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 all,
if you are using Devuan, you may have noticed with the release of R14.0.9
that there are newly available resources generated for Devuan distribution
names in the apt repository. When entering a Trinity repository into the
apt sources list, you no longer need to use equivalent Debian distribution
names. The packages as such remain the same for both Debian and Devuan, as
we still guard to maintain independence from systemd.
See https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/DevuanInstall

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?

In addition to my previous question re startup sounds not sounding all
the time, I have a question regarding Bluetooth.
I am able to use the Bluetooth Manager to connect a pair of
headphones and can hear audio through BT, it sounds excellent. The one
thing I can't get working is the microphone that is built into BT
headphones. I know they are primarily designed for phone calls via a
smartphone, but is it possible to use the BT headphone microphone
through the PC, for example, if you were having an online
Zoom/Skype/Jitsi meeting? The local Linux group has been having virtual
meetings every month and although my Logitech headphones with
microphone boom (USB-connected) work perfectly, I would like to try
wireless/Bluetooth - if it's even possible. I attempted this with the
previous distro (Fedora) and was not successful.
Thanks again.
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.

I have been digging around the TDE documentation, as well as the TDE
center to see if there is a way to change the TDE menu search function
keybinding. I am pretty sure that there is an answer, as there must be
others as well, using a non-US/UK keyboard layout. Any ideas?

Hi all,
I'm launching a series of threads related to the migration of individual
services. The main web server was listed first.
-- Migration status --
The web server is already successfully migrated to the virtual machine on
the tde-box. It was migrated almost unchanged. The changes concerned only:
1. Service alerts - instead of a manually maintained page, the real status
of services is now displayed.
Additional work is required to ensure that the retrieval status of the
services is properly distributed among the individual servers where the
services are active (eg, the mail server for the status of the mailing
list services).
2. API documentation - search is not active, instead of Qt3 documentation
TQt documentation is now published, instead of old KDE documentation, TDE
documentation is published (tdelibs and tdebase).
Further changes will be needed here. However, there will be a need to
discuss how to maintain and generate documentation.
3. Supported RFEs - the page is now static and since we do not currently
have a way to accept monetary donations, this page is suitable for removal
and replacement in a new way sometime in the future.
4. List of active mirrors - now provides a better overview of the status of
mirrors.
-- What needs to be done --
1. Webhook for automatic update when pushing commits to git.
2. New bot for recording history / interaction on IRC and Jabber rooms.
Currently, IRC history is being retrieved from the old Tim's server.
3. There could be some small changes in style - for example, for better
display on mobile devices.
4. The menu could be revised - there some links are almost duplicated -
Documentation × API Docs, some fully duplicated Home/Contact × Support,
Bugs × Support/Bugs, Wiki × Support/Wiki.
5. Some changes in the content.
-- More ideas and suggestions?
Does everything work fine with the web server?
Do you have any other ideas and suggestions?
Cheers

Interesting. In your screenshot the dropdownlist with the selectable soundcards is missing. Here's what I get on my system.
