Trinity 14.0.6 preliminary.
Don't know if it is a feature of ksnapshot or a misconfiguration
somewhere from me, but it is getting absolutely annoying what happens.
I have a website, a document or whatsoever on my screen in full
A4-papersize. Now I want a printout of a small part of it. Call
ksnapshot, choose "region" "new snapshot" and then draw a border around
the desired part. Press "print" and then print it. Bull... I get a
print in landscape, useless and even worse not even the original layout
reappears.
Stop ksnapshot, restart it and same procedure with again the same
miserable result.
Stop, restart, same procedure but no actual printing, instead I look
into the printer properties. And there, big surprise, landscape was
marked as to be printed BUT all 4 orientations were grayed out, so I
couldn't change that.
Checked in tdeprint the printersettings, nothing wrong, in "instances"
"settings" all 4 orientations were available and portrait was marked as
to be applied in the default printer.
Checked kprinter and of course the settings of tdeprint were there also
valid.
But then I had an idea. If I selected in ksnapshot a larger part of the
screen, say more than half A4, what would happen?
Yes, some ugly words from me and there it was: portrait was marked but
still all 4 possibilities grayed out.
So ksnapshot decides how it wants to print and doesn't leave the user a
chance to get a result, that he wants. Utterly bull....
Any suggestion, where I could look to alter this behaviour?
Phiebie.

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.

Good day everyone,
I recently noticed tens of thousands of repeated messages of this kind
in /var/log/tdm.log:
unable to receive message
[…]
unable to receive message
XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X
server ":0"
after 97881 requests (97881 known processed) with 185 events
remaining.
(II) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file.
# or:
unable to receive message
twin: Fatal IO error: client killed
krootimage: Fatal IO error: client killed
XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X
server ":0"
after 951 requests (951 known processed) with 6 events remaining.
(II) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file.
where "unable to receive message" is the almost innumerably repeated
part.
I'm running
TDE: R14.0.6 PSB on
Devuan/ascii
Has anyone seen this or any idea where it comes from?
Kind regards,
Stefan
Is there a way to make TDE aware of running non-Trinity applications so that
they can be resurrected after Logout/Login? I have at least one X11-based
application (X2 - The Programmer's Editor) that I use extensively, and it
would be nice if it could remember across Logout/Login events.
I'm wondering if something like a DCOP wrapper might do the job?

Because I now have a high-resolution widescreen monitor, I keep all of my
working icons in vertical panels on the left and right sides of my display to
maximize the amount of vertical space for windows. I like to have my Preview
& Pager applet set to two columns for easy switching between desktops, and
that makes me want to use a Large size panel, but that means that I'm running
out of space for application icons.
Is there any way to make my icons appear two-up, the way the ones in the
System Tray do?
In the attached screenshot, both the right (main) panel and left panel are
Large size. As can be seen, when the left panel is set to Large size,
there's no more room for application icons. If the icons in the left panel
could be displayed the way the ones in the System Tray appear, that would be
very helpful.
N.B. I don't like to use desktop icons, and I don't like using shortcut keys
for switching desktops.

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 just stopped it, reinstalled everything kmail related in a synaptic
search, and restarted it from the tde menu. It immediately reported two
bad indices, for folders emc and spam-hold, and took 32 minutes to scan
those 2 folders and open its gui.
I own as gene:gene with perms from 600 to 644 in the /home/gene/Mail
subdir. It is NOT updating now for 4 days, the files
in /home/gene/Mail/emc/cur to indicate read or important by appending
the
':2,S' or ':2,RS' but it is generating new indices, 2 of them everytime
it tries to scan that folder, so it CAN create/write to that folder.
There are around 60100 messages in that folder, and the indice files are
drwxr-xr-x 5 gene gene 4096 Mar 31 12:08 emc
-rw------- 1 gene gene 44551163 Mar 31 12:08 .emc.index
-rw-r--r-- 1 gene gene 240389 Mar 31 12:08 .emc.index.ids
These 2 files have been nuked to see if a rebuild fixes it, no.
And now everthing kmail, about 8 packages, has been re-installed from the
local archive since the mirror is missing now for several days.
Is there a fix? Or can it be fixed short of installing a stretch
netinstall on a new drive?
Cheers, Gene Heskett

Hi all!
Is there a way to set the workgroup when connecting to a samba server using "konqueror smb://server/" ? By some obscure reason smbclient can connet to the server usen "-W NAMEOFWORKGROUP", but konqueror can only show the publicly anounced shares but cannot connect.
