Hi all,
if you have not seen announcement, R14.0.6 been released!
http://www.trinitydesktop.org/newsentry.php?entry=2019.03.30
Although there are problems with the mirror system that we are trying to
resolve, if you use url pointing to the main redirector in your sources
lists, the packages are available to you despite this problem.
As far as Ubuntu is concerned, the build of packages for Ubuntu 17.04
(Zesty) has been stopped, packages for Ubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic) have been
added. Packages for Ubuntu 19.04 (Disco) are currently only available in
the Preliminary Stable Builds repository. RPM packages and distributions
has also been updated - François thank you!
In earlier announcements you could read that there are updated LiveCDs -
Slax with Trinity, and Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic).
http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity-sb/cdimages/
Now already begun work on a new target R14.0.7. Therefore in the
Preliminary Stable Builds apt repository you can soon expect new
packages. If you used the Preliminary Stable Builds repository only
temporarily, and you prefer to stick on the official final release, it is
now the best time to switch to the official repository. Otherwise, we
will be very happy if you help us in testing the upcoming release.
Thank you for your attention :)
Cheers

Hello,
I often upgrade my Debian-Stretch.
Eeach time, it's mostly packages trinity who are upgraded,
it's good, and less Debian packages.
But, is it normal ?

Hi All,
I’m looking to move all my user data, config’s, and profiles (for KMail,
Konsole, LibreOffice, Calibre, Zim, ...) from my old machine to the new
machine.
Old: Ubuntu 14.04
New: MX-18
I tried a wholesale replacement of the entire user-dir, which did not go
well... Too many non-TDE menu differences, the entire TDE menu disappeared,
and the only applet left in the Panel was the quick launcher. So, I’m going
for the move ‘just the guts’ approach...
I can track down all the somewhat random application dirs like ~/.gimp
and “~/Calibre Library” as well as the regular Documents/Download type dirs.
But, will any of TDE’s desktop configuration type files[1] be overwritten by
replacing these directories wholesale from the old system?
~/.trinity/share
~/.local/share
~/.config
~/.kde/share [2]
Are there any other directories that have user type information that I’m
missing? And, are there any directories that need to be excluded (as it’d
break the new system’s TDE if overwritten)?
Thanks,
Michael
[1] Things like menus, panels, and desktop settings files.
[2] Oddly ~/.kde has recently written to files in it, who knew stuff is still
being stuck there... I don’t have KDE installed, and have only booted TDE for
at least the last 3 years; all these (and probably a few more) have been
modified in the last month:
.kde/share/config/kfilemodulerc
.kde/share/config/kdeglobals
.kde/share/config/startkdeinitlockrc
.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments/

Hi Slávek,
I tried the TDE R14.0.6 / Ubuntu 18.04 LiveCD. It works well for testing
but the "Install" does not work.
When clicking "install", nothing happens.
I tried the command from the icon properties in a terminal: nothing
happens, no error, nothing.
Something is missing I think.

Pascal
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.
Leslie
Hello to everybody,
I assume you all noticed that maintenance release TDE R14.0.6 was
officially released on March 30th. Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic) LiveCD with TDE
has been updated to include TDE R14.0.6. You can download ISO files from:
https://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity-sb/cdimages/ubuntu/bionic/

Hi all!
I try to get a transparent background with conky, but somehow I need dirty tricks to make it going:
When I start conky from .xinitrc ("sleep 15; conky -d"), the background is blue and stays blue when TDE is running. Conky writes text on that blue background, but never erases it, so it gets unreadable after some time. Switching to another desktop and back again does not change this. The behaviour is the same without delay, so that TDE starts in parallel and twin comes up after conky.
When I start conky from .trinity/Autostart/<something>.desktop - which calls only "sleep 15; conky -d", then the background is black and stays black, conky erases it before writing. Switching to another desktop and back again gives a pseudo-transparent background in conky. When twin comes up after conky, then the background of conky is as above (blue without erase).
I have put the second way including switching desktops into a file that's called from TDE autostart, so things basicly work.
But what I do not understand: what is the difference from calling conky from .xinitrc to calling it from .trinity/Autostart? And what chages, if twin comes up before/after conky? I'm quite sure that this is TDE specific, 'cause when running fvwm I do not observe this. And it looks like it is OS agnostic, I see the same thing happen on FreeBSD, too.

Hi Guys,
I've been trying without any success to remove multiple partitions

Thanks in advance.

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.
