Found a free Book for Qt3
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 02 Jan '23

Hi all! The 2004 book "C++ GUI Programming with Qt 3 (ISBN 0-13-124072-2)" that's mentioned in http://trinitydesktop.org/docs/qt3/how-to-learn-ntqt.html is available for free now at https://www.researchgate.net/publication/245591968_C_GUI_Programming_with_Q… Things to note: - Names changed from "Qt..." to "TQt..." - compiling by hand needs something like "g++ a.cpp $(pkgconf tqt --cflags --libs) -lstdc++" - "qmake -project ..." will not include the TDE folders, so you'll have to add them manually to the *.pro file - When in doubt: http://trinitydesktop.org/docs/qt3/ Nik -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA, CIA ...

Direct shutdown of Block screen (feature request)
by Christian Schmitz 01 Jan '23

01 Jan '23

Hi everyone: First, happy new year. I have a notebook with opensuse tumbleweed and trinity desktop. I configure it to enter on sleep when the lid is closed. I found that several times i open lind and as there is no led or signal that the system is on sleep i press the power button. Actually the system trap the power request, show the unlock screen. But when i write the password the system shutdown. This trigger 2 question/suggest/ideas: 1) The system must allow shutdown even on unlock screen ( or be configurable), is no sense request the password to shutdown the computer because never is required in normal use. ( the login is automatic, and i can shutdown from TDE without password). About software active we can look windows 10 that: Send the shutdown signal and open a "waiting for XXX to close" 2) Normally if the screen is off when the uthe user press power, mean that the user want turn on the computer (only that dont know that already is on). So the user don't want shutdown that is the actual behavior. So i suggest that if the screen is off when the user push the button appear the shutdown options (off, hibernate, suspend ) Best regards Christian -- Be Free, Be Linux
