Hi! Upon clikcing on "Log Out..." I am presented with various choices. I am confused which one correpsonds to hibernate (suspend to disk). Is it "Freeze Computer" or "Suspend Computer"? What I need is the memory to be written to the swap partition of the disk and power turned off. In other words, which one of these calls `systemctl hibernate`, or is a different mechanism used? I had to fiddle with /etc/systemd/sleep.conf and add: HibernateMode=shutdown to make hibernation work correctly. Suspend to RAM (often also called "Sleep") makes the laptop hang, so I need to avoid it (unless I find a fix). Thanks!

konq-plugins-trinity & python

by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp

Hi all! Could anybody tell me where /opt/trinity/share/apps/imagerotation/orient.py and /opt/trinity/share/apps/imagerotation/exif.py are used? The only reference I found was in /opt/trinity/bin/jpegorient which by itself is referenced in /opt/trinity/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/jpegorient.desktop ... but the defined "rotate" operation is not to be found anywhere in konqueror, neither in the context menu of a jpg file nor in the properties dialog. These 4 files are the only reason for python2.7 on my system and I do not see why it's actually needed any more.

information for TDE developers: Debian/Buster/10.10 with backports

by James D Freels

This is not a request for help, but rather, a note of information for the development team; especially for the Debian/Buster version of the code. I am running Debian/Buster/10.10 stable release. Just today, upon encouragement from my son (who is also a Linux advocate), I updated my kernel and nvidia driver to the latest version now offered through the debian/buster-backports portal. This brought the kernel from v4.19 to v5.10, and the nvidia driver from 418.197 to 460.73. This turned out to be a significant improvement for using TDE and my machine in general. In particular, the memory management is much cleaner, and the response of the entire system system much quicker. So far, everything seems to work much better. I might suggest you give this a try. I have been most impressed ! -- James D. Freels, Ph.D., P.E. freelsjd(a)gmail.com 865-457-6742 (landline) 865-919-0320 (cell)
