Okay, so I appear to have internet again, more or less, but now there's
something odd happening with tdenetworkmanager.
For the past day or so, since sometime Sunday evening, I have not been able to
use internet at all. I keep checking the connection, try out the installation
image on a flash drive, just to see if networks are showing up there, but
nothing conclusive.
Then it occurred to me to start tdenetworkmanager as root, and presto! I can
configure it to work, and everything is back to normal; except, I cannot
close down the root version of tdenetworkmanager, then return to the non-root
version. The non-root tdenetworkmanager, just myself as user, still will not
connect. The networks show up, but once I try to connect, they disappear, and
I cannot get on at all.
This does not seem right.
Awhile back I resolved some connectivity issues (been meaning to mention this,
but it's an old thread now); I booted into my backup desktop, xfce, started
xfce as root, set my local network so that I did not connect automatically,
then got out of root, and everything since then ran fine.
I returned to my Trinity desktop, and did not think about xfce again, until I
had to do some reinstallation. Until these past two weeks, and now again the
past day or so, I have not had any network issues.
Everything has worked just fine, until we had flooding in our building, and
internet was out for nearly two weeks past, up until sometime Friday night or
Saturday. Then I had a day or so of my usual internet, then a couple days
past where I have these problems just described above.
And now this: only able to use the tdenetworkmanager as root. Also, it seems I
cannot install or use wicd, which is my usual backup.
Does any of this make any sense? Am I losing my mind, or is it the machines
that are making me crazy?

I'm running 14.0.12 on Ubuntu 20.04. Either by accident or by default, I
have Amarok installed, and it autostarts on every login.
I've never used it, but I might want to someday (I saw a note that it
supports some streaming services), so I don't want to just uninstall it.
But I don't want it wasting RAM and CPU all the time, either
None of the suggestions offered by Google or ChatGPT about autostarting in
Trinity match my filesystem hierarchy. How do I find the file that's
causing it to autostart so I can edit/delete it?
Thanks,
Ran
Seems to me that I've gone through this before. I logged onto
https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/ to create a ticket but there is
no Create or Add New button to do so (not in the home page, not in the Issues
page). I know I've been able to do it in the past. IIRC there was some sort
of setting that had to be altered?

Hi all!
I jus ran into an interesting problem when running inside VirtualBox: I created a installation that works perfectly fine. Then I created a live iso from this installation using refractasnapshot. Booting that iso seads to two instances of dcopserver beeing started --> mouse an keyboard are non operational. When I remove ~/.DCOP* and then "killall dcopserver" then Xorg testarts and I end with a perfectly working TDE.
So, does anybody have any idea what causes dcopseerver to spawn twice? Or better said, why $TDEDIR/bin/dcopserver_shutdown in starttde does leave a running dcopserver instance?

Hi!
I noticed in the log files an error message from dbus concerning trinity's
kdesktop_lock:
dbus-daemon[692]: [system] Rejected: destination has a full message queue,
0 matched rules; type="signal", sender="(unset)" ((bus))
interface="org.freedesktop.DBus" member="NameOwnerChanged" error
name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination="org.freedesktop.DBus"
(uid=1140 pid=1396 comm="/opt/trinity/bin/kdesktop_lock --internal 1394 ")
The error message keeps being repeated every few minutes. The following
processs is running:
> ps aux | grep 1396
gianluca 1396 0.0 0.0 166644 0 ? S 2023 0:00 /opt/trinity/bin/kdesktop_lock --internal 1394
I am not using kdesktop_lock and what does it mean "--internal 1394"?
Is it safe to kill this process and would it then stop the error messages?
Thanks!
Gianluca

Hi Francois,
a user on the mastodon channel was trying to install TDE on PCLinuxOS following the instructions on the TDE site
(https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/PCLinuxOS_Trinity_Repository_Installation_I…).
Step 2 fails complaining that the pkglist file can not be fecthed, but it is indeed reachable from a web browser.
(Failed to fetch http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/rpm/pclinuxos/trinity-r14/RPMS… 404
Not Found)
I did a quick test in a VM and I can replicate the issue.
Maybe something is wrong with the contents of the file? Are you able to take a look?
Thanks and Merry Christmas.
Cheers
Michele
