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?

Last post ack the list archives was in August 2017, after which the list
was silent, and my msgs were apparently routed to /dev/null. But I
didn't unsubscribe.
My ISP has been known to block/bounce but pearsoncomputing.net was in
their "whitelist", I put it there yonks ago.
Anyway, I'm glad to be back.

Hi again.
Did Nik mean chmod o+w or chmod a+w? I looked to the manpage, a+w is
writeable for everyone. It can solve the message "failed to open
'/etc/tqt3/tqt_plugins_3.5rc.tmp'". But I learned that user shouldnt
write in /etc/... folder.
When I made chmod a+w /etc/tqt3 does it affect on /etc or only in
/etc/tqt3? I dont want to destroy my system. :/
For the new readers, this is my problem:
I have ubuntu 18.4 with trinity R14.0.5. If I want to start the arduino
ide from arduino.cc (download and extract arduino-1.8.7-linux64.tar.xz)
there comes the splash-screen for one second and it crashes with this
message:
~/arduino-1.8.7$ ./arduino
Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS:
TQSettings::sync: failed to open '/etc/tqt3/tqt_plugins_3.5rc.tmp' for
writing
What I have to install or change?
I logged in today with the ubuntu standard desktop and the arduino ide
works great.
deloptes points in devel to $CLASSPATH, the var in empty in my shell.
./arduino is a bash script.
Thanks for the help.

I don't often print PDF documents, but recently when I have tried to do so I
have been stymied when KPDF told me that my document needs conversion. It
also says something about using a non-CUPS print server, which is not my
case.
I have attached screen shots of the relevant message dialogs that KPDF
produces. When I click through these, most of the time KPDF just disappears,
but sometimes I see the third dialog first. I can find no information on
what it's really wanting or trying to do, so I have no clue as to which MIME
type to choose. My understanding is that somewhat recently, Linux has
switched from printing PDFs directly to converting them to PostScript;
perhaps that has something to do with this?
What is the proper way to navigate these dialogs?

Hi,
I'm currently using some Trinity apps (kpdf, amarok, ksnapshot,
konqueror) into another window manager (wmii, then i3).
Since I stopped using Trinity as my main desktop years ago (I changed
machine and reinstalled Debian without Trinity) I'm only using the
aforementioned packages.
Now, *applications such as kpdf and konqueror cannot be configured*
anymore, or only partly.
Through years, I've already spent a lot of time trying to find a package
for the missing configuration tools & config files for the event sounds
without success for the following:
* Things don't know how to configure:
kpdf:
- Where should I tell it not to emit any event sound?
konqueror:
- Basic preferences like "View Mode" (tree view, etc.)
- Menu Settings / Configure Konqueror : I got an empty window
- Where should I tell it not to emit any event sound?
* Things can configure:
kpdf:
- Keyboard shorcuts: ~/.trinity/share/apps/kpdfpart/part.rc
konqueror:
- Bookmarks
amarok & ksnapshot: all seems OK.

Happy New Year to all.
I just noticed I can no longer sftp in konqueror to sites I normally
"visit". It's been a week or 2 since I last used the feature, but I
think a Trinity update may have caused this snafu.
I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 with Trinity 14.0.6 using the Preliminary
Stable Builds repository.
konqueror "claims" it's connecting, but it just hangs after that.
I see _nothing_ concerning the attempt in either the local or remote
logs.
Every failure in konqueror works Just Fine when replicated on the
command line. E.G.,
sftp://UserID:PASSword@example.com fails in konqueror
sftp UserID:PASSword@example.com connects just fine on the command line
... as well, it fails on sites where I use SSH Key-Based Authentication.
And, again, it works Just Fine at the command line.
Anyone else confirm?
Thank you,
Jonesy

Open a graphical package manager, like synaptic, and do a wild card search.
Just enter "engine" without the quotes. If it's NOT there, install it and see
if that helps. Remember to go to kcontrol and adjust the gtk3 to default.
It's under appearances and themes.

Nah, just feels like it now.

Add more gtk themes. Then try again. If that doesn't work, remove it. You
really don't need it.
