Hello. I have a pretty serious issue where many applications cannot properly move the cursor to the center of the screen. For normal desktop use this rarely comes up, but I play a lot of video games on my computer (mostly first person) and for mouse input this becomes an inconvenience at best and gamebreaking at worst.
Some examples, results vary:
CS2: usually no issues. Running natively
The Finals: cursor constantly snaps to top left corner when comms wheel is pulled up, can't use pings correctly. Cursor rarely leaves the screen and enters the second screen on the left causing loss of focus.
Minecraft: cursor snaps to the left when opening any menu, even when running using a native JVM
In some particularly nasty cases, this can affect camera controls on some desktop applications like Blender and cause erratic movement. Which slows down my workflow quite a bit.
It seems like what's happening is that the X11 server has one display spanning across both my monitors and since I have a second monitor on the left the center of the X11 canvas is between the two displays. For other desktop environments this hasn't been an issue but in Trinity I find that this causes some weird sideeffects, like how desktop icons are out-of-bounds by default or how X11 thinks my refresh rate is set to 50hz even though it clearly isn't.
What's the quickest workaround to this mouse input issue? Is there any? How do I tell an application/game that the center of my monitor is actually the center of my monitor and not whatever x11 says it is? If that makes any sense.
Forgive me if this is a silly question.

KMAIL keeps putting all of my email in the spam folder when it downloads my
email. And I cant figure out why. Any ideas to why its doing that?
I am having to go into the spam folder and right click on groups of emails and
tell kmail that those emails are not spam, and manually move them to the
inbox.

Can someone give me a clue what this means and how to fix it?
TDE's error messages are VERY unhelpful when trying to fix something. At
least tell me where to look to fix whats broke!

You know,
I had thought about switching to the IMAP protocol due to being able to
switch to any email client I wanted to without having to constantly
IMPORT and EXPORT my data.
That's really the only PITA part, (pardon my expression) about POP.
It just seems like life would be A LOT less stressful without having to
worry about if I backed my email up
or I decide to try a new email client and I don't have to piece together
archive folders from one client to another etc.
But OTOH, I do enjoy that my data is PRIVATE and that my mail provider
can't pull a *YAHOO MAIL * and be like one day
" Eh, you don't need those emails in your archive folder from 2016 /
2017. * POOF DELETED* without even asking the user if its okay.
I know that, a hosted email provider WON'T DO THAT to someone, since we
pay for the product to keep our valuable emails stored for us.
Then again, look at what happened to poor Rackspace last year. Their
Exchange server got hacked and had to pay ransom to get peoples data
back and people
still lost a lot of their emails that they had in the cloud.
Do ya'll think its worth it?

I use a Lenovo X390, MX-Linux 21.3, with one user using xfce (the "original"
DE) and the other using TDE.
When I plug in HDMI (for a beamer, in this case), xfce can easily be set up to
mirror the display.
When I use TDE and connect the Beamer (seen as HDMI-2), TDE automatically
extends my screen to the beamer. xrandr -- output HDMI-2 --same-as eDP1
(where eDP-1 is the internal screen) does mirror the screen, but it remains
extended.
Now if I run "Configure Displays" and select "Enable local Display control for
this session" (which was not activated), I do get the mirroring I am looking
for. But if I click "Apply" the screen turn to psychedelic colours - seems to
be wating for me to validate the choice, what I can't do and anyway would not
as it's unusable. After a while the sceens returns to my desktop, albeit stil
psychedelic, and I must log out / log in to get my desktop back.
So for the time being that means I have to use xfce when I need the beamer.
Anyone knows what's going on and what I should do to mirror my 1920x1080
screen to the HDMI beamer?

Dear TDE users,
This maybe unrelated to TDE. I wonder whether anybody has experience
installing openSUSE 15.5 (along TDE of course) on a Intel SSD 2 TB. I was
thinking about something like this:
https://www.cdw.com/product/wd-blue-sa510-wds200t3b0a-ssd-2-tb-sata-6gb-s/7…
The system is a Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop. If anybody has any other
recommendations for a SSD to be used on a similar laptop, please let me
know. Also, is there really any speed advantage to using the corresponding
mechanical hard drive:
https://www.cdw.com/product/wd-blue-wd20spzx-hard-drive-2-tb-sata-6gb-s/507…
in such a system?
Thanks,
Gianluca

In KMAIL 1.9 for TDE, why can't I insert an image inside of my email?
There is NO option to insert the image inside of the email. Some people might
not like clicking on attachments and would rather you paste them directly
into the body of the email, but with KMAIL 1.9, I noticed that we can't do
that, the only option we have is to attach them???
