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

KPDF asks for password on some PDFs

by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp

Hi all! I just found that KPDF is (again) asking for a password on non-password-protected PDFs and fails to open the PDF if no password is given. The PDF preview in konqueror is fine. I have attached a PDF that triggers the behaviour on my system (KPDF 14.2.0~pre65-0debian13.0.0+3~a). Could somebody please verify?

Darkness :) Remaster of devuan testing + TDE + dark theme for AMD64

by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp

Hi all! I just uploaded my last devuan testing + TDE 14.2 remaster - this time with a dark theme (including kate) - and it finally got a name (darkness). I would be interested if you run into issues with it. Thread on devuan: https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=6850 ISO: https://samhain.at/devuan_tde/darkness-20240918.iso SHA256: https://samhain.at/devuan_tde/darkness-20240918.iso.sh256 SHA256: 97c6c6fbf3d49bfc9b9231f586a1143da8761cfe9657dcb72676793c3b693856 Background is done by myself, so if anybody wants to include it in TDE (or highres versions of my deviantart.com/zwieblum gallery) just drop me a note. Enjoy :) Nik -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA, CIA ...

What packages are needed for video and pdf thumbnails? My installed packages: $ pacman -Q | grep "tde" mtdev 1.1.7-1 tde-amarok 14.1.2-1 tde-arts 14.1.2-1 tde-avahi-tqt 14.1.2-1 tde-dbus-1-tqt 14.1.2-1 tde-krename 14.1.2-1 tde-libart-lgpl 14.1.2-1 tde-tdebase 14.1.2-1 tde-tdegames 14.1.2-1 tde-tdelibs 14.1.2-1 tde-tqt3 14.1.2-1 tde-tqtinterface 14.1.2-1 Thank you very much.

Nano for Donations

by mike＠m1k3s.com

I guess this is mainly for Slávek and Michele, but would you consider adding Nano (nano.org) as a donation option on the TDE site? I'd much prefer to use that over Bitcoin as it's more energy efficient, instant, and has no fees. I've used it for years without issue. I personally use and prefer https://nault.cc as a non-custodial wallet but there are others to choose from. https://blocklattice.io is a good block explorer if you're interested in seeing transactions. Thanks, Mike

Kaffeine fails to load XineParts

by J Leslie Turriff

I finally got sound working after upgrading to openSUSE Leap 15.6 (Yay), but when I start Kaffeine to listen to some music, it says it can't load XineParts (unYay). I've attached the message that Kaffeine displays. It's not too helpful. In openSUSE Leap 15.6, sound is now controlled by PipeWire instead of PulseAudio. Could this have anything to do with my issue?

matrixOS

by jacobheinrich＠hotmail.com

Hi there everyone! Might as well join the party eh? I have created a live Debian ISO that currently tracks Debian Bookworm with the stable Trinity repository. It is based off live-build with a small modified selection of packages for a smooth experience. Any changes and updates will be pushed through the matrixOS repo, and I will take package requests for backports and such. I will also update the ISO to include the new Trinity release when that launches. What does it offer? - Fully working live experience - Calamares installer - Ready to go out of the box with a wide selection of software included - Our favorite desktop of choice - A mostly vanilla Trinity configuration I would really appreciate it if you wanted to check it out! https://www.matrixos.ca

TDE vs LXDE, LXQT and XFCE

by anguriamelone＠libero.it

Hi to everyone! A simple question: how much is lightweight TDE in comparison with LXDE, LXQT and XFCE? Is it, perhaps, a middleweight? If it can be of interest, here is a discussion about ''lightness''. https://blog.lxde.org/2016/10/04/benchm … t-vs-xfce/ https://blog.lxde.org/2016/10/04/benchmark-memory-usage-lxqt-desktop-enviro… Thanks for the attention and have a nice evening/day. Kind regards. Gian

I don't see how it's a TDE issue, but . . .

by dep

Hi, everybody . . . This is a weird one. It's under Debian testing, but it happened under Tapeworm, too. With TDE testing. Running LibreOffice 24.8.2.1. For close to 15 years, I've had "Insert hyperlink" in my RMB menu in text fields. With the updates (I think specifically of LibreOffice) but cannot be absolutely sure, it's still there. But clicking on it spawns a dialog box for character formatting. So I deleted it and replaced it. Same thing. Renamed ~/.config/libreoffice and reinstalled LibreOffice itself. Added "Insert hyperlink" to menu. Same thing. So I tred it on my notebook, also running testing/testing. Same thing. It is easier to configure the Linux kernel than it is to configure LibreOffice, because LibreOffice tries to allow for everything, no matter how unlikely, and gives it all equal weight. For instance, if you go to Tools > Customize > Context Menus, you have a choice of 49(!) menus you can edit. The fun part is that none of the menu names is reflected in the places where you would find those menus. Nor are the things controlled by them accessible. I'd rename the character formatting thing if I could find it, and see what happens then. But can't find the frigging thing. I'd use AbiWord, but it, like KWord and Calligra, seem to be pretty much abandoned, and in the case of the latter two developed by people who do not know what a word processor is for. -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://ofb.biz/author/dep/
