Klipper does not activate most recent selection
by Darrell Anderson 30 Mar '25

30 Mar '25

When I copy text the data is pulled into Klipper. Klipper does not activate that selection. I always have to pop open the Klipper menu and manually select that recent selection copy. I have tried keeping the two different buffers in sync and not. When I manually select the most recent selection from the popup menu, Klipper pastes the selection as expected. The next time I copy a different selection Klipper again "forgets" which selection is most recent. My usage of any clipboard manager is the most recent selection is always remembered and activated as selected for pasting. Klipper is not doing this. I do not remember Klipper behaving this way in the past. I do not see anything awry in klipperrc. Has something changed with Klipper behavior? Thanks.

Slow responding sound?
by Darrell Anderson 28 Mar '25

28 Mar '25

I have sounds configured for NumLock and CapsLock. When I toggle either key, the sound does not happen for close to two seconds. Quite a delay. Where might I start debugging? [TDE 14.1.2]

krdc mouse pointer
by Darrell Anderson 27 Mar '25

27 Mar '25

When I use krdc I see only a tiny black square for the mouse pointer. Is this normal/expected? I also have to explicitly use -s and -c. There do not seem to be any related permanent settings in krdcrc. Normal? Thanks.

Akregator
by Darrell Anderson 24 Mar '25

24 Mar '25

For some years I have been using the QuiteRss feed reader. I am testing Akregator with some hope of migrating. I do not want or need any related cookie storage. When I launch Akregator, $TDEHOME/share/apps/kcookiejar/cookies is created. Can cookies be fully disabled? Or is creating the cookie jar a coding artifact of calling tdelibs kcookiejar but Akregator does not actually store cookies? I can't find the word cookie anywhere in Akregator code but that might be a function that lies in the khtml backend rather than Akregator. The internal browser seems broken? All of the pages opened in an Akregator tab are void of any style sheet or page formatting. Is something needed to be configured in Konqueror? When deleting a feed from the list, the respective feeds.opml entry is deleted but the Archive mk4 is not. A bug? Probably not a bug but an oddity. When Akregator loads the default feeds on first launch, the TDE feeds include feeds from 2010 (3.5.13 is launched)? Probably fixable if the upstream feed is updated/edited? Thanks.

More Akregator observations
by Darrell Anderson 24 Mar '25

24 Mar '25

* When launching there is no focus anywhere. I have to always manually select 'All Feeds'. I would prefer the focus be 'All Feeds' so I can start browsing the Article pane. * When closing Akregator I don't see a way to delete all feeds I have read. Upon the next launch all of the previous feeds remain in the Article pane. * Seems I have to manually delete all read feeds in the Article pane, but that requires several mouse clicks and scrolling to select all read feeds and manually delete. * There is no shortcut I can find to select all feeds in the Article pane. I tried what I thought was an intuitive Ctrl+A and nothing happened. I found no related shortcut when browsing the Shortcuts dialog. "Right-clicking" in the Article pane does not provide any 'Select All' option.

[off topic] sorry
by ajh-valmer 24 Mar '25

Hello, Sorry for this off topic. I'am under Debian Bookworm, processor Intel 64 bits AMD 64. My graphic card is a Nvidia (nvidia-detect) : "NVIDIA Corporation GK208B [GeForce GT 710] (rev a1) Your card is supported by the "Tesla 470 drivers" series. It is recommended to install the nvidia-tesla-470-driver". Until the kernel linux-headers-6.1.0-31-amd64 & linux-image-6.1.0-31-amd64, evrything worked perfectly. The transition to kernel 6.1.0-32 went badly after an "apt upgrade" or apt install linux-headers-6.1.0-32-amd64 & linux-image-6.1.0-32-amd64 : ================ "Errors were encountered while processing: linux-headers-6.1.0-32-amd64 E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)". ================ Now, the NVIDIA driver no longer works and many bugs appears. These two commands do not resolve anything : # dpkg --configure -a # apt-get install -f Of course tde-trinity is not responsible. If you have an idea, that would help me enormously Thanks in advance. Cheers, André

konqueror sidebar new behaviour since 14.1.3?
by Rody 23 Mar '25

23 Mar '25

One can hide the konqueror sidebar by dragging the sidebar to the left border and/or by pressing F9. In previous versions prior to 14.1.3 the sidebar would remain hidden for new konqueror windows after doing this. However, this behaviour seems to have changed in 14.1.3. The sidebar now returns in new konqueror windows and there seems to be no way to keep it hidden? Rody

Are there any userchrome themes for Firefox/Librewolf that fit the look of TDE? I'd like to know a few so my browser UI doesn't look out of place. Thanks
