, paper default sizes wrong etc. At least numbers are, I think, right!! There are two desktops on the laptop in question, and I *think* that the other one is right and is set to UK. Just for the record, and in case of doubt, living with it is not a realistic option!! Thanks, Lisi

Missing trinity-filesystem RPM Package
by Tim Williams 15 Sep '15

15 Sep '15

Hi All, I've just done a clean install of Mageia 5 with the latest Trinity r14.0.1 RPMs and I've found a problem, the trinity-filesystem RPM seems to be missing from the repository, this prevents installation of the core packages. I've build my own version of the RPM from an older source RPM so that I could get the installation to proceed and everything else seems to have worked.

shift+left/right cannot be bound in Emacs
by Uwe Brauer 15 Sep '15

15 Sep '15

Hello This seems a odd problem, I can bind in Emacs/Xemac control+shift, or shift but not left+shift. Emacs does not recognize the key so I thought maybe trinity has bound that key. That happens for example with the Control+F1-Control+F12 keys. But I was not able to find any binding. Somebody has an idea? thanks Uwe Brauer

kpdf vs big document= odd failure
by Gene Heskett 14 Sep '15

14 Sep '15

Greetings all; As has been mentioned, I dabble in CNC machinery too. Maybe that qualifies me as a power user since the motors used to run the machinery do spin the power meter up a bit. :) Anyway, the most recent version of the documentation for LiniuxCNC, version 2.7.0, has been combined from 3 "books" of nominally 450 pages each, some of which contained duplicate info, into one 704 page tome now. So I called up kpdf and sent it to print this, duplex mode on my Brother HL3170CDW color laser printer. It immediately jumped one core to 100%, but I figured that would take it a while to preprocess. But after about 10 minutes I began to worry because I had started that job once before but had to reboot the machine for other reasons before it had sent a wakeup byte to the printer. So I called up a copy of iceweasel to see what localhost:631/printers/network-printer had to say for itself. Which was that the "pdftops" filter had failed. So I canceled the job. Thirty seconds later, the printer wakes up and starts slowly spitting out the printout as requested. But I have no clue how many pages into the document it will get before running out of data because it is about 30 sheets of paper into the job, and still trucking along in duplex mode. The printer is rated at 20 PPM, but in duplex, all that paper handling cuts it to about 2 or 3 sheets a minute. When it dies, I can restart the job at an arbitrary page number to finish the job of course, but I am curious why the web interface to cups would report the failure of the pdftops filter, yet it looks to be working well right this instant? But then it reported a drum error, please slide the wire cleaner gismo's on all 4 drums. Did, it spit out the bad page and reprinted a good copy of that page. And 34 pages of preamble index etc, plus over 100 pages of the 704 in the doc so far. Did I mention I love Brother printers yet? But whats with kpdf? Inquiring minds would like to know. Thanks everybody. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

Did I miss something? Changing sources.list to pearsoncomputing.net
by Curt Howland 13 Sep '15

13 Sep '15

Hi. I changed my sources.list to point to the pearsoncomputing.net site for Jessie, rather than the "preliminary build" site, and when I tried it I got this: Err http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-r14.0.0/debian/ jessie/main libtqt3-mt amd64 4:14.0.1-0debian8.0.0+0 301 Moved Permanently All the packages got the "301" error. I stopped the process after half a dozen or so. Did I miss something? I knew that Jessie had been moved to the Pearsoncomputing.net archives, and thought that I'd left enough time for everything to copy over.
