Sound mixer problem after upgrade to buster/R14.0.7
by Nick Koretsky 01 Jan '20

01 Jan '20

Hi! After i upgraded to buster two weeks ago, sound mixer applet stopped saving/reading its settings, so every time i boot my pc i am presented with "Select Mixer" and have to set channels again. There is kmix_panelapplet_0evyw8vqwb0hupdm6thw_rc in ~/.trinity/share/config with the timestamp of update and simingly correct values, but its not read or something? -- Nick Koretsky (nick.koretsky(a)gmail.com)

Re: [trinity-users] TDE on Raspbian?

For Raspbian Buster Lite (https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/) you'd need Preliminary Stable Builds (https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Preliminary_Stable_Builds, http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-sb/dists/). I'm not sure the specifics, but something like: 1) Add the Debian Trinity Repository sources (2 lines) deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-sb raspbian-buster deps-r14 main-r14 deb-src http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-sb raspbian-buster deps-r14 main-r14 2) Add the GPG signing key wget http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-keyring.deb sudo dpkg -i trinity-keyring.deb

TDE on Raspbian?
by Janek Stolarek 01 Jan '20

01 Jan '20

Hi all, I got myself the latest Raspberry Pi 4 for Christmas. It's a pretty powerful machine advertised as a fully-fledged desktop PC and with 4 1.5GHz cores in the CPU and 4GB of RAM it delivers on that promise. The primary operating system on the Pi is Raspbian, a distribution directly based on Debian, running an LXDE desktop environment. I was wondering how much effort would it take to bring TDE to the Pi? I'm guessing that architecture would be the primary obstacle (Pi is based on ARM), but would it pose much of a challenge? Raspberry Pi certainly seems like a potent market for TDE. Maybe it is worth the effort of having an ARM release for Raspbian? Maybe this is a good opportunity to bring in new users? I wonder what is the devs' take on this? Janek

trouble with panel icons staying put
by James D Freels 23 Dec '19

23 Dec '19

Hello TDE users/developers: I am using debian/buster now since it's release. I am also using the "preliminary stable builds" of TDE using the following location: deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity-sb buster deps-r14 main-r14 I am having 3 problems. The first was with TDM, and that has been resolved (http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::16492). I think that my 2nd and 3rd problem may be related, so I will describe them both together in this request for help. Panel icons moving: My panel is on the bottom centered. However, it doesn't matter where it is located, the icons will not stay put. It seems that the last panel I move, continues to follow my mouse when it is active within the panel. This drives me absolutely crazy. I have tried the "lock panels" switch, and it makes no difference. How do I fix this ? Screen saver/locker not starting automatically: The (screen saver/lock screen) will not start automatically as it should. No matter what choice I make for the saver (I prefer blank, but have tried others), if I try to have it start automatically, it will not start. I can manually start the lock screen, and it works as expected, and unlocks with the password. I have also tried disabling the screen saver provided by TDE, and then use another screen saver from the distribution (such as xscreensaver), and it works fine. Of course, I prefer to use the TDE screensaver. How can I fix this ? I use the commercial nvidia driver installed with debian/buster packages. I have also tried removing the debian-supplied nvidia drivers, and used the nvidia drivers .run installer obtained directly from nvidia. Makes no difference in these 2 issues. I am not sure these 2 issues are related. Thanks again. Jim Freels, PhD (retired)

some buglist for the 14.0.6 release
by Mio 23 Dec '19

23 Dec '19

Hello guys. I've installed a PClinuxOS distro with TDE 14.0.6 recently and collected some buglist while exploring it. High possibility that some bugs isn't actual now (or just not bugs but feature lol) so i decided to sent it via mail first. Here is it: [konqueror] no file previews for ntfs-mounted disks [konqueror] duplicated items in the "System" tab sometimes (https://files.catbox.moe/6csxx6.png) [konqueror] stops generating previews if user opens a file [konqueror] may return "Memory allocation failed" when omage opens in embedded preview [kuickshow] shows broken image from framebuffer instead of opened file [kmplayer] seek bar didn't work correctly (click on the random time, mplayer will skip time == one step) [kmplayer] press on the "Play" button when playback is paused will stop it (possible it's not a bug but kinda annoying) [compositor] settings do not apply after click on "Apply" button, re-enabling is needed [compositor] incorrect calculation of the shadow position, i was not able to make it centered [compositor] may apply transparency to the windows even if this option is disabled [compositor] "apply only for decorations" option does not work [compositor] several re-enablings will result in gui(twin?) hang [compositor] possibly didn't work correctly when system goes in suspend [compositor] -- overall opinion: quite buggy and unusable -- [lockscreen] when exiting from suspend, lockscreen may appear above current desktop, not clean background [keyboard config] some hotkeys didn't work (like Alt+PrtSc) [keyboard config] hotkey assign window is laggy, if opened too long - twin will hang [keyboard config] kb layout switch didn't work with embedded switcher (known bug) [kkbswitch] strange font in tray icon [twin] may hang if some messy window appeared (example: MPUI frontend under wine, set "Compact mode", open a file, pause playback, apply window size by frame size and then make bottom toolbar appear-dissapear. Frame will distort and twin will hang after some time) [kmix] -- all bugs when tray regulator was set to pulseaudio output -- [kmix] tray regulator not adjusting on wheel scroll; my soundcard master output volume (in mixer window) is adjusted instead. [kmix] soundcard master output volume adjusts from 52 to 100% (not sure if trinity related though) [kmix] tray regulator didn't apply settings to the output it was set to (i can set 0% in the pulseaudio output tab but with tray regulator i can get the sound 100% and pa output in mixer will be still 0%) [kweather] no actual info for Rostov-on-Don(RU), shows data from 2018 [showfoto] crash after click on the Colors tab (TDECRSH-eea4c1d-5260ea9-a67aab6-5e9e698-843a94c-8d10fec-2036aa0) [amarok] crashes on playback activation, possibly after recent xine-lib update (PClinuxOS, no debug info available) [arts] samplerate change affects event sounds tempo (old bug, from KDE) [tde menu] often lose mouse focus (affects search bar in classic mode and tabs in kickoff mode) [desktop(?)] if Menu bar at screen top is enable, it appears with the additional unused space (https://files.catbox.moe/wcewuq.png) [gtk3-wrapper] looks like needs to update theme schemes (applying TDE theme to the GTK3 apps completely brokes theming of those) [tdm(?)] gtk3 apps that needed root access didn't start after successful auth when tdm is set as DM. [tdm] "scale & crop setting" didn't work for wallpaper, picture will be still just "scale"d. But picture will be resized as needed directly after login [dbus rule script] "at console" rule is deprecated and didn't work, affects power options for generic users [mailing lists] http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::16489 Cannot decode string with wide characters at /usr/lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/perl/5.24/Encode.pm line 202. Also one question, for what i can't find the answer: is there option that can replace full paths with short ones in the windows headers and taskbar (file:///media/dsk/docs..., Konqueror, KWrite and others)?
