When is the last time you rebooted X or the entire computer? I'd reboot the computer. The F5 thing happens after a large update (at least in my exp). Try a reboot. Kate

Good afternoon from Spain, Recently, a friend send me a link to an issue in the Nix packages repositories on GitHub. It seems someone proposed to the maintainers to package TDE in Nix. The link to the issue is https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/108967. -- Regards, Echedey, Lopez Romero () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments

I don't want my computer to turn off when it is unattended. How do I turn off 'Energy Star (DPMS)'? Clearing the Box in the GUI does not work.

Konqueror & FAT32
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 16 Jan '21

16 Jan '21

Hi all! I just found that after my latest updates to 14.0.10 I lost the "Delete" funtionality in konqueror. When I do a right click on at file on a FAT32 usb thumbdrive, then the context menu pops up with the "Delete" entry greyed out. Pressing "<DEL>"-key consequently des not delete the file nor move it to the thrashcan. Pressing "<shift>+<DEL>" deletes the file. Does somebody else see this, too? Nik -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA, CIA ...

libjasper1 missing
by James D Freels 16 Jan '21

16 Jan '21

Hello TDE users ! I am testing installing TDE, or separate TDE packages such as konqueror-trinity, on my chromebook/crostini/linux vm. Upon the initial install (apt-get install kdesktop-trinity), it is short a package called libjasper1. I check on my reference linux desktop with TDE installed and running fine. Sure enough, it has a package called libjasper1 installed. However, if I try to reinstall it just to get the package file to use on the chromebook, it is no longer available. So, either libjasper1 is used in TDE and it is not available anymore under debian/buster, or the package needed by TDE needs to be obtained from some other place. Where do we get libjasper1 now? Is this a TDE bug ? -- James D. Freels, Ph.D., P.E. freelsjd(a)gmail.com 865-457-6742 (landline) 865-919-0320 (cell)

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Dear Trinitarians, Decided to move away from Chrome, Brave seems to be working, but Kmail is opening links in Chrome. So.

What fun! Leslie --
