Hi
I'm trying to get skype sound to work but apparently the monkeys at MS removed
alsa support and replaced it with pulse, which is rubbish. Even though I have
pulse enable (pclos - ali's remaster), it still doesn't show up. Is there a
fix to re-enable alsa or the like?

Hi all,
Having tried out Q4OS I am interested in trying the "pure" TDE on Debian stretch. I have read the Wiki instructions on how to do so. I don't want to duplicate programs from another DE when I add TDE. Is there a best option for a pre-existing DE on Debian when adding the TDE so as to avoid duplication etc ?
Hi all,
I'm having a trouble getting Trinity working on Mageia 6. I've installed
via the official URPMI repositories, using the trinity-desktop package
to ensure all dependencies are present.
Note, I've got Trinity running OK on my laptop with Mageia 6, but on my
desktop system it's badly broken for reasons I can't trace. My desktop
uses an NFS mounted home directory and and is a dual-monitor system.
If I use TDM as the login manager, the I get dropped out of X back to
the terminal, TDM seems to be unable to start at all. I've switched to
LightDM, which fixed this but TDE isn't listed as an available desktop
in the relevant menu. Fixing this required a symbolic link from
/opt/trinity/share/apps/tdm/sessions/tde.desktop to /usr/share/xsessions.
If I login the initial splash screen appears, but I then get a crash
message which closes before I can read the details, I then get dumped
back at the login manager. If I login using XFCE and try to run
starttde, then I get same behaviour and again, the crash handler
vanishes before I can get at anything useful. I see the following at the
command prompt:
[starttde] Starting starttde.
[starttde] This script is /opt/trinity/bin/starttde
[starttde] TDE version is R14.0.4

Note, I'm not sure why this is complaining about
/home/timw/.DCOPserver_baa.sheep__0, I've checked prior to start up and
this dir does not exist, nor is it left behind after the crash.
I've tried using a clean user account and also running this as root, but
there is no difference, the start up just crashes.
I've audited my system and have removed all the left behind Mageia 5
packages, so the installation is clean as far as I can tell. TDE
programmes such as konqueror, kate etc start up OK running on XFCE.
Any help much appreciated, I'm somewhat lost without my Trinity desktop
and this is my primary work computer.
Thanks in advance,
Tim W

Hello,
I have not been able to find a working trinity repository for opensuse
42.3. I had been using the mirror https://build.opensuse.org/
project/show/home:PunisherHD:Trinity:stable previously, but that appears to
be unmaintained and is unbuilt for 42.3. All opensuse versions of the
trinitydesktop.org mirror error that repomd.xml is not digitally signed and
I have imported the GPG key.

I'm also a bit puzzled, i indeed see a point "."
And the comma after "Kmail,"
Maybe there's some problem with the fonts?
Try other fonts.....
Hi all!
Is there a way to get split screens in konsole, just like with "screen" or "terminator" ?
