KMail migration to another computer
by Glen Cunningham 17 Jun '18

17 Jun '18

G'day All Trinity Gurus, I am currently running KMail on a very old KDE/Trinity installation. /etc/issue shows "Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS" which needs to be pensioned off immediately. I have installed tde-14.0.4-ubuntu-16.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso onto a newer computer. The installation seems OK and I managed to transfer the mozilla bookmarks to the new computer but getting KMail across has me stumped. Googling did not produce anything useful. :-((( On this old computer the KMail info seems to be stored in /home/glen/.kde3/share/apps/kmail but the new installation seems to have a very different directory structure. So, can the KMail settings and emails be copied to the newer computer? If anyone knows how, please let me know in GOF-speak (that is words of 2-syllables or less). Ta, Glen

starting trinity fails with segfault of dcopserver
by Stefan Krusche 16 Jun '18

16 Jun '18

Good day everyone, I can't seem to get a trinity session started on a freshly installed Devuan/ascii system. System information: $ uname -a Linux rubians 4.9.0-6-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.88-1+deb9u1 (2018-05-07) x86_64 GNU/Linux TDE is from preliminary stable builds: $ /opt//trinity/bin/tde-config --version Qt: 3.5.0 TDE: R14.0.5 [DEVELOPMENT] tde-config: 1.0 TDE's display manager tdm seems to run fine, but after trying to login the xserver crashes, restarts and brings me back to the login screen. Xorg.log doesn't show any errors (EE), only a couple of warnings (WW), and slim/xfce starts well, so the problem does not *seem* to be with my xorg installation/configuration. Apparently the fatal error for tdm (taken from /var/log/tdm.log; see below) seems to be: XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0" after 10630 requests (10630 known processed) with 12 events remaining. At the same time the kernel reports segfaults of xsetroot, dcopserver and drkonqi: # /var/log/kern.log: xsetroot[13335]: segfault at 0 ip (null) sp 00007ffc3e25b728 error 14 in xsetroot[5565ab996000+3000] dcopserver[13348]: segfault at 0 ip (null) sp 00007ffe62f8bfb8 error 14 in tdeinit[561ca05e9000+f000] drkonqi[13349]: segfault at 0 ip (null) sp 00007ffdc6e1ef78 error 14 in drkonqi[556e1e321000+2c000] drkonqi[13357]: segfault at 0 ip (null) sp 00007ffd3ae13258 error 14 in drkonqi[559954651000+2c000] drkonqi[13358]: segfault at 0 ip (null) sp 00007ffcd2440b98 error 14 in drkonqi[563d84b6a000+2c000] drkonqi[13364]: segfault at 0 ip (null) sp 00007ffd8ee79d38 error 14 in drkonqi[55fc873bf000+2c000] drkonqi[13366]: segfault at 0 ip (null) sp 00007ffe42274928 error 14 in drkonqi[5574adb0e000+2c000] dcopserver[13373]: segfault at 0 ip (null) sp 00007ffd4592dcc8 error 14 in tdeinit[564c11c4d000+f000] drkonqi[13375]: segfault at 0 ip (null) sp 00007ffc4ab0fa98 error 14 in drkonqi[55e870384000+2c000] TDE's start script /opt/trinity/bin/starttde also reports segmentation fault and crashes of a couple of TDE programs. Main reason for failure seems to be that dcopserver can't be started (all marked with "<----"). I'm stuck and don't know how to find out the root of the problem. I'm probably missing something here. Any hints and advice much appreciated. Kind regards, Stefan # ~/.xsession-errors: Xsession: X session started for stekru at Mo 4.

by Gene Heskett 16 Jun '18

16 Jun '18

Greetings all; I am in the process od transitioning to stretch, and there are some helpfull email messages I need to print. . But I need to print them on a brother HL-2140, about a penny a sheet. not of the big ink squirter at 25 to 50 cents a sheet not to mention its in pages per hour speed. But when I send something to the little brother, knotify pops up with the following message: A print error occurred. Error message received from system: Error while reading filter description for (bold>) true. Empty command line received. This printer is shared and works fine from any other machine on my 6 machine home network, it only miss-behaves from kmail. Up to date TDE r14.0.0.5 install. Any clues? -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

HP Machine

Hi Guys, Thank you for your comments. Glen, I did eventually find that info you mentioned. I also discovered from the HP web site, that the same machine comes in a lot of variants. There is little information to identify which has what in terms of main boards, graphics cards, sound cards etc. I managed to contact the dealer just before they shut up shop for the weekend and asked them to supply the exact specifications for the model that I'm interested in. They have promised to get back to me... Will report further. Thanks all. -- Best Regards: Baron

If it uses proprietary drivers, uninstall and reinstall. I have the same printer, sometimes farts up and need to do the above. Kate

compilation errors with clang
by Oleg Levenets 14 Jun '18

14 Jun '18

Hi, maybe someone can help? I decided to create a git-version of trinity for my slackware, but several packages do not want to be compiled. First package k9copy: ../../libk9copy/k9config.cpp:82:72: [0;1;31merror: taking the address of a temporary object of type 'TQColor' [-Waddress-of-temporary] ...&TQColor(TQt::yellow)); [0;1;32m ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ../../libk9copy/k9config.cpp:83:68: [0;1;31merror: taking the address of a temporary object of type 'TQColor' [-Waddress-of-temporary] ...&TQColor(TQt::yellow)); Second soundkoverter: In file included from ../../../../src/metadata/rmff/taglib_realmediafile.cpp:37: ../../../../src/metadata/rmff/rmff.h:253:21: error: cannot define or redeclare ' 'RealMedia' does not enclose namespace 'TagLib' class TagLib::AudioProperties; these packages are normally compiled with gcc, but do not want to work with clang. I will be grateful for help in solving the problem! best regards, Oleg Levenets.

Disabling USB hard drive auto mount
by Kate Draven 13 Jun '18

13 Jun '18

Hi people (and others) I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out how to disable the auto mount function for usb hard drives. Every time I connect a HD via a usb HD dock. It auto mounts the drive. Is there anyway to stop this? I think it's udisksd or something. Google was useless regarding how to disable it. I'm asking PCLinuxOS people but I expect I'll get an answer here faster. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kate

why consolekit & policykit & elogind?
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 13 Jun '18

13 Jun '18

Hi all! This question might be a bit OT (and probably totally useless for the systemd-fraction), but ... what is the purpose of need consolekit & policykit & elogind ? I observed consolekit creating hordes of children, resulting in ~ 5% cpu usage. I deleted consolekit & policykit & elogind, restarted the system and found everything still working perfectly. So, what are these good for? Is TDE depending on these in any way? Nik -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA, CIA ...
