Is Bluetooth free?
by lee892533＠gmail.com 09 Jan '25

09 Jan '25

Yes, the songs are transmitted to your headphones, but that's over a paired Bluetooth connection between the headphone and the phone. And there's no cost to that. You only pay for the data transmitted to your smart device over the phone company's network by way of using the app. https://spacebarcounter.org

Error - Kicker; Malformed URL; system:/
by Felix Miata 21 Nov '23

21 Nov '23

I see this error popup on various installations. The instant one is a 32bit Bookworm freshly upgraded from Bullseye with 14.0.12. Bullseye does it too. The trigger is left clicking on the menu starter. On those where it ever occurs, it only happens once. Trying again after dismissing the popup always works. Anyone familiar with it, what to do to eliminate it? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.

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.

Screensavers not working
by Hunter Ellett 24 Jul '22

24 Jul '22

I've had this issue for quite some time now, but for some reason the screensavers in TDE do not work. I can preview them and set them, but as soon as the screensaver starts it shows my wallpaper. I have had this problem on the two main OSes I use, FreeBSD and Devuan/Debian. Does anyone have the same problem, or did, and is there a solution? Thanks

How to make taskbar icons fully opaque
by jakolineplayer＠tutanota.com 20 Jul '22

20 Jul '22

Hey, the taskbar icons for minimized windows becomes less opaque, then upon maximizing them the opacity is restored to full, I understand this works as an indicator but now for accessibility reasons I want my icons to be always fully visible to me and always fully opaque. Any help?

fish: vs. sftp:
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 15 Jul '22

15 Jul '22

Hi all! I just noticed that on daedalus sftp:/...-URLs do not work any more. Konqueror is stuck with a rotating circle and eventually times out. fish:/...-URLs work, but calculating the disk size of remote directories is kind of buggy, e.g. 22GB are counted as 9GB. Did somebody see this, too? Nik -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA, CIA ...

Re: Preserving current layout on keyboard reconnect

I never use bluetooth (never saw this work correctly) but I do use a KVM so I'd guess the keyboard is also on and off. It seems TDE can use keyboard settings from the system, but I always set my keyboard in TCC -> Regional & accessibility -> Keyboard Layout and never had problems. Don't know if that can help, but as you asked for "any" tip :) Thierry

Preserving current layout on keyboard reconnect
by Maciej Pilichowski 08 Jul '22

08 Jul '22

Hello all, After switching from traditional USB keyboard to BT one I noticed, that after each reconnect the keyboard layout is reset to hardware default. Meaning I have two layouts -- Polish and Russian -- after a while when not using keyboard, it sleeps (to save power), and on reconnect I have US layout (which is not on the list). For comparison XFCE also does this for a split of second, but then warms up and changes layout to the correct one. Is there some trick I could use to get back my layout automatically (for now I manually switch layout twice per reconnect)? Thank you in advance for any tips. Cheers, -- http://przypadkopis.wordpress.com/
