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.

Hi all,
Has anybody successfully used kmail with anything that requires oauth2 authentication (m$, google, ...)? I am currently in the need to setup a client with outlook365 (what a pest). My plan was to go with https://github.com/simonrob/email-oauth2-proxy - but maybe there is a better way?

Dear TDE users,
I understand this may be off-topic. I was trying to update skype on my
openSUSE Leap 15.4 installation (I know this is no longer officially
supported), but I discovered that skype is no longer provided as RPM, but
only as SNAP.
I have never used SNAP. Can SNAP and RPM coexist in openSUSE Leap? Is that
going to create conflicts?
Is there a way to extract files from the SNAP archive? All I see on the
skype website is a button that says "Install" but not sure whether that
installs directly or first downloads a file?
Thanks!

While searching for mail that had been sent to me in the last day but I had
not received, I discovered that my email provider's spam filters
had "helpfully" moved 231 pieces of mail into its spam folder. (There was
one actual piece of spam.) After downloading the mail, some of the pieces
could not be opened (clicking on them has no effect). I quit kmail and
restarted it, and some of the stuck ones were then openable, but I still have
several that are stubborn.
I suspect that I need to rebuild the indices of my mail folders. How do I do
that?

Hi all!
This Workaround is for all that are plaged by kpdf not able to open encrypted PDFs.
- It decrypts PDFs with the infamouse empty password (that failes on libpoppler)
- It asks for the password for encrypted PDFs and removes the encryption (if password is correct)
How to use:
- Save the attached program to your ~/bin (or wherever you would like it to reside)
- Change the file association for PDF to use this program
- Open some encrypted/not-encrypted PDFs that did not work in plain kpdf.
Commandline: "/where/ever/you/put/it/decrypt-pdf" PDF.pdf ...
TDE specific file URLS like sftp:// don't work, but maybe "somebody" feels the need to add those.
--> KPDF can now handle all PDFs that it could not cope with.
Enjoy.

For a long time I've wondered if there was a way in
TDE to start a console window in a _specific_ desktop.
My Black Belt In Procrastination has kept my from really
pursuing the issue. :-)
So, today I thought to try a Google AI search for the issue.
I had low expectations, because Trinity is (sadly) not so
well known or employed in the wild.
So, with the 'prompt' "trinity TDE start console on specific desktop"
I was gifted with this"
"To start the Trinity Desktop Environment (TDE) console on a specific
desktop, you can use the command "kstart --desktop [desktop number]
[application]" in a terminal window, where "[desktop number]" is the
desired desktop number and "[application]" is the application you want
to launch on that desktop; for example, "kstart --desktop 2 xterm"
would open a terminal window on the second desktop.
....."
There was additional text given besides the above.
Whoopie! I had never learned of/about `kstart` before.
But, also Whoopie! Because AI can probably help with lots of
'ordinary' Trinity issues that someone (newcomers) come up with.

Greets, everybody . . .
Just did my regular apt update apt upgrade run (Debian Trixie) and after
I'd upgraded everything, I was presented with this:
[quote]
Notice: Some sources can be modernized. Run 'apt modernize-sources' to do
so.
[/quote]
I did. There was nothing particularly surprising -- to the extent I could
make sense of it. I was, though, uncharacteristically careful, so:
[quote]
~$ apt modernize-sources
The following files need modernizing:
- /etc/apt/sources.list
- /etc/apt/sources.list.d/brave-browser-release.list
- /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla.list
- /etc/apt/sources.list.d/protonvpn-stable.list
Modernizing will replace .list files with the new .sources format,
add Signed-By values where they can be determined automatically,
and save the old files into .list.bak files.
This command supports the 'signed-by' and 'trusted' options. If you
have specified other options inside [] brackets, please transfer them
manually to the output files; see sources.list(5) for a mapping.
For a simulation, respond N in the following prompt.
Rewrite 4 sources? [Y/n] n
[/quote]
The simulation included, among other things, this:
[quote]
Modernizing /etc/apt/sources.list...
Warning: Could not determine Signed-By for URIs:
http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-sb/, Suites:
testing
# Would write to: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/trinitydesktop.org.sources
# Modernized from /etc/apt/sources.list
Types: deb
URIs: http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-sb/
Suites: testing
Components: deps-r14 main-r14
Signed-By:
[/quote]
The various other entries in /etc/apt/sources.list did appear to be signed.
I should probably know the significance of this, but I don't. More to the
point, I do not want to break anything.
Is there something here that Trinity ought to be including? Alternately, is
it safe to ignore it, with the expectation that my Trinity updates will
continue? Or should I make sure I never ever say yes to modernize-sources?

...how can I get the crash report to GITEA? The crash notification screen
appears to send the report to http://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/, which I
suspect is no longer active?
When ksmserver crashes during shutdown, when the crash notification screen
appears, all of the window frames and gadgets are gone and I'm unable to use
the File Save dialog to save the trace information because the file name
field and buttons are off the bottom of the display (see attached screen
shots).
(I suspect that this crash happens because of the large number of tabs and
windows that Firefox is displaying.)

P.S. The original of this post (now a bit enhanced) that I sent to the
developers' list went unanswered.
