Localhost problem !
by Baron 18 Sep '19

18 Sep '19

Hi Guys, Running Q4OS, i7 10Gb ram, HP8300 machine. For some reason when I do "http://me@localhost:630/admin" it can take up to 30 minutes before "CUPS 1.7.5 comes up. The message "localhost contacted, waiting for reply" is shown and a spinner icon. Even when it does it can take a similar time to open a page. Than clicking on "Manage Printers" when it does come up says "Printer Error" "Unable to get printer list" But my printer is shown on the Administration page. I can't print anything any more ! Help please. The Q4OS forum where I was pointed to have not helped at all. Thanks in advance everyone. -- Best Regards: Baron

Konqueror mount error
by Thierry de Coulon 11 Sep '19

11 Sep '19

Hello all, Debian Buster with R.14.07 (Development). I have an external SATA to USB enclosure with removable discs. When I slip a disc in and turn it on, I get a Konqueror error (unable to mount this device, see attachment). However, I can mount it with no problem from the command line. My guess is that it's a timing problem, Konqueror trying to mount something that is not yet available, but I don't know what to do. I did not have this with Stretch and "stable" TDE, so it might also ave to do with de "Development" version. Thierry

If you do have it installed, try uninstalling it. Also look at your inode file associations. Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree here but I thought I'd mention it. Good luck, please let us know what you find. Kate Draven

tdm

Hello, How do I add users in the tdm login interface ? For now, only the main user shows up, ignoring the other ones who have to write their identity manually before adding their password. Cannot find that on internet, neither in the tde portal. BRgds JB

Good front end for KVM?
by Michael 06 Sep '19

06 Sep '19

Hi All, What’s everyones favorite front end for KVM? I’m looking to use KVM for several VMs (Win, CentOS6, CentOS7) and was looking for something a bit easier to start out on than raw virt-manager. Host OS: MX Linux 18 [Foundation, Debian Stable 9.6 (Stretch)] Desktop: TDE 14.0.6 Thanks, Michael PS: This was my original question, before I realized, asking about a front end was a better choice. Pretty much only applicable if someone here has used, and liked, Boxes... Was: Figuring out Gnome dependencies? I haven’t used Gnome in more than a decade. I found this Gnome app I’d like to try out: Boxes, Virtualization made simple https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Boxes https://www.openhub.net/p/gnome-boxes and was wondering how to A) find out what its dependencies are and B) how to actually install it. A side excursion, trying to figure out B), lead me to Flatpak[1]. I’ve never heard of it before, anyone have any experience or opinions on it? Mostly I don’t want to end up installing most of Gnome just to try out an app. [1] https://flatpak.org/

Where is the git repo for Preliminary Stable Builds?
by Philip Ashmore 05 Sep '19

05 Sep '19

Hi there. As a Preliminary Stable Builds user I get updates about once a week. apt changelog kate-trinity E: Failed to fetch changelog:/tdebase-trinity.changelog Changelog unavailable for tdebase-trinity=4:14.0.7~pre30-0debian10.0.0+6 Synaptic->(select kate-trinity)-> Get Changelog This change is not coming from a source that supports changelogs. Failed to fetch the changelog for kate-trinity URI was: http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/pool/main-r14/t/tdebase-trinity/kate-t… So being able to examine the git repo to see what changes were made looks like the only option. I may be missing something obvious so apologies in advance if I did. Where is the git repo? Regards, Philip Ashmore
