Is there a way to not have borders around windows? Or at least the side
vertical borders?
I am using TDE Classic Style.
When I am reading an online article in a web browser, often I "fling"
the mouse pointer to the left edge of the screen to keep the pointer out
of the way of reading text. I use the mouse scroll wheel to move down
the page.
With TDE I can't do that because when the pointer hovers over that left
edge window border the effect is to kill scrolling. I have to
continually bump the mouse pointer to the right to get off the border.
I do not experience this in other desktop environments. Memory muscle
and habits are difficult to change. So I am thinking this is a property
of twin.
Thanks.

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.

How is the R14.1.1 Konqueror sorting options supposed to function?
With the following options:
* View->View Mode->Tree View
* View->Show Hidden Files->enabled
* View->Sort->Group Directories First->enabled
* View: ->Sort->Group Hidden First->disabled
Nothing happens when toggling Group Hidden First. Hidden directories always list before non hidden directories. I expect directories such as ~/Desktop, ~/Pictures, etc to list before ~/.cache, ~/.config, ~/.trinity, etc.
Tested with a fresh profile.
Thanks.
Hello,
I upgrade my system (Bookworm) many times and Trinity is not upgraded since a
long time (september 2023).
My "sources.list" is correct (no error) :
Is it normal ?
How to know his Trinity version ?
Cheers,
André
So... I had to roll back an install that I broke, but now that I am back to a "working" barebones install, I have to install TDE. But when trying to install any TDE app, I receive an error that the dependency "libtiff.so.5()(64-bit)" is needed but not provided. This is on OpenSUSE tumbleweed. Anyone else having this issue when updating/installing TDE apps?
Now I got bitten by the same problem - and got solution (at least for devuan) - so this might be interesting for Bill :)
It turned out that the compination of "apparmor" plus "pulseaudio" made networkmanager go kind of numb. It would not connect to my wifi for ever. Retrying did not change anything nor did turning the wifi device on/off change anything. Last entry in syslog was always "wlan0: associated", but it looked like ip address was received.
Now removing "apparmor" increased the chace of getting ip adresses via dhcp to ~ 50%.
After removing pulseaudio and pulseaudio-modules-bluetooth the rate is back to normal aka 100%. Note: I had pulseaudio to connect to bluetooth speakers and my problems begun after installing it.
At last I got the speakers working with "bluealsa" --> kmix is not confused with the "pulseaudio" device sneeking in as first coundcard.

I don't know if this is totally selfish and/or solipsistic of me, but I would
like to have a way to download *all* available packages appropriate to my
system.
If there is some command that will do this, that will work, as I can pick and
choose on my own. A tool like aptoncd would be better, but I can find
anything like it any more. Best thing about images created with aptoncd is
that apt treats them exactly like repositories, so I don't need to cobble
together self-styled hacks and use dpkg, but can just depend or apt to find
the right combination of packages and dependencies.
Debian still offers, I believe, extra CD or DVD images of the extra packages
in their repositories. In addition to the installation images, there are
usually extra discs, 1, 2, 3 and 4, containing extra packages. I used to
search all over Devuan to find the same, but now it seems that they, too,
have caught up, and offer disc images of extras. Or perhaps I have only
recently discovered where they keep them hidden?
My reason for this request is related to my recent previous posts: sometimes I
find myself in a remote place, or in a crazy situation, where there is no
internet access, or where -- such as recently -- flooding or some other
disaster has knocked out internet. Yet, while I have no internet, I still
need to have a working computer for other things that I do offline; and now,
suddenly, my machine gives me problems, and I need to do a system
reinstallation, or at least to install some new and unfamiliar packages.
Thanks for any help,
Bill
Hey Trinity Folks.
I'm having trouble getting xdg to play nicely with the file associations and
settings I have for Trinity. While TDE applications follow them just fine,
non-TDE programs don't seem to. That's fine, I tweaked xdg myself. The issue
is that something happened and now non-TDE applications don't follow my "Open
http and https URLs in an application based on the contents of the URL" (in
TDE Components > Default Applications > Web Browser) anymore. Now when I
click an http URL directly to an image or video, it opens up in my web
browser.
I'm not really sure what's changed because it was working fine before. My
initial thoughts are to find out how TDE opens "in an application based on
the contents" and just assign it to xdg but I'm unsure of what that is or
where to find it.
Thanks.

Another thing I do from time to time is to change my host name, as I must
share a network with many other people. The administrators of this network
insist on using a ridiculously insecure password, which doubtless could be
cracked by a script kiddie in a few minutes; moreover, the password has never
been changed in at least 7 or 8 years. Myself and others have recommended
changing the password, but nothing happens.
After I did a little messing with that program that Nik suggested, nmtui, I
wondered what else I might use it to do. I like these stone tools; once one
has figured out the basics, then at least there is the possibility of
controlling the machine.
Even before I started this thread -- or the previous thread which spawned it,
regarding my network problems, or tdenetworkmanager -- I was wondering about
this problem of the hostname. Is there a way to change my hostname easily,
without reinstalling my system? This (nmtui) seems like the right tool for
the job; although of course, when running Linux, there are sure to be dozens
of others that do the same or similar.
These are probably stupid questions, and a thousand people out there can
answer it: but the man pages do not cover these possibilities.
I want to know, first, if one ought to disconnect from internet (or to
connect) when changing the hostname like this. It seems to me that trying to
change the hostname on a live connection may cause problems. On the other
hand, when I am doing a fresh installation, I must set the hostname on a live
connection, but then it is a new, unnamed connection.
Second, should I run nmtui (or similar tool) as root in order to change my
hostname? When I tried it out earlier, it seemed like it could do nothing
with my connection unless I was running as root; but then, before my fresh
installation, I could not use tdenetworkmanager, could not use internet at
all, except as root. Can I, in ordinary circumstances, change my hostname
without first becoming root?
After I change my host name (that is, after a fresh installation), I seem to
have no problems for a while. What I want is to be able to change the
hostname periodically, without doing a complete new installation.
Also, I block pings with my firewall, that kind of thing, but eventually these
problems start up again, because some people out there (or their automated
cracking scripts) apparently have nothing better to do than to search for
vulnerabilities in other people's machines.
All ideas or suggestions are welcome.
Bill
