Ksnapshot
by phiebie＠drei.at 03 Mar '23

03 Mar '23

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.

skype and pulse audio
by Kate Draven 17 Nov '21

17 Nov '21

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? Kate

I just resubscribed, but the 64$ question is how did I get removed?

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. -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

tdm.log: more than repeated 100.000 messages: "unable to receive message"
by Stefan Krusche 21 Aug '19

21 Aug '19

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

okular is reporting a bug?
by Gene Heskett 01 May '19

01 May '19

Greetings all; okular seems to run ok most of the time, but when run from the cli logs this: gene@coyote:~/linuxcnc/nc_files$ okular okular(1985)/kdecore (KConfigSkeleton) KCoreConfigSkeleton::writeConfig: okular(1985)/kdecore (KConfigSkeleton) KCoreConfigSkeleton::writeConfig: okular(1985)/kdecore (KConfigSkeleton) KCoreConfigSkeleton::writeConfig: okular(1985)/kdecore (KConfigSkeleton) KCoreConfigSkeleton::writeConfig: okular(1985)/kdecore (KConfigSkeleton) KCoreConfigSkeleton::writeConfig: okular(1985)/kdeui (kdelibs) KXMLGUIClient::~KXMLGUIClient: 0x8cef5b0 deleted without having been removed from the factory first. This will leak standalone popupmenus and could lead to crashes. This is my fav pdf reader, and I get 3 to 4 weeks uptime before something goes to pot and I need to reboot this old wheezy install. Connected? IDK, maybe... I have a stretch testing image from the LCNC folks that I put on an old Dell out in the garage as the sacrificial goat, and its running quite well so far, so this wheezy may get retired finally. Sometime in the next week or two if the creek doesn't get too high. :) Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

new camera, digikam can't see it
by Gene Heskett 27 Apr '19

27 Apr '19

Greetings all; The camera is a Canon pssx429is(bk) Otherwise called a PowerShot SX420IS plugged a match usb cable into it, but while camera cts differently with usb power applied, there is zilch logged, either in syslog or dmesg indicating a connection is available. Canon has only drivers using nfc, or wifi, and only for the last 4 versions of (spit) winders. Is there any hope of getting the images out of it short of removing the card and putting it in a reader? I'd rather not do that, so while as a camera it beats my nikon l100 by a country mile, I'll take it back for a refund based on lack of image access by any means under linux. Mounting it in a reader does work, but leaving it in the camera makes buckets more sense. I've taken one pix, so an ls -lR of /media/usb0 gets this: gene@coyote:~$ ls -lR /media/usb0 /media/usb0: total 32 drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 32768 Apr 26 2019 DCIM /media/usb0/DCIM: total 64 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 32768 Apr 26 2019 100___04 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 32768 Apr 26 2019 CANONMSC /media/usb0/DCIM/100___04: total 4704 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4809306 Apr 26 2019 IMG_0001.JPG /media/usb0/DCIM/CANONMSC: total 32 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 108 Apr 26 2019 M0100.CTG gene@coyote:~$ Does this provide any clues as to how to do it with the card still in the camera? Digikams autoscan finds nothing. Thanks for any clues folks. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
